Wake me up inside, wake me up inside, call my name and save me from the dark, bid my blood to run, before I come undone, save me from the nothing I've become.

 Me? Lost? No way....
« Thread Started on Jul 30, 2007, 11:38pm »

"Damn it, I lost her again."
Zar would never admit to the fact that it was he who got lost, rather than vice versa. He had managed to fall behind the others because as vain as he was, had to step carefully in specific areas that would result in him coming out of this wretched place the cleanest he could be. He couldn't use his wings in this area of the swamps, due to the tightly packed trees, and this bothered him--a lot.
"I'm doomed." he muttered to himself, "My wings are my only defense here... I'll probably be killed the second a gator or a snake spots me!" he grumbled. His green eyes rolled to gaze up at the tangled branches of the trees, and he could not see a piece of the sky through the twisted mass. The air was moist, and the whole place just had a gloomy, depressing feeling to it.
'Why?' wondered the small black feline, 'Did we even freaking come to a place like this anyways?' Kirishra had not explained, so he assumed that she had no reason at all. He sighed, though suddenly jerked back as he accidentally pressed a paw into a glob of sticky mud. Lip curling back in disgust, he yanked himself out of it, moving back and sitting down on a thick tree root.
In this area of the Serpent Swamps, it was mostly just mud, and a bit of shallow water. He intended to stay away from the main source of water, fearing the alligators would snap him up before he would even see them coming. There were still many other dangers, of course, but just thinking of those massive jaws lunging towards him... He shuddered, backing closer to the tree and inhaling deeply.
'OK... OK.... I need to stay calm... If I can find Kiri and Lance, I'll be safe, for sure. The human and gryphon, unlike him, could actually stand a chance against something that showed up to attack. 'Urg... I'm hiding in the deepest pocket of that girl's jacket once I find her again! Why was I so stubborn; suggesting that I was perfectly capable of walking, as well?
'Suit yourself.' Kiri had said with a shrug when she had offered to carry him. The little cat spat at her, apparently, easily offended.
"Ugg..." he moaned once again, head almost drooping before it snapped upright again. He opened his eyelids as wide as they could go, trying to blink as little as possible.
'So much for staying calm--screw that tactic, I guess! My senses will be on high alert until we get out of this place, reach the nearest village, and I am curled up on a bed in a cozy inn.' he decided. 'Kiri and Lance may crave it, but some of this adventure stuff just really isn't for me!'

Argo was bored. Utterly and unbelievably bored. He flew above a swamp, gazing down into it. It was like a large patch of green from above, and rather normal looking. So Argo decided to explore it. He swooped down, quickly realizing that even with his amazingly small form, his wings wouldn't fit within the boundaries that the swamp had set up for him.

He felt his claws sink into the mud and gave an 'uggh,' of disgust, flicking his ebony claws and hurling some of the sloppy brown mud with it. The feathers on his tail collapsed together, to hopefully keep them for the most part sheltered from the mud. "Apparently I chose the wrong place to land..." He muttered to himself, dragging his claws through the mud. His tail, however, was elevated above it. Around him were boggy trees rising out of the slop, and some occasional dry spots beside the trees. There were also a few sinkholes, that Argo carefully avoided. He only saw two in total, but even so.

It wasn't long before he sensed something that was very vaguely different from the scenery. He thought for sure he heard a voice, as faint as it was. He padded silently toward it, climing a tree and watching. When he thought the beast was safe to approach, he fell down and hung by his tail, claws still digging into the bark for more support. "Lost, huh?" He said with a toothy grin, that slipped away almost instantaneously. "Aren't we all..."

