When Kaida was young, she had something bad happen  to her. For a long time she had  stayed in elf  form trying to hide her  true self. But, when she grew older she was adopted by a  nice  couple, so she felt more comfortable being in her  dragon  form. Even though she was a black dragon, and they are feared  greatly she  mostly lived in  peace after her uncle  who had been trying to use her  for her  power was  killed. Now she was an adult dragon, and she was on her  own in the world. She felt very  lonely, like something was missing. She knew about the dragons that  took people from place to place  on backs. So, she  decided  to see if she  could get into the  program. But, it seemed that  they did not take dragons  that  were  able to shift  as that job. Something about people feeling odd  about  riding the back of something that  could be something  like them. She had  traveled, and  a hunter had  caught  her but not to kill her. He  had  caught her  to be a mount  for the  dragon riders. She didn't like being forced into it, but perhaps the  dragon rider  would be  what  she had hoped for all this time. For someone to be  close  to.<br/>She stood  there in the fenced  off  area, waiting  for the person that  would bond  to her. She was  rather  nervous. She feared that because of the fact  she was a black dragon, whoever  took her might  have bad  ideas about her. Well the fact the person who took her  to be  a mount for a dragon rider knew she wasn't something to be  feared,  she was pretty sure her rider  wouldn't feel that  way either.
