A Chance Meeting [mature]

[Arkhor]

Only a few months after his 18th birthday he began his hunt for the night, The sun had set, leaving the darkness of the night to flood the forest with only a half moon to light the surroundings. Upon leaving his den he gazed up towards the night sky, as he sniffed at the air he smiled at the cold, crisp air rushing up his nose. Letting out a relaxed sighed he took flight, gliding over the treeline scanning the surface below him. Within a few moments he spotted movement down near some tall grass, turning towards the disturbance the gently landed on the soft ground, walking with light feet he crept towards the moving brush using his tail to help balance his movement. he silently unsheathed his claws preparing for a fast strike. Catching glimpse of a boar that seemed to be grazing off the ground, smirking at the sight he swiftly swiped towards the boar catching it off guard. His small claws pieced the thin skin of the boar, as it screeched from the pain his quickly placed his other claw over its mouth and ended its suffering.

As he finished the task he heard a crack of a twig close by, making him instantly alert that something was close, gazing around he was unsuccessful at finding the source. He could also hear the distance sounds of frogs croaking, knowing a pond must be close by. He thought to himself 'Must of been another animal scattering from the screech of the boar' but not to his knowledge he wasn't alone.

Astral being more a creature of the night than the day, wondered around the wilds aimlessly under the glow of the moon. She was so incredibly bored. She had spend most of the previous days keeping tabs on her little puppet. What his name she couldn't remember at the moment nor did she care too much. She found the mans reckless pursuit of fulfilling their common goal to be entertaining. Recently though her entertainment hit a bit of a dry spell. If he could not get things moving she would have to dispose of him. In the mean time she was at a loss as to what to do. Simply killing travelers was no long entertaining to the half dragon. Now she had to get creative with how she killed them inventing games of sorts. Even though the Megalonians were stupid unfortunately that were not so stupid as to attempt to travel the untamed lands of Iota at night. Unable to get any sleep Astral was dying of boredom. 

Thankfully her miserly was not to last as she heard the screams of something dying. Normally that in itself was no interest. Death was a very common occurrence in these lands. No what peaked her interest was the scent of human and another dragon. Her mind already throwing the pieces together the screams were obviously coming from a human. Even though it sounded more animalistic than a human scream, but Astral had witnessed strange noises coming out of their mouths in the face of death. It was obvious some particularly stupid human had decided to roam the lands at night and was lucky enough for their death to come at the hands of a dragon rather than some beast of the forest. After all very few got to see a dragon with their own eyes.

Rushing towards the sound Astral had to get there as quickly as possible. She was close enough that breaking out of the trees and flying the remaining distance would actually take longer. If she was lucky she could get there before the human died. Normally stealth was something that came naturally to Astral however such a thing was only a hindrance in this situation. She did not care if she snapped a few twigs along the way. "Don't kill it yet I want to play with it!" She shouted in the dragon language as she neared the location. The request did sound childish but in the eyes of dragons she really was still just a hatchling. Heck she was even young as far as Hatchlings go. She'd been put in her place many times by the adults, which often involved them grabbing her by the scruff of her neck and she was certain to be put in her places many more times in the future.

Finally arriving Astral was dumb struck by what she saw. A half dragon like herself stood over a recent kill. Half dragons were an extreme rarity. She had never seen another before in her life. The only reason she existed was because her particular species had evolved a unique trait to help them survive by mating with just about any race and the offspring would eventually being taken over by the dragons DNA. Leaving nothing but a 100% dragon offspring in the end. Of course this didn't help the victim race at all. Her particular subspecies was a parasite of sorts. Not that she actually knew anything about that. Her mother decided to fly off rather than explain this to her.

Another realization about this half dragon had Astral even more shocked. Not only was he a half dragon but he was a half dragon of her same sup species. They had the same tail fins, color, particular species scent and everything. On top of this he had to be the hottest dragon she had ever seen. She was sure her heart was skipping several beats. She actually found herself to not be breathing. After forcing herself to breath a little bit she ended up unconsciously going back to not breathing. This cycle continued for some time before she managed to compose herself enough to actually say something not to mention breath. "Uh hi?" she greeted nervously and awkwardly.

[Arkhor]

Moments later he heard another snap close behind him, pausing for a moment he sniffed at cold air, the scent was familiar but quite different. He glanced around again looking for something or someone who was watching him, catching glimpse of a stranger behind him, after a few seconds he realised that she was a half dragon too, but not just any kind of dragon, but the same species as him. Feeling shocked and surprised he smiled slightly when she greeted him and replied "err hey... How long you been there?" He asked nervously, It had been many years since he had spoken to anyone, let alone a female.

