[DL-C] Back in the saddle again
by
SPlDERwmn@aol.com

     Ankara laid down on her bed exhausted.. the training flights were 
getting quite intense.

      She had never had such a work out in her whole life. The dragons were 
thrilled and elated.. they diddnt feel a bit tired.

<Lets go get some food Ank. Were hungry!>

     She groaned and rolled over to face the wall. "but im too tired now 
Ivee! Can't you and Eness wait untill later to eat? I havent eaten either.. 
all day! I got up at the crack of dawn for the training flight, then we 
worked at stacking coal for hours. My arms are acheing from lifting coal, my 
back hurts from bending over, my feet are sore from running after Eness, my 
butt hurts from the saddle, and my throat hurts from coal dust!"

<wah wah wah, what a big baby. You know if I could hunt for myself I would.>

Ankara sighed "Im sorry hun.. Ill take you both to the feeding grounds 
now..." 

     When she sat up Eness lifted her head from where it was laying on the 
floor in the entrance, a draconic grin spread across her features and she 
jumped up and hopped up and down excitedly, her head bobbing in the doorway. 
"ahh your hungry too eh? ok ok.. just let me get my boots on!" she couldent 
help but smile at the giant dragons puppyish behavior.

     Moments later they were winging over to the feeding grounds, Ivee 
sitting in front of Ankara on the saddle like a hood ornament, her claws 
clutching the leather and her wings partially outstreached to catch the wind.

<whee! I love this!> Ankara giggled, she loved this feeling too.. wind in the 
hair, the gentle beat of the wings... Eness wasnt the most acrobatic dragon.. 
in fact she moved like a ice sled.. all momentum and very little control.

     Eness landed with a gentle thump, and Ankara and Ivee dismounted. The 
gust of air from Eness's wings  as she took off again nearly nocked them both 
flat. Ankara smiled as she watched Eness clumsily swoop down over the herd 
and grabbing a old and slow buck from the rear of the stampeding herd.

     Eness brought the buck back and allowed Ivee the first choice of meat. 
Ankara watched with discust and admiration as the two dragons shreadded the 
beast between gleeming Ivory teeth.
________________

     Later after the girls were washed Ankara whent to the dining hall with 
Ivee while Eness took a nap back at the apartment alcove.

"Ivee, your the only dragon I know that can fit in the dining hall nearly 
full grown."

<lucky me.. I get table scraps!>

NRPG-

figured that it was time that we get those darn dragonlings flying.
Ankara is flight ready.. though I doubt Eness will ever be good at fighting 
wraiths.. 
however she is willing and able to work.. so feel free to assighn her to just 
about anything.

is M'yer still interested in Ankara? or is he getting sick of her shy ways?
