Just how long had they been running? Probably for no longer than ten minutes by this stage, but the girls seemed to make up ground quite quickly. Being Slayers pumped full of adrenaline in a life-threatening situation meant you could move surprisingly fast. But even so, this wasn’t without its hiccups from the blonde. Her own feet seem determined to undermine her attempts at running at every given tree branch, rock or even thin air by tripping her up. Luckily for her, Penny had a firm grip on her arm other she would’ve face-planted long ago. When Iggy spoke of a large group of people on the other side, she cast a quick glance towards Penny. Surely that had to be their fellow guildmates, who else could it be? Soon a shadow was over them, the dragon was overhead! Squeezing her eyes as tightly as she could, she waited for the inevitable attack from the dragon….would it swoop it with its sharp claws or teeth and rip them to shreds? Or would it effectively just nuke them from the sky with a roar? [i]“Pay attention girl! Open your eyes!” [/i]Ryujin’s voice snapped her back to reality, the reality that included not being attacked by a dragon as it slowly overtook them. Wait, wasn’t it chasing them? Unless…. [color=f49ac2]“Penny! Look!”[/color] Calling out loud enough for her usually soft voice to be heard by Penny, but hopefully not loud enough to be heard by the dragon overhead, the blonde quickly gestured upwards with her free hand. [color=ed145b]“Hmph, it better run. Coward.”[/color] Despite Rajah’s words, there was an unmistakable twinge of relief in the exceed’s tone. But if the dragon wasn’t after them….where was it going? [i]“Do not slow your course child. You aren’t out of danger just yet.” [/i] [color=f49ac2][i]“I know Ryujin, I can smell it…”[/i][/color] Multiple dragons were on the island. How many? Well, she couldn’t quite tell. She was still recovering somewhat from the miasma around the island, combined with all the new scents which were foreign to her then pinpointing such accurate information was most certainly beyond her. It was probably beyond her, to begin within ideal situations as well. Which meant the chances were high that the others were up against one, or more, dragons. Meaning they could need her help! With renewed energy and determination, she continued to run just behind of Penny. Just because the dragon wasn’t after them, didn’t mean they should slow up for even a moment.

I never said you were, just freaked me out was all.”[/color] Shrugging off Sasha’s annoyance, Ash quickly turned her gaze to the dragon. Was it her imagination or...was it starting to move? Anticipation building, she subconsciously began to clench and unclench her fists. She was the type to listen to her instincts, and they were screaming something fierce about this situation. It didn’t take long for her gut feeling to be realised either. Feeling the residue roar wash over her body, her hair whipping about with her jacket, the adrenaline already began to take over. “Don’t think I’m gonna let ya have all the fun...” With the dragon seeming to stumble from Hunter’s blow, Ash gathered flames in her gloved hand. [color=9e0b0f]“Better go on ahead Frosty. Me and Jade here can handle one little newt.”[/color] With a confident look, she quickly fired a series of small fireballs into the dragon’s side. Now, did the pyromancer actually expect these to even scratch the dragon? God no. But even if they did no more than tickle the beast, they should at least draw some of its attention. Soon after firing the projectiles, she was gone, racing up beside it and launching into a flame coated punch into its side.

As the two bickered among themselves it seemed, both Cody and James didn’t seem to be able to get a word in so Cody spent the time just looking between the duo and James. He at least managed to keep track of the fast-moving conversation and bank the useful information. The older man was called Bayard. He seemed to be helping the younger boy out to find someone by the name of Fay. The younger of the two seemed to want to help them in case they could uncover something about this missing Fay. They both seemed to be wizards, that much could be confirmed by the faint sensation of magic about them. The rest of which he made note of….well they could all be lies, but he doubted it. Unless they were S-Class liars and actors. With James making it rather clear on his stance with the duo, but still accepting their offer, Cody let out a heavy sigh. He was tired, both from his own thoughts and this little ordeal. The sooner they found these bandits the better. [color=ed1c24]“First things first. If we’re going to work together, we need to know each other’s names right?”[/color] Stepping forward, Cody extended his right hand towards the duo. This also exposed the bright red guild mark on his palm. [color=ed1c24]“Cody Bloodstein.” [/color]
