It's a few days before the show now, Kalecgos and I are in the staff house, practicing the routine which I know now. The only thing I didn't got to do yet is the lift. So we're practicing the routine again. "Back. Easy." He says as we turn around, I'm looking at him now. "And turn, turn." He makes me turn and then lift me up. "Down." He says as he put me slowly down on my feet while my body is against his. He makes me turn around and stops for a second. "And lift. You'll learn that later." He says as we turn around again. "And come on." He says while nodding at me. "Down." We both kneel, me facing him. "Twist." He says and I turn around so I'm kneeling next to him now. "And the bow." He says as we both bow our upper bodies back and he groans. I stand up and help him up. "Sorry. Sorry." I say as he walks a few steps and then leans forward. "You trying to kill me?" He asks annoyed. He rubs his lower back a bit. "You gotta concentrate! Is this your idea of fun?" He roars a bit, I put my hands on my waists and look at him with a stern look on my face. "As a matter of fact it is." I say in a sarcastic way, making him look at me. "We do the show in two days, you won't show me lifts, I'm not sure of turns." I pause a little as it made me angry somehow, and I see him standing straight now. His eyes glowing now, but I'm not scared of him. "I'm doing all this to save your ass, but I'd rather drop you on it!" I say and exhale deeply, giving a frustrated sigh. He's surprised about my reaction, but it also turns him on somehow. "Let's go." He says and we walk outside. It starts to rain now, first time I see it rain here, and we walk to a spot behind a hill.
I thought we would be going to the place where the carriages are but he'd brought me here instead. "Why are we here, Kalec?" I ask curiously and he turns to look at me with a smile. "I don't travel by carriage." He says, I'm confused now. "I'm going to show you something." He says and waits a moment. "It's something not many people know of me, and it's something I would like you to keep to yourself as well, Jai." He says, he gives a deep breath and looks down. "What do you want to show me, Kalec?" I ask now, he takes my hands now and looks up in my eyes. His eyes are taking my breath away, they're glowing a very deep blue hue now. "I'm not a Human, so please promise me that you won't tell anyone. Not even your brother Derek." He says, my mouth drops. "How did you.." He interrupts me. "I can hear from miles away if I focus on someone." He winks and I start to blush now. He cups my cheek with one hand. "No worries, I also can see from miles away and I see that your brother is very faithful to his promise that he made." He says. "He also thinks you're not Human." I say and he only smiles. "Many people are suspicious about that, because they see my mixed form." He says. "Why are you having a Human mixed with High Elf form?" I ask curious now, it's something I wonder about since the first time I saw him. "I love things from both races. It sorta went automatically the first time I took the form and I kept it like this." He explains with a smile. "But what are you, if not a Human?" I ask now, though I did had my suspicions already since a few days. "I'll show you, but first promise me." He says and I nod. "Promise me that you won't tell anyone." He says again, I see he's really serious about this. "I promise." I say and he smiles again. "Please, don't be scared either. I know how Humans and other races react when they see my real form." He says, letting my hands go and taking some steps back. I swallow a little as I wait for him to take his true form. I see blue magic swirling around him and then I see him growing and hear him growling, my eyebrows went up as he stretches his wings now. He's huge and blue, very much blue. My suspicions about him being a dragon are true after all. He looks at me and awaits my reaction, sometimes some people have a longer reaction time than others. I walk to his head slowly and he sees me coming. He lowers his head, I smile as I lay my hand carefully on his snout. "You're not afraid." He says with a very deep voice now, I got the shivers but good ones not bad ones. "No. I'm not, Kalec." I say and look at his eye, he smiles a little now. "You're gorgeous." As I look at the rest of his body. "Thanks. No one ever told me that before." He whispers, it's still raining hard but I'm already soaked now. Not that I care, I just couldn't keep my eyes off him now. "You're from the Blue Dragon Aspect?" I ask as I look back at his eye. "Yes. Malygos is my grandfather." He answers. "Balacgos is blue too I suppose." I say. "Yeah, though he has a little purple on his body since he's from a mixed clutch." Kalecgos says lifting his head up a bit. "That explains his purple eyes he sometimes has." I say as I just solved another mystery. "Yeah, he sometimes finds it hard to conceal them." Kalecgos says.
