Where: An area suitable for camping near Magi Lake. Notes: Private for Flishe and Kimoth. Taelisian doesn't come on Ramath-Lehi anymore, so I didn't see any point including Midet in this (as she's even told me). Also, I am not happy with this introduction, but that might just be me. </td></tr></table> The morning air was cool and calm, despite the reported warmth of the quarter, and the three-day weekend was freedom to the students of Janardan Academy, particularly as it was the first weekend of Tria, during which there would be many vacations anyway. The sun shone through gaps in the trees, the cool, clear water of the lake sparkling in its light. It was a beautiful spot, and for some reason, the spot that six ‘dragons had chosen to go camping at. Sighing and stepping away from the large tent that would house the male ‘dragons, the female tent having already been set up, was the vibrant green form of Takonas Demtriat. Running a hand through his orange hair, highlighted with neon pink, the seventeen-year-old ‘dragon observed his work with blue eyes. It wasn’t perfect, but he felt it was a better job than what might have occurred if Lysane had been there – his friend wasn’t exactly one to sit around and read instructions, rather one to leap head first into things, but it was always enjoyable to watch. Perhaps if Mich had been there, it would have been better, but Takonas was one of two that had arrived first, and the other that had joined him had left for the lake itself not too long ago. Hoping that no one would start snooping around and try to steal their belongings, the ‘dragon left his bag inside the male tent and left to join the other at the lake. Brushing down his denim jeans, unusually flared at the ends, and straightening his open vest jacket, he lowered himself to the ground beside the rather small feydragon that was sat there, her purple eyes dancing as she watched the light on the lake. White fur covered her body, her ears and long, thin tail tipped in black, her tail flame tinted the colours that tinted her long hair, which were pale green, pale pink, pale lavender and pale icy blue. Her arms were bare, revealing the turn from white to grey to black from the elbow downwards towards her hands. The simple strap top that she wore was lilac in colouring, whilst the long, flowing skirt was brown, decorated with cream stitching. Her insect wings were resting down against her back, and she was singing to herself, ignoring the much taller ‘dragon beside her for now. After a moment, Kokuteju looked back at the male ‘dragon with the notched, dorsal fin ears and added, <span style='color:#CCCCFF'>“When do you think the others will get here?"</span> Before Takonas could give her an answer, a set of familiar voices marked the arrival of their friends.
<span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class='ooc'><tr><td>I'm just bringing in Mich at teh moment. As Kalli's new, I'd like to give her a proper entrace on her own, so the girls can introduce her.</td></tr></table> There was a rustling of trees, as another male 'dragon poked out his head. Pushing the glasses up his nose, Mich slipped out of the trees, waving and grinning, yelling, <span style='color:green'>"Hello there, mateys!"</span> His messy green hair wavered about as he walked, tiny ponytail bobbing up and down. He wore his usual clothes - a baggy pair of beige shorts and a yellow chequered shirt.. However, perched on Mich's back, wa sthe piggest backpack ever seen. It was canvas green, and a distinct clunking could be heard. Under one of his arms was what was presumed his rolled up sleeping bag, and under another - of course - a book. Anyone could give rough guess that his bag was loaded with books too. It was amazing what Mich could sometimes read in a day. With a stretch, he dropped his bags on the ground beside his friends, and grinned, <span style='color:green'>"So... where's camp?"</span>
Blue eyes looked upwards and, seeing the elder 'dragon, Takonas shifted from his lying position into a seated one, grinning at his friend. The vibrant green dragon, his body marked with interesting black swirls, stretched and eyed the large bag with interest. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"Oh, Mich,"</span> Said highlighter 'dragon, shaking his head. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"The entire point of this vacation was to relax."</span> After another pause, Takonas added, <span style='color:#66FF33'>"But then again, you relax using your books, so I guess it doesn't matter."</span> Grinning at his friend and giving Kokuteju a knowing look, he continued, <span style='color:#66FF33'>"The campsite is over there. Why don't you go and show him, 'Ku?"</span> The white thill blinked, brought out of her trance, and she turned her head to see Mich, at which point she grinned. Quickly catching up on the conversation, she nodded and lept to her feet, barely reaching three foor in height. <span style='color:#CCCCFF'>"Sure!"</span> She said, fluttering over to Mich with the use of her insect wings. <span style='color:#CCCCFF'>"This way, Mich!"</span>
