chapter 10

"Is this what would have happened if that child was born?" kuroko shook his head and looked at Akashi.

"No, it would have been much worse…"

Akashi leaned over Taiki and stared at the child. Taiki, in response showed his teeth, and tried to claw at Akashi's face, all while screeching and calling for his mother. Kuroko pushed Akashi away from the child and began to rock Taiki slowly, to calm him down.

"Why is this child so violent?" Akashi asked as he took a step behind kuroko and looked at Taiki from over the blue heads shoulder.

"He's only this way because he doesn't know us…and other than that, he hasn't eaten for a few hours so he is also probably hungry." Akashi nodded and looked back over to the fire. Aomine and Kagami where already done carving the meat and had it over the fire, and were now huddled next to it, resting in each other's arms. Akashi got kuroko's attention and pointed to the weyr, kuroko smiled at the sight, but he could tell that the two were still awake, and that they were simply enjoying each other's company, so kuroko paid no more mind to it and went back to concentrating on the baby. For a few hours, things where peaceful, there was no danger or threat, just the simple call that Taiki made to fill the silence, but unknown to the flight, danger was stocking them, and waiting for a chance to strike. The danger was ever so slightly getting closer, and the closer it came to the dragons, the more weary they will become. Aomine was the first to notice the slight change in the air, but he refused himself the opportunity to tell his flight, because he thought it would cause a panic if he did. As the aura in the air around the land became stronger, more dragons became aware of the treat. All over the land, separate weyrs in the flight and their families were all alerted of the dark presents of a terrifying group.

The group was none other than the three great knights.

The great nights where not originally a group, they were separate people who protected their own lands. They were the strongest of all the knights, or rather the strongest of the entire human race. These three people made a promise to each other, stating that the only time they would ever meet again was when there was a danger that threatened all of the protected lands. If the great knights where close enough to the dragons for them to sense them, then the dragons were I trouble.

The blood thirsty aura that penetrated the air was causing every dragon in the area to stir. Cries of protective mothers, along with territorial howls from the pigma's, alerted everyone that there was going to be a fight. Kagami and kuroko, having noticed the battle mode in there pigma's, fled to the nest in the small part of the cave, with Taiki in their arms.

Aomine and Akashi stepped out onto the cliff and looked up. it was now dusk, and the whole sky seemed to be consumed by a crimson red, that was quietly diluted by the puffy pink clouds. In a normal circumstance, this would have been the perfect sunset, but with all the cries and calls that punctured the air, it made the sight unwelcome, and rather disturbing. Akashi was the first to move, he began to stretch his back muscles and shoulders, warming up for flight. Dragons are able to fly without fully transforming, but there is a catch, and that's why most refrain from doing it.

"Oi Akashi! What the hell do you think you doing? We made no flying a rule for a reason! We can't smell each other! We won't know where anyone is!" Akashi stopped his stretches and looked at Aomine.

"Get Ryouta to gather up the Sians and the hatchlings… tell him to bring them all here. This is the highest and the safest place for them, and he's the only one with levitation powers. Daiki…just because we can't smell each other doesn't mean we can't hear each other…sometime rules are meant to be broken, so spread your wings with me, and let's show them what were made of." Aomine was taken aback by the order.

"W-wait a minute… are we really going to fight them!? Akashi continues his stretches and ignores Aomine's question. Reluctantly, Aomine begins to stretch too, making Akashi smirk to himself.

When the two Pigma's were done stretching, they began to transform. Akashi, again was first to start. Red, leathery wings started to push their way out of his back, making popping and cracking sounds as the bones and muscles were replaced and reformed. As painful as it may have been for Akashi, he still didn't make a peep throughout the process, unlike Aomine who was almost screaming from the agony the trial caused him, but through the pain he managed to bring his giant blue wings out into the world. With a heavy thrust of their giant wings, both men became air born, both heading in separate directions. With great speed, Aomine rushed for Kise's castle. Kise and his family were the only dragons in the flight who prefer the human life style over their natural habitat. Kise, Kasamatsu, and their two young five year old sians, Kima and Setsu, lived in a large castle that the weyr had built themselves. Unfortunately for Aomine, the castle was miles away fromFerlore and would take a few minutes to get there, a few minutes that he could not waste. He needed to protect the lives of all the dragons in his flight, after all he was the alpha, and he has the responsibility of all the lives that have come to live under his wing. Kagami was the beta of the flight and it was his job to protect the sians and hatchlings from all danger, but the beta Sian had his hands full, caring for an energetic newborn, and was still not fit to come out of the cave let alone fight. Akashi new this much, and that's why he told Aomine to get Kise. Kise was second in line for caretaker, and was the most helpful in these sort of situations.(Kise isn't very helpful at any other time…he's just a pain -)

Not only was Kise a great help, his mate also is very handy when war breaks out. Kasamatsu can use barrier magic, it helps to protect the children from danger that the adults can't reach, but unfortunately it only lasts for three hours.

Aomine had to hurry, if he didn't then the war would start without him, and the historic battle between knights and dragons would begin.
