((Pass yet again. Tempest and Ingrid are just flying around impatiently until they get a move on.))

After some time of collecting items needed for extended travel, Seth and Rosco were ready to go. "Alright, we're ready!" Seth announced to the others. ((How's that for speeding things up? ))

((thanks, that works))
Jorgen and Shock swooped down to meet back up with the others. "All right. And to fill you in, Seth, our first stop will be my old home. You guys will be the first foreigners to see Dovangard since it was destroyed. After that, we'll head to the mainland. Seth, I'll give you a more detailed explanation at Dovangard." Jorgen said quickly before Shock shot out to the south. "You all should try to keep up!" Jorgen called behind him, "I don't think Shock is gonna slow down any time soon!" ________________________________________________
Shockstorm grew tired of waiting and launched to the south. He could tell he had surprised Jorgen, but he didn't care so long as the human was still in his saddle. "ABOUT TIME!!!" roared Shockstorm as he flew to the south, disregarding whether the others were keeping up or not. He had been waiting months for this trip, and he was NOT about to spend it waiting around on Rest Stop!

Darkender did a little streck before taking off at top speed to catch up with Shockstorm, he was existed he never seen or head of this "Mainland" place and he wanted to see if the humans there were nice or if they just kill on site like most of the humans he had met. As Darkender came up to the side of Shockstorm Kyle said to Jorgen" it would be Shockstorm if he slowed down now would it" then he said "it's nice of you to show us your home I would show you mine but that would be very hard"

Tempest, finally able to release her pent up energy, bolted after Shockstorm with the breakneck speeds that she pushed herself to in combat. What kind of Night Fury would she be if she let a Skrill stay so far ahead of her? She slowed down when she got to Shockstorm's side, and settled in at a light glide to stay alongside the Skrill in silence. She grumbled quietly to her rider as she kept her gaze straight ahead, voicing her concearns to her rider in her own quiet way. She wasn't eager to return to the mainland, the last time she was there, her rider had been almost killed, and Tempest had been wounded quite a bit herself.
Ingrid gave Tempest a gentle rub on the neck to try and comfort her. She turned to face Jorgen, "My village, by the way, is Icebreaker Cove, incase you were determined to add that to our trip plan. If we go there, I feel as if we should leave the dragons somewhere that they won't be spotted. The village was very anti-dragon, last time I was there," she called over to Jorgen, before returning her gaze forward. She continued to gently rub Tempest's hide, comforting her in silence after she finished speaking. She knew that even the thought of being seperated from eachother could make Tempest a little...crazy.

"Alright, we'll do our best!" Seth replied to Jorgen.
Seth climbed on Rosco and did a bit of a stretch.
"This is exciting!" He said to Rosco.
Rosco nodded back with a grin.

"Yeah, well, there isn't really a whole lot of my home to see." Jorgen said to Kyle as they flew south. He wanted to ask what Kyle had meant when he said it would be complicated to go visit his home, but figured if Kyle wasn't volunteering the information, then he wouldn't pry. When he heard the name of Ingrid's home, Jorgen nearly fell out of his saddle. "Icebreaker Cove, huh. I know the place. I think I get why you aren't all too eager to go back, if you really don't want to, just say so." he said to Ingrid as they flew along. I can't believe that of all the places to come from, she came from Icebreaker Cove! Although, I wonder if maybe she has some connection to one group that I've heard rumors about, and that I had even encountered once or twice when I had ventured down into Roman territory. Jorgen was also quite familiar with the anti-dragon ideology of Icebreaker Cove, it was pretty obvious with the catapults and flaming crossbow bolts that were shot at him and Shock. If Ingrid is associated with that group, then she might be interested in that one document I have in my personal library in the rebuilt section of Dovangard.

Ingrid shrugged, "If we happen to fly past the Cove, then we might as well stop by and see how my father is doing. But other then that, I don't have any real reason to stay there. That is, unless you guys were interested in stopping there for a while. It might not be a warm welcome, I warn you now," she called over to Jorgen before returning to her usual silence, facing forward in her saddle. The Hunters had always had a presence in Icebreaker Cove, so it had become notoriously anti-dragon. She didn't know if they were still so closed minded, but she wasn't too excited to find out for herself.
Tempest, on the other hand, had only seen Icebreaker Cove from a distance. Even from a ways off, she could still remember the many defenses that the village had to offer. It had been built into a difficult to reach cove, and had a large and heavy metal net spanning from one edge of the cove's entrance to the other under the water, with vicious barbs on it to prevent any sort of creature or boat from getting in without being let in by the guards. Catapults and guard towers dotted the landscape, making flight nearly impossible to do over the village. And just about everyone was trained in how to brutally kill anything that drew breath. The very thought made Tempest shudder lightly.

Rosco lifted off to the skies and joined the group who were hovering above.
"Alright, which direction are we going again?" Seth asked.
Rosco felt a bit uneasy being with dragons he wasn't totally familiar with. It wasn't too much of a problem, but it was on his mind.

