CHAPTER FIFTEEN

The boys looked up in surprise at the woman. She had seen everything. Drayko had an irresistible urge to cover himself, but felt it didn't really matter if she'd already seen the whole show, still, he settled for crossing his legs slightly so that his lower bits weren't showing.

"You're...impressed...?" Folki said in a hopeful tone.

She patted his head happily, kneeling beside him. She acted like Drayko was still a dragon. This was fine with him.

"Of course. You know, I've been noticing all the little things you do for me Folki..." she said, her voice going low. "Maybe we should hang out sometime." She said with a smirk.

Folki's eyes widened a cautious smile on his lips. "You mean..." he fixed his mangled glasses, "...like a date...?" he asked. She gave a small giggle. "Yes Folki, like a date. See you tonight then." She walked away without another word.

The two boys stared at the girl as she left, surprise clear on their faces. Folki flopped onto his back, closing his eyes. Drayko leaned over the black haired boy, examining him.

The boy had a small smile playing his features, when he felt the coolness of Drayko's shadow he opened his eyes a hugged the dragon-boy, causing the blond to yelp in surprise.

"You just got me a date with the hottest girl in the village!" he yelled, laughing happily. Drayko joined in the laughing, though not as heartily.

Though it irritated Drayko to realise, he actually did like Folki. He snorted. After all that fuss about hating him so much and he ended up liking him.

He stared at the boy for a while. "You know, you remind me of a friend of mine." The blond said. Visuals followed his words. Fishnut staring at the fisherman's daughter, complaining about his 'annoying' sister, then him instinctively protecting his sister from the potential threat, the fear in his eyes as he tried to get her to leave the cottage, his silent stare before he lifted off, leaving behind the once pleasant village.

Folki watched his dragon's expression go from remembering to bitter and grieved, though the blonds smile never faltered. It was clear to the boy that Pendragon most certainly did not wish to speak about his life before his village.

"So," the black haired boy stated, trying to lighten the now heavy mood, "why don't we go back to the house and get you some clothes?" Drayko looked up at the boy like he had just noticed he was there. He nodded, standing until he heard the giggles of small children.

He turned, looking at a few young girls. No older than thirteen years old and they giggled at him like school girls. He blushed, diving into the nearest bush.

Folki laughed. "Maybe I should just run up to the house and bring some clothes back..."

"You think?" Drayko hissed, shooing the boy away. "Hurry up!" he demanded.

-HEYLOOKIT'SALINE-

Drayko looked at his reflection in the water. Folki had given him some of his for-the-future clothes. Apparently, his father figured that he was going to grow quite a bit, even though it was obvious that though Folki had a decent build, he wasn't ever going to be very large.

The pants were surprisingly soft for leather, the vest and boots were covered in soft fur. It reminded him of the brown version of the green clothes he wore in Berk. Only he figured he'd gotten slightly bigger in the months he had been gone. He found it a bit funny that he had been surprised that his human form had kept growing when he was a dragon, as if one simply didn't exist so long as the other was in place. What a silly thought.

Folki had found him a knife to cut his hair back, it was still long, but it wasn't in his eyes anymore.

He smiled. He liked having his human body back again. It felt familiar, and he didn't feel all the strange organs that dragon's had. You never knew how much you noticed about your body until you had a new one.

It was getting darker, but of course, Drayko never really had any trouble with the dark. That and he figured he was scarier than anything the woods would have to offer.

A human who could turn into a dragon, a dragon with human intelligence, a human with dragon's brute strength and talent. Not to say that dragon's weren't smart, just a different way of thinking. For instance, if some was loud and annoying, a dragon would simply destroy it to end the sound, however a human would probably try to trick whatever it was into silence. Like a snooze button on one of hiccups weird morning screechers.

He smiled. He missed his home, though he'd never admit it. But of course, he'd never be allowed back anyway, he'd almost ripped someone's throat out, regardless of that someone being a prick and a horrible person, the memory would stick. If he could do that to one person, what would stop him from killing someone else?

Of course, he had no idea whether or not Gareth had died.

A horrible thought occurred to Drayko. If Gareth had died, that would make Drayko a murderer. Somehow that thought was more horrifying than the actually killing him part. Again, he didn't know if Gareth had died or not. He prayed that Gareth had not died, if not because he was a person and thus deserves to live, for Drayko's sanity.

A sound caused Drayko to turn.

Eira walked down a deer path, the moonlight made her look surreal.

"Oh, hello Eira, how was that date with Folki?" he asked the girl. She was silent, a dark smile creeping along her face, as if she knew a rather inappropriate joke that Drayko should know.

She backed him into a tree, playing with his hair, a slow chuckle escaping her mouth.

"w-what are you doing?" Drayko demanded. She ignored him again, kissing the side of his neck causing him to shiver involuntarily.

He shoved her back, forcing his eyes to re-focus.

"What in Thor's name are you doing? You were on a date with Folki only a few minutes ago!" he hissed at the girl. He supposed that this was her horrible trait.

"Oh..." she pouted drawing aimless circles on the blonds' chest, "Folki's nice and all, he certainly likes buying me things, but I don't think he'll be of much use the way I want him to..." she trailed off, but her expression was enough. She smiled. "I saw the way you looked at me the first time you saw me." She gently bit his ear, "don't tell me you don't want it."

Drayko swallowed hard, his heart in his throat, he frowned. "I'm sorry Eira, but I really feel like that would be the wrong thing to do." He pushed her away again. "And I already have a girl in mind..." as soon as he said it he wanted to take it back. Tofa was long gone and he was never to see her again. Still, it felt like he was cheating as he stood there holding back the beautiful girl. Couldn't hurt to be honourable.

She gave a small, low growl. Something flashed under her eyes. Anger?

"No one says no to me." She hissed, twisting Drayko's hand to the point that he wanted to yell.

She pinned him to the ground, a strange amount of strength came from her small arms. She hissed, the sound came out like a snake.

He stared up at her as she began to change. Her eyes stretched sideways, becoming slitted and dark green. Her legs slowly joined together and grew, forming a long green and pale sand coloured snake tail. Her canines grew impossibly long, long enough that she could no longer close her mouth over them. Her skin took on the same sort of scales-that-aren't-there look to them, only her skin looked normal on her, if you could call it normal.

He shrieked, fear made his blood run cold. She shrieked back at him, bits of saliva splattering his face. She bit into his stomach, injecting a clear liquid into his core. Heat swam from the wound.

He gave one last shriek before the heat swallowed his vision and everything became black.
