    Shimara's white peltage soon turned a slight shade of brown as the light breeze of spring uplifted specks of sand upon her. As an animal breeder apprentice, She was used to varying weather but this was a little too different for her. She walked alone in the desert, occasionally stopping and searching around for a tiny shimmer of shade in the vast emptiness. She knew she shouldn't be there, not with the blaring heat and her warm fur, and knew she could never fly away if she needed too.

    She continued to walk, blankly unknowning that was she was wandering in a loop of circles. Wiping some sweat off her forehead, She shook her head attempting to cool down. She took the hand-made bottle from out of her belt and drank the last sip of water.

    In the distance, She saw a pool of water. She shook her head again. <span style='color:blue'>'Great. Now I'm seeing things...'</span> Walking on towards the water, just incase it was not just a mirage, and turning her head every so often to check for trees.

    She let out a loud scream, eyes closed. The heat was getting to her. Running towards the shade of a small palm tree, Her burnt white feet pounded along the dusty sand in her panic. She arrived at the small tree and imediately collapsed on the floor beneath it. She began to close her eyes, knowing in her heart if she slept now she would never leave.

    <span style='color:blue'>'Don't let me sleep...'</span> She whispered, strugling to hold her eyes open. Help would be here soon. Wouldn't it?
     
  2. Walking along the desert floor comes a large figure cloaked in a brown cape. He peers through the thin slit in the eye part of it and glares upon the vast sands as he continues. A sudden up roar of wind blows into him, causing sand to collect in his fur as he walked. The fire like coat of fur began to change slightly from the sands, but yet the male just shook it off as he continued to walk. Shuffles his wings a bit then folds them back once more as comes across the image of a palm tree way out in the middle of nowhere. Glares a bit looking upon it and notices a form that was laying beneath the shade that the little sprout provided. Dashes off into the direction of the tree and spreads his wings forth. BLasts up into the air and in a few short moments lands hard against the ground near the tree. Folds his wings back and walks over to the form that was lying there against the sand then leans down along side it extending a hand to turn it over.

    Looks in surprise to see that it was another 'dragon. But why would she be wandering so far out in the middle of nowhere? He questioned as he lifted the female up into his arms then reaches into his belt then draws a bottle of water. Opens it and leans the female's head back a bit then slowly pours a small amount of water into her mouth.
     
  3. *She scaned the ground searching for a rare desert herb.When she spied a pair of pendragons under a palm tree.What the heck were they doing out there in the middle of no where? Maybe she could help she could help she flew down besides them*

    "Are you alright?"
     
  4. She knew it, somehow deep within her. Someone was there, who had actually noticed her. But sleeping was so good...No, She thought, Don't sleep. She slowly opened her right eye, to see the two 'dragons in a hazed view. Her blue eyes fixed on them. Sitting up, She coughed up a small amount of sand onto her lap.

    <span style='color:blue'>Thank you...uh...</span> She said, looking at the two. <span style='color:blue'>Who are you?</span>

    O.o.C | Yeah...It's short o.0;; I have...stuff...to do...
     
  5. Goja Glares upon her from through his cloth face cover then looks over his shoulder at hte newcomer. Turns his eyes back to the female then nods to her once more. "I'm Goja...and I was crossing the desert as well. But then I saw you lying here as if you was getting ready to die so I can to the so called rescue." Chuckles lightly beneath his face cover then looks over his shoulder back to the other female. Glares at her a bit then rises up to his feet, towering over her slightly. "And who might you be, lady 'dragon?" Goja asked as he looked upon her then turns his eyes away from her to the horizon.
     
  6. <span style='color:blue'>I'm Shimara, Goja...Thank you for saving me...</span> She sits up properably now, and looks out to the horizon with him. <span style='color:blue'>Well...Apart from just crossing...was there any other reason you've crossed through this...deathtrap?</span> She awaited an answer, wiping her warm forehead.
     
  7. *She did not apercate the glaring especily after trying to help:angry:" I'm Alika."She said cooly."I was looking for herbs when I saw you two."She nelt down next to the other female and pulled an herb from her traval bag."Here this will help."She said handing her the herbs."What are you doing out here anyway?"*
     
  8. Goja looks to the female once more then back out to the horizon. "Well, Shimara I was heading off in search of work in the next town over this hellish desert." Goja looks back to the other female then smirks. "Well, there is barely anything out here to collect? Why aren't you in the rainforest or something?" He spoke looking to her.
     
  9. "Beacuse I'm looking for a special herd it only grows in the desert and should be ready to be picked about this time."She looks up at him."Why do you walk when you can fly its much faster."
     
  10. "I enjoy the walk thank you. And I never use my wings unless I'm going someplace that is out of my reach." He spoke as he looked to her then turned his eyes back to Shimara. Reaches the bottle of water out to her slowly then nods as he does. "Here drink some of this, it will make you feel better." He spoke to her softly. Draws the cloth from his face showing his cat like features as he turns his greenish eyes back out to the horizon.
     
  11. Shimara took the drink and began to, well, drink it. She looked up at the two.

    <span style='color:blue'>You guys are lucky...</span>She said <span style='color:blue'>,I can't fly at all yet...I have wings, but they'd never carry me for more than two minutes...</span>

    She nodded at the two. <span style='color:blue'>Thanks again. I really do appreciate your help.</span> She thought for a minute. <span style='color:blue'>I wonder how I'll get out of here...</span>
     
  12. Goja looks back down at her slowly then nods slightly to her. "Well, you can always tag along with me. I'll lead you out of here without any trouble...", he spoke turning his eyes back up to an approaching sandstorm. Licks his lips lightly and glares at it. Shakes his head and sighs opening his wings forth as he does. Looks back down at the other female then reaches to his side drawing forth a cloth for Shimara to wear on her face. "Use this to cover your face. These sands can be deadly." He spoke as he kneeled back down turning his wings about Shimara. Wraps his mask back about his face then places a set of goggles about his eyes then nods to her. "There is no way to out run it so...so just holdon."
     
  13. *She looks to the sand storm and fliches alittle.She has never done this before she hoped it would work.Standing infront of the other two she faces the storm. Consetrating hard, flames of blue energy gathered around her and created a barrier infront of them. She grined her teeth as the storm hit she didn't know how long she could keep it up her powers were very untrained, but she had to try*