We're heading east and south for now, towards my home." Jorgen said to Seth as they flew along. Several hours later, he began to hear a strange swirling sound from up ahead, but couldn't see the source in the dark of the moonless night. "Keep your guard up, I don't like that sound all too well." Jorgen called to the others. A few minutes later, he felt himself flung from his saddle and flew through the air. In a few brief glimpses of his companions, Jorgen saw that they were also being flung around like rag dolls. Great, just great. How could I not recognize a cyclone like that! he thought as he fell, hoping one of the dragons managed to catch him. ______________________________________________________________________________________
Shockstorm was taken completely by surprise when he felt the cyclone tear Jorgen from his back and swat the Skrill from the sky. It took a few moments, but Shockstorm managed to stabilize himself in the high winds and searched for the others. He couldn't find Jorgen, but he saw hunter-girl falling nearby so he went into a dive until he was beneath her then spread his wings before catching hunter-girl, being careful not to impale her on one of his spikes. He couldn't see any of the others, so he flew off to a distance where the winds wouldn't knock hunter-girl off and kept an eye out for the others.

"What did you say!" Kyle shouted not clearly hearing what Jorgen said after a minute Kyle couldn't feel Darkender underneath him any more all he could feel was the wind hitting him from all sides either I'm in a ruff wind tunnel or I flew into a tornado? Kyle though to himself as he waited to be saved
Darkender was worried after feeling a wait being listed of his back and realising that Kyle wasn't there any more, he looked around for Kyle but he couldn't see him what he did see was Seth falling. Knowing that Kyle would of told him to go catch Seth Darkender dived towards Seth and court him by his leg.

Ingrid should have realized what was wrong earlier, but it was too late by the time her head was clear enough to notice. The only thing she could manage was damage control, and even then, that left her with little options. Hitting the ground while attached to her dragon would be a death sentence, especially if Tempest was spending the fall trying to protect her. Instead, she yanked the connecting rope from her saddle and let herself get pulled away by the wind. To her surprise, she found herself caught by the last dragon she ever expected would; a certain Skrill that seemed to trust her less then one might trust the god Loki. But, she counted her blessings, and held herself up in his grip to be less resistance in the air.
Tempest let out a loud roar when she felt her rider release herself from the saddle. As much as she knew that it was a reasonable move, she couldn't help but be terrified for Ingrid. But, not one to throw out a chance to help, she dove forward with the momentum of the cyclone's winds towards the figure of another human. Without the chance to slow down and angle under the human, she could only grab him in her foreclaws, and continue with the dive until she was safely out of the winds of the cyclone. Trying to angle with such a wingspan under those conditions were nearly impossible, so her only choice was to wait before expanding her wings into a smooth recovery. When they were a safe distance from the cyclone, she looked down under herself to see who it was that she had caught in the disaster. She found herself head-to-foot with Shockstorm's rider; Jorgen.

"I agree. I don't like that sound either." Seth said. He kept his guard up, but felt the wind push against him a few minutes later. "Oh no! Ahhhhhh!" Seth screamed as he was pushed off his dragon's saddle. The wind was blowing Seth around violently as he fell towards sea level. "Someone help me!" He yelled, cupping his hands around his mouth. Seth couldn't see anything as he tumbled around in the air. He started to worry about if he would be caught before he made the sudden stop. Although, it was really hard to think in such physical intensity.
_______________________
Rosco instantly knew it when Seth fell off. The wind was so intense he couldn't see where he was falling. In the corner of the Night Fury's eye was a plummeting figure. Rosco decided to dive and catch the human. When the dragon got close enough, he noticed that the figure wasn't Seth, but was Kyle. Rosco grabbed Jorgen and then asked "Has someone got Seth!?".

Jorgen had been terrified when he was falling. He and Shock had practiced stunts and maneuvers like this before, they've been shot out of the sky, but he had always had Shock there to catch or protect him. He knew that from this height, there was no way he could survive the fall, and even if he did, Jorgen would have broken most the bones in his body and be dragged down by his bits of armor until he drowned. How ironic, Jorgen thought, that I survive battles with dragons and humans of all types, even slew the Island Crusher, only to die from a fall. He was contemplating whether he should drop his gear to improve his chances when he suddenly felt something grab onto his ankles and angle slightly until they were no longer in a dive. Jorgen looked down, or rather up, and saw that the dragon that caught him was clearly not his Skrill. The face that looked down at him instead was that of Ingrid's Night Fury, Tempest. "Well hello there, Tempest. Thanks for the save, but if you would be so kind, I can feel the blood rushing to my head..." Jorgen said, all the while hoping Temp wouldn't freak out that Ingrid was missing. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Shockstorm could feel hunter-girl streamline herself in his grasp, but decided he didn't like her being right next to his slightly softer underbelly, so he did a flip and toss that he and Jorgen had performed countless times that would result in hunter-girl landing right in his saddle. As he hovered there looking for others, now well away from the storm, he caught a glimpse of another human, riding a Night Fury. Shockstorm flew in a large circle and sparked static to get there attention, noticing that it was Darkender, who seemed to be carrying the human named Seth.
