(a/n)now i did say it might take forever to post another chapter didn't i? this is a long chapter but it had to be done, read it, enjoy it, love it!

After the long night on her first actual bed the ancient red dragon stretched her talons and her wings wide. "That had to be one of the best sleeps I've ever had!" she chimed with a grin, something about this castle just made her happy. "Hmmm I wonder where Caim is?"

At that point Caim was actually in another room a few floors lower designed for humans, he too had had one of the best sleeps in a long time. he looked around to notice the little blue cat that had lead him to his room was no longer there, after a brief moment of panic he realized that he was probably with Kiri. "What is wrong with me...?" he thought " why am I so keen on this little cat, why do I feel so different, is my bloodlust that once kept me alive really gone?" he pondered this thought for a while before a familiar voice rang in his ears...

"Wake-y wake-y little man!"

"Ohhh not her... she's so annoying." he whined to himself as the drapes snapped open nearly blinding him.

"Come-on come-on! You'll miss it!" he couldnt help but think to himself "miss what?"

"You'll miss breakfast!"this snapped him awake beacase at that very moment he realized...that he was starving! He did not want to miss a good meal.

"Come-on hurry! They don't actually make a big breakfast often, were lucky to catch it!" he popped up and looked for his normal clothing and armor, and didn't find them.

"Ohhh right your stuff's bein' fixed and cleaned, there's clothes in that wardrobe thingy there." she pointed to the large wooden thing in the corner. "I'll wait outside to show you the way."

"Hmmm maybe she isn't so bad after all..." he wondered to himself and rifled through the clothes and found something decent for himself to wear and proceeded to follow Cougs. What he didn't realize was that breakfast was still half an hour away, but he had to get through the castle on his own two feet, where he had been carried once before, the excited Cougs and him quickly got separated and he was completely lost. With no voice to call out to Cougs it took her a while to find him and by the time they got to the dinning hall, he was exhausted .he quickly forgot it though, in the grand dinning hall he saw the most awesome table, it had to be a mile long to fit all the creatures who were there, huge dragons of every color, griffins, chimaeras and creatures has never seen before, he suddenly realized that this wasn't just a refuge for dragons but all surviving magical creatures left on the planet.


The table was in tiers different levels for different sized creatures all sorts of foods, he was offered a spot between Cougs and another strange talking big cat.

"Leahpor! You came to this 'little' shindig?"

"Yes I did, many were called here, it seems your friend here and the big red dragon he came with are overnight celebrities!"

"Really?"

"Mmm hmmm, Kiri and Aquarius seem to have an announcement to make."

"An announcement? About them?"

'Well I don't know, maybe..."in a loud booming voice over the active crowd, the dragons began to speak.

"Hush hush now, I know we're excited about our guests, but there is more important things we must attend to first." the leader of the water dragons remarked to those at the table

"yes it seems the dark dragons are making some moves of their own, they aren't just relying on the fire dragons brutality anymore, more and more of the fire dragons are beginning to doubt the reason for the war and the dark ones are losing loyalty, so they have began to attack on their own, to try to confuse the others into attacking each other."

"Even as we speak though, a small clan of sky dragons are beginning to believe that the earth dragons attacked them with the help of humans, and we are having a hard time convincing them it wasn't earth dragons at all, but the dark dragons with their trickery."

The bewildered Caim could only gap as the two continued.

"It is believed that if we don't do something the sky dragons will re-convince the fire dragons that this war is necessary and join them and the dark dragons plans. This is a very bad thing."

"At this weeks end a meeting of the leading elemental dragons will begin, and we will see if we can convince the clan members to call off this war."

from the back came a question directed to the leaders "what about the humans?"

"Our war has ravaged their world, they are beginning to doubt that they can win out over the powers of the fire dragons, and they are prepared to do big damage to our entire kind to save the world, if this war cannot be stopped, they may lose everything that they have worked for entirely."

"The humans aren't fond of any dragon kind at the moment, but could you, really blame them?" Kirisaidsorrowfully into the crowd. There was quiet murmuring through out the hall and Caim could see the anguish and pain on the faces of many of the creatures there, as could Angeles. "This war has taken more out of them, their entire planets in turmouil, and I thought I had it bad..." Caim thought quietly to himself. As for Angeles, she could only think to herself "I hope the talks go well, or the worst may be yet to come."

"On a lighter note!..." Kiri suddenly said cheerfully "we do have guests to humiliate...err hmm hmm I mean welcome!" Caim looked about nervously "like that fella down there, he looks like a big tuff guy huh? Well he absolutely loves my little buddy Alexander! In his little form, aww how kewt!" Caim blushed as he was stared at "and then there's her, now how old are you again??"

"Non of your business!" she said defensively but with a hint of laughter in her voice. The sudden change in subject granted everyone their appetite back and the went on with the meal but the thought of the war still loomed on the back of every head.
