"A Trayven man. Another scout, I'd guess, someone like you but.. he was a complete terror.
And that thing.. it wasn't a beast." [i]Clea added, sighing.[/i]
"Twas.. a woman. White of garb and tall. She carried a younger woman, a screaming one.. no, she drug her. The screamer yelled.. your name, I think.
I'm sorry, but.."

"How do you feel like a dragon...? That sounds, amazing I think. That kind of power..." She shook her head then, obeying Niki was she scooped up Clea, grunting a bit from her tired body. Then, she retraced her steps back to the little camp, her mind still adrift. A dragon? How was that possible?
-
[i]Niki would stumble after her, hanging onto the trunks of the red trees as she attempted to explain.[/i] "There's just.. so much heat. Spells feel like.. nothing. I feel as though I could lift a house. Yet I'm so.. weak, physically. Gods, I'm.. oh, no. I'm stronger, but weaker.."
-
"Is it your magic...? How could you be stronger, but weaker..." She shook her head then. A dragon, could Niki do the same to her? She had to ask, it was nagging her. "Niki... Is there a chance you could do it to me? I know its the wrong time to ask, but its eating away at me. A dragon..." She shook her head, gesturing for Niki to hang onto her shoulder instead of going from tree to tree.
-
"...[i]I can try.[/i]" [i]Niki admitted, sighing as she sat down at the camp and studied Clea as she slept.[/i] "...this feels so.. peaceful. Superb." [i]She smiled, studying her hands before she rested her hands upon a pile of small logs, where a fire would be set. Small cinders broke through her fingers, as she released her hands, revealing a flame now sparking in the logs.[/i]
-
"I don't want to force you, but can you? That kind of power... I don't know. At least then you wouldn't be alone." She let out a sigh, laying Clea down next to the fire, then sitting next to it "This place though, its not right, even you know that."
-
"I know it's not right. I wish we could stay, even then. Us, together.. away from war and death." [i]Niki sighed.[/i] "I.. I can share this power. Through a rune. I think.."
-
"If only... You me, alone..." She let out a sigh. "If you think it would work, then you can try it. I trust you, know you wouldn't do anything that wouldn't kill me."
-
[i]Niki nodded, as she would cross her legs and hold her hands together, as the winds would slow and come to a steady stop in the background. She was.. calming herself.[/i] "Where would you like the rune to be?"
-
She gave it a bit, thinking. Then she pulled her shirt off and sports bra off, knowing the drill. Turning around, she put her back to Niki, the obvious meaning apparent; she wanted it on her back. As much as she hated carvings in her skin, she was fine with it this one time.
-
[i]Niki nodded, as she would place her hands upon Rose's back, her smooth hands rushing against her spine. Her palms began to quiver a little, with a warmth surging through Niki's hands and into Rose's back, while the former grunted a little in discomfort. Light issues from her fingertips, as the insignia of a spiked, curled dragon would formulate within Rose's skin.[/i] [i]Raw power would rush through Rose's being, a noise that sounded similar to a dragon's roar filling her ears. Her vision turned red for a few seconds before returning to normal, while Niki continued to quiver a little.[/i] "T-There."
-
Rose sat for a bit in silence, the feeling pervading her being, resonating within her. Is this what Niki felt? This unholy power boiling within her?
-
"...My biggest fear are those legends." [i]Niki cleared her throat, sighing.[/i] "Those that are.. influenced by this.. in turn become more of a dragon than they think they already were. As in, their bodies.. shift. Change. You should be fine.. [i]should[/i]. But.. tell me if I start growing horns, okay?" [i]Indeed, Niki hadn't gone through such drastic changes yet.. though upon the corners of her pale, pretty face, small, white scales had begun to show.[/i]
-
"You mean we'll both turn into one...?" She gave a sideways glance then, turning around to face Niki, then reaching out to touch the scales.
-
"Well, we-" [i]Niki blushed as she felt the soft scales touched, as she crossed her hands together.[/i] "...You'll still love me, even if I change. Right, Rose?" [i]In the background, Clea had then groaned, before stirring.[/i]
-
"Always, you know that. And if anything happens to me?" She gave a weak smile, placing her hand against Niki's cheek then. Rose had no idea what would happen, and she didn't want to find out.
-
"I'll still love you. Always." [i]Niki smiled back, while Clea opened a single eye. Her first action was to calmly snicker at the lovebirds, though she closed her eyes soon afterwards.[/i]
-
Rose grinned, leaning forward then to plant a kiss on Niki's lips, backing away then to replace her clothes. They needed to get out of the place, as much as she wanted to stay with Niki. Standing up, she shivered slightly, rubbing a hand across her back. "What exactly will the rune let me do?"
-
[i]Niki met the kiss with her own, as she giggled in response to it. Though, she soon resumed her more intellectual, yet kind, soft manner.[/i] "I think.. yes. While I retain this form.. you will become a dragon, yourself. A shift. A.. transformation."
-
"Wait, like permanent? I'll turn into one?" She glanced over then with a worried look, not knowing how to handle it. "What will happen to you...?"
-
Edited by Weeaboo Of War: 1/23/2018 2:33:01 AM"No, not permanent. As in, you can shift forms.. Me? I'll just.. stop growing, eventually." [i]The scales had begun to increase a little, as they coated Niki's neck lightly, while she felt her head as small ridges formed upon her forehead. Clea looked up, her eyebrow raising a little.[/i] [b]C[/b]: "Uh.. you always had a tail, or.."
-
Rose gave a sideways glance then, making Niki do a twirl. She spoke then, although now, her canines where more extended than normal, nearly all her teeth where actually, her canines being the most prominent. "Niki, your... Changing more than I thought. I there ant way you can halt some of it? Or at least share the burden, so you don't change too much." A tail, well Rose could handle a tail, but a full blown dragon was different.
-
"Shh.. I like it." [i]Indeed, as Niki twirled around, a tail extended from underneath her robing. It was.. fluffy, practically, while Niki giggled as it fluttered through the air. Clea looked at Rose astonishingly, then.[/i] "Rose, your teeth seem.. er, different." [i]She spoke up, surprised.[/i] "What've you two done?"
-
"Clea! Eh, its a long story, very long. Way too long. Niki I love the tail. Maybe a little too much." Rose blurted it out suddenly, grinning, flashing a giddy smile then, her canines even more pronounced, the same effect making itself apparent, scales ever so slowly appearing on her jaw line.
-
"Um.. both of you look like lizards.. weird, fluffy lizards." "Dragons, silly!" [i]Niki laughed, as she looked up at Rose then, touching her cheek as Rose had done beforehand.[/i] "I think.. you're changing a little as well. Teeth, right now.. and some scales.."
-
Rose grinned, fine with it. She seemed slightly taller one as well, an inch, maybe more. Raising a hand, she put it to Niki's, holding it. "At least you aren't alone then, we'll experience this together." She was a bit giddy actually, she had to admit it to herself, she liked the changed kind of, they made Niki look great.
