Post by Ryker Tremaine on Jun 6, 2015 3:12:31 GMT
Ryker breathed out a sigh of relief once he and Selethina were in the air, leaving headquarters. Excalibur was his world and all his goals served to further the cause, but at the same time he didn't believe that he'd ever get used to being around so many people. If given the choice, he would always choose to go off with Selethina than to stay around humans. Sure, he liked them well enough, but after spending so many years on his own he always felt smothered while in a crowd.
He grinned at the feeling of air rushing past his face and looked down at the world below. Ten years ago, he never would have pictured himself where he is now, working with Excalibur and bonded with his very own dragon. At that time he lived day to day, hiding from dragons and humans alike, fending for himself and carrying for no one. How things have changed.
"We could practice there," Selethina suggested, interrupting his reverie when Lake Mortez came into view.
Ryker looked at it skeptically. It's common knowledge that members of Excalibur frequently come to this lake for their own pleasure and for practices of their own, but at the same time, it was the perfect spot. "Yeah, I think that would work well," he answered eventually, wishing he could think of somewhere else that would suit his needs, but knowing they'd have to go far away to do that.
When Selethina landed a few minutes later, the two of them immediately began their ice training. Today's lesson was on how to use ice magic as a shield against attacks.

Selethina sighed inwardly at the interruption. She knew that it was likely they would see others at the lake today, but she had hoped to be left alone with Ryker for a while to train. Often they were far too busy with their duties so this kind of an opportunity to really train was one that she wanted to take advantage of. However, she also knew it was important to interact with other members of Excalibur when the opportunity arose so she took it upon herself to do so on order to allow Ryker to continue.
She turned to Ryker, pleased to see that he was still focusing on his task- holding his shield strong and firm against all the icicles she's hurled against it. She was proud of him for holding it for so long. "Go ahead and continue with your practice. I haven't spoken with 'Jag for a while, so I'll take this one."
"Fine by me," Ryker grumbled back inside her mind. She smiled, pleased that she could sense the struggle in him. This training session was going quite well. In the back of her mind, she continued to form icicles out of the air and send them at him so he could continue while she talked with her friend.
"Greetings my dear friend!" She responded as she moved closer to him. "Ryker and I are simply working on his shields today. How about yourself?"
She smiled softly to herself when she heard Ryker grunt behind her. He has almost reached his limit with holding his shield, but she knew that he was too proud to confess that to her.

Selethina smiled, very much liking the idea of returning to the sky on her own for a short while. Without Ryker, that was. As much as she cared for him, she also enjoyed privacy and time alone with others of her kind, so she nodded to 'Jag as she made her decision. "Ryker, I think we've done enough training for the moment. You should rest awhile while I go up with 'Jag."
Selethina laughed quietly when Ryker immediately dropped the shield and grinned at her, obviously proud of himself for his progress with his shield today. "Alright, just be careful. I don't like how quiet things have been lately."
"I'll be careful. Well be fine." she promised before turning back to 'Jag. "I think Ryker is done with his training for today, but I would definitely love to take you up on that offer. Besides, these things should be spoken of in more private settings."
Selethina took off, waiting until she was in the air to answer 'Jag's questions. "To be entirely honest I do not have much to tell you, but I don't think you're paranoid. I have sensed the things you speak of, as well as shifts in the atmosphere and the tension everywhere is rising at an alarming rate, but I have not Seen anything yet. I believe something is coming and that things are about to change drastically, but I cannot figure out how. I hate it when my visions take so long to come," she mumbled bitterly. Selethina loved using her visions to assist Excalibur but at this moment she felt useless. She knew a vision would be coming soon, it seemed to be on the edge of her Sight constantly, but she didn't know how to make it come. She would simply have to wait, as usual.
