Welcome to Gaia! ::

Unless ye were tired... and iffin ye were young, tired dragon, with a full belly and faced with a delightful sunny warming spot... don't think ye'd argue. At least Luna is not going to, she is quite happy to take a nap on what appears to be a great napping rock. Kero on the other hand....

And so this is how Lyssan finds them, sometime later, all three stretched out on a massive slab of basalt, soaking in the heat. Laughing she joins them, allowing the sun warmed heat to soak into her fur and limbs.

Cracking an eye, Lyssan watches as he swims off, wondering what he is up to. Slipping from the rock, she follows him at a distance, in the form of a small water dragon, one which blends into it's surroundings to avoid detection.

"Kero.... out of the water... now... danger..." sends Lyssan in alarm, expanding her body to it's full size and snatching at the alligator simultaneously, unfortunately missing it by inches.

Lyssan sighs as she finally manages to latch onto the reptiles tail, and takes to the air, trailing a tiny furious dragonling.

"Wet me gets him..." demands Kero flying in circles about her head.

Lyssan sends him a mental swat and lands on the beach, holding the gator down and snapping it's spine cleanly in a single bite. She looks at Kero and growls. "Right and have him snatch ye up in a single bite... lot good that would have done anyone.... "

"Who ye?" demands the tiny golden dragon landing on the sand by the now still body.

Lyssan chuckles wickedly. "Wouldn't ye like to know?" she retorts with a mischievous grin.

Of course all this commotion awakens the others who run or fly to join them.

Lyssan nudges the gator and laughs rudely. "Have ye ever seen one of these in action? Ever witness how fast they can whip about? Their jaws lock onto ye and they twist and turn.... they don't so much as bite a chunk from ye as they rip it out... literally, they move that hard and fast. I had to get ye away from it... and fast... and my mouth was kind of full.... hard to talk to ye that way. Pretty good eating though. Care for a bite?"

She pauses in her feast and shakes her head. "I had his tail only, nothing else, and I've seen these things writhe like snakes. Not as limber as a snake true, but far more agile than one might thing... now hush... Hello, Luna, how are you today?" she asks offering to share her feast. Yes, it isn't cooked but these are all carnivores, remember that. Fresh kills are quite good.

Luna looks up at her and thinks real hard. Something about that voice is awfully familiar. Suddenly a light goes on in her head.

"I fiwne, Mama." she replies, inching forward just in case she's wrong.

Lyssan chuckles and swallows a chunk, skin, bones and meat whole. "And have you all been behaving yourselves?"
