Aquaflow wanted to race after the fading elders, but they just seemed to turn to bubbles. Suddenly the water seemed to disappear under her, and the land changed under her aqua blue claws. It looked like FireGroup territory, full of ash and cinders and fire. The baffled female dragon started stumbling around until she bumped, unexpectedly, into what seemed to be a dragon statue. "Oh dear..." She said aloud, inspecting the little encased Burnfire.

An elder then popped up and said. "Find him, and save him. We need you. You are the only one who can. After all, you are the only one among the living with the gift to heal."

Aquaflow gazed with horror at the little dragon statue as the elder spoke. "I'm not! What about the others? The other healers?" She said, glancing around like crazy. "Why me?" She asked herself, turning her eyes to the stars.

"They are not ready. Maybe someday, but not now. If you must ask why then maybe we chose wrong for all four. And for the finding of BurnFire, consider it a test. Healers must work with both Earth and Sky. Heaven and H***." And with that the voice faded into nothingness, along with the statue of BurnFire.

Aquaflow pulled herself together, deciding that there wasn't anything she could do to change her destiny. If this was how her path was laid out to be, she would walk it proudly. Flapping her wings for a while, she finally lifted into the air with a flourish, straining under her own weight. From above, the Plains where their ancestors hunted seemed large. The statue I saw was encased in rock in a place full of fire... The Water Dragon remembered, steering reluctantly towards a place where smoke rose from lakes of fire.

Suddenly, a black mist leeched the sky and the land became drained of color. The elders screamed in horror and pain and gold light ran towards AquaFlow. As it shot into AquaFlow, she felt stronger as the light was the srtenght of the elders. With each contact she heard the elders yelling at her to hurry...

ooc: Please don't powerplay.  ic: Aquaflow watched as the light came and enfolded her. A burst of speed made her rush through the air, and soon an odd bump in the ground bellow caught her eye. It was a miracle that she saw it at all, for the terrain bellow was so bleak. But the golden light let her see, so she circled down a bit clumsily and alighted close by. Sure enough, the lump was a little Burnfire statue. But how will I heal him? She couldn't help wondering. |

(I didn't mean it as such. Itwas as a convaence.)
Sadly, the elders remained silent, as though they couldn't hear.

ooc: Ah, okay.
ic: "Might as well start somewhere..." The dragon mumbled, starting to but her head against the statue. A loud crack ripped through the air as some of the rock fell off the statue. Scales shone from beneath the blackness, so Aquaflow kept at it. "Is there any Rutile or Flower Coral around here?!" Called the healer in distress, hoping that the deceased dragons wouldn't just sit there.

In her mind's eye the Elders showed her that 3 wing beats away was some Rutile, though the plant was slightly charred. The image left a faint imprint on AquaFlow's mind

Aquaflow got the message, and darted over to the spot where the Rutile should be growing. Sure enough, there it was. Although on the outside it had collected a layer of gray ash and black soot, after blowing it off with wind from her wings it seemed usable. "Thanks!" She called out into the open, hoping the ancestors would get the message. Quickly the healer hurried back to Burnfires side and began to work on covering the wounds.

Finally, after many strenuous hours, a group of elders arrived as BurnFire awoke.
"Thank you AquaFlow for your help in finding and aiding this young dragon. For your help we have deemed you worthy of the honor we are about to bestor upon you.
AquaFlow, do you forsake your group and swear in turn to come to the aid of all dragons be they of FireGroup, Stray origin, Soft claw, AirGroup, WaterGroup, or EarthGroup and in your service to us forsake both make and child?" Four elders intoned in unison.

Aquaflow listened with excitement at the words of her ancestors as they made her a healer, although she hesitated when the last words were spoken. The young dragon had already broken one of the laws, and lying was her only rout. "I do." She said as boldly as possible.

"Then by the powers of AirGroup"
"Then by the powers of FireGroup"
"Then By the powers of WaterGroup"
"Then By the powers of EarthGroup"
"We welcome you as the first Healer and in honor of your deeds here name you AquaSearcher. Remember to Come back at the time of the Half-Moon. And also, if you find one who is wise to the way of Healing to make them your Trainee Healer"
(now you for me)

ooc: For who?
ic: Aquaflow draco parted her head to one side when she heard the name. "Excuse me... But can I just keep Aquaflow?" She asked rather shyly, blushing a little.
