Just so y'all know I don't have a beta for this story so It might take a bit longer on uploading this because I have to go through and fix things a couple of times.
Since this pairing is so unpopular I don't think I'll attract too many people.
Oh well, it makes me happy.
Enjoy anyway!~
Chapter 2 Black meets Green
Rage turns her head to look down every corridor the two of us passed. "Would you fucking stop that? It's annoying."
Sorry. I can hear the smile in her voice as she slinks behind me as we approach Area 7. Area7 was an off-limits, Wyrm rider's only section of the school. It was said to have more space, luxuries, and advance fighting areas.
"There's my boy!" Groaning inwardly I turn to see my grandpa approaching. "And a Wyrm rider just like your old grandpa! I'm so proud of you."
He was… proud? Of me? Not Feliciano whom he praised in everything, but me?
Looking up I see Rage poking Remus with her snout, eyes a pale grey.
Remus prods her back and a few seconds later they start clacking teeth at each other in the way dragons communicated with each other. But soon they drop into silence. Then an eruption of clacking teeth started up somewhere down the hall.
Looking over I spot Ludwig's dragon weaving behind him and slapping his tail on the ground. Ludwig just looks at him in confusion and his dragon hops once the shakes his head, making a rustling noise.
"He's trying to communicate with you dumbass." I say as he comes closer. Rage narrows her eyes slightly and the grey in her eyes darkens little. She snorts and steps once. Ludwig stands next to me as he watches the display.
"Do you know what their saying to each other?" He asks as Rage shakes her head from side to side.
"Not all of it. Yours is asking a question but I think Rage is refusing to answer. I'm not sure what he's asking though. Hey Rage, what is he saying." She turns her head to me and drops her head to the ground, a sign of embarrassment.
He keeps asking why my eyes are grey and getting darker. He also wants to know if we will be partnered up. I relay this information to Ludwig who glares over at his dragon.
He gives him a shove. "Fidelity, stop asking stupid questions." Since he was turned away from me his face was hidden from my sight.
"Why is that a stupid question? Aren't Wyrm riders the only ones who get paired off?" He doesn't turn toward me as I speak. "Hey bastard! I'm talking to you." I hear him sigh as he scratches his dragons head.
"That's not exactly what he was asking and I'm sure your dragon knows that." I shoot a questioning look up Rage and she glances away. Ludwig finally turns back to me then frowns. "Where did your grandfather go?" Turning I find my grandpa has decided to run off somewhere. Well, he was the school principal.
"Well, shall he head to Area 7? It's only about three minutes walk from here." He says walking over to look down two connecting corridors.
"Whatever. I'm sure I can get there by myself but I could care less if you tag along." I find myself glancing away to avoid his gaze.
"Are you feeling alright? You're starting to get a little red." He says but before I could shout something at him the ground shakes beneath my feet. A moment later something whipped through the air which sent me sprawling on the ground. Opening my eyes slowly I almost want to slam my head into the ground hard enough to knock myself out.
Almost because I had two gorgeous blue eyes starring right into mine and I was no doubt blushing so red I would make a cherry jealous. Not only was Ludwig's face dangerously close but somehow he had managed to land on top of me in a very suggestive pose.
"Kesesese. Hey bruder. Didn't know you were so eager for mating season." The twin pools of turquoise narrow and Ludwig pulls himself out from in between my legs.
"Gilbert I am going to kill you. Or better yet I'll wrap you up in a pretty ribbon, gagged and tied, to Ivan. Then we'll see just who is eager for mating season." As he stands up he offers me a hand up. But surprisingly I found I couldn't get up. Then the sound of panicked screeching filled the hall followed by a threatening growl.
"Don't just stand there Umbra! Force her off!" Turning my head I see Ludwig's white haired brother frantically waving his arms as Rage shoves a navy blue Winged Grand Wyrm into a wall repeatedly. Someone lifts me into the air and I find myself able to move again.
"Put me down potato bastard!" Ludwig just smiles and complies like he knows something I'm not telling him. Then a crunching noise made me turn back to Rage and Umbra. Rage had her head rammed into a wall right next to Umbra's head and was about to pull back and do it again.
"Rage stop! I'm fine see? Just a little dusty from the floor, that's all." Rage doesn't turn to look at me as I speak but drops Umbra to the floor. He had a few cuts on his white underbelly and one of his eyes was shut. As Rage swings around to walk back to you she spits something on him.
She lowers her head and growls at Gilbert as she finally falls in beside you. Gilbert runs over to Umbra to inspect the damage carefully and Ludwig prods you in the shoulder. "Shall we continue. Even though today is an off day I'm sure your grandfather would want you to meet the other Wyrm riders."
I fall in behind him and glare at his back. Who cared if it was his fucker of a brother who started it, I was still upset.
I think he likes you. Rage says, weaving behind me. He stayed on top of you longer then it would take to get up.
I swat at her head. "Stop saying ridiculous things and get your head out of the clouds." Her upper lip pulls back a little, the dragon expression for a smile.
It is not I who has their head in the clouds Lovino.
This time I kicked at her leg (gently because I didn't really want to hurt her.). But before I could tell her off Ludwig stops to look back at me. "What was she saying?"
"NOTHING! She's just saying stupid things." I glare at her indignantly, my face dusting itself red. I pull her head close to whisper in her ear. "I don't like the fucking potato bastard like that alright? So get the fuck off this subject."
A rumbling laugh spills from her mouth and she picks me up with her teeth to deposit me on her shoulders. Alright. I'll get off the subject of who you want to mate with.
