Jeesh. I'm on an updating spree. Lol. Anyways hope you like it and don't forget to tell me what you think!
They could smell the scent of smoke around them.
The air was getting hotter by the second.
Daisuke was trying not to panic, he couldn't just let them get caught by that dragon. He looked over towards Riku and Risa and saw them trembling. They were really scared.
Daisuke felt something move in his backpack and he practically jumped out of his skin. He took off his backpack and once he opened the flap a white fur ball came flying towards his face.
"Wiz! Get off me."
Wiz was holding onto Daisuke's head for dear life, he was trembling and wouldn't let go. Suddenly Daisuke got an idea how to get them out of this mess.
Daisuke waved Dark over.
"Dark, take Wiz and fly Riku and Risa out of here. I'll distract the dragon, k?" Daisuke whispered.
"Sure, but don't you think the dragon might mistake your red hair for meat?" Dark grinned.
Daisuke blushed," Dark, be serious.....and my hair doesn't resemble anything like meat."
"Whatever. Just don't get eaten." Dark pried Wiz away from Daisuke and put his hand on his head.
Riku and Risa looked over just in time to see black wings sprout from Dark's back. He then ran over to the girls and picked them up, one in each arm. He looked at Daisuke and gave him a "Are you sure about this" look.
Daisuke put on a fake smile reassuring him. Dark then took off and Daisuke looked above the tree tops in front of him. He could then see the dragon coming through the trees, crushing them under its weight and with its massive wings. The dragon was red and had horns down its back. Smoke was coming out of its nostrils and it eyed Daisuke with silted, black eyes.
Daisuke gulped and started running. He didn't really have a plan, so all he could do was look for something to hide in....away from Dark and the twins.
The dragon had sighted its prey and wouldn't stop until it had the little boy in its grasp. It started running and was gaining on Daisuke.
Daisuke was panting and was getting tired when he saw a small cave. He ran towards it and slide into the small opening. The dragon got there a second later and smashed its head into the opening of the cave. Luckily for Daisuke the dragon was way to big to reach him in the small cave.
Daisuke tried to get as far to the back of the cave as he could. All he could see was the dragon's long fangs through the opening to the cave as the dragon tried to push its head through.
Then the dragon roared, and turned around. It cried in pain and Daisuke could hear a person yelling. But the voice he heard was unfamiliar to him; was someone trying to fight the dragon?
One last cry of pain was heard from the dragon and then the sound of wings was heard. Once the sound dispersed, Daisuke crawled out of the little cave. He saw a boy, a little bit older than him. He had brown hair and green eyes.He was wearing a tunic of some kind with baggy pants. Although they were slightly bloody from his previous fight with the dragon. The boy was holding a bow and arrow and had a long broadsword strapped on his back.
"Are you okay?" The boy walked over to Daisuke and helped him up.
"Yeah, thanks for the help with that dragon....you are?"
"The names Adair. Who are you?" The boy said in a strange accent.
"My name's Daisuke."
"Strange name. I guess you're not from around here." Adair looked at what Daisuke was wearing. He could not see a single weapon on him. That was strange to him. Those who entered the forest unprotected were practically asking for death.
"No, I'm not. Is there usually dragons around here?" Daisuke asked with unease. He wasn't looking forward to running into another one.
Adair smiled like he enjoyed the idea of fighting, "Of course! And there's not just dragons either. There's trolls, goblins, centaurs....."
"Ok, ok. I get the point. Anyway, is there any type of village around here? Maybe like a castle of some sort."
Adair sat down on a stump and shrugged. "Yeah, there's a village a few miles outside this forest."
Daisuke heard wings flapping above them and looked up. There was Dark with Risa and one annoyed –looking Riku. Dark landed and put the twins down and grinned at Daisuke."Looks you managed to survive."
"With no thanks to you, Daisuke could have been killed and you just flew away."
"Riku, be nice. Dark got us out of harm's way, and I'm sure Daisuke had a plan." Risa said. She just had to side with Dark on everything, in Riku's eyes.
Riku crossed her arms. "I could have fought with Daisuke too."
Dark started laughing, "Daisuke....fight, you've gotta be kidding me."
"Actually, I fought off the dragon." Adair spoke up.
Everyone looked at the strange boy.
Dark pointed at him, "This scrawny little kid fought off a dragon."
"Scrawny!?" Adair jumped up and had an arrow slung in an instant, aimed right at Dark.
