Mara stopped Riven from running and she hopped off. "Man, I always love when you are at full speed." She laughed and sat against the mountainside. I wasn't at full speed though. Mara closed her eyes and sighed, "I just needed some time to myself and figure out how I can help everyone better." Riven laid down next to her with his head on her leg. Zander watch from above and waited for the right moment to strike. "Well, isn't this our lucky day." A sinister smile grew on his face. He was a patient man and was willing to wait all day if he had to. Riven was tired from all the running and he wasn't even sure how far they have gone. I'm going to take a quick nap. Mara patted his head to help him sleep and as soon as he was asleep, Zander waited just a bit longer and when the time came he sent his people down to take care of everything. As they all stepped out of the forest Riven senses them and immediately stood up, but he was met with a spear to the side and a loud sound came from him. More and more came to make sure they were good enough to grab Mara without any trouble. "Riven!" She ran to his side and watched as her dragons blood was spilling on the ground. "Grab her and let's go." One of the men knocked her out with a large bat and everything had gone black. (Sorry it's long, a lot happened.)
(No, that’s good! Long paragraphs are usually a positive thing in my eyes.)
(Its not very good because I tried to keep it as short as possible, so sorry about that.)
(It looks fine to me. As long as it gets its point across, you know?)
Quinn flew down and Zander walked up to the passed out Mara. "Finally, now you're going to come with me." He picked her up and tied her to Quinn's back. "Sir, what about her dragon?" Getting on Quinn he took a quick glance at Riven and glared. He thought her dragon was weak and useless, just like her. "Leave it, it will die of blood loss anyway." Everyone followed Zander's lead and got on their dragons. "Now let's go see how Valkyrie is doing with her side of the mission." Qith so many large dragons around the wind was strong and blew Riven a few feet from where he laid. As soon as they were out of sight Riven ignored his pain and began to run back to where everyone else was, but it would take a bit longer due to the wounds all over his body he was dizzy and unable to run as fast, but he would do anything to save Mara.
Nox carefully watched what Oliver was doing, but she also kept a close eye on Aurelius, as she knew this could be a little dangerous.
Suddenly, she caught a whiff of blood on the air.
Hey, who’s bleeding?
Pollux looked up from where he was gathering herbs. He had a few leaves sticking out of his mouth- herbs he was using to treat himself.
“What’s going on?” He asked as he drew closer in to the group again.
Riven stumbles out the the woods and collapses on the ground. "Oh my gosh!" Oliver left nox and ran over to Riven. "Someone hurry over here!" He didn't touch Riven because light dragon blood was very hot, almost like they could be fire dragons but a bit different. The sun reflected off his scales and blood the glowed a bright silver color instead of red.
“Holy shit,” Pollux murmured when he saw what was happening, “I’ll be there. Give me a moment.”
He shifted the leaves in his mouth to his back teeth and chewed on them a little more to release some of his frustration and fear.
“Where are you hurt?” Pollux asked, trying to see around all the blood.
Where’s Mara? Nox added.
Riven was breathing heavily as he tried to talk. Many spears were stuck in his body, even he was surprised that he was alive. "Be careful when you touch him, try not to touch the blood as much as possible." Oliver went and grabbed some leaves and put them in some cold water. "We need to cool off his blood." Setting them on he realized that he was going to need a lot more leaves to do this. They took her. It was so sudden.
Took her? Nox cried out.
Pollux shook his head. “There’s no way. The blood keeps flowing. We can’t cool it all down. I’ll just…”
He looked around frantically. Nox knocked over Aurelius’ bag. Medical supplies in here. Is that what you need?
Pollux opened the bag and pulled out some of the supplies. He went for some heavy bandages and began to press a few of them into one of the wounds after very carefully pulling out the spear that caused it. A little droplet of blood got on his forearm. He muttered a few choice words, but continued working because he had to.
(Is anyone here? I have a little time to RP tonight if anyone wants to, but I’ll probably be gone for most of tomorrow)
(I'm here now but you're probably gone…)
(I’m still here for a little bit)
(cools, sorry I've been inactive the past few days btw, been super busy)
(Thats okay. I understand completely.)
(Okay, what's been happening in the rp?)
(So they found two kids who escaped the village, Oliver and Telara. They started flying towards another village even further north, but then Aurelius realized that he could maybe lend a hand to figuring out who the main perpetrator of the attacks was through speaking to some of the dead from both villages. They land because this needs to be done asap, and Aurelius starts the ritual. They’re all kind of waiting around for him to do his thing when Mara strays from the group and is captured.)
Took her? Nox cried out.
Pollux shook his head. “There’s no way. The blood keeps flowing. We can’t cool it all down. I’ll just…”

(alrighty)
Farron cursed under his breath, pacing backwards and forwards, "Do you have any idea where they went? Any clue as to why they would even take her?"
“They didn’t kill her… they must want something, right? Whether that be information or something else, I don’t know.” Pollux muttered, getting back to work after wiping off the dragon blood and shaking off the pain of the burn it caused.
"Is it possible they're using her for ransom? That they might want someone from us?" Farron frowned and sat down on a near by rock, Ysethen behind him.
“It’s possible. Anything is. I don’t really know who Mara is though… I don’t know enough to say anything about it,” Pollux said.
He carefully started removing another spear and working to stop the blood flow. Pollux felt the heat of the blood from under the bandages. He didn’t want to get any more of that on him, if he could help it.
"Do you need any help there, Pollux? I feel kinda useless just sitting here watching…" Farron sighed and ran a hand through his hair, watching the guy carefully.
“Please, if you don’t mind. I’m just trying to stop the blood flow at the moment. But do be careful. His blood is hot,” Pollux warned.
Farron nodded and walked over, pulling up his sleeves and crouching down next to Pollux, "Alright, what do you need me to do?"
“Mmm, could you keep some pressure on the places I already started to cover? I can work on safely removing the spears if you do that,” Pollux said. He didn’t even look at Farron, he was so focused on what he was doing.
