Yay! You like me! You really like me! Thanks to all the reviewers. You really keep me going.
One note, however. I chose to use their dub names because I've set the forest villages they live in in America. Remember, this culture came from our own. How many dudes do you know named Jou, hmm? Yeah…I'm not being sarcastic or complaining, I just though you'd all like to know why.
Also, our normal humans have developed their own language, but they still speak English or Japanese…whichever area they live in. I wasn't sure if I'd mention that in the fic, so I figured I tell you all now….on to the story!

"I don't like this place. Earth is so…weird! When are we going home? At least back to the house?"
Seto was beginning to regret bringing along his brother, Mokuba, on this expedition. All the kid did was whine! The two dragon boys were currently deep in the forests of North America. This was were the most reports of "normals' were reported. The forests were actually protected by law, but money can get you places.
The boys were accompanied by their best and strongest body guards, who were weighed down by supplies they might need for the trip. So far, there had been no sign of anything other than animals in this place. It was nearing sundown. They might have to camp out for the night. Seto stopped suddenly, looking around.
"Did any of you hear that? It sounded like talking…." His companions stopped, listening. Mokuba did the same, scrunching up his face.
"I didn't hear anything. It was probably just a squirrel or something."
Seto shook his head, flaring out his wings. This was one of the good things about Earth; plenty of free space to fly. Today he was dressed in a simple t-shirt and shorts, perfect for hiking and flying.
"You guys stay here. I'm going to take a look from above." With that, he began beating his wings, then jumped into the air. His wings lifted him into the air, above the trees. He flew higher, into the clouds, enjoying the moment. He performed stunning acrobatics with ease, slicing through the clouds at full speed. It ended to soon though. He made his decent to check the area. He looked around for a few minutes, not seeing much of anything. He heard a rustle of leaves and turned to investigate. Nothing. But as he was about to turn away and head back, he saw it. Moving through the trees with natural grace. He watched more, noticing blond hair and a bare upper body. Defiantly
human. He flew swiftly back to the group. This was his chance.

Joey made his was through the trees. Someone had informed him that his sister had went off with that Ryuji boy. For Ryuji's sake, he'd better not find them..
The person who told him said they headed in this direction. This way lead to a notorious place for 'lovers'. He was not happy about that. He made his way silently through the trees, finding to pair. Rather then jump them right then, he waited, wanting to see just what was going on. For now, they were just talking.
Ryuji cupped her face in his hands, speaking softly, "Serenity, you know, I've liked you for a long time..and I, well..I wanted to know if you'd be mine.." Serenity blushed and looked away.
"Of course..but, you know my brother doesn't like you very much.." Joey stifled a snort.
"I know. But he doesn't matter. What matters is us." He cupped her face again, bringing them closer together in what would be a kiss. Ryuji tilted his head and closed his eyes in preparation. An was promptly tackled to the ground.
Ryuji screamed as he fell, and was silenced by hitting the ground and having the wind knocked out of him. Joey landed a few feet away. While Ryuji lie gasping for breath, Serenity jumped out of the trees and ran to his side. She turned to her brother, anger clearly shown on her face. "Joey! What do you think you're doing?"
Joey shrugged, walking up to them. "Protecting my little sis, what else? I'm telling ya, he's no good. Besides, its dangerous out here now. We need to head back."
He stooped, picking Ryuji up by the shoulders and turning him to face him. "You'd better run..fast." With that, he released him. Ryuji stood, slightly stunned. Then he nodded and ran off. Joey turned to his sister.
"We need to get out of here. I think 'they're' out here.."
Serenity blinked, confused. Then she realized what her brother was saying.
"For real? Have they actually seen them?"
"Not yet, but I don't want to take any chances." He took her hand and they scaled one of the nearby trees together. The moved swiftly, not wanting to be caught by 'them'. Not far from the village, they stopped to rest. Climbing tees like that wasn't easy. As they sat panting, something was heard walking through the forest. Serenity, who was on a lower branch, looked up at her brother. "Joey.."
Joey waved a hand, silencing her. He watched in the direction of the noise, but saw nothing. A scream from his sister alerted him to danger. She fell out of the tree, and hit the ground with a thud. Something had knocked her out of the tree.
In a flash, people were on her. They spoke English ; obviously 'enhanced' humans. Joey was paralyzed with fear. He'd never seen people like this before. They didn't look normal, and two of them had wings. He watched as the bigger of the winged ones walked over to his sister and picked her up by the hair. That was the last straw, and for the second time that day, he launched himself out of the tree to attack the person that was holding his sister.
The winged boy saw the attack coming and dodged it easily. He let go of the girls hair and restrained her by her arms, twisting them painfully behind her back. In his motion, he lost sight of the blond.
Joey had moved behind the winged boy. He was now holding a rather large rock, getting ready to throw it. He pulled his arm back and threw the rock with all of his strength. It hit the winged boy in the back, causing him to release Serenity in pain. He turned to see his body guards were on top of the boy, holding him to the ground. He was screaming in a language he'd never heard before.
"Serenity, eam ku sede ku tui mer!"
The girl nodded, running up to a tree and climbing it easily. The winged boy walked up to his body guards, ordering them to stand the boy up. When they did, Seto moved to get a better look. The boy was still struggling although he was greatly outmatched. He was screaming and twisting in their arms, trying to get away. He stilled when Seto move closer, glaring at him with all his might.
Seto smirked. This had definitely been a good night. He pulled out his phone and quickly dialed a number.
"Mai, we have one. Prepare a room. We'll be home later tonight." With that he put up his phone, shoving it into his pocket. He went over to the bags everyone had dropped before.
"Hold his head. I don't want him struggling."
Joey began to panic. They held his head to the side, obstructing his view of the other boy. He felt a prick on his neck, then the cool sensation of something being injected. Then he knew no more.

How was it? Good yes? I still can believe I'm getting reviews. dances Unfortunately, I'll be gone over the weekend, so you'll have to wait a bit for the next chapter. Sorry its so short. I could've continued, but this seemed like a good place to end it.
