The cold moon hung low and full illuminating barren branches like skeletal limbs twisted and distorted by ages of agony. The cemetery usually quiet and peaceful was beset by a low fog, perfect cover for the small dragoness slinking amongst the tombs. Her white scales and the fog gave her a ghostly appearance. She was busy digging up the fresh grave of a human woman, claws tearing through the soft earth quickly. She could smell the meat. Soon her claws met with the cheap wood of a poor person's casket. Wood was soon splintered into useless chunks and the corpse was exposed. Dead less than two days and still fresh from the ground being frozen from winter. Shiva Gripped the cadaver by the neck with surprisingly strong jaws and hauled it out of the hole and onto the grass. Soon she was gorging on fresh human meat. she fumed thinking of that scum blue dragon who insisted she was her mother. Hah! Her mother was the queen of the misty mountain range, the scourge of the valley! She snorted and began chewing on an arm, looking up as she heard booted footfalls. She scowled as she took stock of the huge demonic male she found now in front of her. He grinned down, not a nice thing at all. "So, you're Icer's new cub, Hm?" She snorted again? That scum is not my mother!" Oziendis seemed interested by the little dragons denial of Icer. "Scum, you say' So it would be a fair assumption that you dislike her?" Shiva gulped a chunk of arm down."An understatement is more like it." Oz Smiled. "Perhaps we can help each other then." He knelt and began whispering into Shiva's ear. Slowly a wicked smile grew as she nodded. "Yes that would work nicely." "Good." Oz yanked the other arm off the corpse and took a bite himself." Mmm, not bad. You have good taste, little dragon." With that he stood and walked away without another word, keeping the arm with him. Shiva was thoughtful as she ate, thinking of finally getting revenge for Icer trying to humiliate her like some common hatchling. She'd show her.....

Oziendis strolled leisurely through the ghostly illuminated graveyard gnawing on the human arm he'd taken from the young dragon's meal of choice, a fresh cadaver. He ripped a chunk of cold flesh from the humorous and without chewing, swallowed the gooey bloody hunk whole. He didn't bother to even wipe his mouth clean. Bits of skin clung amidst the spittle and other unidentifiable crust rimming his mouth. He chuckled to himself once the small dragon was out of range. He would have them both. The little one and Icer. The crippled runt would make a good belt. And if Icer posed too much of a problem he'd make her into a new pair of pants, and perhaps boots if there was enough hide left over. He licked his nasty crusted cracked lips in anticipation. It had been too long since he had tasted dragon meat. He was looking forward to this. He must be patient now, above all else patient. This would take careful timing and planning. He idly tossed aside the arm into the brush where several small somethings could be heard squabbling over it. He had an agenda this night. There was a demon he had heard of that he planned on approaching. Kithar, or so he'd heard. He wasn't positive the name was right but he was sure with proper.......motivation, people could be very helpful before they met with their horrible demise. He had only rumors to go on but finding another demon would not be so difficult after all he had a certain advantage. A smile spread as he contemplated his dark plan and he felt positive that this time success would be his. That troublesome little dragon would be no more, and he would be fashionable in his new Icer hide pants. He vanished into the darkness in search of what he hoped would prove to be an ally.....

Waking from her slumber, talons clicked lightly upon the stone floor of the lair as the dragoness was checking on her young ones, Solaria, Zyloh, Othala...

Someone was missing. A rumble given realizing that Shiva had disappeared again. The young one was quite stubborn, even to her.

Slipping down the pathway, past the waterfall, wings unfurled as ice blue eyes scanned the lake first.

Not even a ripple.

Nostrils flared, trying to catch a faint scent upon the wind.

Vey faint, but it was there. Pushing herself off the ledge, she caught an updraft, gliding along, searching for their missing daughter.

Icer1978: ::Wingbeats sounded as the dragon glided overhead, serpentine neck arched as ice blue eyes scanned the grounds below.:: Shiva: ::The small dragoness was stiiting on the edge of the water. lifting her snoutshe sniffed the air, smelling Icer. She smiled to herself a nasty secretive smile, and did not move:: Icer1978: ::nostrils took in her daughter's scent, and she wheeled around, hovering in place as she glared down at Shiva.:; Shiva: ::Idly she shot a claw into the water and scooped out a fish and tossed it onto the bank watching it suffocate:: Icer1978: :;Eyes snapped to the fish then, she hadn't eatten in a few days, landing nearby.:; Shiva: ::She sighed she hated the idea but for a time she would have to "play nice" With Icer. With a snort she batted the fish back into the water just before it got to the point of death and it swam gratefully away:: Shiva: ::Awwww did Icer want the fish' She quelled a smirk:: Icer1978: ::A snort, sliiinking toward her daughter, tailtip giving the little misbehaver a swat to the haunch.:; [ Shiva: ::she winced slightly and eyed the larger dragon mostly defiantly but a glint then her expression changed and she assumed a contrite posture.

