Hachi's POV:

I felt Fatty shift against me, giving a small huff as he rolled onto his back in my lap while I looked at my spell book. He eyed it over then puffed smoke at me like wanted attention bad. I frowned and looked down at him before sitting my spell book aside. "What boy?" I asked him and rubbed his head. "You want to go outside and play with me there? We could go down the trail again- the one Oz made that's safe for us to walk down together." He perked up then started to purr loudly before he wrapped his long body around my torso, putting his head on my shoulder as his claws dug into my shirt but not my skin. I nodded in agreement with him and eyed over the spell book before eyeing him over. "Here, put this away and I'll get my shoes on," I told him and got off the couch in my bedroom and walked over to my closet, taking it slow so he had time to do as I asked. He leapt to the book then scooped it up into his jaws then dove under my bed with it, cackling. I laughed and looked under the bed quickly to look at the hole that went into my mattress that I made for stashing my books... but I think he's using it more for his jewel stash while I'm not looking... He glanced at the hole in thought then ran towards the far wall and dropped my book with a pleased look before he went back to the hole then went up into it, coming out with a gold chain around his neck then came towards me with an excited look.

"Hey! That's suppose to be for my books, not your jewels!" I told him and straightened up. I placed my hands on my hips quickly. "I can't believe you're stashing treasure under where we sleep. Hoarder!" I shouted at him before going into my closet. I eyed over the shoes a little in distaste before shaking my head. No- I don't want to wear any of those... They always hurt my feet. I'd much rather feel the earth under my feet. I walked back out quickly and scooped him up. "Let's get going. That trail takes a few hours to walk." He purred loudly then spat out a few gems onto the ground as I carried him towards the door.

"I hope you don't have more in there," I told him and shook my head. "You're going to rot your teeth out and then I'll have to fix them." He looked at me innocently then slowly spat out a diamond. "Fatty," I hissed out in a warning tone. I shook my head and smirked a little. "We should do some practicing today together. I just learned a few spells that could be fun to cast together on a plant or two." He purred loudly then nuzzled his head under my chin before he started to shake in my hands and made a gagging noise, spitting out a silver chain quickly. "Fatty!" I hissed out. "WHAT'RE YOU DOING EATING THOSE THINGS!? I'LL TAKE YOU BACK TO THE DRAGON REALM AND MAKE THEM TEACH YOU DRAGONS DON'T EAT-"

"Eat what?" I heard Oz ask in slight amusement as he appeared by me. "Where are you two going? I didn't know you was awake.... Want something to eat?"

"N-no, I'm going to walk the trail with Fatty. He's going on a diet- starting today. He's hacking up treasure."

"Oh~ Be safe then," he told me and rubbed my cheek before pulling me into a hug. "I'll make you something anyways that'll be waiting for you when you come home." Fatty hissed a little in my arms then got onto my shoulders quickly, growling at Oz before he laid his head on top of mine quickly. I heard him growl lowly again before he started to nuzzle against my hair. "Don't growl at me," Oz warned him. "I can get rid of you if I want to," he hissed out. "Replace you so quickly too. One that looks just like you. Hachi won't even know the difference."

"Don't talk to him like that," I said quickly and yanked away. "Come on Fatty, let's go before he does take you from me." I continued walking away from him quickly. "You know better than to growl at him," I whispered to Fatty. "He's our master." He whined a little then moved his head up under my chin, curling up on my shoulders quickly like he didn't want to be taken. He nuzzled against my neck before he slowly started to purr. I hummed a little and walked out into the forest near Oz's cave home. I eyed over the hidden trail before getting on it and started to walk down it as soon as I slipped through the entrance. I felt Fatty start to move on my shoulders, shifting to look around protectively as he made small noises at the trees around us then stopped suddenly, getting quiet. I heard a small nicker a few feet away in the brush off the path, making Fatty shrink against me quickly. I continued down the trail and patted his head to calm him. "That wasn't a predator, silly." He whined and looked at me then looked back at the brush nervously as I heard hoofbeats amongst the leaves. I rubbed his head then and got under his neck. His eyes shut quickly as he went limp and purred loudly, melting against me as he tilted his head to let me get at it. I heard another soft nicker before I was suddenly hit with a very different magical presence than Fatty's.... One that just... felt more innocent... more... majestic. I widened my eyes and slowly shoved Fatty off my shoulder as I looked around quickly in awe. Fatty squeaked as he hit the ground then looked up at me with wide eyes, calling up at me quickly as he raced for my feet worriedly. I started towards the direction I felt the presence coming from before he could get me. He made a chirping noise at me and whined, chasing my heels as he got more noisy with every step I took. I heard a startled nicker in the direction of the presence before the hoofbeats started to move quicker- away from me. I frowned and eyed the noise over. Oh- Wait... Did I just go off the trail?! I panicked and looked around to see I had stepped away from the trail. Where'd it go- no.... I came from this direction so it's there... Not too far away. The hoofbeats slowed down a few feet away from me before I heard another soft nicker then a snort before a whinny. Horse! I gave a huge smile and started back in the direction of the noise. I'll keep straight... If he or she curves then I'll have to stop following. I caught a glimpse of snow colored white amongst the greenery after a few steps, the sight making me almost pause in awe at the brilliance of the color. I gasped a little and slowly took a few more steps to sneak a glance in. I saw the horse toss it's white mane before it lifted it's head up, chewing on a leaf as it cast a glance around then locked eyes with me, staring straight into my soul. It froze then snorted, lowering it's head as it pawed at the earth beneath it's feet. That's when the light caught it- the horn on it's head, making it shimmer. I gasped and felt my knees buckle as they hit the ground. I FOUND A UNICORN! I FOUND A UNICORN! "F-Fatty, it's a unicorn," I whispered. He whined as he dove into my lap quickly, looking up at me then bit at my shirt, trying to tug me in the opposite direction of the unicorn as it slowly lowered it's head to get another leaf off a low tree. I eyed it over before tossing Fatty off to the side and eyed the unicorn over in awe. This is my lucky day! I found a unicorn. Fatty yelped as he hit the ground then hissed at me loudly before he puffed smoke at me then started to run off from me. I frowned and looked at Fatty quickly. "Where are you going?" I asked him. He paused and stopped, giving me a jealous look as he growled. "Come here," I giggled out and started for him. "Jealous." He made a small noise and lowered his head as he watched me then got excited, running for my arms. I giggled and placed him on my shoulder.
