He looked like he was struggling.

I didn't think, I threw myself at drakor forcing him to the ground. I blocked his fall with a darkness Cloud, "what the heck was that!" He said quite angrily, "I had to, you were going to be killed by the Lightning" I said, he grinned "I was fine", "yeah whatever, I'm going to make you walk the rest of the way", "PFFFTTT" he sounded annoyed. "How about we spar over it?" He asked, "if you win I will walk, if I win we are flying" he said with a little pride in his voice. "Well if you really insist on going" I rolled my eyes knowing how very immature this is and that we should not be doing it. "Well sure, it's a bit of fun to distract us" I said, "that's what I like to hear" he smiled. "Rules first" he began, "rule one no using power that you know will hurt the other, but darkness and poison are fine, because we are both dark it won't hurt us. And claws/horns are fine.

prepare to lose" he said in a cheeky tone, "your funeral" I sassed back. Drakor got ready in a fighting pose, and so did I, he blew a darkness beam at me, I thought I would be a little creative with this move and blow my own darkness beam into it deflecting it and making it hit him. "Hahahaha, good one" he said laughing, I swung my tail and shot needles at him, "how's that" I said with an ego. I turned around and there he was, right behind me, he swished his tail and hit me to the ground. It was impactful because he has a large scull on the end of his tail, that thing is as hard as a rock. I got up and flew to the air, he tried to blow a tornado at me but failed because I moved from the spot, to quick for his eye to see. I bit his leg and sent poison through his body, but his body rejected it because he has the same poison in his system. He blew a darkness beam at me, "again" I sighed, but this time I let my body absorb it. Taking the power in, I kicked my legs sending him to the ground. He got back up.

"you win" he said sounding disappointed in himself. "We will walk" he sounded annoyed, we began to walk
Time skip to when they get to warfang
When we got to warfang we didn't waste any time. Drakor and I walked to the blacksmith, many others were giving us dirty, looks, why I don't know. As we arrived we were greeted by a dragon with a helmet who spoke
With a deep voice. "Why hello drakor, is this your new girlfriend" he said, I did not like that at all, "girlfriend!?!?" I exclaimed. "She's a pretty one" he continued, I rolled my eyes, annoyed. "Hello axel, we would like helmets please" said drakor. "You and your girlfriend?" Axel asked,

"Yes please" drakor said, "okay come in and choose your design and size" axel said, "remind me why we need them again" I complained. "Oh I almost forgot we need one for June too" drakor added, "okay now this is my female range" he pointed to the helmets. I chose the one with a curl and a swirly design on the top, "this one if you insist on wearing them" I whined. I was still looking at the wall of helmets when one of them caught my eye, it had a swirl the exact shape of mothers face swirl, it also had a strange symbol that I know I had seen before, I just couldn't remember where. "Sir where did you get that" I said Pointing to the helmet, "well.... I made it" he said sounding like he made it up, "no you didn't" I growled, "okay.. If you really want to know I found it in a cave, there looked like there had been a blood bath there." He said, "why did you find that place?" I asked. "It was a normal day in the woods, I heard a tree break, like most dragons would I went closer to the sound, when I got there I saw a dragoness covered in blood. She looked like she was dying so I went to help her and that's when it emerged from the bushes," "when what emerged from the bushes?" I asked. "It looked like a dragon only it was a shadow, it was a long shadow with wings and a head. It went to attack her so like most would I tried to protect her... And that's when I got this" he took his helmet off revealing a large burn and scar on his face, "i was powerless against it, every time it striked at her all I could do was watch. She looked like she was getting weaker and weaker, he flew away realising that he could no longer hurt her.

She spoke to me, softly I remember her exact words were there is a helmet in there, it's mine. Please... Take it... I'm not going to last much longer, show it as a sign of your bravery, and maybe one day my daughter will come to you and find it. Now go, he might come back, please... Save yourself. She struggled to speak but she did, and ever since that day I have not let anyone buy that until I found her daughter, I made a promise. That is for her daughter and her daughter only."