As he spoke he was amazed with her beauty, she had lighter coloured scales which shun in the moon light. Gazing into her eyes for a brief moment, it was hard to pull away from her dazzling eyes, where he could lose himself from their beauty. His hearted started to pulsate in his chest, with his dragon instinct going crazy he blurted out "I'am Eclip...Eclipse, I thought I was the only one...." He expressed with a joyful tone, excited and happy to find somebody that was like him.

As he lifted away from the fresh kill, he continued with, "You wanna share?" He asked with a smile, after all its best not to be rude. As he curled his tail around his left leg, picking up the boar and he sliced it in half with his claw. She was quite smaller than him, and appeared to be slightly younger. He crept slowly forward as he handed out half of the boar in a friendly manner.

[Kate]

"I....have no idea." Astral said in response to the question. She was still having a hard time believe she wasn't dreaming. Course she never had a dream like this before. His eyes locked with hers and the two stared into each other. Her dazz broke when he introduced himself. When he introduced himself she noticed he spoke in the common tongue. In fact he hadn't responded to anything she had said in the dragon tongue. Maybe he couldn't speak it. Either way her tail began wagging back and forth as joy swelled within her and the shock faded away. "Hi Eclipse I'm Astral I thought I was the only one as well." She spoke in the common tongue this time. 

Astral ran towards him to get a closer look. He offered her a meal but she turned it down saying "No I'm not hungry right now." She stood only a few feet from him and began circling him inspecting his every detail. Half of it was curiosity in meeting another of her kind and the other half was marveling at how hot he was. His scales were much darker than hers and he didn't seem as far along in his half dragon transformation as she was. His body had only just recently started growing scales on it. Astral had gained all her scales in a single day. This guy didn't seem to be growing any at the moment. Maybe males got them much slower, lucky. Her transformation had been very rapid and painful. "How come you don't speak dragon?" Astral asked Eclipse

[Arkhor]

Eclip relaxed his muscles as he watched her circle him, giving her a curious look, he blushed slightly as he also took the opportunity to look at her tail and back. She was all covered in scales, clearly she was further through the changes. After she didn't accept his offering, he eat his half keeping hold of the other half in case she changed her mind.

As she finished circling he replied to her question, "Er... I don't know it..." he sighed and continuing "I didn't have a parent to teach me..." He was surprised at how similar they where, apart from the colour of the scales they had the same features, but he was still partly human. His black scales had been slowly growing throughout his time alone, first taking over his legs and chest, then his hands and feet as they spread upwards towards his head. He knew eventually he would change into a dragon. It seemed that Astral was going through the changes as well.

[Kate]

Eclipse didn't seem to mind as she circled him. He ate his meal while looking at her a bit. He certainly wasn't being as weird as she was. He answered her question by explaining he didn't have any parents to teach him. Astral felt a pain of sympathy for him. She had lost her parents to but at least she got to be with her mother most her life so far and when she disappeared the dragon community took her in and raised her. Well actually she was still technically being raised by them. She was still a hatchling. "So you don't know anything do you? What about the chin thing?" Astral asked scratching under her chin as a hint. It was like tickling in that you couldn't induce it by yourself.

[Arkhor]

sighing again he replied "No... I was raised by a human, so I don't know much about dragons" curiously tilting his head he asked "What chin thing?"  as he watched her tickle her own chin to show, trying himself he didn't feel anything out of the ordinary, giving her a playful smile. "So you where raised by dragons?" he asked with a curious look glancing towards her eyes again. He began to wonder what knowledge he missed out on, of course most of his knowledge was from living like a human and learning how to survive.

[Kate]

Oh my gosh he didn't know about the chin thing. How could he not know about the chin thing. She assumed since he didn't know about the chin he didn't know about the neck either. How could he not know? She had to teach him but at the same time how could she? Hatchlings weren't suppose to teach hatchlings things. It just wasn't right. "Yea I was raised by dragons. If you want i could show you to my famliy and maybe they'll take you in. That or I could try and teach you, but its prolly not a very good idea for a hatchling to be trying to teach another hatchlings things. I'm sure if my parents found out they would kill me. Theres lots of thing I do though that they don't know about."

