Note- for descriptions of soleil and plague see my profile.
Soleil laid by the fire place of her friend 's cottage which was three miles from the dragon temple, her friend a blue thief named Geoff was a kind soul, he never stole, and he never broke any laws, and always took care of her, but always drank too much alcohol and sometimes came back drunk to the point where it looked like he would pass out, she chuckled at the thought of Geoff passing out drunk, when she heard the door open she raised her head up and saw Geoff standing in the doorway, his blue robes and turban were soaking wet.
"What happened?" she asked in a concerned tone, her eyes fixed on the thief.
"Morgan thought it would be funny to pour a bucket of ice cold water on my head" he told her in an upset voice.
Soleil growled angrily, Morgan was a riptoc bartender who enjoyed picking on Geoff, he called him names like crazy drunk, filthy beggar, or pathetic thief, and soleil hated the bartender for picking on her calling her a fool for befriending a thief, she saw nothing wrong with befriending him, she liked him as a friend and as his friend she thought it was not good for him to be drinking but she kept her opinions to herself.
Geoff then went to his wardrobe and changed into a dry turban and dry robes, and then he tossed the wet clothing in the far corner of the cottage then went to go sit by the fire, soleil then followed Geoff and curled up next to him, the thief just stared blankly into the fire, then reached into his robe and pulled out a bottle of rum, opened it and began to drink, the silver dragoness just watched as he chugged the entire bottle in a minute then pulled out another bottle of rum and chugged that one.
"Geoff?" soleil said, unsure if the thief would even respond to her since he chugged two bottles of rum.
"Yeah?" he said.
Before she could say any thing they both heard a loud thump at the door, soleil got to her feet as soon as she heard an other thump but Geoff was so drunk that as he got up he fell back down, soleil then approached the door and opened it with her paws to see a young black dragon her age on the ground before her, he had three gashes on his left shoulder and several deep cuts all over his body.
"ARE YOU ALRIGHT!!!" the dragoness cried out in shock.
"..Help…me" he said Weakley, soleil then called out to Geoff fro help, despite the fact that he was still drunk he came over and looked down at the poor dragon, then they both helped the dragon inside and laid him by the fire place, Geoff then rummaged through the medical bag he kept in the kitchen and pulled out a small stone, a canteen of water, a bowl, a small knife, a strange blue herb, and a grey fruit resembling a banana.
"What are you doing?" soleil asked, her purple eyes fixed on the thief.
But Geoff didn't answer, he pounded the herb with the stone until it was all smashed then placed it into the bowl, and then he took the knife and cut the fruit in half revealing an orange paste inside he scooped out some of the paste and dumped with the herb, then he opened the canteen and poured a little water into the bowl and mixed it around until it created a thick grayish goo, he then smeared some of the goo onto the wounds, the dragon began whimpering in pain.
"Your going to be alright" soleil said soothingly trying to comfort him, she could see tears forming in his eyes.
When Geoff was done he bandaged the wounds then went to the corner of the cottage and sat down then pulled out a third bottle of rum, soleil looked at him with disgust *how can he be drinking in a time like this?* she thought, she then looked at the dragon, his yellow eyes met with her beautiful purple eyes, after a moment the dragon began to speak in a weak voice.
"Plague" he said, still staring at the dragoness standing before him.
"Huh?" soleil said in a confused voice.
"My... Name … is plague" he told her, before falling unconscious, soleil the laid down by him * what a night* she thought, before she closed her eyes and slept.
