Cynder sighed as her tail drooped over the edge of the cliff, looking up to the abandoned district and seeing the massive whirlwind of reiatsu that had signaled Solranous' return to the world.
She heard pounding steps behind her, and looked back to see Chiggar. But what really caught her attention was the blue wyrmling sitting atop her head.
'Mortis?'
"Geez, what are you doing all the way out here, Cynder?" Chiggar asked.
"Trying to stay out of the way. You can't see it, but there is a major clash of energy going on down at the abandoned district. One af the energies is Solranous. He's returned."
Chiggar's eyes bulged out, "Ya don't say? How long has he been back?"
"Not, long, a few days at best. He's fighting someone, I don't know who." Cynder replied. She then turned to Mortis.
"Feeling ok, Mortis?"

Mortis sighed, shaking his head as he slid off of Chiggar.
"No, not really... to tell you the truth, I haven't felt 'ok' in a while. Almost died the day before yesterday, some fungus-things tried to make me kill Chiggar, and the fact I haven't slept in over a month seems to be getting to me." He replied in an exasperated tone.
He looked back up, weariness etched into his face.
"On the other hand, how're you?" He asked in an happier tone.

"Good, Hollow half hasn't been a major bother. She's actually scared of all that power down there, not that I blame her. I wouldn't want to get caught between those two super beasts as well."
The black wyrmling shuddered.
"I can feel the vibrations from their impacts all the way here..."

Mortis nodded, muttering,
"I'm honestly surprised Shive hasn't jumped head-first into that fight..."
He paused, then thought,
He... he's not scared, is he?
He shook his head, adding,
No... that's not like him. Still... why isn't he down there?
He sighed, glancing back at Chiggar.
"I can't do this..." he muttered to himself in a low tone.
He looked back at Cynder, went to open his mouth to say something, then clamped it back shut.

"Maybe he doesn't notice its going on, though how I have no idea, or may be he's going for something a lot more important to do." Cynder speculated, then grinned at Mortis.
"I know what you're trying to say, its easy to read your eyes like a book. I've actually known for quite a while."
Cynder walked over to the blue wyrmling, and gave a light peck of a kiss to his cheek.
"Hope that answers the question for ya."

Mortis could only stare at her for a few moments, eyes wide in surprise, and a blush making itself slowly known. He would occasionally begin to mouth a word, but stoppe dbefore any sound was made. After several minutes, he abruplty 'hmphed', smiling. He looked back up at Cynder, eyes watering as he muttered,
"It... it does, yes..."
He slumped onto his haunches, staring at the black dragoness before asking,
"But... me? Really? Why me...?"
He paused, then added in a slightly annoyed mutter,
"Despite the fact I'm the only other wyrmling around.... or actual dragon, for that matter..."

Cynder chuckled.
"We need support, and because we relate to each other, we can support each other more then any body else can support us. Barring that... Well... I don't see why there has to be a reason. It just is..." the black wyrmling stated, and Chiggar snorted.
"Oh god, please don't turn into mini-Sol. Even the the color and shape and age are completely off... Anyways, we've got enough speech spouters running around already." the beetle grumbled.
(OOC: *laughs* Mini-Sol... Sorry, Cynder, had to throw it out there.
Cynder: *evil glare*
Azure: *shudders*)

((Mini-Sol.... *lightbulb* O'Malley! I require your skills! *runs off screen, yelling*))
Mortis nodded, his smile still intact.
"Ah.... that's true... eh, I don't really care what the reason is, I'm just glad it's so." He replied to Cynder.
He glanced at Chiggar, then smirked, laughing,
"Not one for talking? Everyone's dialogging as of late!"
((O'Malley: *comes out, shaking head as he holds up a 2-foot tall replica of Solranous, alive and everything* WHY did I do this again?
Talon: For the sake of humor!))

((Solranous: ... *face palm*
Kisara: You know... that you looks cute all chibi-sized like that.
Solranous: I am a warrior that defends the planet, I am not. Suppose. To look. CUTE! *fumes*)
Cynder laughed along side Mortis.
"He's got a point Chiggar." Cynder commented.
Chiggar grumbled, tempted to blast them both to kingdom come.
Cynder could even hear the hollow bursting out laughing at that.

((O'Malley: *hands Kisara the Mini Sol* I have enough experiments to worry about... *eye twitch* and.... that thing... *jabs claw at Mini-Malley*))
Mortis laughed along, his spirits soaring. He'd never felt so good in a long time, it was almost hard to remember what happy was... And then his laugh was cut short when a claw encircled his neck. He uttered a strangled choke as he was lifted into the air, and four purple eyes blazed out of the darkness.
"Hey.... 'scuse me, but you seem to know my brother... tell me, where might he be at the moment?" Daedalus hissed, holding Mortis at eye-level.
He scowled, then dropped Mortis onto the ground, before slamming his foot down on the wyrmling's spine, eliciting a cry of pain as multiple spines snapped, and his spine was put under pressure.
"Maybe your dying screams will lure him here..." The demon hissed, a sick grin forming.
((Daedalus: Aww, you know you all missed me!))

