[O] Adventures in Sheep Watching

[Zenoah]

Shylark fidgeted a bit, watching Runt feed the oddly colored Night Furry. When the Toxic Nightshade appeared she backed down respectfully and saw how irritated she was, nodding back to her den.
It took a bit for Shylark to understand as she nodded.

"Are we...being too loud?" She asked, having seen this dragon more active around nightfall.

[Mordar]

Mordar, who was currently going around the area, simply watching, decided to take a more active role in this group.

He flew at a high speed over the group, thinking to shock them for a bit, and landed nearby.

He stared at them, noticing how many new faces he hadn't yet noticed..

[CJ the Slightly Unhinged]

Seeing as how Runt was so young, the appearance of the Toxic Nightshade was something rather intriguing to him. He'd never really seen the elusive nocturnal dragon up close, and part of him wanted to go over there and get a closer look. At the same time, however, he didn't really want to abandon the Night Fury that had come so close, or the girl he didn't really recognize.

Alas, all of these thoughts flitted away pretty quickly in the next few minutes. Why? Because Mordar's decision to shock the others had one more unintended effect. The sheep immediately panicked, bleating and rushing around in frenzied circles as they tried to decide which way they wanted to stampede.

Only one word came from the wide-eyed, buck-toothed wisp of a boy.

"...Wuh-oh."

[Zenoah]

Without thinking, Shylark picked up the boy and moved him aside to a spot away from the stampeed of sheep.
She set him down, realizing that she had picked him up and looked away.

"D..do you need help rounding the sheep?" She asked, as Malkin trotted up, sniffing them both to see if they were okay.

She gave Mordar a look as if to say 'you need to be more carefull.'

[Autobot Prime]

The sheep were still trampling towards them as their herd was moved safely out of the way. That foolish Night Fury's little prank had made her afternoon even more miserable.

Snarling, Freyja darted towards them ... and turned when she reached the pass Runt headed the sheep through every morning. That little boy didn't deserve such silliness, and the already grumpy dragon halted in front of the pass, using her full length to keep it blocked.

She gave Mordar a black look as she did so. The Toxic Nightshade was not one to appreciate pranks.

[Mordar]

Seeing Freyja's face startled Mordar, and, since he had no intention of being poisoned, he shot straight up into the air, and started to fly around them in circles.

He tended to be quite foolish, and a bit of a troublemaker; he always made sure to never go over the line, as he wasn't one to hurt anyone (other than food of course) since the old days. He would only attack if threatened, and his practices (which he did at night) prepared him for any event like that.

So, at this he decided, just for fun, to dive over a small wooded region and shoot it with his fire.

He made sure no one was in the way of course, and was hoping no one would try to kill him over it. (But, seeing Freyja again, he couldn't be too sure)

((Oh frag, guys, I'm so, so sorry! D8> I was going to post, but got distracted. *embarrassed* I'm sorry I kept everyone waiting. ._. Please continue on, I'll post in a bit.))

[Hi, I'm new Silver is learning how to speak human, but she can't pronounce words. At all. So I'm going to add what she meant to say in () and put<> around her speech when she's talking in dragon. Thankfully, Spike can usually understand her.]

Meanwhile, Spike was fishing in a nearby river and Silver was helping. Silver felt the small tremors of the fireballs that hit the ground. "SSspikE. ViebRtin.. ssSoM hiTing eArtth. TTher (Spike, I just felt vibrations from something hitting the earth over there.)" Silver struggled to say. Spike looked up and took off in the direction Silver indicated. "SSSpIKe!! TU FfOrgOot FIsSSh rODdD aaWAiE!!! (Spike!! You forgot to put away your fishing rod!!)" "I'll get it later!" Spike called back. Silver sighed. "<At least take it out of the water>" She grumbled under her breath. Silver took the fishing rod out of the water and set it on the bank. "<I guess I'll have to make sure Spike doesn't fall off a cliff while I'm away.>" Silver sighed again and went after Spike.

(welcome, amarath! Did you remember to get your character profile written down? Everyone's got one.

Pirateperch saw the sheep scatter and began to run around them, attempting to herd them back together. The few that had escaped were blocked by the Nightshade, but for the most part she regrouped the panicked herd.

Then something very strange happened. She saw a large ram barreling angrily towards the little boy, about to climb onto the rock and knock him off. She closed the distance between them quickly; she felt something light fall on her back; thinking it was the ram, she began to fly a few feet above the ground to hurry the sheep back to the herd.

But wait...sheep legs were not so thick...and it was then the realization came to her.

It wasn't the sheep on her back.

It was the boy.

She dumped him onto the grass (gently, of course) and landed, looking at him. I let a human on my back... she thought, shivering.

She panicked and took to the sky, her thoughts jumbled.

[Mordar]

Mordar was watching again. He wondered whether or not his fireball attack was effective, so.. he did it again! He practiced yet another dive and shot a fireball into the forest away from the group.

He stayed in the air this time, and flew around the group, so he could get a better view of them all. And so he waited.

Spike heard the next fireball as she was running towards it. Well, it definitely isn't a dragon that fell. By now, Silver had caught up to Spike, and they were almost to the area where Mordar was blasting fireballs.
