Danny walked to the board on shakey legs, his eyes were bloodshot, his hair mussed. One could see he hadn't slept well the night before, if at all. A forlorn look on his face. He glanced around hoping for a note from Libby but there was none. He had no way of finding her, but he did have a way of contacting her. He pulled his portal wristlet out of his pouch and pressed a button on it. The button activated the pendant around Liberty's neck but rather than make a portal that lead to Velisaire the portal opened in front of him. He paced back and forth in front of the portal and waited for Liberty to come. They needed to find San and Dylyn. Being seperated from Dylyn and the flow of negative emotions he was receiving was tearing him up. He looked haggard as he pased, anxiously. Waiting on his friend.*

Jaeden's daughter sat down on the rock overlooking the waterfall's pool and she took a deep breath. She had gone to every haunt that she had taken Sanguinis to over the past five years. No luck.

She had asked all the pages, the cook and the kitchen help, the stablemaster and not one of them could remember seeing San since the day before he wrote the note.

She sat here looking out over the water to relax and to focus on the bond between them and that's when she noticed the flickering of the pendant Danny had given her and it was then she noticed the bright shimmering portal to her left.

Standing she walked through it.........




.......Danny??

She looked at Danny and heard his words....."This whole situation is falling apart...."

Her heart sank and she sighed, squeezing his hand gently before releasing it and stepping back from him, her body shifting in the light, the sun glinting off the silver scales of the small, swift dragon standing in front of him.

~MS/Draconian~ "Let's go, Danny....."

The silver dragon crouched for an instant and then pushed herself upward, the delicate looking wings taking her higher into the sky.

And the hunt begins.........

*Danny watched Liberty step back from him with forlorn eyes. Was she leaving, was she mad? A sigh started to escape his lips but it caught in his throat as the sun started glinting off her...scales. A hint of a smile touched Danny's eyes as he watched her change. She was draconian! Of course she was. He felt like smacking himself upside the head. She was Jaeden's daughter afterall. She had just as much, if not more draconian blood in her than he did. For just a moment the fear, the hopelessness, the residue anger from Dylyn, all of it dissapeared as Danny watched the graceful silver form change and prepare for take off. A wonderful voice in his native tounge touched his mind and he initiated his own change, electric blue scales, shot through with tiny streaks of black slid across his body and in moments a young blue dragon, the size of a clydesdale horse, was in the sky alongside the graceful silver one.*


~MS/Draconian~ "I'm with you Liberty. I can feel Dylyn's location. He's already made it out of the town. In the forest."