Upon hearing the voice of the dragon, Zar leaped a foot in the air, whirling around. The terrified feline suddenly increased to twice his size as his black fur rose up, bristling. Arching his back, his eyes grew wide, though he didn't dare hiss in fear that he would offend the predator. Claws unsheathed from his paws, digging into the root, he eyed the beast suspiciously.
'He seems to be as unfamiliar of this swamp as I am,' He narrowed his lids until his eyes were slits. 'And I bet anything that he's just as hungry. Either way,' he gulped, 'I will definitely be killed if he decides I'm his lunch, but I will go down fighting.' Zar gritted his teeth and clenched his jaw, every muscle in his body tense.
Instinct screamed at him to bolt, but he was just too cowardly to listen. Absurd thoughts began to go into his mind, and he went into denial, convincing himself that the dragon had spotted and spoken to someone other than him. 'Maybe if I stay very still..... I won't be noticed.' this thought only made him relax for about one second total. 'Who'm I kidding? If I run, he'll probably catch me anyways, and that's without considering the sink holes to avoid, and the mud that'll slow me down.
'Dangit, I need a miracle. Oh, please God, let this dragon.... not feel like eating me... or something! Anythiinngg! Make Kiri appear at the last second to leap in and save me! Or how about right NOW?' Nothing happened. 'NOW! OK..............NOW! C'mon! Have mercy!'

Argo watched his lost friend here quake in fear, his fur sticking up, tail bottlebrushed, and muscles tense. Too bad I don't get a reaction like this from other dragons. He thought to himself. Eventually he decided not to give the cat a heart attack and slithered down the tree, leaning against it. "No, I won't eat you." He said, almost in a bored fasion, glancing at his claws and examining them as though making sure they were sharp. "Cat meat is rather... disgusting." He spat on the ground to indicate this, watching as his saliva mingled with the mud. Ick. What I wouldn't give for some nice ripe berries...

It was such a girly and non dragon thought that he wouldn't have expressed it to anyone. He just liked the taste of berries. They were sweet, savory, and the taste lasted only long enough for you to enjoy it. He liked meat too, but preferred it to be roasted over a fire beforehand. Which was why being a dragon came in handy. His tail continued to hover a few inches above the ground, his black green scales glittering in the faint sunlight that filtered through the limbs. Of course, this sunlight was so few that he practically blended in with his surroundings, but came through enough that he was visible; especially to a cat, stalker of the night. Maybe coming here wasn't a wonderful idea after all. Looks like I can't just fly back up and out of here.

'I don't trust this reptile! He's probably as devious and tricky as his snake cousins!' As the dragon spoke, Zar flinched and hissed, opening his mouth wide and baring his teeth.
"Get away from me, dragon!" he warned, "I do not trust your kind. Do not make me angry, or I might unleash my other form."
'Other form!? What the fu--Grr... You probably just made yourself not only a dork, but eligible to be that guy's enemy! Man.... Kiri REALLY needs to get her ass over here and save me!' His eyes were glued on the dragon's sharp talons, and in his mind he could just picture blood and black fur flying through the air, and could hear his own cries of agony. 'Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn..... F-ing shit! Why me? WHY ME?' His eyes rolled up, a terrified look on his face as he looked towards the blocked out sky, as if awaiting doom.

Argo watched, fairly amused. "Other form?" He scoffed, rolling his eyes. To bad Argo was a bit blunt. "Prove it." He challenged, sounding harsh though in reality just curious. If he did indeed have another form, then Argo figured he might be able to fight back. Of course, this was just Argo being a bit overconfident once more. He was always overconfident when he had the fortune of being larger than something; it was kind of tough being one of the smallest of your species.

But logically, this... cat probably would be more confident if he had another form that was big and tough enough to take me down, rather than shaking in his fur. But hey, maybe this is a trick. What do I know... Argo thought to himself, eyes glazed over in slight boredom. No, he wouldn't eat Zar; he had tried cat meat once before, and found it far to stringy. Plus he wasn't hungry enough to bother with killing the cat and eating him, when there were so many better foods in the world. Like berries... He thought in an almost nostalgic state, trying to remember the last time he had the succulent taste of blackberries or raspberries between his jaws.