((Kisara: *squeals as she takes Mini-Sol, and cuddles him*
Solranous: I don't feel like the warrior I should be... O'Malley, did you get a similar feeling when he came about? *jabs thumb at Mini-Malley as well))
Cynder growled, swiftly letting the transformation take place as Hollow Cynder emerged again, headbutting Daedalus off the blue wyrmling. Hollow Cynder snarled.
"Don't. Touch. Him." the Hollow hissed as she sent a Cero the demon's way, blasting him back. Chiggar added her own fire power with her cannon, unleashing 'shell' after 'shell' of energy at the demon.

((O'Malley: *rubs eye irritably* I never really felt like a warrior anyway, but seeing my visage turned into something... 'cute' did irritate me...))
The demon staggered out fo the smoke, holes blown through him by Chiggar's cannon-blasts. Yet he still retained his hellish grin as he stepped forward, hissing,
"That's some punch you two have... unfortuneately..."
He paused, cracking his neck as his arm-blade formed around his right arm, 'melting' out of said appendage and hardening into the weapon. His other arm raise,d aiming at Chiggar as he finished,
"It won't be enough..."
An explosion of red, purple, black and gray energy erupted against Chiggar with enough force to send splinters of her chitin flying, and Daedalus scowled. He shrugged, then rushed forward and stabbed Chiggar in the spot where his previous attack had hit, blood spurting out of the wound as he grinned sinisterly, lifting her up with the single arm before spinning around and tossing her at Cynder. Upon the Villakroma's impact, he released a torrent of hellfire from his maw at both combatants.
Meanwhile, Mortis was currently trying to rise, but his swayings were making it difficult, blood dribbling into his eye. Daedalus took notice, scowled, and punted the wyrmling through a tree, the snapping of bone accompanying that snapping of bark.
"Is this really all they have to offer? ... then again, I suppose the 'good' fighters are all downtown..." Daedalus muttered, unimpressed.

"RAGH!" With the roar, Hollow Cynder shoved Chiggar off of her body, standing up and charging at Daedalus, before curling up and spinning rapidly. Hollow reiatsu was channeled into her back as the Cero Saw formed, and the Hollow wyrm cleaved the demon in two with the attack.
Chiggar had gotten up enough to see this, and blinked in shock.
"I don't think he survived that..." the beetle mused as Hollow Cynder uncurled next to her, charging another Cero.
"He's a demon, of course he survived." she said simply as she blasted Daedalus with the second Cero.

Daedalus rose to both halve's feet, forcing both together so the regeneration could take place.
"damn regen's so slow..." He grumbled, pushing a bit of his brain back into place.
Daedalus smirked, then released his arm-tendril, of which slowly writhed and snaked about on its own. He smirked, then lashed it out at Cynder, impaling the Hollow's right shoulder with it as it began 'wriggling', an apparent 'lump' traveling down its length towards the end embedded in Cynder. Before whatever it was could make it, however, a massive bellow erupted from the trees, causing Daedalus to turn his head and hiss as a pair of bloodshot red eyes shone back at him. Not a millisecond later, the tendril was severed exactly at the point where the 'lump' was, sending blood and fluid spewing into the air as Shive wheeled around and slammed into Daedalus, winding him and sending both careening off of the cliffs.
"About goddamn time you showed up, brother!" Daedalus chimed, grinning.
The demon then scowled, noting there was no response, not even a growl. Shive then raised his head, said action causing Daedalus's eyes to widen when he saw the pupils were nigh nonexistant, his scales slick with fluid, and small spikes having erupted from various points on his body.
"Bloodra-"
Daedalus was cut off when Shive clamped his powerful jaws around the dmeon's throat, ripping out his once-brother's esaphogus in a spray of blood. Daedalus gurgled something before firing his breath weapon, of which was forced out of the hole where his throat once was, burning away at Shive's face. Both finally hit the sandy ground below in an eruption of sand, sending shockwaves up the cliffs and dislodging a bushel of loose boulders.

Hollow Cynder grunted, managing to look over the cliff down at where the two warriors had fallen, somewhat worried for Shive. That is, before she cast it away, chiding herself on think that Shive couldn't handle such a drop. He was freakin' Shive! Not much could put that dragonkin down for long.
Chiggar also looked down, shocked at the sudden change Shive had. She heard the scuttling of claws, and looked to see Hollow Cynder dashing off to search for Mortis.
'damn kid better not have died on us...' the Hollow thought as she found the wyrmling.
