Flight 18
Blinding Hope Naderenya and Quartz Planet Klierth

It was late at night when Naderenya started to hum softly. Softly waking up her bond, she said "It is time Sekally.."
"Hmm?" With a sleepy head, it took some Time before Sekally fully woke. 
"Oh! Come on then! We have to go!" Still in her pyjamas she ran to the door. 
"Don't you need a coat or something?"
"Is there still time?"
"I'll wait just a bit."
Hurrying back inside, and dressing jumping with one leg in her pants, her two arms in her shirt, she finally got dressed. "I'm ready." Sekally said with a sigh.
"Good."
When they got outside, the participants were already standing there. Naderenya was a brilliant light in the night sky, the moon on a moonless night. She looked at the persons standing below her. There was one bondless dragon, and one smaller, bright coloured dragon that she knew as Gaai. It was a sweet dragon, and her bond was a real gentleman. But Sekally knew that he wasn't meant for Naderenya. Sekally could see that the light he was searching for was standing almost directly next to him. But the silver dragon would find that out sooner or later.
Naderenya flew up high, the other dragons followed. Sekally watched with Naderenya's eyes. At first she was scared. She had lost all sense of the world, and just felt Naderenya. But then she started to like it. 
Naderenya dived, twirled and shot high in the sky. Naderenya loved it that all the attention was on her, but she needed to pick one of the dragons that were right behind her tale.
The first dragon to fall off, was the Blue Jericonialituiath She had liked the dragon, but she didn't want him as a father for her eggs, because he would be too busy with his dragon bond who was ready to fly as well. She bowed quickly for him to make sure that he wouldn't feel bad. The blue dragon bowed back, but Naderenya did not wait to see the gesture. 
She went to the open sea, hoping that some of the dragons would fall off, but she was, after all, a very pretty dragon and nobody wanted to give up so easily. She dived down, feeling the water with her paws. She had flown here a lot with Sekally, and she knew every rock sticking out. Teal Nexus-Marked Black Tii'Alis didn't. He had to change course so quickly that he fell in the water. Only 3 dragons remained. 
But at some point, Silver Stilleth changed his course.
Naderenya could hear the cry of Gaai. The poor little dragoness was scared. One of the flower dragons of Cyan was poking her, and although the little dragon had lots of love for Cyan and her creations, she didn't like being poked or even pushed around by the snake-like dark green creature that insisted on breeding because they would make terrifyingly bright children who would conquer the world. Stilleth saved his little Gaai from the venus Fly trap that everybody knew as Evilness, hissing violently to him, and covering Gaai with his wings. Because he was a large dragon, he could still come back for the flight, but he couldn't leave a terrified Gaai alone. She was more important than the flights. They went back slowly to their rooms, Stilleth making soothing sounds to Gaai, and Gaai already forgetting the horrible dragon with her bond so close by.
The eyes went back to Naderenya and the dragons chasing her. She made a sudden U-turn, and flew to the mountains. The two dragons, a large blood dragon, and a much smaller white dragon were following her. The blood dragon was faster, but that wasn't a real advantage in the mountains on Lantessama Isle. Being smaller, and thus more versatile, might be more adapted to this terrain.
It didn't take long before Blood Bleeth bumped into one of the peeks with his wing. Falling down, he was just able to land on his feet without toppling over. His rider, Darian, ran to his dragon and searched his wing. He guided his dragon to the medicine-bay, just to be sure nothing was wrong with his Bleeth.
Now the last one, the smallest of all the dragons that had chased Naderenya was still following her. She had liked that dragon who was named Quartz Planet Klierth from the start, and was thrilled to see that he was the last. But he fell down suddenly, leaving a confused Naderenya who didn't pay any attention to what was in front of her, searching the skies for the place where Klierth had vanished. 
"Boo.." She heard in front of her. Naderenya looked up in front of her, and was just in time to see the white male hovering before her. She bumped into him and they fell to the ground together. 
Landing gracefully, they found some moss to lay upon...

Sekally woke up the next morning, and found Taylor still lying next to her. Relieved that he had been so gentle, even though he must have felt the urge of his dragon, she kissed him quickly awake.
When he was awake, he looked at her, and she asked him: "Please stay with me.." He pulled her into his arms and whispered: "I'm never letting you go."
At the same time, both dragons woke up as well, and Naderenya asked the very same thing Sekally had asked to the father of her soon to be laid eggs. And he just wrapped his wings around her, nuzzling her neck. He was not going anywhere soon.
