WhiteBlood- Book 2 ( HalfBlood Series- FW FF)

21-

We were just about to all go to our dragons when I see Varrish just landing with his dragon a little distance away. Immediately all the Cadets and dragons seem on edge seeing what happened at Parapet.

" Major Varrish, what an honor." Kamori greets.

His eyes were on me, though he plasters on a  cheesy half smile. " Kamori, I just thought I'd check around. See how all our Cadets are doing."

Kamori nods, " Yea, we were just given a demonstration by Mr. Aetos here about the run landing maneuver."

Varrish nods looking at Dain, " I see. Well carry on, I'm just a spectator."

Everyone quickly goes to their dragons, all glancing back at the twitchy Orange cocking his head to look with his one good eye.... If I just send one spark.. He'd be blind. He wouldn't last long neither would-

" He's quite compelling to look at." Varrish's voice seeps out making my eyes snap to him and his close proximity.

" I think he shows the perfect stereotypical Orange." I answer looking at him deadpan.

I can see he didn't take that well as his smile twitches just a bit. " I prefer oranges... For their unpredictability."

" I definitely think we all saw that when he decided to burn all those cadets."

I see Solas cock his head at me then the growl I know to be my white coming to the rescue. Varrish looks up looking void " What about you Ms. Sorrengail? What is it that you like about a white dragon?"

" He's the superior specie." I answer. " Burning human and dragon alike, just like that."

This makes the man chuckle, " And that is why I'm here.  I've been told your on watch for your..special ability. Since last year yet. Your reputation proceeds you, the anger, the aggression, the uncertainty... And to be so proud of it Ms. Sorrengail... To  be so unashamed is.. interesting. You certainly like to let people know your a threat. That your a born and raised killer."

I feel the heat and sparks stir within me as I set my gaze solely on him. " I only kill when I'm threatened."

He sighs, " Yes... I heard about your little show with that first year.. A shame really.."

" I was just proving a point."

" And what was that point?" Varrish pushes.

I take a step forward. " Don't bite off more then you can chew."

Varrish simply smiles a bit more, " What else do you like about your dragons. I suppose the appearance is one of them."

" Both of us have mutated genes I suppose."

" Interesting how that came to be. And that your both bonded. I've heard you two are practically the same. Same looks, seem to have the same temper, same fire.." He grins.
