The King of Fire

As the day went on, Lucy, Ryuu, and Dray were relaxing near the creak. Ryuu was busy trying to get rid of the mud that clung to his hair while Lucy and Dray were laying down in the sun watching the clouds change forms.

When Ryuu was finally done getting rid of the mud he walked over and joined the two blonds, planting himself on the other side of them laying his head down in between the two. They laid there in silence for a few minutes until Ryuu sighed out" So you remember your Guild?" The older blonde growled in frustration rolling her eyes as she answered" Not really, I only see flashes when something is brought up and when I try to grasp on to them they slip out of my grasps and disappear it's getting really annoying!"

Dray glanced towards Lucy as she said" Don't worry you'll get them back I'm sure of it!' She put a comforting hand on the Celestial Mages hand giving it a little squeeze trying to help as much as she can.

 With a smile, Ryuu turned over on his stomach putting his head in the palm of his hand holding it up as he grinned" She has a point there Princess,  we need to just take things a step at a time. In the meantime lets talk about something else, like oh, I don't know, like how your no freaking out about being related to an evil dragon for starters!" his voice seemed casual but if you saw the look in his eyes one could see the worry that was towards the older blonde who was acting too calm for anyone's good.

Lucy sighed as she turned over on her stomach folding her arms in front of her in the process, facing towards Ryuu as she stated" I really don't know... it probably hasn't really hit me yet I guess.." Dray sat up twisting her self around until she faced the other two as she asked" Do you guys think we should trust them? They could be lying to us...."

Ryuu laughed reaching his arm out that he wasn't using, and ruffle Dray's hair as he chuckled out" don't worry about it, I think they're telling us the truth their stories are way too crazy for it to be fake." Lucy smiled as she watched Dray pout as Ryuu ruffled her hair making it go everywhere,  who had a huge grin on his face.

When Ryuu retracted his hand he looked past Lucy and an amused smile appeared on his face as he said" Well the Dragons are here, Oh, and it seems like they are holding hands! How intriguing"

An evil smirk soon appeared on his face as he eyed the two dragons who were talking to each other swing their entwined hands back and forth as they took each step along the grassy field.

Dray turned her head around smiling at them as she yelled" It's about time you guy's got here! Aren't we supposed to be on the move?"

Metalicana gave a small growl as a smirk spread across his face. Letting go of Grandine's hand Metalicana walked past the two teens and grabbed a hold of the small blonde who shrieked in enjoyment as she was thrown into the air. When Dray started to fall she was caught by two muscular arms that had metal studs on them. The little girl looked up to see that Metalicana was the one who caught her and was smirking down at her.

Dray let out another laugh as she was placed on his shoulders where she had previously sat when they started their journey three days ago. 

Grandine smiled at the action as she answered the question" We were just having a discussion about us helping Lucy get some more training done that's all. We'll discuss this more as we move so let's get going!"

With that said the pink haired woman made her way towards the Iron Dragon and was soon followed by the two teens who were glancing at each other wondering what the two dragons were planning.

The group made their way through the forest walking on an old dirt path that looked like it hadn't been used in years.It was almost un-walkable from all the foliage that was growing across the path. Metalicana had transformed his arm into a sword, that curved at the end and started to hack away at the branches making a clear enough path for everyone to walk on.
