    Nyuko lay against the cold stone of the fishing dock, her hands laced around her long red hair. She began to sing, in a happy mood, to the fishes, to the flies, to all the creatures who surrounded her on such a beautiful morning. The wind swept through the trees, cooling her from the hot sun. It was a perfect morning to paint, so she reached for her book. The book with the leather bindings, it contained all of her recent works of art. It was her most precious object, for she carried it everywhere.

    She fiddled with her brushes, taking long strokes of forest green, drawing the symbol marked into her back. It was the symbol of life, of death and most of all, the dragon.

    She noticed a shadow creeping behind, coming closer by the second. She turned her head to face the unknown.
     
  2. A black pendragon with dark red swirly tribal markings all over her body bent down and looked at the 'dragon before her with a friendly smile on her face. Her chest length red hair hung infront of her shoulders and tangled around her fin like ears. With her webbed paws on her knees she started to speak,

    <span style='color:darkred'>Hello there. I haven't seen you around before, are you new to these parts? </span>

    the wingless 'dragon sat down on the cold ground next to the red-haired 'dragon. she offered her hand to the femme,

    <span style='color:darkred'>My name Is Nudek, and you are?</span>

    <table class=ooc><tr><td>Wow... i wasn't really sure what to post... Ha Ha ^^</td></tr></table>
     
  3. She smiled at the dragon who stood before.

    "I am Nyuko, and indeed, I am new to the area" she explained, adding the final touches to her painting. She pulled back her hair into a tie, avoiding the wind at all costs. Her hands remained on the leather bindings of her book, the one and only treasure in her life since the accident.
     
  4. Nudek caught a glimpse of the painting and instantly she wanted to see more. She smiled over Nyuko's shoulder, fawning over her drawings.

    <span style='color:darkred'>Wow! That is so pretty! Do you have any more with you... Any that i could see?</span>

    She asked. With her tail twitching with anticipation and from the erge to go swimming. She knew that is she even attempted to swim she would probably get caught up in one of the fishing nets...

  5. She smiled, flipping the pages of her book, showing the dragon her many sketches, drawings and paintings. There was a sun surrounded by the ocean, a dragon sitting on a rock near the beach, a forest and many others, each detailed and filled with beauty. Closing the book she took one last look at the water before standing. "Here" she said, handing the dragon her most recent painting. It would be an honor to finally have someone who appreciated her work. She was how many people say, starving artist. She had little money, but her love for life made the difference.

    <span style='color:olive'>Hishema was walking silently through the forest when she heard some activity near the water. She walked without a sound, unconsciously, because she liked being alone, so if no one heard her no one would interact with her.

    But this time she was curious, although she fainted around overly energetic 'dragons, and was very shy around normal 'dragons, these 'dragons seemed friendly.

    She stopped on the trail by an opening to where the two 'dragons were, and watched. From where she stood she could see a beautiful painting and gasped at the beauty of it.

    She opened her backpack and opened her sketchbook, her drawings were but lowly stribbles in comparison.</span>

    <span style='color:green'>I'm going to regret this....</span>

    <span style='color:olive'>She worked up what little courage she had and walked into the opening, clenching her backpack with a deadly grip, scared out of her mind of these new 'dragons</span>
     
  7. Even though Nudek's ears were of a merdragon, she could hear very well above water. She turn to look at Ryuko and then smiled as she looked behind her, hearing the pendragon even before she walked into the clearing.

    <span style='color:darkred'>Well hello there. You seemed nervous to talk to us so i didn't bother to say that i knew you were there...</span>

    Nudek smiled sweatly at the shy 'dragon. with her dark red eyes gazing at the sketchbook clasped in the 'dragons hands and the backpack in the other the smile on her face brightened.

    <span style='color:darkred'>Another artist maybe?</span>

    she thought to herself. To see already a great artist today, maybe she might get to witness another with such talents that she could never possess...
     
  8. Nyuko smiled at the approaching dragon. She bowed, slightly, as she always did in the company of someone new. Perhaps she was another artist? They appeared to gather in the area around the summer months.

    "Hello there!" she called, leaning over the dock, trying to wash her already stained pallet. Suddenly, a splash, followed by a shrill scream, could be heared through the entire east coast. Nyuko was standing in water up to her chest, soaked, a look of anger on her face.
     
  9. <span style='color:olive'>Hishema, giggled silently at the clumsy act of this 'dragon.

    She walked up to the painting and was awestruck.

    Opening her sketchbook, still retaining the deathgrip on her backpack she held her book in a way that allowed the others to see her skribbles</span>

    BIC [Back in Character]

    Nudek had a shocked look on her face as she looked down at her fallen friend. She bent over the edge and and gave a paw out to her new friend, looking around for the notepad...

    <span style='color:darkred'>Here, let me help you up! </span>

    She spotted the painting book atill in tact and on safely perched on the dock. It was open and slightly wet at the fringes of the pages.
     
  11. Nyuku took the paw of her new friend, climbing aboard the dock, water dripping from every inch of her body. She saw her book, wet at the edges, lying on the ground.

    "Please take the book, as I will make it soaked with my hands" she said, almost in a joking nature. Hopefully there was a hotel nearby, where she could purchase a room for very little money, and get changed. She scanned the area around the dock, her small bags still in tact, a surprize that they hadn't been stolen.

