Raya and the last dragon/ Male Raya×Reader

9-Spine

Virana speaks to fang officers, over a map of Kumandra."Chief Virana, we're running out of room. We need to expand to the mainland."

"And how do you propose we handle
the druun, General Atitāya? Without
proper protection, it would be a
death sentence for our people."
Namaar enters the palace.

"I might have a solution for that,
mother." Namaar bows to his mother as she smiles and becomes genuinely happy "My little morning mist, it's good to see you home."

"I located Rayan and _____. They're out stealing gem pieces." Virana looks at her gem. "What?"

"I'd like to take the royal army and
intercept them in Spine."

"Well, if they're going into Spine, I doubt there will be much left of them to intercept." Virana speaks as she looks to the map

"They are more capable than you
realize. We have to stop them"Virana hears the anger in her sons voice.
"Walk with me."

Virana leads Namaar to the balcony.
"Look around." She points to Fang.
"We made all this by making smart
decisions, not emotional ones. We
are safe. Our canal protects us from those monsters. I don't think it's wise to risk yourself when you don't have to."

"But you heard the General - we're
running out of space, we need to
expand. If we had all the gem
pieces, we could do that safely.
You're right. This isn't an emotional decision, it's the only decision we can make to secure Fang's future."

Virana slowly thinks it over, she smiles and looks at her son. "Namaar, you're truly growing into the leader I raised you to be. "
She turns to the General
"General Atitāya, ready the royal
army for my son's command."

"Thank you, Mother. I won't let you
down."

Boun's shrimp boat floats towards snow covered hills.Noi and the Ongis shove as much congee and condiments into their mouths as they can. Boun chases them off! "Hey! Stop eating!"

The Ongis knock hot sauce into Tuk-Tuk's plate. He eats and immediately knocks Rayan over to get to the side of the ship. Rayan turns to yell at the Ongis but you calm him down" I got this." You whisperd he nodded thankfully.

You slowy walk over to Boun, Noi, and the Ongis fighting with each other.
"Did you just throw a shrimp at me?
That's not even edible! Don't look
at me like that, you fuzzy garbage
can." Boun argues with them.

"Hey, guys. Do you want to play hide
and seek?" Noi and the Ongis nod yes.
"Alright, ready? One, two..."
They run away and hide. You open your eye to see Boun smile and whisper "Thanks."

You smile back and continue to count
"Two and a half... Three..."

Rayan walk to the endge of the boat and sits down whit sisu "Remind me to never have kids." He said.

"Being people is hard."
"Yep. "

He looks back to see you still playing with the baby and her Ongis
"Six...Seven..." Even tho he didn't like kids. He wouldn't mind a family with you. He could see you as a mother figure.

"You have small heads, no tails, you
lie to get what you want. Like the
Talon Chief back there."

"Yeah well, the world's broken, you
can't trust anyone. "

"Or maybe the world's broken BECAUSE you don't trust anyone." Sisu turns Rayans words. He laughed
"You sound just like my ba."

"Well, he sounds like a smart man."

"Yeah. He was. I really wanted to
believe him. I really wanted to
believe that we could be Kumandra
again."

"And we can."

"Literally thousands of people
turned to stone would argue
otherwise."

"That doesn't mean you shouldn't try."

Rayan rolls his eyes
"And I did. And you know what
happened? We got kicked in the back
by someone who gave us a "gift" -
Look around. We're a world of
orphans because people couldn't
stop fighting over a gem. Wanna
know why other dragons didn't come
back? Because people don't deserve
them."

"But you can change that." Sisu continues "I am done trying. Kumandra is a fairy tale. The only thing
important to me now is bringing my
ba back and protecting ____."
The ship slowly comes to a stop.
" we're in Spine!" You call out.

The Clouds part revealing the imposing structure of Spine. Suddenly - Splash - Sisu pops out of the ship, storms up the beach-side. In her arms, she carries a large pot of Boun's soup.
"Sisu!!!" Rayan runs after her.

"Hey! My congee!" You quickly pull on your hand armour before you ran out of the ship. But you turn around to speak with Boun. "Don't go anywhere. I'll be right back." You then run off the ship.

Sisu carries a pot of food up the hill...
"Sisu! Come back! Please. What are
you doing?"

"I'm going to show you that you're
wrong!" Sisu yells at him."How? By getting squashed by a bunch of Spine rage-heads?"

"No. By proving to you that if you
want to get someone's trust, you
have to give a little trust first."Sisu walks right up to the Spine village doors and starts knocking.
"Sisu, don't!"

But as you take a hold of her hand a burlap sack swoops from above and traps you, Rayan and Sisu. "In hindsight, maybe I was a little
hasty. But... who's hungry? No?
I'll leave you guys alone."

You're tied up, dangling from a wooly
mammoth tusk. As you open your eyes you see sisu and Rayan tied up next to you. " Rayan!" You wisper-yelled.
He wakes up "Ha!" And scares Sisu waking her up as well.

"Are you alright?" He asks. You nod and Sisu smiles as she looks around the room"Interesting choice of digs."

Suddenly the doors of the cabin open.
The silhouette of a large barbarian
stands there, axe in his hand.he slams his axe into the wall. "You must be dung of brain to think you could steal Spine's dragon gem."

"Gem? Who said anything about gems?
We have no interest in gems."
Tong drops Rayan's satchel full of gems in it."Okay, yeah. I can see how that
makes me look like a liar."

"Actually, I think it was the lying
that made you look like a liar."
Tong starts maniacally laughing.
"I'm not sure what's funny."

"Your fear is like a delectable
nectar feeding the tum tum of my
soul. It's good. It tastes like... mango."
You stare at the guy confused.

"Ooo, I love mango."He gets into Sisu's face."OF COURSE YOU LOVE MANGO! Only a tongue-less cretin wouldn't."

"Oh toi." You roll your eyes.
"It's been such a long time since
I've last peered into the eyes of a
trembling enemy...Where has the time gone? It's been so long..."

"You seem lonely." You point out.
"NO! I'm not lonely. I'm a Spine
warrior, I was born and bred to do
only one thing - to invoke fear and
to crush the skulls of my enemies."

"That's actually two things." Sisu speaks as her and Rayan spin around.
"RWAR!!!" He screams I to sisu's face again "Ah!"

"Hehe. Look at your face." He laughed.
"Hey. What do you plan on doing with
us?" Rayan asks rolling his eyes at the guys speech."Oh, it's going to be bad.
Horrifying. It'll take me two weeks
to clean up."

"You have no idea, do you?" You look at him with a smirk."Yes I do! I'm formulating this gruesome plan in my head of... It makes me sick just thinking about it. You just wait. Until then..."

He looks at you dangling.
"why don't you just hang around?
Good one, huh? Hehe"