This time I did explode. "Fine! I find him attractive! Actually, I think he's fucking hot. I want him to screw me until I can't feel my lower half for a week. Now shut the fuck up!" I take big inhales before I finally realize what I had just said. Glaring at the back of my dragon's neck I add. "And I don't mean you potato bastard!"
Rage starts walking forward again as she followed Ludwig and Fidelity. Ludwig doesn't speak for a few seconds. "I'm guessing you're talking about Antonio? Technically speaking he can still mate with you. Breeding really only goes on what species breeding season overlaps. Only problem is type wise and since all Wyrms carry the negative allele Rage would only produce Bull dragons."
So he hadn't assumed I had been talking about him. He halts at the foot of two huge doors and knocks seven times. They pull open and Ludwig motions for Rage to follow. I find myself looking around with wide eyes. There were mini caves built high in the ceiling, three levels of different rooms, and a path that led to special training grounds.
"Wait here for a minute okay?" Ludwig says as he hops onto the back of Fidelity. Fidelity sprints a few steps the launches into the air and speeds upwards landing at the mouth of one of the small caves. I climb off of Rage's back and sit down next to her front left leg.
"Well what's this? Aren't you Lovino Vargas?" I glance up to see one of the school's Wyrm riders. Roderich Edelstein, top student and a horrible fighter. On and off the ground. His dragon puffs out a bit of fire and lies down with its head still up. It had deep purple scales with a scarlet belly.
"Yeah, what the fuck do you want?" His eyes narrow at your response and his dragon lets out a hiss which gets drowned out by Rage's growl. Roderich opens his mouth to say something but closes it with a somewhat terrified expression. I look in the direction of his gaze slowly to find one of the most terrifying people of the school leaning against the door post.
"Ah, look at how cute and small he is. He looks so breakable. Tell me you weren't thinking about taking him for yourself Roderich. Mating season is soon da?" As he speaks the newcomer pushes himself off the post and saunters over. But before he can get within throwing range Rage slapped her tail down at his feet which meant she was warning him.
"That's a stupid question Ivan. You know we'll all be trying to get breeding privileges. Not to mention a few Bull riders, Glass riders, and Siren riders." A third voice adds and you feel yourself slowly getting angrier. What did they think you were? A prized whore? The third person comes up behind Roderich and bumps him unceremoniously. "But you and I know Roderich here has no chance of winning."
"How dare you! And I'm your partner no less. You should really be more supportive Vash." Vash rolls his eyes then shakes his head slowly. Instead of saying a reply he leaned over and pressed a small kiss to Roderich's cheek. Roderich promptly exploded in indignation. "I thought I told you to not do that in public!"
Vash just sticks a finger in his ear as if to say he was ignoring him. "I doubt any of you have a chance. Ludwig already made a move on him and our young friend here was quiet, what's the word, ah yes, flustered. The awesome me was there to see it." Gilbert says, walking around the other side of your dragon.
"Which you caused." I add hastily. "And I was not flustered."
"Enough students! Now that I'm sure you have all introduced yourselves you have duties." The vice principal says, climbing off of a large dark green and light grey dragon. Sir Isaac walked over and shot a glare at Gilbert who squirmed.
"What? You said today was a free day gramps." As Gilbert spoke the glare deepened.
"And you have been slacking on your duties. Now get to it. Ivan your sister was looking for you, said she needed help on her studying of Winged Grand Wyrms and Wyverns. Vash can you please locate Romulus, he's been slaking off lately. Roderich I think maybe you and I should go practice your swordsmanship. Ludwig, show Lovino around." Without another word Isaac walks away and everyone goes off on their assigned duties.
The last to go was Vash. He lifted a blue-grey scale to his lips and a split second later a large blue-grey and indigo dragon swarmed down the wall. "This way." Ludwig calls and you walk over to him. "First I'll show you the training grounds. Then our eating areas but we hardly use them because we have kitchens in our rooms…"
~At the End of the Day~
In the end I had been paired up with Ludwig anyway. Mostly because Vash and Roderich made a good team and my grandpa was afraid of what Ivan or Gilbert would do to me. Leaning on the window ledge that showed the inside of Area 7 gave me a perfect view of Rage's cave. And to think just this morning I would have sworn up and down I would never have a dragon at all.
Without finding a reason to do it I twirl around watching my wide sleeves on my night shirt drift through the air. As I flop onto the bed a knock sounds from the adjoining door that led to Ludwig's rooms. Sitting back up I cross my legs. "Come in."
The door opens and Ludwig walks over to sit next to me on the bed. "My grandfather told me to warn you. He wanted me to tell you that mating season starts in two weeks and since you have the only female Winged Grand Wyrm you'll be targeted a lot."
"But not by you right? Because my brother has a glass dragon and I know how much you like him so…" I say, twisting a piece of thread to hide my disappointment.
"Who said I had a crush on your brother?" My head shoots up to see him giving me a curious stare. "Let me guess, Gilbert playing some stupid joke?"
"No, it's just… I always see you looking at him." I say, looking away again.
"Hm… I don't know much about that. Get some rest, we have a big day tomorrow." And with that he gets up and leaves the room. And as I lay down to go to sleep I find myself smiling.
A/N
And so ends chapter 2. So everyone knows Rage is the largest Wyrm dragon because in this story Females tend to be bigger than males. Also faster but not necessarily stronger.
I have a feeling that when we get around to breeding season that some people are going to have the snot beaten out of them.
Eye color meaning:
Grey – Defensive (the darker it gets the more guarded the dragon.)
Next chapter we go on a mission to the mountains so everyone grab your fur coats.
Ciao!~
