On the field – Dragon Realm

Lucy's P.O.V

"Metallicana!" I yelled as I ran as fast as I could. "Loke help me!" I shrieked at my Lion Spirit, who was laughing his ass off. "So much for loyal Spirit." I wheezed out between pants. Metallicana let out a deep chuckle behind me.

At the moment, Metallicana was hunting me down like the crazed Dragon he was, literally. I was running for my life here, and he just kept pushing and pushing. Well, it wasn't new in any way, since Metallicana showed up when I was running, it'd been like this: Me running for my life and Metallicana running after me, having the time of his life. Likewise with Loke, who had refused to help me, because apparently it was a good way to train running and endurance. I disagree with him, it's horrid.

"Come on Squirt!" Metallicana yelled after me in his Human form, he didn't want it to be impossible for me. Hmph, show off. "You can run faster!" He laughed maniacally. It sounded like he was just behind me now.

I pushed myself and ran a little faster. My lungs began hurting with every breath and my legs couldn't keep this up much longer. But, I had to; I didn't want to be eaten alive. The grass and flowers flew past me, it was impossible to tell them apart. I made the decision to run into the forest in hopes of escaping the Iron Dragon. I quickened my pace a little, so I would have a chance to hide from him.

The forest soon enough came in view, and I quickly ran into it, resisting looking back at my pursuer. It would only slow me down and get me caught in the end. I swiftly weaved through the many trees, and when the footsteps behind me faded out, I took a sharp turn to the left and quickly jumped up in a tress, landing on one of the branches and continued crawling upwards.

I'd gotten really strong physically – if you asked me anyway – and now I could do things I thought impossible before. It wasn't surprising though, not after finding out I was a Dragon; that took the cake.

I tried controlling my ragged breathing when I found a branch I liked. I breathed heavily, but quieted it down when I heard a 'Gihi' from under me. Had he found me already?

"Oi, Squirt! I thought we agreed with staying on that field. It was like a secret rule." Metallicana called out to me. I dared look down and – just my luck – he was standing right underneath me. "I know you're here, Squirt! You may as well just show yourself." He told me. I stayed silent, hoping all he was trying to do was taunt me to make some noise giving away my whereabouts. I wouldn't do that. Metallicana grunted. "A game of hide n' seek, huh? Well, two can play that game." He said before disappearing out of sight.

I breathed out heavily, he thought I wasn't there. I was saved.

Or that was what I thought until I felt something poke my shoulder. I slowly turned around and faced Metallicana, who wore a wide grin. "You thought you could hide from me, did you?" He asked. He pointed to his own nose. "I think you forgot something. Gihi."

I sighed, of course. He would be able to smell me, I forgot completely. Great. I nodded defeated. "Alright, alright, you win." I told him with a small smile. I had wanted to win this time.

Metallicana winked at me and before I could do anything to stop him, he'd thrown me over his shoulder, like when I met the Trimen in Earthland. "METALLICANA! PUT ME DOWN!" I screeched. I hated when he did this. Did he get some kind of kick out of it or something?