[Arkhor]

Eclipse shyly bit his bottom lip, "You really think they would accept me...?" he thought it would a great idea to gain a somewhat family, after all he has been lonely all this time. But he had doubts if they accept him with him being half human after all, but hope shun through him, after all they took care of Astral maybe he had a chance. "I don't mind what you want to do... I would be happy either way" blushing slightly he smiled as he unwrapped his tail around his leg and it hovered just above the ground. Could this be his lucky day? he thought a chance to gain a new friend and a family, a group that would be like them after all.

[Kate]

Astral saw the half dragon male bite his lip. It was clear this would mean a lot to him. "Ya of course. I mean they welcomed me in why wouldn't they you? And at the time they accepted me I didn't look the least bit dragon. Well except for the eyes. Were finding you a family."

Astral stretched out her wings. From their folded up position you would never guess they are as large as they are. Faning out her tail fins in turn Astral took to the sky and flew off towards her parents den. Checking back to make sure Eclipse was following.

Astral actually had her own den. Another thing her parents didn't know about. She was technically supposed to be living with her parents but she had made it a habit of staying away from home for long periods of time. Even though she was a hatchling its not like they cared. They hadn't even had her for 10 years which really isn't all that long to a dragon and with all the time shes spends away it didn't seem like they would ever truly be her parents.

Arriving at the hole in the mountain which was home to her parents and was suppose to be home to her too, Astral led Eclipse to what a dragons version of a living room was. Both her parents happened to be in the room. They were both fire dragons. Her father was orange and stood 30 feet tall. Her mother was red and stood 37 feet tall. "For how long your gone its a surprise you come home at all. Do you even want to be apart of this family?" Her father asked Astral before sniffing the air. "Why do I smell human?" After he said that, that is when Eclipse made his appearance. "Mom dad this is Eclipse. Hes an orphan and needs a family. He doesn't even know how to speak dragon." Astral said. This was of course all said in the dragon language. Astral yelped when her father came over and picked her up by the nape of her neck. She of course went limp from the hatchling reflex. Her father took her into another room for a little lesson on manners, leaving Eclipse with Astral's mother. "Alright whats your story hun?" She asked the half dragon in the common language.

[Arkhor]

As he nervously entered the den he gazed up towards the 2 large fire dragons, noticing that Astral was speaking in the dragon tongue, he did feel a bit left out at first. As the father took Astral by the scruff of the neck he noticed she went completely limp, gasping at first, due to not knowing about the hatchling reflex. Moments later Astal and the father left to another room, as he was left with the mother. Still feeling nervous then dragon spoke up, this time in the common tongue, replying with a nervous tone "err..err.. I had to leave my mother... She was human and my father was a dragon... But he died before I was born.." Ending with a saddened tone and continued "I've been alone for around 5 years I think." Curling his tail around his leg again was a clear sign of feeling nervous.

Lord of the rings opening narrator: 
Two weeks has past since the trouble making half dragon by the name of Astral found a male half dragon of the same race, Eclipse. Joining Astral's family he began learning of his heritage. The father though kept a watchful on the new additions to the family. He had given the male a strong warning not to get too close with his daughter. Little did he realize his daughter could be the real problem. Our story starts at the beginning of the biggest change in Astral's life.

Astral:
It had been two weeks since Eclipse had joined the family.He was only just getting the very basics of the dragon language and still hadn't even begun learning how to write. Their parents had forbidden any language other than dragon to be spoken. Though before Eclipse showed up nobody spoke anything other than dragon anyways without it being a rule. "Best way to learn a language is being forced to learn it in order to communicate." Their parents would say. Eclipsed learned first hand what the hatchling reflex was whenever he accidentally spoke in the common language. He'd be dragged into his room for a time out. They also taught him all about dragon behavior. Even how they show affection and the chin thing. Though they didn't tell him what the chin thing does. Something Astral thought wasn't very fair since she not only knew it but actually knew what it felt like. Well she didn't know what a proper kiss there felt like.

One day when she was wandering around a Megalonian settlement disguised as a cat a long lived elf lady came by and picker up. Astral was about the rip the old women to shreds for petting and scratching all over her head. Before Astral could though the old women reached the under part of her head. It was all over after that. It felt so good she purred loudly and went utterly limp from the bliss. Worse of all when the old lady saw the cat really liked that she just wouldn't stop. Even after it was all over and she was set down it took Astral awhile before she even bothered getting up. Safe to say since that day she has never disguised herself as a domestic animal again. The news that an actual lick was even better made Astral shiver just thinking about it. That day had traumatized her in a way. She gets really defensive now about anything coming anywhere near her head.

