Mortis stood at the edge of one of the springs, staring into the water with interest. Normally, the wyrmling preferred cold temperatures, but the water looked inviting. Glancing from side to side first, he slipped into the water and surfaced on his back shortly after. He let out a small smirk, followed by a puff of snow that quickly evaporated in the warm temperature.
"Well, this is kinda nice." He stated.
Every so often, his tail would skim through the water as it swayed from side to side, acting as a rudder so Mortis wouldn't run into the edge of the spring. He started getting groggy from the constant heat, and sank into the spring a bit further. He yawned, recalling last night's events. The one who called himself Khimera didn't bother him much; he had already assimilated Mortis's genes into himself. As to why, the wyrmling didn't know...
Then what Draethik said came to mind, and Mortis's expression became sullen.
"A month... that's all I get? Hmph. I had started to like these people too..." He muttered.
He then sank below the water as his eyes closed. They opened when he reached the bottom, and he scowled, floating back to the surface, then sighed. He rolled over so he was laying on his stomach, and he shrugged, eyes closing again.

"Hello there again, Mortis" Myrr said as she rounded on the spring Mortis was in, laying down at the edge. The ice-based dragon looked to her, somewhat surprised.
"If he hasn't told you yet, Shive was the first one to find these springs, and the two of us usually come here when we want to unwind" She explained.
"So, how did it go? Meeting with the others, I mean?"

Mortis's eyes opened, and he sighed.
"It... went well, I suppose." He replied.
He was lightly chewing on his lip, making it bleed somewhat. He wanted to ask Myrr something, but before he did that...
"Has your father told you about Khimera yet?" He asked.

"Um... No... He was out when I went home, like he was recovering from something, Kisara was resting next to him on the couch, but from her worried expression, it wasn't what I first thought it was, and he had some dried blood on his scales, like he was fighting recently. Whatever it was, it really knocked him off his feet." Myrr explained, nervously biting at the nail on her thumb, a habit Solranous had sometimes tried to get her out of.
"Who... or what is Khimera?"

Mortis shook his head.
"I'm not quite sure... he showed up with all of these black monsters last night, and they attacked us. He... he grabbed Onyste, Cynder, your father, and I, saying something about 'absorbing our DNA', whatever that means..."
He shivered, not from cold, but from something else.
"Shortly before he left, he said said something about 'The Scourge', who I assume he and the monsters were. His hand... he made it look just like Solranous's..." He added.

"DNA? ... Oh God... Oh no... Oh no..." Myrr's eyes widened, realizing just what that creep could do with Solranous' strengths and apparent lack of weaknesses. Onyste's speed would make Solranous' crushing power that much more devastating. And if he got the powers of his Bankai...
Myrr faltered a few seconds, going into a slight daze.
"Oh no... no no no no no! It's... It's just like that morphing monster... from my time... no... worse." Myrr, unknowingly, started hyperventilating from panic.

Seeing Myrr hyperventilate like that was beginning to scare Mortis.
"CALM DOWN!" Mortis shouted out of panic.
He calmed himself down, knowing there was worse that could happen.
"look, he didn't say anything about attacking us. He left with all of his minions as soon as he got what he wanted from your father. Why he wants our abilities, I'm not sure. But please, calm down." He stated.
Mortis was so calm about this because he knew he had someone else to fear...
* * * * *
A pair of red eyes shone in the dark of one of the nearby trees, followed by a grin full of sharp teeth.

"Calm down!? You want me to calm down when their is potential super beast knocking at our doorstep!? I can't calm down just like that! Do you have any idea what kind of destructive potential Khimera has if he's gotten all of Solranous' abilities alone!? If he gets enough, he can level cities in days! Just because he left doesn't mean he's not gonna-" Myrr got cut off.
"SHUT THE F*** UP! I CAN HEAR YOU ALL THE WAY TO THE FRICKEN ABANDONNED DISTRICT! IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MUCH POWER KHIMERA GETS, I'LL CRUSH HIM IF HE THINKS HE CAN TAKE THE CITY LIKE THAT!" Solranous' powerful telepathic voice boomed, shutting Myrr up instantly and forcing her to calm down, though she was still reluctant.
"O-o-o-ok..." Myrr stuttered, on the verge of another hyperventilation fit.
"I'm sorry for yelling, but I woke up with a killer headache, and your panicking was just irritating it more. You think you get some killer headaches, but when us telepaths get them, all hell can break lose."
Myrr only nodded, shuddering. "Gomen..."

