Aquaflow flew in large circles over the barren country that stretched out bellow her. She was trying to locate the place that EarthGroup was sheltering in. "EarthGroup, come forth. I come in peace and with a message from WaterGroup." She roared, loud and clear, over the earth. She hovered for a while, her wings tracing wobbly figure-eights as she tried to stay in one place.

Rat slowly walked out of her sheltering cave, the sun gleaming in her eyes made her wince. She sniffed at the dragon who spoke, slowly circling her. The sun gleamed on her her individual scales seemed to gleam, her brown eyes narrowed as she looked at the Water Group Dragon.
"You have brought a message," Rat growled her eyes flashed with interest. "You are brave enough to come into Earth Group territory and caverns water dragon," she said her growl turned into a soft coo. Stopping in front of dragon. "Say what you have to say quick," Rat said quickly. She had no time to deal with this dragon, all she wanted to know is what it had to say. |

Aquaflow smiled at the EarthGroup dragon. "Me and a friend have thought about this. The fighting that is going on between the groups, its killing to many dragons. Dragons that could have grown old are dying young. Dragons were meant to have a long lifespan. We, WaterGroup, has decided that one or two dragons from each group should travel to talk to the elders and the council." She roared, loud enough for it to travel through the air. She flapped her wings as best she could as she waited for an answer.

Rat paused, her eyes turned to slits as she stomped on the ground her claws digging into the tough ground and stone.
"And why should I," she said in a low mummer. "I have my Group to take care of," Rat's whiskers waved in the air, following her movements in perfect sync. "Water Group should keep their noses turned away from Earth Group we are known for are stubbornness mostly," she said defiantly giving a small chuckle.
Sounds of dragons slowly approaching made her jerk her head to see her Earth Group members slowly approach, forming a circle around both of them. Questioning looks, and low mummers and whispers made Rat clench and unclench her teeth, then continued jerking her head swiftly back to the water dragon.
"The council dragons are wise," Rat said closing her eyes recounting the events that took place so long. Wars, and blood spilled on the ground, and roars of anger, mixed with grief, and pain made her eyes open slowly. "But not not wise enough they should have been smart enough to stop this before it happened," Rat said allowed. The Earth dragons roared, hurrying to agree to their leaders words.

Aquaflow shook her head. The tales of EarthGroups stubbornness were almost more than true. "The council have no control over the powers of nature. Please, come to talk to the council before we all die." She said. She flew down and landed in front of the dragon, who seemed to be the current leader. "You just think about it... What would happen if the fighting doesn't stop?" She said in a soft whisper, only loud enough to hear among the silence of EarthGroup.

The Earth Group dragons stopped, lowering their heads and looking at their battle wounds, and their missing Group mates who died in battle. Rat lowered her head to, thinking, she maybe should agree. The fighting maybe stop, but maybe not.....
"Maybe we should agree Rat," a Flyer said he heaved a big sigh. "This war should stop," he said his eyes shown with despair.
"Stop..." Rat said in hardly a whisper. "Stop!" She gave a angry roar, she gave a snarl at the Water Group Dragon. "Everyone knows Water Group are nothing but weaklings," Rat paced around the lining of Earth group Dragons. She turned her back on the water dragon, giving her dragons powerful words. "Why should we do as they say no one can trust a water dragon," Rat growled. Some members roared, clearly showing they approved. "We are showing weakness by doing this," Rat said knowing she maybe true. "We are strong as one we do not need to council to guide us," Rat snarled.
"She is right," a female earth dragon urged her Group mates on to. "We need no one but ourselves," she hissed at the group giving a roar while she stood next to her leader. Dragons looked at each other, as though confused on what was happening. Clouds formed over head, causing the wind to stir slowly. After sometime rain seemed to fall, and Rat snarled in annoyance. "You have wasted my time enough," she said ducking away from the rain. "You may have the others Groups fooled but not us," she roared into the dragons face.

Aquaflow stood her ground. She couldn't beleive that EarthGroup would go against the council. "FINE! She hissed. "If you say you show weakness by not stopping the war, you are wrong. Do so if you will, but I warn you." She said, swinging her head to look at everyone. "You will all die if this war doesn't end. Think of your friends, your family, the dragons that have joined the Plains of Endless Burning. The dragons that gave their lives to protect the rest of you. Think of the survivors, the ones that you love and want to keep." At this she looked up at the sky, a tear forming at her eye. "I have lost friends and family, almost everyone I have. If you go against this, and against the council, you are saying you do not want peace and you want to convict everyone standing alive today, to death." She stared at Rat on the last word, a fire burning in her eyes. "You get to choose, peace, or death." Tears were now running down her face, almost masked by the rain. But where they fell, they stayed, sparkling, for a few minutes, before soaking into the ground. The stain of tears wouldn't wash away for a few years to come, so that everyone would remember that moment.
Darksecret stepped forward, addressing Rat. "I am not one to say this is right, but I would rather see the council that die young." She faced the rest of EarthGroup and began speaking, "I know this isn't my usual self, but listen to this dragons words." She said. She stepped back, hiding her head behind her wing in embarrassments.

