   Yin was sitting up against a tree watching Cea and Vedran try to make a fire.

   Sit back and watch the men do the man's work.

   Those were Cea's exact words.
   Yin rolled her eyes. They have been at this for hours and still no fire. Both of them are idiots. Yin thought.
   "You guys are idiots." Yin said in a stating tone.
   "We are not." Cea said.
   "I could make a fire faster than both of you." Yin stated.
   "Oh really?" Cea asked.
   "Hey wait! Cea you're a dragon can't you breath fire?" Vedran asked.
   "Only certain dragons can breath fire." Cea explained. "Only certain powerful dagons.".
   "And you don't believe I'm a powerful dragon?" Yin questioned.
   "Can you breath fire?" Cea questioned.
   Yin stood up, smiling slyly, and walked over to the wood pile.
   "I can't breath fire." Yin stated, she held her hand up, her palm facing the wood pile, fire shot from her palm, and the wood lit in an instant. "I make fire." She said.
   "Whoa!" Vedran exclaimed. "That's awesome!".
   "Thank you." Yin smiled, and she sat back down against the tree.
   "Why didn't you do that before?" Cea asked.
   "Because I was supposed to sit back and watch the men do the work." Yin answered.
   Cea shook his head.
   "Next time, let's just let Yin make the fire." Vedran suggested.
   "Y'don't have to tell me twice." Cea said.
   Yin laughed.
   "Yin. How powerful are you?" Cea questioned.
   "That doesn't matter." Yin said.
   "It does matter." Cea stated.
   "No it does not." Yin argued. "Don't ask again." She ordered.
   Cea glared at her, but he didn't say anything.
   "So... what do we do now?" Vedran asked trying to break the awkwardness of the situation.
   "Now we roll out our sleeping mats." Cea stated.
   "Vad doesn't have a sleeping mat." Yin informed.
   "Then I guess he's sleeping on the ground." Cea said.
   "No." Yin said. "He can use my mat, and I'll watch." She said.
   "Fine you can take first watch, and the I'll take second and you can use my mat." Cea suggested.
   "Fine." Yin said, standing up, and rolling out her mat.
   Cea rolled his sleep mat as well.

   What is with those two? Vedran thought.
   It's like they hate each other~
   Vedran looked around. Who said that?
   Just a voice in your head~
   Voices don't usually call themselves voices. Vedran stated in a matter-of-fact tone in his mind.
   And I don't usually talk to people~
   The voice sounded mocking, it was metallic-y, but smooth, and comfortable as if it had spoken to Vedran a lot, and they were close, but Vedran was sure he had never heard this voice, and yet the voice was oddly familiar.
   What is your name? Vedran asked.
   I'm not going to tell you that~
   Why not? Vedran questioned.
   Because, I'm not... at least not yet Princey~
   The voice was obviously amused, or at least it sounded amused to Vedran.
   How did you kn-.
   I know lots of things Vedran, lots of things~
   Vedran wasn't sure what to think, or say to this voice now.
   By the way you can call me Eosfóros~
   Eosfóros?
   Yes~
   That's an odd name. Vedran stated in his mind.
   You are one of the few people who have told me that~
   Vedran was sure he heard a chuckle in Eosfóros's voice.
   Doesn't that name mean-. Vedran was cut off by Eosfóros before he could finish his thought.
   Yin is about to come talk to you~
   Really? You know Yin?
   I know a lot of people~
   Oh....
   Don't mention me talking to you to Yin~ or else.
   The last thing that Eosfóros said was not in his cheerful, metallic-y, smooth tone.
   It was evil.
   Wh-what? Vedran was kinda scared now, but all he got in answer was a fading chuckle.
   Then silence.
   "Vad! You need to make your bed... er mat." Yin called. "It's almost night time." She added.
   "O-okay." Vedran stood up bolt quick and went to make his bed (mat).
   "Vedran... are you okay?" Yin asked looking at Vedran, a hint of worry in her tone.
   Vedran looked at Yin, he was pondering actually telling her.
   Or else.
   Vedran put on a smile. "I'm fine." He lied cheerfully.
   Yin could tell it was fake., but she nodded in reply to hide the fact she did not believe him.

   A/N

   Told you it would be longer! You're welcome!
   I warned you about the Jealousy.

   Love y'all! •VαilJσηεs~Δ