Though they weren't suppose to talk in anything but dragon the two half dragons would sometimes take off to somewhere remote so they could actually hold a proper conversation in common. Now was one of those days. Their meeting spot; Astrals den. Of course Astral got here first. She waited in the room where she collected the shinyiest most vivid gems she could find. She had a small pile of about 4 feet so far and she was so very proud of that pile.

[OOC: You already know what the den is its the same one as at DRF. Only with a far smaller gem pile. Its a crap ton harder to collect the best gems when your not a goddess.]

[Arkhor]

Eclip was enjoying his new family, apart from the hatchling reflex when he accidentally spoke in the common language, Leanring the language at first was tricky, leading to many mistakes. After the first few days he successfully learnt greetings and common phrases. He did have good teachers, and of course being forced  to speak it in the family den did have its benefits learning. Soon it made him frustrated making mistakes, but he was glad to have some of his 'own' kind to be with. After being told about the chin thing he did feel left out, without fully experiencing the touch. Luckily he had Astral to talk to when they would sneak out, without being forced to talk in the dragon tongue.

Since two weeks have past, his transformation has spread further now the scales have expanded up his neck starting to spread up his face, his arms and legs are almost fully covered. The changes seemed to have increased in speed ever since he meet Astral, still it was unknown to him what he was turning into. His instincts have gotten stronger too, at this rate he would be fully scaled within a week or two. Yet it didn't bother him so much, after he didn't like humans as he felt more of a connection with his own kind.    

Eclip was finishing up one of his lessons learning about the dragon language as normal, he started to feel bored, after all he had been focused on learning it with his new parents. Deciding to take a break, he choose to meet up with Astral at her den. After all he did want to spend more time getting to know her, upon finally arriving at the den he entered the cave. Spotting Astral he smiled, and spoke the common tongue for a change, "Hey, what did you want to do today?" he asked as he walked further into the den. Eclipse did like Astral's den, it was amazing with the waterfall outside providing a hidden safe place, including her gem pile filled with shiny stones. Glancing towards her his eyes locked onto hers, admiring the beauty he smirked and awaited her response.

[Kate]

Eclipse asked Astral what she wanted to do today. Honestly she wanted to go terrorize some travelers it made her feel better about herself that she really was a dragon on the inside. Eclipse though seemed to have a better connection with the bipeds though since he was raised by his human parent. There was another thing eating at her mind though.

Astral had come to really like Eclipse like more than just a friend. He had been adopted into the family but they weren't actually blood related. Plus he was of her own species! When was she ever going to get a chance like this again. It would be a shame to give him up as just her brother. There was also one other thing that was on her mind. What was a lick like? Why she was wondering that over actual sex was a bit odd. Shes been scratched under the chin before so had a glimpse of what its like and then is told a true lick is even better! That't just torture! Besides Arkhor had no idea what even a scratch was like. 

"I have one idea." Astral said her tail swishing about in a nervous manner. "We could experiment a bit, with...........kissing?" Astral said asked. Even if he was against the idea she had a way to lure him in. Besides wasn't like they would get in trouble. They were in a secret place and it was Astral initiating it wasn't like Eclipse was forcing himself on her or anything. Plus what did their parent really care? They were just the disappointing children of a rich snobby family. A perfect comparison.

[Arkhor]

As he watched her gently swishing her tail as she responded he blushed including his own tail wrapping around his leg. Smiling slightly he replied, "Ermm.. sure, but what about our parents?" he heart leaped from Astral's idea, after all he did have a crush on her from the moment he met her. But after being warned from his new father, he didn't want to get into trouble after all or even get her into trouble. As he pondered he bit his bottom lip, he knew that it was very unlikely that their 'parents' would find out. Creeping close he smirked again continuing to gaze into her eyes. After all he did want to find out what it felt like, but not knowing what a simple scratch was like he didn't truly know the experience he would feel. Continuing with a gentle voice "Alright..." waiting for her response after all he didn't know what to expect, or what was a dragon kiss.

[Kate]

Eclipse expressed his concern about their parents. "Don't worry they'll never find out." She assured him. She almost slipped and made a comment about them not caring but managed to hold her tongue. Eclipse needed a family and she wasn't going to do anything to ruin it for him.

Eclipse then agreed. Actually going along with the plan was a lot harder than talking about it and that was hard enough. "Alright uh first I guess I'll show you what I know." Astral said her voice a little shaky. A lot of confusing emotions were going on right now but the one that stood out the most was fear. Reaching her hand forward Astral scratched his lower jaw and watched the bliss take him. Seeing him in such a state and hearing his pleasured growls really eased her nervousness and fears. "Now I'm told a true kiss is way better." Astral would say to him as soon as he recovers. Immediately there after giving a true kiss, a lick across the jaw. Astral kinda felt bad not giving him a chance to object. Once he again recovered from his bliss which did seem to last much longer this time she would ask "So how was it?"

