I huffed as I dodged another attack from this great, red dragon. Despite that it's common to find a dragon in the game, it's honestly rare to see a red, fire breathing dragon. They're also the cousins of the Great King Dragon, so yeah, they're tough to kill.

"Demonske oluje!" Jam shouted, a large storm of flaming hail falling from the sky. (Demonic Storms)

I gulped for a bit of air as I summoned my Archangel Bow. I had gotten the beauty on one of our missions from a Fallen Archangel when I finished them off.

The bow was made out of what I think was hard diamonds with a mixture of pearls to give it its pure white look. The handle part of the bow was designed to look more like plants twisting and coiling around it, with the handle have little grooves were your fingers are suppose to go. At the top and bottom there were three fins that could cut through just about anything. The arrows though were these thin, sharp tipped white opal. 

I took a deep breath as I aimed straight at the dragon's eye. If it can't see us, we might be able to get away a bit more easily.

The beast's bright yellow eyes narrowed down on me, anger burning in them. I released the arrow, dropping to the ground a second later as its large claw swiped at me.

A mighty roar sounded from the creature as it stumbled back some. I quickly notch another arrow and fired at the eye.

Another howl of pain sounded around the area which made me wince in return. I didn't want to hurt the poor thing, but you gotta do what you gotta do when it comes to living or dying.

"Come on, this way!" Jam shouted, his eyes glaring darkly at the large beast.

I rushed over to him, replacing my bow with my small curved sword.

"Miris Lilly jorgovan." The Wizard whispered, giant bushes of Lilly lilacs forming as their heavy scent erased ours from the cave. (Lilly lilacs scent)

I gently tugged on Jam's arm, making a hurry motion with my hand.

He nodded at me and we quickly left the cavern with the now blind dragon. I still feel bad for them, they were only protecting what was theirs.

We ran up the steep mountain to where the Dragon Serpent that I had met a couple months ago lived... Well, we're strong together, so I think we can make it.

"L-Lets take a breather..." I panted out, my legs having gone numb some hours ago.

Jam said nothing as he simply picked me up and continued to walk a little longer till we got to a cave on a flat part of the mountain.

The walls were cold and nothing of this cave seemed out of the ordinary, so I guess we were one of the firsts to get this far up the mountain.

"Are you okay? You've been pushing yourself more than usual..." My friend worried, his blue and gold eyes searching my eyes for any answers.

I bit my lip and looked down, my cheeks becoming blue. A few days ago, I lost my sunglasses on a mission, so I usually kept my hood over my eyes whenever we're around other Players. I only really show my eyes to Jam, since he was the only person outside my family to like them.

"Freshy, you're not answering me. Are you okay?"

I nodded slowly, fiddling with my fingers as my blush darkened even more.

My friend said nothing as he sat down in the cave and held me close to him. Over the last month after we... after we kissed, he had gotten into the habit of having me in his lap with his arms caging me into his chest. I wasn't complaining, I could get actual sleep that way... And it felt warm and safe. Which honestly is odd as we're in a game and can't completely feel each other's body heat, more like sense it.
