Ryker couldn't hold back his amusement and he laughed. "Well I guess I owe you Leonora. That battle of ours should be taking place sometime in the near future and I would hate to be unable to help because of some poisonous plant. Thank you." He repeated, determined to help in any way he could. He sat up and then moved quickly to his feet, offering her a hand to help her up. "Don't worry about it. Not a problem at all," he told her with another smile, though at the same time a pounding began in his head. What was doing on? Maybe he stood up too fast. "Hey, Leonora, did I hit my head on my way down or something?" he asked, though he thought he already knew the answer. He leaned back against a nearby tree. All of a sudden his ears were ringing, his stomach throbbing and he could hardly breathe. He'd never felt anything like it. What was happening to him? LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

The battle. What a serious topic to bring up. Still, she didn't frown into the thought. She simply chuckled herself, pushing to sit up and taking his offered hand to come to standing. She didn't release his hand as concern suddenly struck the air. Had he hit his head? She looked around, not seeing anything that he could have done it to. She released his hand as he back into the tree, leaning against it. "Ryker? Hey, hey," she stepped toward him, closing the distance between them to place a hand on his forehead, her other hand on his arm to steady him. "I don't think you hit your head. You feel warm. Ryker, look in my eyes and tell me exactly what your feeling," she couldn't diagnose without an idea of what was happening inside of him. Her concern was obvious as she assessed him. Ryker Tremaine

Ryker closed his eyes when the world around him started spinning. Something was wrong. Very wrong and he didn't think it had anything to do with his head. "Selethina," he called out in his mind nervously. When he reached out to her, he sensed the same thing. That meant this could only be one thing. A vision. A very strong vision, stronger than anything either of them had ever felt before. Ryker reached out the hand Leonora wasn't touching and put it on her shoulder. He fought to open his eyes and opened his mouth to tell her what he just realized: a vision was doing this to him, but he couldn't. All of a sudden, he felt like he'd been sucker punched in the stomach. He gasped desperately, but his lungs seemed frozen and he couldn't inhale at all. He tried to speak, but he couldn't exhale either. The world around him was spinning and he saw three faces in front of him, though he knew there was only one. His knees buckled underneath him and he collapsed as the world around him went dark. His last thought was "I hope I don't hurt Leonora."LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

Leonora knew that Ryker and his dragon had visions of the future, that could be what was going on. Still, she had heard of dragons that could get in your head and control your actions. So, for precautions sake, she hurriedly disarmed him, tossing his sword aside as well as her own, making sure that they were a few feet away from them just in case. As he placed a hand on her shoulder, she looked at him, the fear for him clear in her eyes. Suddenly he gasped, seeming to choke on air. Leo knew that the best thing to do in this situation would be to let the thing run it's course, but she felt entirely uncomfortable with that idea. Seeing him in pain was... well, she was starting to tear up. She stayed by him though as he collapsed, holding him as much as possible to make sure he didn't hit his head on anything. Once one the ground, she laid his head gently in her lap. He had passed out. She checked his pulse and his airway. He was still breathing, heart still beating. Those were good signs. "Ryker," she started, her voice was soft as she moved him onto the ground. She left him, very briefly, to fetch some water from a nearby stream to fill her bottle. She poured some on a cloth as gently touched it to her forehead. "Please wake up. Ryker, get up," she said, her voice some yet stern. Ryker Tremaine

