Could you patch me up?"[/b][/color] He paused and motioned to his bloodied shoulder. [color=blue][b]"I have some things I could trade for it."[/b][/color] A small smile reached my lips as well as my eyes at his offer, shaking my head. [b]"No, I don't think that will be necessary. I'd be glad to fix up your shoulder."[/b] My eyes catch the fresh dirt scattered around massive holes not far from where we were standing, looking back at his dragon with a smirk. [b]"Long as your guy doesn't burrow through our mountain. There's another way for him to get to our base. It's a back route, he can get to it underground. It's on the backside of the mountain and it's large enough to fit him through without having to dig his way in. It's also where we keep the horses, so Kohl should be there to lead him in."[/b] My eyes meet Jet's once more where they hold for a few moments before turning around to walk to Niklaus, calling over my shoulder whilst I start taking out my sword and multiple knives from off of me, [b]"I'll even relieve myself of my weapons, so your dragon doesn't worry himself about your safety with a stranger."[/b] I strap my sword down and toss my knives into the small bag on Niklaus's saddle, giving him a couple pats on the shoulder before heading towards the base of the mountainside where the trail led up to our camp. [b]"This way.[/b] In my thoughts, I hear Niklaus speaking to me. [color=lightblue][i]'So [b]his[/b] dragon doesn't worry, what about me, Freya? You know I can't be of any help. I can't fit on the path either. I'd have no way of saving you before it's too late.'[/i][/color] I keep my expression cool and my emotions calm, but answer back with a quickly. [i]'I know. I'm still not sure if it's necessary or not, at this point. The man seems friendly enough. It's rare we run into people like him, but we've run into far too many who put on a show. I only said yes to bandaging him up because if he's genuine, I don't want to ruin our name.'[/i] Niklaus responds, [color=lightblue][i]'You always try being the peace keeper, Freya, but it doesn't always work this way..'[/i][/color] By now, we've reached the base and I stop in my tracks to turn to the three of them with my hands clasped tightly behind my back, waiting patiently. Niklaus extends his large wings and with a short huff of breath immediately takes off for the top. I yell at him telepathically, [i]'If not me, who else will?'[/i] but I don't hear a reply. [sub]He knows I'm right.[/sub] When the dirt settles from Niklaus's exit, I glance back at Jet and half smile. [b]"I don't bite, I promise."[/b] I call out teasingly.