He looks at my body now and sees I'm soaked. "You're getting wet, right?" He asks in a teasing tone while a wing moves over me. I giggle a bit as I look at him. "Let's go." He says and lowers his shoulder. "You want me to sit on your back?" I ask, being very surprised now. "Of course. How else will we be going to a place where I can teach you the lift?" He asks, I got a little nervous now. "You'll be fine, Jai. I won't drop you." He whispers, I give a little sigh and climb on his back. "Hold on." He says and I tried, he jumps into the air and starts flapping his wings. The sensation went very deep and I felt a little overwhelmed, but he flies away from the island. It takes some moments for me to get use to the feeling. But once I was, I start to smile widely, he turns his head to look at me and he sees my smile now. It makes him smile as well, then he makes a few moves. "You're wild!" I shriek a little, he looks at me again. "What?" He asks with a grin. "You're wild!" I shout now and he chuckles a little. He dives a little and slowly lands at the forest in Silverpine Forest. He let me get off his back and then he turns back into his Human form. I smile at him as he takes my hands. "That was amazing." I whisper. "I'm glad you liked it. Let's practice that lift." He walks with me into the forest and he looks around while I only could look at him. Somehow, now I know about his true self, I find him even more gorgeous. I take a deep breath as he looks at me with a smile. We stand still at an undeep and small ravine. I see a fallen tree that lays over the ravine. He takes his shoes off and I did too.
He steps on the tree and walks to the middle, holding both his arms up for balance. He turns and looks at me. I sat myself down at the roots of the tree, watching him. "Don't you have a great balance as a dragon?" I ask and he chuckles. "You have no idea how clumsy dragons can be." I giggle about his answer. "Now, the most important thing to remember in lifts is balance." He explains and he jumps once, then he almost lost his balance and walks a little back and forth, trying to regain his balance. "Whoa! Whoa!" I giggle a bit as I grab a few roots since I felt the tree shaking from the jump he did. "I got it now." He says and smiles at me. He sits down on the tree and I watch him. "So where'd you learn to be a dancer?" I ask as I'm wondering why he choose to be like this. "Well, this guy came into this tavern one day and.." He takes a deep breath. "We were all sitting around doing nothing." I only smile at him, he smiles back at me. "And he said that the Guardian Medivh was giving a test for instructors at his tower." He pauses a little. "So, if you passed.." He looks down for a second and then back at me. "They teach you different dances, show you how to break them down, teach them." He says. "Medivh?" I ask a little curious now. "Yeah. He wanted a few instructors in his tower to teach dancing to his guests." He explains and I giggle a bit, trying to picture that. "I guess after Medivh died. I sorta keep hanging on the instructing part of dancing. It's how I got at the Retreat eventually." He pushes himself on his feet and he starts to grin at me. "What?" I ask suspiciously, he tries to kneel and then signs with his index finger at me to come to him, pointing at the tree while his eyebrows move up and down. "No." I say, he stands straight again and walks to me, holding both his hands out to me. I take his hands and stand up, slowly we step to the middle of the tree. "Good." He says with a smile. I look down for a second and we nearly lost our balance, I shriek a little but a giggle followed. "Don't look down. Look here." He points at his eyes, I look in his eyes. "Good." He nods as we take our frames. We tried to dance a little but start to laugh more and making funny moves instead.
Kalecgos takes me to the open field not far from the lake in Silverpine Forest. "Why are we in Silverpine?" I ask curiously, I do like the environment here but it's so close to the City of Lordaeron and that's where Arthas is. I look at the castle in the distance and give a deep sigh. Kalecgos is watching me. "Something's wrong, Jai?" He asks silently, making me look at him again. "No. It's not really important." I say and smile at him. "Let's start." I turn to him, he smiles at me but knows something is bothering me. "I'm going to stand a bit back and you run to me, okay?" He asks and I nod at him. "And.." He signs me to run to him and I did. "Now, bend your knees and go up." He says as he's taking several steps back. "Go, go." He says and I ran to him. I jumped a little, but it wasn't high enough. "Good try." He smiles and I smile at him again. "Now, you'll hurt me if you don't trust me, alright?" He asks, I give him a nod with a smile. I do trust him, I trust him with my life, I mean, I've sit on his back while he was in dragon form. He takes several steps back again and looks at me again. "Now, go, go. Go." He says and I ran to him, bending my knees and jump. "Good. Now, you're gonna go up." He says taking several steps back again. He waits for me and I run to him again, doing the same like before and jump up. Which is now a little too high and he lost balance and fell backwards with me on top op him. I shriek, and we both begin to laugh as I roll off him and lay on my back. "That was a little too much." He says through his laughing. "I bet, it was unexpected." I say as I giggle now while I look at the sky. We keep laying like this for a bit. "The sky's beautiful." I whisper, he turns his head to look at me and smiles a little. "It certainly is." He whisper, I turn my head and look at his eyes, they're glowing and my heart is beating in my throat.
