The bath was not as peaceful as it would appear to an outsider since she was very much aware of the troubles happening at the beach. Even though she technically was not close, there was a scent of distress and even more pungent fear in the air. Again, she felt the need to inspect whatever had happen throb painfully within her head. Self preservation died away from her mind as she shifted back into her dragon form with relative ease within the waters. Instead of flying, she traveled quickly by foot through the various plants and trees which covered the ear. It did not take long until she was hidden within the outskirts of trees.<br/><br/>Unintentionally, she placed herself directly in the spot the threat had hidden before striking out against her nestmate. His shattered remains was all that lingered. Of course, Safiya had seen bones all throughout her lifetime. Bone of her prey, discarded within the safe haven of grass. Only, this was a being who had been more than a source of food. It was a dragon with personality and potential. Yet, all that was left of him was bones. She stepped closer, careful not to crush any pieces of him underfoot. Safiya could feel and hear the presence of others in her mind although she said nothing back in response. She had absolutely no intention of going anywhere near the fiend. Part of her wanted to run back to the safety of the nest. Safety. The word suddenly did not hold as much weight as it did in the past. She always felt relatively safe close by other dragons since she knew what they were capable of. Yet, the sight of Astrianos in front of her changed that perception.<br/><br/>No place was safe. No place was predictable.<br/><br/>Her conversation with Torix came back to mind as she gently touched the bone with a sharp claw.<em>We need to bury him.</em>The thought came randomly to mind until she heard something make an odd noise. It was only then she looked up to see the giant crab, poised and ready for a fight. The task of putting her nestmate to rest would have wait. Breathing deeply, she pushed back the desire to place herself out of danger's way before moving around the bones to stand behind the others. Her eyes evaluated the situation placed in front of them while taking note of the venom that seemed to pour from the creature's mouth. In a flash of an eye, some of the others began to attack although she could not be sure if it actually harmed the creature or not. Her eyes went down to one of the creatures more delicate points. Its legs. Opening her mouth, she inhaled deeply then released the built up energy within her chest. A bright beam of pure light burst out, heating her cheeks with its intensity. Only time would tell if the attack was successful or not.