Dragons heads went down even lower, as though they felt like the dirt they stood on. Rat panted, before she stopped, her shoulders slumped down. She gave a glance at the water dragon, Rat felt something, but hardly anything.
"The others will handle this," Rat said referring to the other groups. "We have no need to come get the other groups to help you but not us," Rat said shaking her head sadly. "But leave Earth Group be," Rat said. "The next time any of your water dragons or any one in the other groups step foot on are territory," Rat said her breath becoming shallow. "We will show no mercy," Rat said softly. The Earth Group dragons gave a roar as though they one a full on battle, stomping the feet onto the ground. The earth shook, and Rat eyes met with the she dragon. "Battler's get rid of her," Rat said as she slowly walked over to her den.
Bulky dragons stepped forward, their teeth bared, and their eyes seemed to be thirsting for blood. They restrained themselves though, only wanting to chase the dragon off for good. The Battlers charged at her, snapping their teeth.

Aquaflow leped into the air. She wasn't a flyer for nothing. The dragons that had charged her ran right through the spot where she had been standing just moments before. As soon as she was in the air, she was back on the ground. "Just think of what I have said, all of you. Would you rather that EarthGroup perished and there only be three groups, or accept an idea and see the council?" She roared all around. The Battlers had recovered and she shot back into the air. She dove down, ready to fight to death if she had to, or until something happened.
Suddenly, like a flash of black light, Darksectert sprang in between the she dragon and the Battlers. She felt bad, because she was defying the purpose of being a Hunter. She slashed her tail at the she-dragon, two blood-red spikes glistening before they swished by their target.
Aquaflow stopped at the sight of the Hunter. "Remember..." She called as she flew towards WaterGroup.
Darksecret watched her go, knowing what would happen if they didn't do what the she-dragon had said.
ooc: You will have to show up at the council though, o there will be no EarthGroup. Just in case you didn't know.

OCC:Yeah I will go, Rat will go reluctantly anyway, she wants to see what the Council has to say for themselves.
IC: Rat watched giving as she rested her head on a boulder, thinking over the events. I will go, she thought. But only to ask questions, she gave a sigh closing her eyes.
"What is it," she said faintly as a brown colored dragon appeared at the entrance.
"Master the she dragon has left," he said.
"Good," she said in a whisper.
"Will we attack the Water Group ever," the Earth dragon said afraid to be snarled at he backed away bit.
"Not now, not yet," Rat said standing up and creeping back to the darkest corners of her den. "Get ready we will leave sometime soon," she said thinking and letting the black hug her until only her brown eyes shown.
"As you wish," the dragon said running off.
"We will not show weakness we are strong we are the Earth Group!"

Darksecrets felt bad, although she didn't show it. On the outside she looked like any normal EarthGroup dragon, proud and strong. But on the inside she was filled with some torn feeling. She turned around, leaped up, and pumped her wings. "I'm... I'm going hunting." She anounced, staring at everyone with eyes that said 'and I'm going alone!' She made a circle, veering off towards other parts of their territory.

Tundra watched Darksecrets fly into the sky, feeling guilty inside. She nobely faced her leader, anger in her eyes.
'If you, or a fellow dragon won't leave, I will!' She shouted with determination,'This fighting HAS to stop! Who knows, maybe the other groups will turn on us - then who will be the ones laughing about others' ideas? -Hmmm?' Tundra was infact ready for the worst - but she was only doing what she felt was right. She hated it when her group found itself omnipotent compared to the other groups. She started to flap her wings - ready for descent,'Well?' Tundra asked, waiting for a reply, dispite its' alignment. Even if her leader wouldn't listen she would still leave, and speak as EarthGroup as 1 dragon - even though it did bring her doubts upon fairness.

Rat opened one eye, she would not reveal what she would be doing not yet anyway. Her intentions were not clear, she rather keep them ominous to her Group. She looked at Tundra, hardly any emotion shown in her eyes, she always knew to keep her real emotions hidden. Rat closed her eyes again, giving a hardly audible sigh as she swept through her thoughts like a book. Tundra's words hardly effected her, her only thought was to keep a firm grip of her group mates, their safety was everything to her.
"Fighting will never end," Rat said in a firm but smooth voice. "We will always fight among are selves, there maybe alliances, there maybe none." Rat was smart enough to know that nothing ever ends, she gave a low sigh raising her head from the boulder. "Fine we will go to the Council," she snarled at Tundra. "And you will accompany me then," Rat softly cooed. "We shall see how to Council solves are problems," Rat said laying her head down again and closing her eyes. |

ooc: Wow, i'm delighted at the thought, but lets give some others a chance first. Afterall, i do own the WaterGroup leader...
ic:
'I know fighting won't end, but from what i think... It sounds as if the council will close the doors on pointless killing...' She said, slightly trailing off as she concentrated on hovering on the spot,'...And thank you, Rat. Shall we leave now, or shall we leave it for a bit? I don't think they made it clear... Maybe when we feel ready we'll pay them a visit, hmm?'