Mortis blinked in pain, hearing Solranous's mental shout as well.
"Ow."
He shook his head, then glanced up at Myrr, wings drooping.
Might as well ask her n- He thought, before stopping abruptly.
A strong-looking hand was set on Myrr's shoulder, a black-clothed entity connected to it. Mortis paled as the hand 'pulsed', and Khimera stated,
"Thanks for the info. Would you mind letting out your dark half for a second?"

Myrr spun, throwing a punch at Khimera's face. It hit, but it was Myrr who was left shouting swears from the pain.
"Ow! What hell is with him!? That should have sent him flying!" Myrr cursed, before glaring at Khimera and jumping across the spring away from him.
"You really expect either of us to agree with that? You can't force her out unless you kill me, and if you kill me; the instant she comes out she'll disintegrate into nothing! You won't get her like you got me, neither of us will allow it!" she proclaim bravely, pulling out her blaster and leveling it with Khimera's head.

((Head games, anyone?))
Khimera smirked, then asked,
"Come now, you wouldn't shoot your own father, would you?"
Khimera then looked exactly like the emerald dragon, even the voice was perfect. 'Solranous' smirked as he took a few steps towards Myrr, the smirk altering into a sadistic grin. The doppleganger was then standing behind Myrr, her father's tail blades shoved through her midsection as his clawed hand grabbed Myrr by the throat.
"Now... I'll tell you one more time. Bring out your dark half, or I'll just kill you and go find a Xenomorph..." He hissed into her ear.
He let out a small laugh, then added,
"Or... I could go after Shive..."

((Myrr: Surprise!))
The 'buisness end' of her blaster was suddenly shoved into the base of the doppleganger's neck, causing 'Solranous' to grunt in confusion and surprise.
"You are wrong, I would shoot my own father, because he would want me to if he fought against his own morals for any reason." Myrr hissed painfully.
"It doesn't matter how good your regeneration is, if you have any, I doubt you can survive being shot in the brain."
And shoot Myrr did, and as she fired, blood start to fly out from the doppleganger Solranous and leak out in small streams, even from the fake's mind. 'Solranous' howled painfully as ever so slowly, Myrr's attacks were ever so slowly building to a fatal standpoint.
She then jabbed her elbow into 'Solranous' gut, winding the dragon and toppling him as Myrr pulled herself off of his tail blades. She stepped back a bit, then gathered power for her Wind Bullets.

Khimera hissed angrily, repairing the damage. His form 'rippled' then he sprouted two other pairs of wings, his scales became mixed with black and blue, he sprouted a pair of Onyste's horns, and his maw resembled a cross between Solranous's face and Barias's mandibles. Energy streamed off of his horrid form, and he growled in several voices at the same time,
"You'll suffer for that, b*tch..."
He was about to walk forward, when both of his lower legs shattered into multiple pieces. He howled in pain, then looked down to see Mortis glaring at the alien hybrid.
"YOU LITTLE SH*T!" Khimera hissed.
Mortis was then sent flying after he recieved a powerful telekinetic blast, sending the wyrmling crashing into the nearby rock wall, splintering it. Khimera turned his glare to Myrr, then reeled his wings back before blasting Myrr with her own Wind Bullets attack. When the dust kicked up had settled, Khimera was gone. Mortis peeled off of the rock wall, bleeding from multiple points and a few bones could be seen jutting out of his frame. The dragon was still; not dead, just unconscious.

Myrr, however, was in worse shape, her body bleeding from multiple points from being hit with her own signature attack.
"Sh*t... I'm going to bleed to death at this rate..."
She was to weak to do anything, but as she laid there, her dark half was checking for any sign of Khimera. After not finding any, she appeared from Myrr's shadow and picked the two of them up, caring them to Solranous' house so they could be healed by the real dragon.