"You know, the best place to practice lifts is in the water." He stands up and helps me getting up as well. He keeps holding my hand as we walk to the lake. "We're going to swim now?" I ask and he chuckles a bit. "You're wet already, it shouldn't matter." He winks and I look at my clothes. I'm wearing a white top, it must have been a nice sight for him the whole time now. I watch him taking his shirt off, he's very masculine and has a little chest hair, which is also blue. I smile as I look at him and he sees my face. "Come." He says and we walk into the water. "It's cold." I whisper and he hugs me a bit, I feel his body glowing to warm me up and that's a very nice feeling. "Better?" He whispers and I give him a nod. We're facing each other now and he smiles at me. "Just bend your knees." He says, I lay my hands on his shoulders. "And... go." He says and I jump, he pushes me into the air, his hands on my hips. "Spread your arms for balance." He says and I did. "Good." He says but then I lost balance and I dived as he fell back. I swim back to him and he throws he hair out of his face. I stand in front of him again and jump up. "Good. Good." But then he falls back again, I giggle a bit when I swim back to him. He gives me a nod and a smile, I jump up again and he push me in the air. "Now hold the position." He looks at me. "Hold it." I'm trying my best to hold my balance. "Good." He says with a smile, I look at him and my focus is gone. "Don't break! Don't break!" He says and I shriek when I dive into the water again and he falls back again. We both laugh again while I swim back to him, his hands go through his hair and when I stand straight, the left strap of my shirt glides down. I giggle a bit as I push it back up on the moment he wanted to help me. He looks at my back and swallows once, not showing his attraction to me. "Let's do it again." He says, I nod at him as I lay my hands on his shoulders again. I see his face and take a deep breath, I could see his eagerness and I quickly look at his chest. "Alright. One, two, three." I jump up and he pushes me up, making him cough a little in the process because of the water. "Oh, sorry." I say, he takes a step back and I try to get my balance. "Good." He says as he takes another step. "Keep... No, don't." He says while falling back again, I swim back to him. "It's not too bad." He says as he takes his hair out of his face again. "One more time." I say, it's getting slowly to dinner time. "Okay. Over my head." He says as I lay my hands on his shoulders again. "Go." I jump up. This time it went a lot better. "Good." He says. "This is it, Jai." He then he bends his knees so I'm in the water again. I smile widely at him and he chuckles about my face. "You found your balance." He says. "One more time?" I ask now, he nods and we did it one more time.
After that we went to the shore, I sit down and shiver again. "I'll make a fire." He made a twitch with his hand. "No fire-breath as a dragon?" I ask teasingly, he laughs. "You're loving it too much, missy." He says and I giggle as I watch him making a fire with magic. "That's awesome, one day I will learn how to do that as well." I say with a smile as I move closer to the fire. "I can teach you if you want." He says. "Would you do that?" I ask and start to grin. "Of course." He chuckles. "But dry up first." He winks as he sits down as well. We're drying up and he's teaching me how to make a fire. "You need to control the magic within you." He says. "Focus on it. Only then you'll be able to do anything you want." He explains and I look at him, he smiles as he looks at me. "You'll be a great Mage one day, Jai." He silently says and I look down. "What if I'm not that good as it seems?" I ask now. "I can see the magic within you and I'm sure that Antonidas will teach you correctly how to use it." He looks at the castle of the city at the other side of the lake. "Why can't you do that, Kalec?" I asks curiously, I would love to learn from him. "Because I'm a dragon." He looks back at me with a little smile. "The Blue Dragon Aspect are the guardians of magic in this world." He explains and looks down. "I can teach you how to make a fire, but I can't teach you everything." I observe him now. "We use the magic in a different way, Jai." He looks back at me now. "We're not allowed to show or even teach the younger races. That's how grandpa says it." He gives a deep sigh and lays down on his back. I focus on my magic and try what he taught me for making a fire, my hand twitches and I made big eyes now. Kalecgos looks at me and smiles. "There you go. You did it." He says and I hold up my hand with a little fireball hovering on my hand. It's not even feeling warm, I'm totally in awe that I did it. "Don't tell anyone in the Kirin Tor that you got this from me, Jai." I look back at him and smile widely. "I promise, Kalec." I say and close my hand so the fireball is gone. I lay down next to him and look at the sky again.
