"I know, sweetie."

"So go ahead with Akalia's idea perhaps." he said.

"Ok.", Brutas said. She slwoed time and walked over to Severus. She careful stripped him of all his weapons, then unfroze time/ She picked Severus up in her claws.(now would be a good time for Alhponse to come back)

((He is still 'bout a quarter mile away.))

Franarch smiled and Akalia hid behind Kalisthander.

(for cryin out loud! he's fricking slow!)

Severus began panicking. "Please don';t eat me...", he pleaded. "Why shouldn't I?"

((Uhhhh...There's alot of brambles.))

Franarch shook his ears, then said, "Go on, Brutas. He tried to kill you and he might have tried to kill me. But most of all, he tried to kill Akalia."

Brutas lifted up Severus above her open mouth, and began to drop him.

Suddenly, an arrow flew from nearby bushes and caught Severus by his shirt collar, flinging him aside. Alphonse stepped out of the flora with his crossbow by his side. Two giant and black hounds with red paws ran from the bushes now behind him. He flipped onto one as the other ran beneath his partner. "Crossfire, back to HQ! Blaze, meet us there!" the hunter shouted. His mount, Crossfire, howled before settling into a black streak headed west.

Severus smiled. As Blaze followed Crossfire, he quickly grabbed his weapons from the ground, and also managed to rip off some of Akalia and Kalisthadner's scales for use in weaponry.

Akalia screeched as her armor was torn from her flesh. She looked at Kalisthander. "At least they aren't fully developed, right?" she asked.

Alphonse smiled at Severus as Crossfire went to run beside Blaze. "Sorry I took so long to get there. I couldn't find a suitable place to call the dogs." he apologized.

"I'm glad you came when you did. A minute too late and I'd be that dragon's launch.", Severus said.

"I still should've gotten there sooner." he said, then extricated a long stick from his back. He tied a string with a bone on one end to the stick. Alphonse smiled, tilted his head in a goodbye, and dangled the treat in front of the dog, who promptly ran faster.

"Hey, you came at exactly the right time.", Severus said, spurring his ride to go faster. "Otherwise, I couldn't have gotten these scales."

"Well, the scales are a definite bonus." he replied.

"Indeed. With scales from the offspring of a time dragon and a poison dragon, we'll be able to make some good weapons."

"True. I've heard that depending on how much powdered scale you put into something, the stronger it'll be. Wow! If we got the most potent poison ever and mixed it with some scale, that would be-!!!"

"A poison strong enough to bring down a Great Wyrm.'

Alphonse slapped himself, toning down his smile with the pain. His grin had grown to a size of which it hurt his eyepatch. "That would be an awesome sight." he replied. Despite what he had just done, the grin was returning.

"I know. But first, we need to make some time armour with the female dragon's scales."

"Right." he said. Then he glanced up. "Ah! These two are much faster than Thess and Hari."

"Or perhaps... No, it's still in testing. It'd never work..."

"What would never work?" Alphonse asked, ruffling one of Crossfire's four ears.

'Back at base, we're working on a device that will reverse-engineer dragon scales, and gives us our own dragon pets who are loyal to us."

"Our own little dragons? Oh, they'd be so cute!" he said, wrapping his arms around the dog's neck.

"And they'd be like little clones of the dragons that the scales came from. Rxcept, they'll be stronger and more obedient than any regular dragon."
