Morro POV
After talking with my Prince I began getting ready to go to the Eye, the Eye was an underground exclusive city; located at the center of the Dark Islands eye. The beings that lived there were humanoid Scorpions, they were merchants who were sly as can be. The Pack always stayed near the Eye, they could get supplies from there and not have them raid their home. Their home however was unknown to everyone but them. To find them I would need to scout out the Eye.
"Mistral you have to stay here for this one, ok?" I told the Wind as I was heading out. He gave a simple nod before I transformed and headed out. Our base was at the southern tip of the Dark Island, and the Eye at the northern, so it would take about an hour to get there.
The Eye was completely surrounded by water, the only way across was a single bridge. If you snuck in you would be recognized immediately and killed or thrown out.
I landed and returned to my hybrid form, and approached the guard stationed at the bridge entrance. The scorpion there was a blackish red with yellow eyes. He extra limbs clacked on the stone bridge. He wore the dark gold colour of their army force, his barbed tail lashed behind them agitatedly.
They looked like they were deciding whether or not I was a threat, they must have decided not. They let me approach the bridge, I bowed to them. A sign of respect and submission.
He spoke in a high dark voice, "What is the meaning of your entrance?"
"I'm here to bargain," I responded in the normal distorted growl.
"Your one of the Pack's kind, are you not?" He questioned darkly.
I sighed, of course he knew them. "Yes I am," I growled calmly.
"They agreed to only come on Saturdays, so why are you here now?" He seemed extremely suspicious of me.
"Oh, did they? Well thank you. I was looking for them," I snarled darkly, the calm facade gone. The sudden change startling the guard, "I'll be back to see them," With that I turned and left.
I camped out on one of the surrounding Mountains, the Eye is in a basin surrounded by high mountains. These mountains were completely unlike the Mountain that we call home, these were normal mountains, they were dark but not light absorbing.
Two days later, they appeared. The Pack
There were seven of them, each a dragon hybrid with their own Element. They were all extremely powerful with their own Element, and their dragons.
They were led by Theron, Hunt Element. Their element allowed them to sense heart beats, track by any sense, use long claws, and perfectly hide themselves. Theron is the ultimate hunter.
Their partner Khamari or Mari, Dream Element. He has a formidable element. He could cause anyone to fall asleep by a simple touch, and control their dreams, from there he could control them in the waking world.
Next was Kikimora or Kiki, her element is Nightmare. Similar to Khamari she learns people's worst fear with one touch and becomes it, and attacks them with it, no matter how obscure.
Neo the element of Transphormation, he can change any object into another with one touch, the size can't be huge or anything like that, he can change himself as well and others, only if they allow it.
The element of Echo is Bekura's, xe can copy any sound xe hears and can hear sounds no one else can. Bekura can track were the sound waves are, and can emit a noise to tell where objects are.
Aranea has the element of Thread. Fae can summon and control thread and string, fae can sense how people are connect to each other, through heir strings of fate. Fae can use faer thread to create webs, similar to a spider.
The Space element is Aurelia. Zhe can teleport to any place zhe's been to, zhe can take people with zhim, but it takes a lot of energy. Zhe can sense when a person has their own element or when a portal is opened.
Together they make an extremely formidable team, I had to talk to them before they reached the guard. The guard would tell them about me and they would leave in a hurry.
I flew down the Mountain at the fastest speed I could go for a small distance. I landed in between them and the guards, there was still quite a distance, but I don't think I could win in a fight. Even a one on one, well maybe with a few of them.
"What do you want Morro?" Theron snarled in my direction, his voice was ruff and scratchy. Their dark orange eyes flashed dangerously. The rest of the group stood ready to fight.
"We need your help," I sighed before continuing. "I need your help."
"The plans need to be accelerated," Aurelia said absently. Not a question, a statement. I nodded, though there was no need to. Zhe was always right.
"Then why isn't Lloyd here?" Aranea asked, fae looked ready to strike, but fae always did.
"He's busy with the Ninja and the Dragon Elemental Master," I growled softly.
A look of shook passed over their faces, a Dragon element would be very powerful. But that would also mean that there was an Oni element, or even angel and demon elements.
Khamari finally spoke, breaking the shocked silence, "We should take this elsewhere, or enter the Eye," he spoke like he always did,like he had better places to be besides the present.
"We enter the Eye," Theron growled firmly, "Your coming with us," He roughly grabbed my arm and dragged me with him, I didn't risit. There really was no point.
"Don't touch anything," Neo and Kikimora growled at the same time.
To my surprise it was Khamari who went up to talk to the guards, they seemed to really like him. Khamari was always the one who hated small, dark spaces. He was this soft tall boy, it made no sense. Then I noticed a set of beads woven into his white-pink hair and light blue horns, the set of beads was tied to a warriors horns or head. These warriors were held in the highest esteem, and respected by all.
How did Khamari have this? This title of power and respect?
The market was like the last time I was here: shady and busy. The group stopped just after entering and turned to Bekura, xe looked to be listening to something. Xe had xyr eyes closed and was concentrating. Xe gave stall numbers to each of the group and split in different directions to each stall.
Vendors yell out different prices for each of their items, trying to get you to buy them. Bekura must have listened to each Vendor's price and found the best ones. As I followed Theron something caught my eye.
A vendor was selling creatures, there were baby dragon eggs in one of the enclosed areas. There were two eggs: one a sunny yellow that seemed to glow, and a pale gray one that shone slightly. Those were Sun and Moon dragon eggs, they were laid once every thousand years and the dragons born from them were extremely powerful.
"Theron!" I called to the hunter, and whispered, "Do you know what those are?"
"Dragon eggs?" they responded, confused by why I would ask.
I looked him right in the eyes and said, "There Sun Moon dragon eggs,"
Their eyes widened in surprise, "We need to get them out of here."
"Agreed," I nodded.
We approached the vendor at the back, "How much for the two eggs at the front?" Theron questoned.
"2000," The vendor, Yerza, responded in a bored, high pitched tone.
"Here," Theron handed him a bag of coins.
"You have 2000," I whispered to the hybrid.
He shrugged and ran, grabbing the eggs and running.
"Bro!" I yelled, running after him, "Sorry, were in a hurry!" I yelled to Yerza.
