Aetheiria explained that there was no need to changed into his dragon form, for she herself was in human form for the time being. She awaited his permission, and when she got it, she walked in. She had yet to see him as a human, as this was not an ability that they had when they were young. His hair was solid white and his eyes a piercing green. He was wearing dark colored clothing and she admired the muscles he had bulging from underneath his shirt. He was attractive and his looks sent shivers down her spine, though she brushed it off. She had yet to begin a conversation, so he spoke first, "So...what do you think about this whole arranged mates situation?" His voices lowered, "Is there someone else you'd rather be with?" Her eyes narrowed and she spoke with a harsh tone, "I don't see how that's any of your concern." She answered. She watched as he shift his feet, seeming unsure as to how to approach her. She began looking around his den and re approached the question, "I think that it's out job as future elders. And we need to withhold that job wit the proper grace demanded of us." Her voice a contradiction of soft and scolding. Fraener began to speak with an answer, though she beat him to it, "Speaking of demands. We are being summoned. Something about announcing our partnership to a few important dragons. And knowing them, they'll probably want to send us off on some mission together." His response was immediate, "Alright, then we should go." Though his voice remain calm, she could hear the smallest tint of excitement. Though she brushed it off with annoyance.<br/><br/>They walked outside of his den, changing into their dragon forms and began walking to a cave nearby. There were eleven dragons in the hold,  all of which held up a high importance, though only a few knew about the arrangement. They each mingled among the other dragons, many demanding her attention, wanting to hear her stories of triumph over the past century. As she spoke, she would watch Fraener out of the corner of her eye, he spoke to the other dragons with such grace, it was no wonder he would become an Elder some day. They gathered for a speech, though not noteworthy. It explained the future of the dragon race, and the excitement everyone shared of Fraener and Aetheiria's partnership; that it will be for the better. Aetheiria nuzzled against Fraener's large head to signify their happiness, though the falseness off it was hidden. As everyone left, they were instructed to stay behind by the Red Elder. He explained,<span style="font-style: italic">You two are to begin training together. To create that bond to work together in any situation. Fighting, ruling, anything. This is of the utmost importance. You will begin tomorrow and everyday that follows. And from there, you will be sent to begin missions. Aetheiria, I except you to begin socializing with the other dragons. You have been gone for much time and are out of practice.</span>Though there was no room for disagreement, they nodded in understanding. They were dismissed and they left, walking out together. She heard his voice in her head, though she blocked him out and took off, making her way to her own den while she still could. She was relieved to get to sleep, and she did so quickly.<br/><br/>She awoke at dawn, with Fraener nuzzling her mind to awake. She pushed him away, not ready to start the say, though she felt his persistence. She changed into her human form and began the effort of getting ready, throwing on her battle gear. Armor ran up the length of her arm, across her chest and back. Her boots were high and armoring, though her thighs were uncovered. She grabbed her sword and left with Fraener by her side. They made it to an arena, ready to duel. He reached in to shake her hand, though she shoved it away and said, "Let's see what you've got" And they began. Her moves were swift and quick, using power moves to avert his sword. He was graceful and a tough opponent. A large crowd was beginning to form around them as they fought. The battle was long and she was surprised by his skills. She pushed her sword forward, hoping for a shoulder attach, though he moved, caught her off balance and pushed her down against the ground, putting his sword near the top of her face. Defeat. He smiled at her, cocky, and pulled his sword away, raising his arms in triumph, with the dragons around him screaming. She got up and threw her sword down in defeat and frustration. She had never been beat like this in many years. She grabbed onto his shirt and growl, "This will not happen again." And let him go and pushed him, his face still smug as he looked at her. She marched away heading towards a nearby mountain angry.<br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="https://www.google.com/imgres?um=1&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=N&amp;rlz=1C1SKPC_enUS335US354&amp;biw=1366&amp;bih=653&amp;tbm=isch&amp;tbnid=ur6j7udtPA3DMM:&amp;imgrefurl=http://fluffybunnypwn.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html&amp;docid=X2XiIrEa9tr7hM&amp;imgurl=http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qZPv6LB1LG8/TdyTuOh8wbI/AAAAAAAAAKU/AVtaAKvA1yo/s1600/warrior-angel2.jpg&amp;w=553&amp;h=800&amp;ei=e_WAT_7WMsfEtweXg5CvBg&amp;zoom=1&amp;iact=hc&amp;vpx=172&amp;vpy=142&amp;dur=413&amp;hovh=270&amp;hovw=187&amp;tx=101&amp;ty=156&amp;sig=108323566483394585922&amp;page=1&amp;tbnh=124&amp;tbnw=90&amp;start=0&amp;ndsp=23&amp;ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0,i:84">Warrior Clothes</a>