    "Perhaps we should find a hotel? It's getting rather late and I am freezing!" she said, smiling.

Then everyone will get to post as much as everyone else and people wont post at the same time and things liek that. We don't want to have to edite our posts ^^</td></tr></table>

    Nudek nodded and at the request and picked up the saggy edged book. If they found an afordable hotel then thay could set it on the window and let it dry but the pages might have to come out of the book in order to make sure that the pages don't get stuck together. She thought for a moment, this was one of her first times actually visiting here, she had traveled through this place and had stayed at a fairly cheap Inn. She remembered cleary where it was and smiled to herself. she turned and pointed off in the opposite direction then the clumped trees.

    <span style='color:darkred'> I know where there is a cheap Inn. It has afordable prices and has semi good food. At least its edable is what i usualy say about Inn's, 'If theres no edable food then you'lll probably find mutant animals in your beds in the morning.' And trust me its not fun to wake up with something creeping around the corner that looks unfriendly.</span>

    She turned to the creature that stood by them with her backpack close to her and smiled.

    <span style='color:darkred'> Would you like to come? I can afford to pay for you if you don't have and extra money.</span>

    She never even let her answer before she remembered something and ran off towards the Inn.

    <span style='color:darkred'> The Inn gets will get crowded soon, If you've got wings then i bet you can keep up with me, if you prefere running then hurry! I'm a fast runner! </span>

    Nudek slowed her pace down slightly to let them catch up if they were going to. She was their Lead to the Inn, she coulnd't just runn off without letting them know where it is first.

    <span style='color:olive'>Hishema was wary about there people but remembering her sisters advice about trying to interact with people she decided to follow them. She opened her jacket and held it away from her back to allow her wings to go through the holes.</span>

    <span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span>
    <table class=ooc><tr><td>Her wings are normally wrapped around her body, under her arms.</td></tr></table>


    <span style='color:olive'>She took off and, seeing the inn Nudek was refering to, launched off towards it, beating Nudek easily.</span>

    Nyuku smiled, she would have to catch up later.

    "I will catch up, for I am a very slow dragon" she said, handing Nudek her share of the Inn fee. She had not shared with them before, but her wings were useless. They were too small, as was most of her long, slender body. She shrugged and began to walk into the distance.

    She wondered if they knew the actual real meaning to the paintings she had done in her book, the one with the leather bindings. The pictures were all the same, containing one hidden figuire. The red dragon with the black hair, the one from her dream. The one called Kazan. A demon had hidden inside his soul, as told by her mother before she died. It was her destiny to find the demon and destroy him.

    She shook her head, as the thoughts of the demon emptied. There was going to be a storm, she could feel it in her very bones.

    Another pendragon watched them approach the inn. "Well, well, well, look who's here." He said to nudek, his arms crossed and wings unfolded, leaning against the outside of the inn. "I see you brought more friends, and this time you didn't tackle me to the ground." He said, remembering the incident in Aurius.

    Nudek stoped for a split second, looked at him funny and then put at hand up to his telling him to wait a minute. She walked inside the Inn and reserved the last place still open in the Inn. She walked out with a scowl on her face. She looked at Hishema and shook her head.

    <span style='color:darkred'>Well i reserved a room for us all... but man! that man had to make one heck of a big deal about me taking his last room! and when did the old Inn keeper get replaced!? </span>

    She had rather like the old dragon that used to work at this place. He had been a kind dragon...

    She shrugged and sigh seeing Nyuku taking her time walking. Nudek smiled and sat down on the ground. She rubbed her throught a bit, it had been hard not to lose her temper witht he man at the Inn. She had to swallow every last remark she wished to make to him!
     
  17. <span style='color:olive'>Hishema cowered away, slighty, from Nudek when she looked at her angrily. She received a key from Nudek and proceeded to the room. She sat on the bed and tried to draw again, failing once more. With a sigh, she lay back and started reading one of the books her sister gave her.</span>
     
  18. She continued walking at her own valued pace. Something was not right, she could feel it in her bones. Her brother was changing, and it worried her.

    She began to run up towards the hotel, reaching the room of which they had recieved. She then placed her objects on the side of the bed and decided to take a slight rest to clear her mind.
     
  19. Adun waited outside, wondering when nudek would come down. "At least it's not like last time where she tackled me to the ground." He said, leaning against the wall of the inn, closing his eyes.

    <table class=ooc><tr><td>OMG! ADUN! I remember! Nudek HAD met Adun before and then she tackled him while she was hiding in a big old' abandoned storage thing... after she had gotten into a rumble at the bar and then kicked the guys buts anyways ^^ ehehehe.. I remember... And you know that she IS outside ^^ (at least I am sure thatÂ’s what that is from anyways ^^ )</td></tr></table>


    Nudek looked up at the figure who had addressed her before. She raised a brow at him and then a smile brightened her face.

    <span style='color:red'>Adun?! </span>

    She hadn't seen him in ages! it seemed like forever since she had seen an old familiar face. She realized what he had meant by tackling him to the ground before. She chuckled at the memory and ruffled her hand through her hair, something she did when slightly embarrassed. that day had been one hell of a racket! Getting into fights with the men at the bar and then having to find somewhere to stay without letting them in. The men had stuck around their shelter for quite sometime before giving up on breaking in.