[Arkhor]

Eclipse smiled nervously, upon watching Astral's hand reach out to his chin, as she scratched against his newly formed scales edging towards his jaw. He gasped and couldn't help but give out a low growl almost purr like, the sensation was unbelievable, he didn't want it to end. Now he understood what she was talking about when they first met. The pleasurable touch made him close his eyes and smile happily, as he slowly unwrapped his tail it flickered clearly showing the pleasure.

Letting out a joyful sigh after the short lived scratch, he opened his eyes reeling from the sensation only to spot Astral coming in closer, again blushing as they where now face to face. Suddenly she slowly licked against his jaw, the sensation was mind blowing he couldn't believe how strong the feeling was, he couldn't help but again closing his eyes and 'purring' from the sheer amount of pleasure, as it sent a cold shiver down his spine right down to his tail tip, flickering his tail in excitement. after purring he sighed out "Oh... wow...". Only a few minutes from the contact he reeled out of the sensation and responding to her question with a smile "That... was amazing... I better return the favour" quickly smirking he edged in closer, as he gently expelled warm air out of his mouth against her jaw, almost teasing but slowly rubbed his tongue against her jaw, making sure to increase the duration his eyes locked onto hers as he watched her reaction.

[Kate]

Astral herself smiled as Eclipse recomposed himself. This reminded her of the time she used magic to torture a traveler with arousal and pleasure. It was amusing up till the point he began looking at her for relief at that point she killed him.

Even though she saw what it had done to him and he exclaimed how great it was she wasn't really getting it in detail. She wanted details dammit. Astral didn't have the chance to voice her frustrations as Eclipse voiced his intent to "return the favor." Astral's eyes narrowed in fear. She didn't know if she was ready. Just a scratch was overwhelming enough. She did not like losing control. Eclipse came right up and breathed on her jaw sending shivers down her body. The actual kiss came directly after that. His tongue sliding across the underside of her jaw sent pleasurable waves all over her body literally causing her to collapse from the overwhelming pleasure. Her eyes shut and she purred. After recovering herself she tackled Eclipse and began dragon kissing him non stop. She'd already developed a game of sorts out of it. If he wanted to go further he was going to have to physically stop her. Other wise she would just keep it up till he was exhausted.

[Arkhor]

Eclipse watched as Astral was overcome with the sensation, as she fell he smirked with a slight chuckle. Within moments she recovered and tackled him, both of them fell onto the ground as Astral began kissing him continuously, Eclipse couldn't help but feel the effects, giving off a low growl which he couldn't seem to stop. Closing his eyes he body shivered as his scales tingled from the pleasure, as she continued to lick his jaw he was being overwhelm with the feeling of bliss, as it grew stronger which turned into a tickling sensation, making him fill up with laughter. Not being able to stop growling he started to laugh trying to stop her, but it was difficult his body spasmed with his tail continuing to swipe around scraping the ground. "A...As..Astral....Gahhh...St...Stop.." he spoke with an exhausted tone, mixed in with laughter and the growl. He had to stop, deciding to try he rolled away giving him a slight breather, as he catched his breath keeping his eyes on Astral, smirking he couldn't help but chuckle from the experience.

[Kate]

Astral was greatly disappointed as Eclipse rolled out from under her to get away. He was acting like a child trying to get away from a tickling. "How much sympathy do you have for the bipeds? I know you were raised by humans but your being raised by dragons now. Do you still care for them? Just how dragon are you in the heart?" Astral asked finally realizing that he might be torn between both races of his ancestry. She was half dragon too but her heart and thoughts were all dragon. She had just assumed it was the same for Eclipse even if he was raised by his human half. She now felt foolish for thinking such a thing.

[Arkhor]

As Eclipse listened to her question he sighed frowning slightly , "Well... I don't care for them much anymore after what happened with me... the only person that I really respected was my mother. But being alone for so long I grew to hate them... So yeah I can't forgive them so you could say I'm more dragon than human" With Astral asking questions about his feelings made him feel a bit awkward, as he rolled back he positioned himself sitting on the cold floor, looking up towards Astral with a slight sad look in his eyes. He did feel hurt from the question about his true feelings, curling his tail around his leg again. Gazing into her eyes again he asked "Do you think I'm cold hearted?"