Mich grinned at the small 'dragon as he bent down to pick up his bags again, and beamed, saying, <span style='color:green'>"Lead on, Koku!"</span> As he followed the young feydragon, he watched her elegant wings flutter. A slow blush rose to his cheeks as he watched the wings flutter, but quickly shook it off. Arriving in tteh camp, Mich stretched, and sat on a nearby tree-stump, and ste his bags down with a thud. Sighing with relief, he looked up at Koku, smiling. <span style='color:green'>"So, has Lys or Yoshi arrived yet?"</span>
Mich's question to Koku was actually answered by the sound of two two arguing teenagers. Well, it wasn't so much of an argument as a debate. <span style='color:0099CC'>"Sayoshi, I seriously doubt your mental stability at times."</span> the first said, clearly from his sing-song voice, Lysane Fusajtcoll. <span style='color:CC6699'>"My mental state?! That's rich coming from the king of booze benders and getting in trouble."</span> the second was quieter, softer, but had a tone of confidence, stemming from the fact that she was at last free to do as she pleased. No overpowering step-brother watching her every move. <span style='color:0099CC'>"Ah yes, point duly taken into consideration."</span> replied the blue pendragon at her side, arms laden with the female's belongings, as Lysane was ever the gentleman. Sayoshi raised an eyebrow and looked up through her icy blue eyes, observing her friend, whom was not known to back down easily. Though, in all honestly, they were more or less the same height, so she didn't have to look far. <span style='color:CC6699'>"Okay, that was too easy."</span> She objected, folding her arms. <span style='color:CC6699'>"Why didn't you object with a passion, Mister It's Never My Fault?"</span> Lysane grinned and shrugged his shoulders, enchanting green eyes dancing behind the curtain of thick black hair in his face. <span style='color:0099CC'>"I guess it's just because WE'RE ON VACATION!"</span> And with that, he promptly thrust the pile into Sayoshi's chest and ran off towards where the others were gathered. The blonde-haired half anubi could only watch in amusement and wonder for a moment, before shaking her head and following at a much more sensible pace. <span style='color:CC6699'>"Sayoshi and Lysane reporting for duty."</span> she grinned when she finally approached Konas. <span style='color:CC6699'>"Or at least, Sayoshi. I think Lysane's brain's back at the Academy."</span> She sighed slightly and slipped off her backpack, holding it in one hand and the other case in the other. She watched her friend, the bright blue one, in his excitement, as he dashed about like a young child, black and pink hair flying madly. It was a wonder he could actually see.
Smiling as she heard the two voices, the purple-eyed thill looked at Mich and nodded. <span style='color:#CCCCFF'>"There's your answer,"</span> She replied, before darting off towards the tents. Gesturing at the one on the right hand side, she said, <span style='color:#CCCCFF'>"That's the tent for the boys. The other one's for us girls."</span> The white feydragon smiled at her male friend whilst she waited for him to deposit his bags. Hearing Sayoshi's comment, Takonas flung one hand to his chest in a dramatic pose and gave an extremely over-dramatic gasp of shock. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"Lysane has a brain?"</span> He asked, in humour. He gave a quick grin to Lysane to apologize and then smiled at Yoshi. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"Good to have you on board!"</span>
<span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class='ooc'><tr><td>Okay, here comes Kalli!</td></tr></table> Mich laughed at the comment about Lysane not having a brain, and stood up, stretching, and then opened his book. He then slipped into teh boy's tent, obviously set on reading. All of a sudden, there was some other rustling from the bushes around camp. Mich poked his head out again, ears twitching. Odd - everyone was here and accounted for. Who could that be... There was a click as something sprung out of teh bushes, and Mich was blinded by the flash. He blinked, and shook his head. Soon everything came back into focus. The girl that stood at the edge of camp looked like an anubi, with tan fur, with her arms elbows down, legs knees down, tip of her jackal-like tail and tall ears covered in a coat of chocolate brown fur. She had short black hair, ending and curling at her shoulders, with a very long fringe covering her eyes. She brushed this away to reveal her drak brown eyes. In her hair was a golden hairband and clips. Her clothing, to sya the least, was... different. She wore a black sleevesless t-shirt, black cropped combats, boots, and, the jewel on the crown, a pink tutu. In her hands, she held a camera, and stood up straight, looking at the picture on her digital camera. <span style='color:orange'>"Ha! That's a nice picture. You're Mike, right?"</span> she said. Mich blinked, before his face and neck became stiff and he slowly turned his head at Koku and Yoshi. <span style='color:green'>"Girls? Who is this?"</span>