Ryker could hear Leonora's voice. He knew he was actually with her in the forest looking for some plant, but at the same time he wasn't. He opened his eyes and wasn't surprised by his surroundings. Another vision. His heart was still racing, as was his pulse and he could still feel the remnants of the pain his body was still experiencing but at the moment he was stuck in his mind. He might as well focus on the vision until it released him. His surroundings were familiar; he recognized them from his first vision, but at the same time, he saw more details now. As he looked around himself it was still pitch black, clearly night time, but he could also see the reflection of the moon a short distance away which meant ... they must be somewhere near Lake Mortez. It was the largest lake around and he couldn't imagine where else he could be. He felt Selethina nearby but didn't reach out to her. If she was having the same vision as he was, he didn't want to distract her.
As his eyes adjusted to the night time, Ryker noticed that he was among trees. He wasn't surrounded by a ton of them, but there were trees scattered around. That meant he was on the edge of the forest, not in the middle of it. His surroundings were eerily quiet and he could sense that this was the calm before the battle. He looked around himself, not surprised when he saw plenty of his friends. Apparently plenty of them had already made their decision to join the battle.
There was a furious roar and dragon-fire lit the air. Almost instantly, torches were lit and the area was flooded with light as the battle commenced. He saw the largest dragon he'd ever seen in his life, larger even than Ryagin and realized that Ryluth, the Dragon Queen herself, was taking part in this fight. Dragons fought dragons, humans fought dragons and Ryker was lost in the midst of battle. Occasionally he would see someone he knew. He caught a glimpse of Soren- the Grand Prior of the Knights- and Morgana as well, he saw Anaya and Chloe and several of his friends from Excalibur, along with their dragon companions. Queen Ryluth's dragons fought furiously. He couldn't fathom what initiated this battle, it seemed so ... personal. As he caught a momentary break from the war surrounding him, Ryker was surprised to see just how many humans and dragons were involved in this battle. Too many to count or recognize and all were fighting desperately for their lives.
Suddenly a dragon landed right in front of him and Ryker was fighting for his life. He glanced behind him when he heard someone approaching, but it was a human, so he turned his attention back to the dragon in front of him, startled when he realized that the dragon seemed to have a saddle on it. Why would a dragon from Excalibur be attacking him? And why didn't he recognize this dragon?
"Ah, if it isn't Ryker Tremaine, fighter extraordinaire," A familiar, taunting voice came from behind him. Ryker wanted to turn and see who it was, but he couldn't. The dragon was still attacking him. "Looks like I've finally caught you alone. Take care of him," the cruel voice added casually. The dragon's attack increased in speed and efficiency and Ryker began to lose ground. Finally he made a mistake and shouted out when he felt the dragon's tail knock him to the ground, piercing his armor as it did so.
Ryker heard the laughter increase and squinted through the pain as the man stood over him, gazing down at him. "I would kill you now, but I want you to suffer a slow death. Have fun dying on your own, Tremaine." The man turned and walked away without a second glance. Ryker gasped and cried out as the pain racked through him again. He had to see where he was injured exactly and find some way to treat himself, but he couldn't. Black surrounded him and he passed out.His body was aching in pain. Ryker wanted to throw up or pass out, the agony was so bad. He couldn't bear it. His heart was pounding, he could feel the sweat on his brow and he knew that he was dying, but something was strange at the same time. He felt something cool touching his forehead, something soft under his head and wondered if they'd taken him to a doctor, but how did anyone find him in that darkness. Then he realized that it was lighter outside than he realized and he heard a voice repeating his name over and over, telling him to wake up. He forced his eyes open just enough to know that he was right about who was with him. "Leonora," he croaked before he passed out once more. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

Leonora knew the best thing to do was to wait it out, and she did. Still, it didn't stop the rumbling in her stomach and the worry in her head and heart. She leaned over him, placing one hand on his chest and one on the ground beside them as she watched him, waiting... Suddenly she heard her name, and her smile returned briefly until he passed out. She sighed, lowering her head to shake it in worry before getting back to work. She would have to wait it out til he woke up enough to move and then get him out of the forest. She was sure he didn't have a concussion otherwise she wouldn't have let him pass out. Still, what vision could have affected him so badly? And why did he have to be in such bad shape every time they happened? There had to be a way she could treat this. A way that having visions wouldn't be so painful for him... Ryker Tremaine

Ryker woke up once more, relieved when he saw Leonora in front of him. The fact that she was there meant that he was back in the real world, not still in his vision. He shuddered as he remembered his vision, the one he died in. He still couldn't believe that was going to happen, but he couldn't figure out a way to stop it from happening either. A part of him wanted to talk about it, but Ryker wouldn't. He couldn't place that burden on anyone else, he refused to. He would just keep it to himself and hopefully something would stop it from actually happening. He wouldn't even tell Selethina. No need to worry her, and he knew that she would worry if she did know. He looked up at Leonora, embarrassed by how weak he felt at the moment. He wasn't going to be able to get back to camp without help. "I'm sorry, but could you help me make it back to camp? I don't think I can stand on my own right now," his voice croaked. He was sure she would help him but he wished he could take care of himself on his own. Oh well. Nothing else he could do about it now. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

She reached a hand up to place it on his cheek as he opened his eyes again, nodding as he asked her to take him back to camp. "Okay, just put your arm around my shoulders," she instructed. As soon as she was able, she lifted him to standing and began moving toward the camp. It took some work, and a bit of bravery, but they were able to make it back safely. Once there, Leonora dropped him off at the medical tent, promising she'd be back to care for him later. But for now, she was sure he needed to process what he had seen and she would ask him bout it later... ( Ryker Tremaine, i think we should wrap this one up and do another one! probably in the battle! or another one before the battle?)
