Aurora was growing a bit tired. The barrier took a lot of mental stamina and she had not used it very often. Thus it took greater stamina from her. It was different from magic as it was not mana based. It was not based off magical energy but aura and mental thought. It was, however, often mistaken as a new form of magic. It was considered an extremely rare magical art...psionics was. She had grown weary and was shaking a bit and holding her head before her hand fell to in front of her. She swayed a bit and then began to crumple forwards. She felt herself be caught but was already slipping into a form of sleep as she was no blissfully unaware of the handsome male who had caught her.<br/><br/>Her dragon Junari growled and puffed out smoke. All four wings flapping up and down as a sign of aggitation. He did not trust the strange male who had suddenly appeared. He trusted him less because of what he had seen him do. Growling quite protectively in a way it almost seemed hostile. Yet he did not strike or try to take her from the male. He was watching him to see what he would do. Watching him and his long phoenix mixed with dragon tail moved as if readying to snatch her from the man. His eyes watching the man as if the slightest mistake would cause him to strike at the man. It probably would because he loved his "mother" and was over protective of her. He heard Durnhviir trying to talk to him. Growling mentally at him.<span style="font-style: italic">She is like my mother. I have every right to not trust a strange male with my princess mother.{/i] He thought back to Durnhviir. Not quite believing him. [i]One wrong move and I will fight to protect her. You understand right? She is my charge and I must protect her at all costs. I will trust your judgment for now old one.</span>With that his head moved and laid on her leg. Almost as if willing her to wake as he nudged her lightly with his head. Licking her leg lightly. Just one quick lick but it was obvious the affection he felt towards his person. "Hurt my princess and I will have to hurt you." He growled out in common from his mouth. The words naturally coming out as a deep rumbling growl but that was just because dragons normally couldn't talk from their mouths in human tongue. He had learned from his princess.<br/><br/>Aurora was slowly starting to regain energy. That was the only positive thing about psionics use. The energy began instantly restoring itself by using the persons personal aura. She let out a soft whimper as if fearing the worse. It soon faded as her eyes began to delicately and beautifully open up. Her pointed elven ears showing with the way her hair was falling. She hadn't quite come to realization that her head was laying in a strange male's lap. She was very disoriented at the moment. Her vision not focusing at first. Slowly reality became clearer and she looked around. Still quite physically drained as she came to the realization a strange male had her head in his lap. She let out a soft scream of fear. Trying to gain the energy to pull away. Was he going to hurt her?<br/><br/>Her hand moved and almost smacked him. Yet she didn't know that he was a danger to her. She soon found the strength to sit up and turn. Scooting backwards away from him a couple feet. Staring at him in shock, confusion, and wonder. "Wh-who are you?" She got out in a sweet and angelic voice. Beautiful beyond compare and almost held a slightly musical undertone to it. She studied him. He didn't seem like the bandits. In fact the aura he had seemed kind and made her relax. "I'm sorry. After the encounter with those awful bandits I wasn't sure what to expect." She said. Smiling at him nervously. She wasn't sure whether or not he'd understand. It didn't matter if he did. She had almost smacked him hard. Luckily she had refrained from doing so. The last thing she needed to do was make an enemy.<br/><br/>She sat there panting a bit. Slumping forward just a little before managing to sit back up. "Who are you? Did you save me from those bandits." She turned her head as Junari confirmed this. "Yes. Alright. Thank you for telling me Junari." She said in broken but understandable Draconic. The dragon she had let teach her dragon to be a dragon had taught her basic Draconic. She couldn't hold a complex conversation but she could make simple statements. She looked back at Damien with a shy smile. "Thank you for saving me stranger. I am Princess Aurora. What is your name?" She asked softly. Her voice gentle and sweet. The warmth and kindness from her voice tended to leave people feeling warm and happy when they interacted with her.<br/><br/>She noticed he seemed tired. "Are you alright?" She asked softly. Hoping there was some way she could repay his kindness. She wasn't sure what else to say at the moment so for the moment she didn't. Feeling Junari's head nuzzling her cheek she nuzzled him back. Kissing his snout lightly. Looking back at the male. "Is there anything I can do to repay your kindness?" She asked in a soft voice.
