Ymke quickly put Ayla back into her cage, which took a long time. Rusty and her then walked outside to see where they have landed. It seemed to look like the one they had previously stopped at. There were a few homes but lots of people. It amazed Ymke how so many people could live in a town with few houses.
The two walked down to the town, heading towards the forest. Both were looking for a place to where the three of them could hide for who knows how long.
"Hey! I think I found a nice place to stay at!" Rusty announced.
Ymke ran over to where Rusty was and saw that he was pointing to two boulders.
"Um..." Ymke said in confusion.
Rusty rolled his eyes and directed Ymke towards the hole that was created by the two boulders and soon found themselves in a cove. The cove had a medium sized lake and a cave on the side of it.
Ymke smiled. "This is a nice place. Okay so now that we found a place, we'll just leave at night when everyone is asleep." Ymke explained.
Rusty nodded. The two then began to make their way back to the ship.
The two were busy packing some supplies that would last them a couple of days. By the time they were done, it was about nighttime.
'Huh, perfect timing.' Ymke thought.
When everyone was asleep, Ymke told Rusty to go ahead and she'll meet him at the cove. Rusty did as told and quietly made his way off of the ship. Ymke took out the key she had hidden in her boot and walked over to where Ayla was kept.
She opened the door and saw that Ayla was sitting in her cage, looking at her.
"Where you waiting for me this whole time?" Ymke whispered.
Ayla nodded.
Ymke smiled and walked over to the cage, quickly unlocking it. Ayla bolted out of the cage, happy to be finally let out after waiting for almost a whole day.
"Ayla! You have to be quiet!" Ymke whispered in a angry tone.
Ayla simply rolled her eyes and walked out of the room with Ymke close behind. When they got off the boat, Ymke stepped in front of Ayla and explained that she'll lead the way. Walking through the village was harder than Ymke thought. Ayla would constantly walk away from her to see some object that fascinated her and then Ymke would come over and drag her away.
Eventually, the two made it to the cove. Rusty was sitting by the lake when he heard the sound of someone coming into the cove. He turned his head to see a annoyed Ymke pulling Ayla by the arm.
"Took you guys long enough..." Rusty mumbled as he stood up.
"Sorry, this one hear kept wandering off." Ymke said and glared at Ayla, who had wandered away from the two yet again. She was now by the lake, staring at her reflection.
Ymke and Rusty headed inside the cave and began to set up their 'beds' for the night. Once they were finished, they soon fell asleep, leaving Ayla the only one awake.
Ayla, now tired yet, walked around the cove thinking about what was possibly happening back at her home.
"I hope the others are doing okay..." She whispered and looked at her wing. The cut was still there, but it seemed like it could heal in a few couple of days. She sighed and looked up at the moon. She then curled up and closed her eyes, soon falling asleep.
Ymke woke up to the sound of a dragon roar. She quickly ran outside, thinking that a dragon was attacking them. But she just saw Ayla sitting down by the lake.
"Um...Good Morning Ayla.." Ymke greeted, slightly confused.
Ayla turned her head to look at Ymke and nodded before looking back at the lake.
Ymke smiled and looked around. 'Rusty must not be awake yet...it's amazing how he can sleep through a dragon roar...' She thought.
Ayla suddenly stuck her head in the water. When she pulled out her head, a fish could be seen in her mouth.
Ymke let out a small laugh, Ayla did look pretty funny with a fish in her mouth as well as a mess a wet hair.
Ayla dropped the fish down and rested a hand on the fish. She closed her eyes and concentrated, soon a blue glow covered her hands. She then took her hand off of the fish to revealed that it had been cooked.
Ymke looked at Ayla with a surprised look.
"H-How did you do that?!" Ymke asked.
Ayla looked at Ymke then at her hand in confusion but soon got it.
"Oh right, Wingless don't have this power. Well, um, when Halflings are in their half form they can produce fire through their hands instead of their mouth. But they still have a shot limit." Ayla explained as she got up and walked away, leaving a confused Ymke.
Ayla curled up, leaving her broken wing out. and closed her eyes.
She then opened her eyes when she heard something close by. She looked up and saw Ymke looking at her wing and glared at her. Ymke, after minutes of looking at Ayla's wing finally noticed that said Halfling was glaring at her. She quickly got up and walked away.
Ayla rolled her eyes and closed them again, soon falling asleep.
When she woke up it was almost sunset. 'How long was I asleep?' She thought and sat up, looking around the cove for Ymke.
Ayla found Ymke sitting on a rock by the lake, quietly humming a song. Ayla tilted her head and quickly made her way towards Ymke, her humming becoming louder every step she took.
Ymke, on the other hand, didn't notice Ayla behind her and continued to hum a song that her mom used to sing to her when she was little.
She suddenly stopped humming when she heard a purring sound. She looked back and saw Ayla sitting down with a smile. Ayla's smile turned into a frown when she heard that Ymke stopped humming and was about to walk away.
Ymke began to hum again, causing Ayla to purr again and stop walking. Ymke tilted her head to the side and stopped humming. Once again, Ayla frowned and began to walk away. Ymke got up and began humming again. This time Ayla smiled and slowly walked over to Ymke, to her surprise. Ymke held out her hand which caused Ayla to growl. Ymke quickly pulled her hand away and closed her eyes, leaving her hand out in front of her. Ayla stared at Ymke's hand before placing her hand on Ymke's.
The two stayed like this for a moment before Ayla smiled mischievously and pushed Ymke into the lake.
Ymke yelled in surprise and fell into the water. She resurfaced and saw Ayla laughing. Ymke rolled her eyes and climbed out of the lake. Ayla continued laughing but was soon stopped when she felt something push her and the feeling of water.
Now it was Ymke's turn to laugh.
Ayla huffed and climbed out of the water. She shook the water off of her body, getting Ymke even more wet.
"Hey!" Ymke exclaimed.
"Oops...sorry..." Ayla mumbled and sat up straight.
"It's okay." Ymke said and smiled.
Ayla smiled back and looked up at the sky.
"It's almost dark. Where's you friend?" Ayla asked.
"Um...I don't know he left awhile ago." Ymke answered when suddenly they heard something coming through the entrance.
Rusty stumbled out of the entrance with some wood in his hands.
"Uh, did I miss something?" He asked, looking at the two with confusion. 'Why are they wet?' He thought.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Until next time, Ride On Dragon Riders!
