Her entire body ached; her joints were sore, her muscles weak, and her body burned. The magnificent silver scales of the giant reptile were singed on one shoulder, and blackened on her forearms. Mist's slitted sapphire blue eyes had lost their life and energy as she drifted on the wind as fast as her body could take her. She glanced behind her frantically to see if Ifrit, the firey demon, was still after her. The jagged tops of the mountain were now below her and she dove down into them, her eyes searching for a familliar red sight, praying he was there.

Streaking across the sky in a flash of orange, the Sphinx weaved in and out of the mountains, enjoying the wind ruffling his feathers. Colliding suddenly with a massive body, he thudded painfully into the tough dragon-hide, and toppled to the mountains in a tangle of wings and legs.

Mist roared in surprise as the sphinx crashed into her. Although the body was small, she was weak, and the collision sent her spiraling into the side of a rocky mountaintop. She crashed into it in an explosion of rocks, tumbling down with them untill she flopped out on an outcropping. She was too exhausted to move, and simply lay there, sprawled across a weak stone outcropping with limbs dangling in the wind.

"Oh! I'm sorry, I didn't watch where I was going I- oh!" Seoman exclaimed, realizing that his audience wasn't listening. "Badly injured.." He muttered. Running a claw gently over the scorced belly, he muttered words, and the dragons eyes flickered open.

She let out a low, threatening growl. (lol, felt like throwing that in there) With a small gasp, she pushed herself upright, looking at the sphynx through blurred eyes. "Where's Boris?" she gasped.
((and she's not really badly hurt, just exhausted from healin ppl. she's no great healer))

(oo) "Boris?" He asked, puzzled. Gently, he spoke in a calm voice. "You are disoriented, tell me, what happened to get you burnt?"

Her breathing was heavy, almost panicked. "That... thing. That fire-demon thing... The Dark Riders' leader controls him. He may be following me. I must find Boris! Katherine and Leah are in trouble."

Lazy eyes stared down at the mountains below, while a scarlet red tung played around with a rather large bone. A streak of silver caught his eye along with an Orange one, and the bone suddenly froze. Bringing it up to his maw he snapped the bone in half, his fangs baring in slight rage from what he had saw. Sucking out the marrow he spat the bone out and immediately took off into the skies. Diving down he watched the two for a minuet studying who and what they were. Gasping slightly in shock he quickly dove down, whine red scales cutting through the air with surprising silence. Coming around the mountain so he would not be spotted he quickly flew around, keeping close to the mountain, and grabbed on, ivory white claws digging into the stone. Snaking around his neck he growled at the sphinx, obviously thinking him as an opposer. Glancing at Mist he approached slightly, eyes filled with worry, yet aggression to wards the lion as well. What has happened to you! He growled rather softly into her mind, tail twitching in rage.

"Oh my, demons, red dragons, what have I walked into? If you speak coherently, we should leave this spot." Taking flight, he hovered protectively over Mist, eyeing the red dragon warily, thinking the same of him as it thought of himself.

Taking a deep breath, as if about to breath out flames he stopped short and eyed the sphinx. Grinning slightly he cocked his head to the side "Have we not met before?" he asked remembering what had happened in the forest.

Mist hurredly(sp?) pushed herself to her feet as she saw Boris's head snake around the jagged rocks of the mountain. Kat! her mind shouted, unable to think of anything more to say, her thoughts scattered. She's in trouble! So is the General! I didn't know what to do... We were attacked. There's something very evil lurking around the ruins! It was never there before, or if it was, it was dromant.

Calm down Mist, Lunar informed of most of it not along ago. He spoke in a calming voice, trying to make Mist relax, but he knew it 'was' the time to panic. Lets get you to some place more stable where you can rest alright? He asked calmly. Katherine is not in danger, what I hear from Lunar anyways, and the others where probably taken as hostages. We need to plan or way through this he added at the end with a heavy sigh.

Mist nodded, folding her wings, her shoulders drooped. "Am I being followed?" she asked, casting a glance behind her, searching for a sign of Ifrit.
((blah....))

There was a low rumble underground, then slowly died away, then rose again.
(Blehhhhh)

The rumble made some rocks fall from above, and he growled as one hit him in the side. Though it was small it made him slightly mad and he quickly turned to Mist. Come on we better fly, are you well enough to do so? He asked pushing from the mountain so he wouldn't get hit again.

I am well, just tired, she replied, launching into the air. I'll manage, she told him as she pumped her wings and took off at a dizzying speed, flying low around the mountains. She darted around rocks, other mountainous obstacles with snake-like agility.

The ground she had just taken off from cracked open, spewing lava and ash. Many of the mountain's sides exploded, also releasing molten lava and tons of smoke. Lava flowed into a valley, filling it very quickly and creating a crimson lake of fire. Ifrit seemed to be standing on top of the lava's surface in the middle of the valley, and he seemed to be growing in size as well.

Starting in suprise, Seoman examined Boris closely. "Yes, I do believe we have met. But if what she says is true, we should get moving." He said. (bleh)

Nodding to wards the sphinx he quickly took off after his companion, his silted eyes immediately going to wards the demon. Sadness leaped at him as he watched his home being destroyed and he slowed down once catching up to Mist. "This will be hard trying to escape in his own area of advantage" he mumbled glancing at the silver dragon. "Do you know of any weak points it may have?" he asked hopefully.

Zipping back and forth in his energetic flight, Seoman offered his sudgestions gravely. "I have fought something like this before, (does it really have a weakness? or can we just run?) but my attempts to find it's weak-point were fruitless. Not to say it doesn't have any" He added hurriedly, (sp) seeing the dragons glare that clearly said 'you're not helping' "just I never found them" He finished difensively. (meh)
