Azure's P.O.V.
After that little incident, Jake and I decided that it was not safe for us to be in the woods. So we deicided to go to the nearest town and rest there atleast for the night.
The nearest town to us was known for having exotic dances and a lot of different cultural setting through out the city. I personally enjoy bellydancing. So I decided to take Jake over to the west side of the town where they were currently having a show on bellydancing where they also sold skirts. I was fangirling pn the inside! There were so many things, bracelets with coins, bracelets that were connected to rings, skirts that made a ching ching noise, it was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
I stoped my tracks as I saw a flowy long black skirt with about eight veils attacked to it, it also had a inner skirt that was sort of see through, the edges were covered in silver decorations. Beside it layed another beauty with coins. It was to put it ontop the other one and around your waist. There were also shoes with the same coins surrounding them. It came with a black bra with also silver decorations on the bottom. Not only that. But it was perfect! Did I mention the skirt with the coins had a DRAGON with different shades of blue and purple decorating the upper part that it is to attach on your waist!
It's like it was made for me.
"Excuse me sir, how much for the whole set?" I asked the man selling this stuff. He eyed me up and down in a non-judging matter. He then smiled kindly at me and said, "My my, you see, this isn't really up for sale, but I do see some weird connection between you and this..." What is he talking about? I only want the skirt.
Seller's P.O.V
Could she be the 'Azure Dragon' everyone has been talking about? I like her. Maybe she's the new dancer of the skies.
"You see, kiddo, this skirt was once worn by the high almighty dragon. Pridogy of the 'Azure clan'. Judging by your neckless you should be the one she was talking about." I said, trying not to sound like a weird old geezer.
Once I mentioned the Azure clan she became tense. As if a huge secret had been told.
"Does this thing let everyone know from the clan I decent?" She asked with obvious worry in her voice as she pointed to her dragon neckless.
I laughed at her sudden concern while she gave me the are-you-for-real look.
"Oh kiddo, only I am to know of this. I'm the last one to. Dont fear. I doubt there is anyone left to recognize the value of that neckless." I said the first sentenced between laughs, but finished with a serious look.She sighed in relief. "About the skirt thing. Im sorry for the inconvenience. I will take my leave." She said walking away.
"Wait. You havent let me finished yet." She turned around with a curiosity glance hidden between in eyes.
"As I sas saying, only the new pridody can wear this once more, to prove she is the new pridogy she must dance with it and if it syncs up with the music. She will recieve that special something."
"And what is it that special something?"
"That.. I cannot answer unless you recieve it. Are you up for it?"
Azure's P.O.V.
"Are you up for it?" The old man asked. Uncertany was filled in his voice, the air tensing up each second I didnt reply.
Hmm.. I am curious to know what she will recieve. And I am interested in the skirt. Why not?
"Sure. Why not." I told him. He seemed to relax and the tension levels of the room, droped significantly.
"Great! Tonight here will be a bellydance show in about two hours, go to the room in the back and change, I will worry about your make up" the old man said pointing to a room, as he handed me the costume. He smiled kindly at me gesturing me to go on. Why is everyone here so happy? Carefree in the world? I envy them..