She wanted to gag bit controlled herself:: Icer1978: Just make sure it doesn't happen again.., ::diving below the lake's surface, chasing after a school of fish.:; Shiva: ::she didn't respond.

Shiva: that's disgusting, mother Icer1978: Whats disgusting" Shiva: what you just ate Icer1978: Fish", this is one of our main food sources. Shiva: Ewww.... Icer1978: You'll get used to it, :;rubling again:;, maybe you'd like wyvern better. Shiva: ::Looks doubtful:: I don't know... Shiva: ::Letting her tail hang in the water:: Icer1978: :;Rising, she moved toward the lair, just for a moment, soon returning with a wyvern haunch, dropping it in front of her daughter.:; Shiva: ::She sniffed, then began salivatinearing into it with zest::g, it smelled edible...She tooka bite.

Icer1978: ::Rumbling softly, her own hunger sated for the time being.:; Shiva: ::blinks finding herselfr in the middle of the lake with a splash::

Inside alicia was looking down at her tracking device in hopes of being in range of that unicorn to get a signal, and alas she was not. Pulling up to the shore and putting her van in park.

Finding a large flat rock she takes a seat and opens said box to expose nummy crosiants,kiesh, and a few pecan danishes. Setting the box down upon the rock she moves to Shiva: ::A poor swan got too close and was killed and leaft to float. fish were freaking out and swining the hell away:: alicia long: grab her thermos of coffee from the van and then reclaim her seat.

Oziendis frowned deeply as one of his spies reported to him that Shiva seemed to be warming up too much to Icer. He scowled and set out to find the little pest. He approached the glade but did not reveal himself, seeing for himself what his spy had told him was true. The nervous little creature that looked much like a bush baby cowered. "I told you, master! See she will betray you!" Oziendis snarled and snatched the creature, squeezing it in one huge hand. The little spy shrieked then gasped for air and soon was choking as the like was literally squeezed out of him. Within a moment it was dead. Oziendis stuffed the dead informant into his belt intending to eat him later. waste not, want not, after all. She slid back into the trees keeping well hidden from any prying eyes and returned to his lair. He would approach Shiva next time she was alone and "remind" her of her their bargain. even if it meant beating her senseless he would get his point across and have two for the price of one. He chuckled and once in his cavernous lair, inspected his "toys." Shiva would be sure to appreciate their finer...........points. He chuckled nastily. Icer and Moon both had been introduced to his tools, now Shiva would. And then she would obey. If she resisted, well he'd been working on a new collar. Something that was beautiful but would control the wearer utterly. Something not likely to get attention from others. He was a genius, he knew. A master of evil, indeed for now things would go his way. Oh yes....soon

