Ch.23-W is for Wyvern

If you don't know what Wyverns are, they're dragons that have claws at the end of their wings and they use their wings as front legs. Anyway, R and R, please.

Romance/fantasy

Sum: Two wyverns meet and they fall in love after only a few moments.


The dark figure soared through the yellow, sulfur-filled sky. The form was a black wyvern with gray streaks down its back, yellow eyes, and two vicious scars stretching vertically down its right eye, permanently closing the dragon's eyes. The reptile's name was Xigbar, a powerful wyvern protective of his territory.

Xigbar gazed at the dead, bare trees beneath him, his golden eye scanning the ground for any movement, and he soon spotted a form slinking through the sparse woods below. Furious that someone dared to invade his territory after he had clearly marked it with his claws, Xigbar dove down with a roar.


A blonde wyvern slowly walked through the dead forest, blue eyes searching for any sign of life. The wyvern's name was Luxord, from the next territory over, but his hunger had sent him in search of something to eat.

Luxord glanced up when he heard a loud roar and noticed a black wyvern flying toward him.

The black reptile connected with the blonde and the they both rolled over and over before breaking apart from each other.

Xigbar glared at the wyvern before him, tail lashing as he brought himself up to his full height while Luxord cowered, his tail brought around his feet and wing in a show of submission.

What are you doing in my territory? ! Xigbar growled as he took a step closer to Luxord, ready to blast the intruder with a stream of fire.

I-I didn't know it was your territory! Luxord backed up further. My territory's animals have all left and I left in search of food….

Did you not see the marked trees? ! Xigbar looked at the trees surrounding them, claw marks etched into the bark.

I thought a bear had made them.

With a low growl, Xigbar slowly stepped closer to Luxord and began to circle the blonde as he inspected the wyvern before him.

Luxord stayed as still as possible, fearing that Xigbar would attack him if he moved.

You don't seem to be a bad wyvern. Xigbar said after a few minutes as he sat in front of Luxord.

Luxord hesitantly smiled, revealing his sharp fangs. Th-thanks.

Wait. Xigbar grabbed Luxord's shoulder as the blonde wyvern turned to leave.

Luxord looked at Xigbar. Yes?

You're kinda cute.

The wyvern blushed as he backed away. Well, that isn't blunt.

I'm serious. Xigbar leaned his face closer to Luxord's. Didn't you feel it when we locked eyes? That connection?

I-I guess I felt….something. Luxord kept his gaze away form Xigbar, but the black wyvern placed his claws underneath Luxord's chin and forced him to look at Xigbar.

Does that not mean anything to you? Xigbar's eye narrowed in sadness rather than hate. Don't you feel like this was meant to be?

I guess.

That a yes or no? Xigbar retracted his talons, but Luxord didn't look away from him.

Yes.

Xigbar smirked as he backed up.

Then….shall we?

Luxord watched as Xigbar took to the sky before he slowly followed after and the two wyvern flew higher and higher, circling around each other as they did so.

Once they had achieved a sufficient heights, the two clasped their back claws together and spiraled back down to the earth.

Five feet from the ground, Luxord and Xigbar disconnected, spewing a blast of flames in the process, and landed across from each other.

Xigbar smiled as Luxord blushed.

Do you regret that?

Luxord shook his head. No, I don't.

Xigbar chuckled before he gently rubbed his muzzle against Luxord's cheek before stepping closer as the blonde wyvern returned the connecting of hearts snuggle.


If you didn't know what that was, that was a mating dance that dragons and bald eagles do. The snuggling thing just added cuteness. :3 Next chapter is Xenolith. R and R, please.
