Transformation (Thorn)

[elizabeth]

Elizabeth's body stopped shaking as Athena touched her. She glanced up, the panic still in her eyes. "Yes... Yes... I think so." She slowly stood up and squinted her eyes as she glanced up at the sky. The vision had certainly made her fearful. Looking over at Dai, she asked, "Have you... Ever seen fire come down from the sky?" It certainly would seem like she was completely crazy, asking a question like that. But she had to know if this had happened before. She had to be as prepared as possible.

Dai listened to what the dragon said to him. He didn't back up far but he still did. He watched the girl as she looked up at the dragon, still looking panicked. Then she asked if he had even seen fire from the sky. He began thinking. "No, but I am sure that only the most powerful of magic could conjure it. I don't think even I could do that. Maybe if..." He trailed into silence after that. 'Maybe it would be the world if the Guardians were all gone.' He thought . It gave him a frightened expression just thinking about it.

Athena stared very hard at Elizabeth. Her mind was whirling. " Perhaps.... Perhaps you should talk to Raphael.." Her head raised up and she looked around. " He would know." She looked at the sky. " Though it may be interesting finding him.." Her gaze turned back to Elizabeth, the feeling of fear bit at her stomach. "But what the wizard says is true. Whoever did it, or whoever is going to do it, has power beyond many of us. We need to make sure that Rapahel is warned." Her gaze was serious, to the point. Whatever Elizabeth had seen, seemed to be of great important.

Elizabeth thought what Athena said made sense. She could sense the worry surrounding them all from what she had said. Where to find Raphael, however, was the biggest question. Didn't he live in an entirely different universe? The layout of this world was extremely inconvenient. "Where to start..?" she said, thinking out loud. She had no idea where to go or what to do. The concept of going all the way to another universe was just far too crazy to even consider. "You're a Guardian. Where could I find him?" she asked, turning her gaze to Dai.

Dai nodded several times when the dragon said they needed to talk to Raphael. "Well. He could be at his home in this universe or he could be in his chambers in the other universe. And I think only Guardians can go through the gate." He explained. "You two could travel to his home here and I could go to his chambers to find him." He said. He pulled his map out and pointed out where to go for them. The little house in Firefly ruins."I can teleport so I'm good." He said with a grin.

Athena nodded to the wizard. all past hatred was forgotten, the seriousness of the situation. Her eye blinked with satisfaction of the plan.Looking toward Elizabeth a faint smile played on those scales lips. "Well, Looks like you are going to get that ride after all.." Then she grumbled slightly, "I'm putting up my meal for you know.. Just think you should make a note of that." She mockingly glared at Elizabeth. She was joking of course, she didn't mind doing something for her friend, though it was an honor to ride Athena. Her large form lowered itself close to the ground, to make it easier to climb onto her neck, where there weren't any spines. Looking back at Dai she said in a serious tone, " Off with you. We'll meet you at the Firefly ruins."

Elizabeth smirked and nodded. "I'm fully aware, and very grateful." She took a few steps toward Athena, using her thigh to clamber her way up onto the dragon's back. It was never entirely comfortable, but it was bearable. She shifted slightly, trying to get herself settled. She grasped the spike closest to her on Athena's back, leaning down slightly. "Don't be late," she warned Dai. With one final movement, she said, "Alright, let's go."

[athena]

Athena nodded and without waiting she
leaped into the air and beating her wings soon was carried into the depths of the blue sky. Her wings shuttered with delight as she felt the wind beneath her wings. With a burst of satisfaction she let out a stream of fire that was sent streaming beside her. Joy shone through the big heart of heaerts, and broke through the stoney casing of it. Though Elizabeth could have something that could be a bad prediction, Athena couldn't pass up the momentary peace and happiness. Yes, life was good.