Oziendis Nightstalker:::He watched for several moments, lips twisted into a wicked smile before revealing himself to those gathered:: Azzure-Starlight: There was a soft snort from Star at that. She'd probably smack him If he had bit her....Not Moan. "Meh Wouldn't give you the pleasure of hearing one." Icer1978: ::Shiva was soundly slumbering that left the rest of the donuts, till a certain stench filled her nostrils, a low growl rising in her throat.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:::He strolled leisurely into the open, his face twisted into an ever-presesnt smirk:: Welll....Hello. ShadowShimmerscale: She twisted to face the new person, sword drawn fully and held loosely in her right hand. "Who the hell are you." A low growl as she moved between him and Icer. She wasn't sure why, but she knew that he was bad, and that she had to protect the blue Azzure-Starlight: "Ah....Hi?" Star blinked, before the pup gave a whimper, and scra,mbled to hide behind Star's legs. Icer1978: :;Tail tip twitched and writhed, ice blue eyes narrowed upon the demon, she was keeping herself between Oz and Shiva.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:What a pleasure to meet again, Icer. And who is this" ::indicating the sleeping Shiva:: Oziendis Nightstalker:Another morsel of your family, perhaps" Icer1978: That is none of your concern.., demon.., :;hissed out.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:What, don't feel very friendly' Tsk. A shame. I thought you reputed to be such a nice beast. ShadowShimmerscale: She remained between Icer and the now claimed demon. "Family is not a morsel to anyone." An angry snarl in her voice Oziendis Nightstalker:::He shot a scathing look to Shadow, something in those eyes would cause blood to run cold. :: I did not adress you, morsel Icer1978: ::Naturally, she'd not even use the nasty's name, wings flaring.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:Didn't mommy teach you manners" Tsk tsk. I suppose not. such a rude little thing. ::He shifted slightly, muscles rippling with even the slightest twitch, built like a tank he was:: Azzure-Starlight: Icy blue eyes moved to watch him, before the pup scrambled off more than likely for the Lair. " Didn't some one teach you not to bug others?" Star said softly, watching him now... ShadowShimmerscale: She growled to that sensation, if anything, she stood straighter, her form shifted into an offensive one. "I am a morsel for no one." Her anger evident. She tensed to lunge, Oziendis Nightstalker:Perhaps I will have to teach you, Hm' ::Something in his voice suggestted it was something unspeakable he had in mind:: ShadowShimmerscale: Blue-black eyes stared back in defiance. "Haha. Like you could." She was bluffing, Icer would probably be able to hear it, but otherwise.. Oziendis Nightstalker:::Idly fingers slid across his chest, to the knives strapped there, a wicked gleam in his evil gaze:: Oziendis Nightstalker:then so I shall ::that last was growled as suddenly six blades were airborne and aimed at Shadow.:: Oziendis Nightstalker:::He snapped his fingers and several shadowy creatures bristling with spines wings and claws emerged from seemingly nowhere. At his command they stayed, but it was evident they craved blood and flesh:: Azzure-Starlight: Star blinked several times At the demon, then at Shadow. If Shadow Needed help....She'd help. Oziendis Nightstalker:::He shot Azzure a look that would make her shiver with fear.:: Don't even think it, brat. Icer1978: :;A growl given, shaking herself from a daze, nostrils flaring.:; Azzure-Starlight: There was a slight shiver from her, before she gave a soft snarl. "Don't hurt her....Or my family." was said softly, before she shifted, into a tensed stance. Oziendis Nightstalker:I do not recall starting the argument, brat. Oziendis Nightstalker:Here I came to speak civilly with your mother who apparently has not taught any of you any manners.... Icer1978: :;Tail still twitched irritably as she kept herself between the demon and her slumbering daughter.:; Azzure-Starlight: I'm not a brat." she said softly, still tense. "Argument or no....It doesn't mean you can Attack her." she said lowly, before she motioned to Shadow. Oziendis Nightstalker:You, Icer my Dear, Have something of mine. I will be requiring it soon....::He looked back at Azzure. Shut your filthy little hole before I shut it for you. ::Gesturing to his "pets" who still ringed them::

Icer1978: I have not a thing of yours, demon, hissed out again, just now eying the creatures around.:; Azzure-Starlight: She Glanced at the things quietly, before she gave a soft growl, and shifted slightly. There was a soft mumble from her, before she glared at him. ShadowShimmerscale: She deflected the blades, not moving from her stance. She snarled out one word. "Coward." Oziendis Nightstalker:Oh, but you do. ::He smiled:: And I shall fetch it soon. ::with that he turned and began strolling away, then paused:: And teach your brats not to talk back lest they become fertilizer for my..well fertilizer. I hate plants. Oziendis Nightstalker:::He snapped his fingers and the creatures instantly fell upon shadow in a fury of claws and jaws:: Icer1978: Like Hell ye will, :;murmured.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:Did I not warn you about manners" ::watching them close in:: ShadowShimmerscale: She growled, twisting and fighting. She wasn't thinking, merely reacting. Flame crackled into being between Icer, Star, and herself. Icer1978: I could always teach ye some, :;hissed back.:; Icer1978: ::Her tail snapped out at a few of the offending shadow creatures, attacking her brood.:; ShadowShimmerscale: One fell, slashed through the throat. Her blade became a silver blur as she moved, air slicing, the beings fell one by one, she wasn't perfect, a bruise was forming on her ribs, and various cuts covered her back and arms. But, she stood in a circle of death. Azzure-Starlight: Star blinked, before she gave a soft hiss, and Eyed Shadow. "Do you need help?" was said quickly, before she moved closer. Oziendis Nightstalker:::there were always more where they had come from and at his beck and call they poured forth a legion of evil:: Oziendis Nightstalker:::He left them to deal with the attacking horde:: Have a nice day....::He laughed evilly as he vanished from sight::