<span style='color:CC6699'>"Of course he has a brain."</span> Yoshi replied, rolling her eyes.<span style='color:CC6699'>"Any fool can online shop nowadays."</span> She giggled slightly, and then looked up to see Mich, looking rather confused, and behind him that pink tutued 'dragon named Kalli, the newest edition to the girls next door. She smiled and decided to put Mich out of his misery by introducing her to the gang. <span style='color:CC6699'>"Mich, Konas, Lys, this is Kalli, our new roomate. And Kalli, these are Mich, Konas and Lys."</span> As the femme performed the routine introductions, she gestured back and fourth at each of the group in turn, including Lysane, whom had returned from inspecting the male tent with a bit of a put-out expression. <span style='color:0099CC'>"You put them up already?"</span> he asked, with a slight whine in his voice. <span style='color:0099CC'>"Konas, that's half the fun of the night already gone!"</span> he stamped a foot in mock irritation and then noticed his name being mentioned to the new girl. He grinned and waved, giving a low mock bow.
The vibrant green arden eyed the newest addition to the female half of their friendship group, before raising an eyebrow at her peculiar clothing. After a moment, he nodded and smiled at her, a little hesitant due to his normally shy nature around those that he did not know well. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"I'm Takonas,"</span> He said, verifying which one he was. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"Feel free to call me Konas, however. Only my mother calls me Takonas, and that's only if I've done something for her to be particularly concerned or angry about."</span> Watching Lysane whine, the male 'dragon grinned somewhat evilly to himself and stepped towards both the tents. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"Fine,"</span> He said, and pulled the pegs loose, the tents collapsing in on themselves. <span style='color:#66FF33'>"There's half the fun back!"</span> He stuck his tongue out them, grinning evilly.
The sheets lay in a huddle on the ground, until, where the boys tent had sat, something began to writhe under the covers, roaring, <span style='color:green'>"TAKONAS!"</span> Kalli then began to giggle, and kicked the wriggling shape with her boot. The shape winced, and then the cover pulled back. Slowly, Mich's head emerged from the cover, hair sticking out in every possible angle, glasses lying lopsided on his nose. He slowly turned his head around to face Takonas, eyes narrowed. <span style='color:green'>"I'll kill you, Konas, AS SOON AS I GET OUT OF THIS THING!"</span> he roared, wrestling with the sheets. Kalli was now in fits of laughter.
Watching the infuriated 'dragon wrestle with the tent, Takonas smiled innocently and pointed at his younger friend, screaming, <span style='color:#66FF33'>"LYSANE MADE ME DO IT!"</span> before quickly running off. Mich would extract his revenge somehow, and Takonas really didn't want to be there to face the elder 'dragon's wrath. Although, he was now laughing too much to care and had stopped short after about thirty seconds of running and collapsed on the ground in hysterics. Kokuteju, meanwhile, was too busy laughing to care about Mich, or what had happened to her own things (considering Takonas had pulled down the girls' tent too), or the fact that Takonas had just collapsed in hysterics. After a moment, she sobred up, grabbed part of the tent and start to pull it free from Mich.
With the tent now hauled off him, Mich grunted furiously, attempting to fix his hair and glasses. Glasses were alright, but his hair still sat up at every possible angle. He sighed, when a smile crossed his lips. Even he tried to stiffle a giggle. <span style='color:green'>"I'm still gonna kill you two, though,"</span> he chuckled, <span style='color:green'>"But, in any case... are we gonna put these tents up again or what?</span>" <span style='color:orange'>"I'd say tents, first,"</span> Kalli giggled, taking a snapshot of Mich. Mich, however, glared at the newcomer. Bending down on his knees he began to start pitching up the tent. His amber eyes swivled around, and he hissed at Kokuteju. <span style='color:green'>"Why didn't you warn us that you had a new roommate coming? Or did she just invite herself?"</span>
