"We had been travelling for days. It was hotter than hell and it wasn't because of the climate. In my homeland, it is COLD in the winter. It was from a firefluke..and it was on our trail. We made it into the library thankfully it was snowed over and we got there after was was mere seconds that seemed like minutes-"

"Thanks to the firefluke's habit of lighting its whole body on fire through the gaseous glands under its eight legs and it's snakelike habit of rock rubbing making friction that ignites it." Rossi interrupted,both listening  to the story and reading his notes about dragons around the world."sorry sorry ...it helps me to speak what i read to memorize it..." She blushed softly in the light and looked away, a small human moment.

"Its alright.. Yes we got inside and it ...was filled with books! As if noone had disturbed the precious tomes since the incident! Y-ya know the one that made all the dragons appear." He sighs, hair falling in his face while he takes a long pause. She glanced over, feeling sorry for him.

"Its tough for us all. Take your time.. I used to be a student counselor in high school before the ..you know.. So im used to helping others find their words. Nowadays they dont need people like me.. So i try to find the truth.. Maybe be able to reverse it... Help life heal.."she realized she was being too open." So ya know take your fucking moment and finish! I havent got all night idiot.

He had a small smile "alright well... That's when the ceiling collapsed and alfred and matthew fell on us. We thought they'd been lost. They had been here since everything happened trying to figure it out..." He chuckled "they fell on top of me too so i kinda... Yelled my ass off at them. Anyway.. Since you listened may i be a bit more storylike?" A nod gave him his answer.

"So after we had those two, we started researching and reinforcing the building. We had a window open to let us get out and spot the beast if needed. It was two days..i was so tired and cold.. I wanted real food and my face was sunken in. We all were like that. But mathias came into my room. He told me that he found an old viking myth.. And since dragons were once myth, why not this? "He showed her the tale of people able to command dragons."so we decided why not give it a shot. Tracked down descendants but lost the trail after a few months."

"So why are you here?" She asks softly, the book in her hands now forgotten in leu of the story. She sat cross legged and head in her hands. Elbows on her knees, she stared entranced by the story. "You must have the trail or a clue!"

He chuckled pointing to her "correct! See we found this.."he opens another book and shows her the page."six months ago, we found out that there is an incantation that helps us find the area where the new dragon commander's leader will be and it lead us here." He looks up, icy blue eyes shimmering in the light of the candle."Rossi, we may find a way to make peace in this crazy world..."

"Do you think the Scavies can join you all?" Her eyes light up"you are smart enough on how to escape without killing dragons... We want to be like you. We all want to know more about our world. Its what Jackson would have wanted..." Her voice shakes as she thinks of her friend, a single tear rolling down her cheek.

Without thinking he lifted his hand, gently cupping her cheek and using his thumb to wipe the tear away, and spoke softly. "I think that would be alright with me. You all seem like you have the same drive as us." He smiled a gentle smile and pulled his hand away. "So, fair explanation?"

"Y-yeah." She nodded and smiled back. "Go to bed idiot.. We have a long day tomorrow." She headed down from the loft whispering"goodnight"