Shiva: ::She opened sleepy eyes and sniffed oh no! she recognized that smell, and remembered what the demon had said would happen if she disobeyed...now she smelled him , she huddles up to Icer:: Icer1978: :;A wing settled over Shiva, giving a rumble, reassuring the little one.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:::He hadn't left, indeed he was still watching them:: ShadowShimmerscale: A low growl. The flames roared around her, and, she moved for them again. The young one's fear made her angry. A few fluid moves, as one more tried for her back. She shifted her weight, to dodge, and ran it through. : Hawk Lockelen has entered at 5:26 pm ShadowShimmerscale: She stood, panting. Only then noticing the burning of the cuts. She hissed, and dropped to one knee, the blade still out, dripping the black blood of the beings. Her head bowed as she cursed under her breath. Oziendis Nightstalker:::Somehow he had managed to get close enough to grab Shiva's tail and jerk her away from Icer:: Shiva: ::She whined and wimpered and yelped suddenly as she felt something grip her by the tail and yank her away from safety:: Mother! ::She shrieked as she was hauled violently away:: Icer1978: ::Ears perked, and a snarl rose within her throat, lunging after the one that had her daughter in their grasp.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:You, little one will learn obedience! ::He snarled. Then he unhooked something from his belt and lobbed it at Icer, smoke issued out, chokingly awful the stench would cause vomiting:: Oziendis Nightstalker:::And Icer would be met with Shiva. He slung her around like a howling weapon and clubbed Icer with her:: ShadowShimmerscale: Looking over then, she witnessed the motion, a growl, and a dagger appeared in her off hand. She disappeared, reappearing an instant later, that dagger speeding for his wrist. She was exhaling as the smoke poured out, but, for how much longer Shiva: ::The foul smelling smoke made her vomit, and the wild sling brough hard impact as she made contact with Icer as a club, unfortunately she was still throwing up:: ShadowShimmerscale: Trying to catch him with her away from himself, the blade went for his exposed throat Oziendis Nightstalker:::He jerked out of the dagger's way and twisted around to swing the ill Shiva at Shadow:: Icer1978: ::Grunting as the awful stench met her nostrils, a wing raised in defense, though she was starting to look quite the mess.:; Shiva: ::Now quite senseless she's used again as a weapon. Soon she's limp and unconscious in his grasp dangling like a rag doll:: ShadowShimmerscale: She ducked, stabbing in for his stomach, as she would go for his knee on the backswing ShadowShimmerscale: And, she inhaled about then. The bile and bread that she'd had that morning came back up as she rected, still trying to attack him, it would land on the ground, maybe him, if he wasn't fast enough Oziendis Nightstalker:::He would be impaled, yes, but he stood and grinned as black thick blood oozed out and began to corrode the metal. ::Hmmm tickles. My turn. ::He unhooked a huge spiked mace and slung it at Shadow's head, if it hit, she would need serious asprin:: Oziendis Nightstalker:::thrown up on, he doesn't really care, he's dripping blood and vomit and grinning like a madman:: Icer1978: ::Shaking out her serpentine neck, fighting back the bile rising in her throat, stalking Oziendis's way, a snarl forming.: Oziendis Nightstalker:Enough! ::He pressed a dagger to Shiva's throat:: Oziendis Nightstalker:Anothermove and her guts will be spilled through her belly Oziendis Nightstalker:::He traced the blade down her belly to her tail and back:: ShadowShimmerscale: And, as she was barfing about then, she didn't see it coming, her position might afford her a glancing blow as she pilled the knife back. And froze at the sight of the dagger on the hatchling's throat. "Leave her be." ShadowShimmerscale: But, she froze Shiva: ::its a good thing she's unconcious for this!:: Oziendis Nightstalker:I think not. She's mine. Oziendis Nightstalker:We have unfinished business Icer1978: ::That was enough, momma snapped, her horn lowered, taking aim as she charged the demon with her hatchling.: ShadowShimmerscale: Blood ran down her face from the mace's spike, her ears were ringing, and eyes watering. She shook her head slowly. "No. She isn't." Oziendis Nightstalker:::He sidestepped and laughed evilly. A tazer would be pulled out, set on "angry dragon" he jammed it into her neck:: ShadowShimmerscale: Her handle was dropped, and as Icer charged, she moved for his knife, going to disarm. ShadowShimmerscale: If she could, she would break his elbow in the process, trying to force him to drop the hatchling Oziendis Nightstalker:A shadow would open beneath him and swallow both he and Shiva to vanish from the glen:: Icer1978: :;A snarl, that rose to a screech in her throat as that tazer met scale.:; Oziendis Nightstalker:::And yes he cheated. He is a demon, after all. maniacal laughter:: ShadowShimmerscale: She stepped on the shadow as they vanished, unfortunately, so did the shadow. She cursed, brightly, loudly. Shiva: ::dragonnapped and gone as well:: : Shiva has left at 5:40 pm : Hawk Lockelen has left at 5:40 pm Icer1978: ::Cursing and snarling, she was in quite a bit of pain, wings flaring and writhing.:;

