Kaley was wondering where her dad was, because it wasnearly New Year's Eve meaning there would be another party at their castle going to ask Crystal where her dad was since she was bigger, she might know where he went going to the castle library where the magenta furred and haired girl loved being finding her helping the librarian wondering if Kaley was doing here, hearing her ask where Deadly was, making Crystal get it.

"He went to visit his new friend in China, but he'll be back soon." Crystal told her making Kaley happy that her dad had a friend and hoped they were nice making Crystal get it after helping clean up the library going to get a snack hearing laughter from the throne room asthey entered seeing a female Chinese dragon in a kimono with shoulder length hair with Deadly beside her.

"There you are, I was looking for you, this is my friend, Lotus from China." Deadly told them making Crystal impressed but Kaley was feeling shy around Lotus which Dudley and Sarah got knowing she might be like that, when she started school, so had to help her feel comfortable around new people or kids, magical or human.

"Aww it's alright, let her take her time." Lotus said seeing Deadly abree, plus he could help her with her social skills before she started school, plus they wer about to have tea knowing Kaley liked having tea plus Lotus had brought yea with her making im excited to try.

"Kaley will warm up to you, she just is shy." Crystal told the female dragon, seeing Kaley drinking yea quietly and being quiet while eating snacks hearing Deadly raving about the tea making Dudley smile at this.

Deadly saw Kaley go to her room after a bit, so would check on her later after Lotus left, making Sarah get it so she would help him with that seeing the light blue haired airl playing tea party which was cute letting her be for now.

"Is Kaley alright?" Deadly asked her seeing her nod.

"Yes she's in her room playing tea party." Sarah told him relieving him, so would talk to her later or at bedtime about this, hopimg that her first day of school would go well.


"You know it's alright to be shy or taking your time around new people or ,ids, but there's nothing wrong with making friends magical or human, besides daddy never had any dragon friends until meeting Lotus." Deadly told Kaley.

"How cpme as you're funny, nice and brave?" Kaley asked him.

It was later that nigjt and almost Kaley's bedtime so Ceadly was in his daughyer's room sitting on her bed, with Kaley on his lap because they always had cuddle time like this, and was talking about makimg new friends after her reaction to meeting Lotus earlier.

"Because they were mean, and bullies, but Lotus is very nice, so you can trust her." Deadly assured her hearing her yawn guessing it was time for sleep tucking her in, kissing her forehead going to sleep leaving her room seeing Dudley and Sarah wanting to know how things went.

"We talked about earlier, so things should go smoother when Lotus visits in a few days." Deadly said to them, making Dudley and Sarah happy about this since warming up to Lotus might help prepare her for starting school, so saw him go to bed because he was tired makimg Dudley and Sarah proudof him.
