Through the whistling tunnels and roaring canyons flew a dragon of AirGroup. Powerful milky wings ripped through the ever present layer of clouds overhead, spiraling in and out to keep hidden from any below. Blue eyes glistened maliciously, and full of mischief, as the long neck of the dragon arched over to scan a ribbon of milk far bellow. Branch of Broken Willow was abroad.

Blazing Crystal examined the sky as usual before He launched Himself into the cloud filled sea. He had a slight grin, things going well for the past few days. He twirled through the air effortlessly, whooshing through a cloud to see Branch of Broken Willow not to far ahead of Him. "Hey!" He shouted, it echoing in the endless sky.

The dragonesses head snapped around, blue eyes narrowing as she focused on the other dragon behind her. "Blazing Crystal..." She murmured to herself, recognizing the other dragon. Elegant as only the AirGroup dragons could be in the cruel winds of the canyons and plateaus, Willow flipped herself over and drifted backwards while hanging upside down in the sky before righting herself next to Blazing Crystal.

Blazing Crystal watched has the skillful Broken Willow place Herself beside Blazing Crystal. "As good as ever it seems?" Broken Willow had always been a excellent flier. Blazing Crystal was sometimes jealous for Her skills. But He could handle the winds just as good as any other dragon in His group He decided and left it at that. Plus Blazing Crystal didn't mind having a little more claw then wing.

Willow nodded, although since fog was hard to see through she added a voices assertion as well. "You too it seems." She added, looking the elder dragon up and down with her stare as hard and cold as the ice that sometimes collected in the stream bellow or on the scales of dragons that flew high through the fog and cloud cover. Odd sounds seemed to echo past the two dragons every now and again, but at first the young dragon didn't pay much attention to them.

Blazing Crystal's hears seemed to fill with echos. Endless sounds that made Blazing Crystal shiver. "I need to rest for a minute Broken Willow..." He mumbled slowly coming to a halt and landing near a small stream in a small area of trees. The earth near the stream was damp and soft, but almost to soft. Like something had came through it recently. He sighed mentioning something about crazy Humans digging up the Earth.

Willow drifted down in slow circles after her leader, landing smoothly a minute or so after the other dragon had alighted on the ground below. With curiosity the female dragon arched her pale neck to peak over Blazing Crystals shoulder and see what he was looking at. The ground under-claw seemed to have been torn up, making her first assumption be a stampede of deer had come through recently. But the prints in the firmer mud were not hooves, but more humanoid. And yet there were gouges on either side of many tracks, which meant... "Erm... These things look like they might have wings..." She observed, picturing flying humans clumsily landing on the bank. Wait! Humans dont have wings!

"Hmm?" Blazing Crystal turned around slowly staring at the tracks and then questioningly looking at Broken Willow. What the?
The old Dragon fell off His seat on His rather large boulder when a large object flew into His chest. It knocked Him breathless. WA!? He stared up into the sky, spotting several winged targets. Humans? The objects flew in closer to the ground, exposing their monster like facial appearance. Those are some ugly Humans!

Willow started with surprise sparkling in her blue eyes, but this surprise soon turned to anger. No stinking human was going to attack her leader and live, even if it could fly. Adrenaline pulsed through her veins, and with one or two flaps of her powerful wings she launched herself at one of the flying things and sent it flying through the clouds to disappear in the distance. Her instinct was of course to fly away, and get back to the Cavern, but she would only do this with her leader.

Blazing Crystal coughed up a bit of blood, the attacker had plunged a sword into His upper chest. The strong Air Group leader pulled out the sword with His teeth, roaring in pain and wincing has blood flowed out of the wound. More enemies flew in from behind them. Blazing Crystal swatted one down as it swept past Him, its rotting skin torn apart by the Dragon's lethal claws. "Lets go!" He coughed preparing for take off.
OOC: Not evil blood got on Him and we will fight more in the sky

Willow heard her leaders signal for flight and acknowledged it with a curt nod before leaping into the heavens above while batting her wings with such force it knocked over almost all the enemies on the ground. More kept coming, but they seemed clumsy fliers compared to the AirGroup dragons. At least in the skies they had a slight advantage... for a while at least.

As Blazing Crystal raced over to the female's side blood flew out of His wound, the wind sweeping it into the icy air. Determination was spread across the male's face as He looked the enemy in the eyes. They may be sloppy but their swords cut through the hair, their size allowing them to be agile and swift. Also their blades cut through the soft bellies of the Air Group dragons easily. Blazing Crystal charged a group of them with His horns, the bodies get caught on the sharp cones, Blazing Crystal dragging them along as He plowed through their monsterous ranks. "Taste death you beasts!" He roared suddenly flicking His head up, the bodies on His horn, flying off, raining down to the blood covered Earth. Some landed in trees, some branches breaking off but holding the wrenches above the vast forest, exposing their bodies as a warning to all air creatures. "Shall we dance with the foul beast?' He said spitting out a bit of blood.

Willow caught a couple of the beasts in her claws, ripping them to pieces before releasing the pieces and letting them fall to the ground. Some of the fleshy rain hit creatures on the ground squarely on the head, knocking them cold and making them fall, causing those running behind them to trip over the bodies. "If you want my advice, then I say we should get back to the Caverns." She screeched over the roar of the howling wind.

"Aww, no fun!?" He roared over the suddenly fierce wind. I haven't stretched my claws forever Blazing Crystal was getting a bit full of Himself as He sliced down the tiny beasts with the slightest swipes of His claw. He was cutting down their numbers one by one but more and more were endlessly falling out of the sky above.
He tackled a few that swept in behind Broken Willow, a sword jabbing into His spine in the lunge. "Ha!" The roared snapping the monster's neck with the bat of His foot. "He just gonna hover there or you going to slice some meat?" He asked with a smirk on His face, one that rarely showed up in Blazing Crystal's emotions.
Humor
Something inside Blazing Crystal drived Him to kill, to wipe them all out, to crush the ants. He wasn't done till their bodies littered the ground, no Earth left to see. It must be total victory!
He let out a roar that shook the little winged menaces, caused some to lose concentration and fall to their end or some just had their wings snapped by the intensity and fell to the same fate as the rest.
"You all will die!!!!!" He flung Himself into them all, biting, cutting, slashing, hitting, kicking.
He had many deep gouges across His body now as a shadow came across the sky, a large Dragon shadowed the lands, at least 5x bigger then Blazing Crystal, black and purple scales, and red eyes. The dragon that Blazing Crystal had dreamed off and saw in His mind.
"It's you!" He sneered flying up the the huge beast. "I never knew you would arrive at such and fun time..." He sighed "Now you have to ruin my streak?" He questioned. Blazing Crystal's mind was not His own, His body exhausted and injured, He could not focus on clearing His mind from the constant voices any longer, they had taken over and He had become a whole new person.

Roaring with laughter, Willow joined into the massacre of the evil forces above and below. But her master, the leader of AirGroup, was exhausting all his strength. By the time the shadow of doom arrived, the flyer had to get the tired dragon out of there. "Blazing Crystal!" She snapped, rushing at the older dragon as the shadow lunged. Thankfully the young dragon got her leader out of the way in time, and the shadows jaws snapped on thin air. "Go back to where you came from! Leave us!" The milky dragon snapped, disappearing into the clouds as her scales did their job of hiding her.