The little dragon was chained to a stone slab, neck, legs,wings and tail. He threw a bucket of cold liquid on her to wake her up. It wasn't water, but some dark foul smelling liquid that caused her to gag and choke as it filled her mouth. She threw up again this time on herself. Oziendis laughed. "Well, little one, did you forget your bargain? You bring me Icer you eat all the human you wish, nobody to stop you? And now. Tsk. Now you have gone and made me upset." He lifted a metal hook and examined it longer than was really necessary, giving her time to feel afraid. Afraid she did feel, like she never had before. she watched him as he lifted knives of every shape and size, almost ready to faint from fear. "Oh, not so easily little one." He sneered. Grabbing a smal vial he forced her jaws open and poured the contents in and forced her mouth shut, making her swallow. Shiva coughed and gave him a dirty look. "What was that, poison' Go to hell, Demon!" She spit at him, but missed. "No, just a little something to keep you alert while school is in session." He leered and leaned over her hands gripping her neck and squeezing until she was suffocating, after a moment he released her and left her to pant and gasp for air. Oziendis then hefted a solid wooden club and brought it down forcefully on Shiva's tail, hearing the satisfying sound of bones breaking under the force. Shiva screamed in agony as her tail was broken in several places. She continued until she was gagged, her muzzle bound with barbed chains that cut cruelly into her. "Be quiet, there's a good girl." Oziendis sneered. "Your mother won't recognize you when I'm done you little bitch!" He cracked her on the head harshly, but the potion did it's job and she stayed awake through the agony. "Oh, I see the poor baby is uneven..." Pulling at her wings he flapped them mockingly at her." Lets fix that, shall we?" With a mighty heave he yanked, feeling bone and tendon snap and separate as he pulled the right wing completely off. Shiva thrashed as well as she could for all her bindings, eyes glazed in torment. "Oh no! you are still uneven. Perhaps I will let you just look stupid, hm?" He laughed again and picked up a pair of pliers. He approached and began pulling scales out one by one. hours later, Shiva was a bloody mess, most of her scales were gone and it was a wonder she hadn't bled to death. Next he ripped out her claws, slowly, painfully, enjoying every ounce of suffering he was putting her through. "Remember I warned you not to double cross me" Now see what you've made me do." He held up her detached wing. "I'll be keeping this as a souvenir. You, well you will go to your mommy, and do as I told you, won't you?" Shiva was barely able to nod assent. "Good." He yanked her off the slab, not bothering to unchain her first, so her suffered more injury. He hauled her to a glade not far from Icer's den and dropped her roughly. "Now, do not fail me again." With that he left her, unable to move, on the brink of death.

Nostrils flared, the dragon was fuming, Oziendis had escaped with her daughter, talons dug into the ground as she was stalking around, saving up her energy.

Soon though a familiar scent hit her nostrils, and she started stalking toward the glade.

Ice blue eyes narrowed, then widened as she spotted Shiva and the condition she was in. That bastard.

His time would be coming soon enough, now though her main focus rested upon her daughter, carefully nudging the youngling.

A rumble welled deep within her throat, but turned to a soft soothing purr, not daring move her.

Instead, the dragoness paced, circling around her wounded daughter, nostrils scenting the air, seeking out a particular stink.

That stink never came, soon then she lowered her snout once more to Shiva, concentrating. Her magic whirled around the hatchling, seeking out the worst of the wounds.

She knew there were too many for her to tend to.

Shiva could smell Icer as she circled but could not move. even the healing magics could not totally heal her, though the worst of the bleeding had been stopped, all she could do was whimper weakly, knowing if she failed again she would die. She took comfort in her new mother, yes, her mother's presence and slipped away into the blackness again, her final thoughts were that she would not do it...Then she slept.....

Ice blue eyes scanned the area once more, nostrils quivering, ears perked and alert. A rumble welled deep in her throat as ears caught the snap of branches nearby, though it had only been a few squirrels at play.

Ice blue gaze returned to the injured youngling before her, Shiva had been stubborn when she'd first taken the little one in, but she was kin.

She never abandoned kin. Lowering her snout, she gently nuzzled her daughter as she slept, giving a soft reassuring purr.

She would move her daughter when the time was right, now was not that time. A glance to where her daughter's wing should have been, before gaze turned back out to the forest and beyond.

The tip of her tail twitching, quivering, before wrapping protectively around the form that once proud, and stubborn, now seemed so frail.
