*Thing for just a second’s worth...*

Large, iridescent bronze wings ripped the air from between, and lead the pair into the Flight Air. Verealth was a large bronze; nearly queen-sized, one would say. His hide glimmered wonderfully, with the appearance that he was made of solid pearl, though it was hidden beneath painted layers of rust and gold. The many-faceted eyes of the beauty glimmered with lust and affection, and they were set on one thing and one thing only; the glowing hide of his sovereign, his Queen.

His rider sat semi-calmly on the large back. N’kat was a short rider, barely over five feet. His violent red hair fell like silk down past his shoulders in the front, but was cut in a unique fashion where it went steadily upward, until the locks that caressed the back of his neck were just long enough to brush mid-neck. Black natural highlights tainted the blood-red hair, in a very strange natural fashion. His creamy-light skin and his eyes complimented this look. The color of his eyes could not be defined by a mere color, because they weren’t one color. Around the edges, they were dark, almost black. However, as they journeyed inward, they became a soft brown that was more of a red than brown, and finally an amber-gold in the center. Right now, these strange eyes were gazing about in a confused manner, until the man realized where he was being taken.

“Verealth?” He shouted, but the winds drowned out his physical voice. Time to try a new approach. Verealth?

Yes, rider-mine?

What’s going on? Why are we here?

Shrineth is in flight.

That was enough. Even a newly transferred rider such as N’kat knew who Shrineth was. However, before he could reply, the bronze gave a mighty dive, and they plummeted to the ground.

A few feet from the ground, the bronze pulled out, and landed next to the other males gathered. N’kat slid down the bronze foreleg, and looked around. Bronzes and browns were gathering all around to watch the amazing form of the golden sovereign rise and fall in a lovely rage. N’kat felt small compared to the forms of the other riders, and was surprised to notice the appearance of several seemingly reluctant riders. One of them he recognized as brownrider R’ko of Rikkith, whom he happened to know was weyrmate to greenrider Valor.

*Of how my stories ending...*

V? Why is R’ko here?

Retired gold Lilith declared that all bronzes and browns must enter the flight. We don’t have as many as most queens would find appropriate.

Oh. Shards, R’ko must feel horrible

He and Rikkith were in a fight with Valor. They never made up.

Well, let’s hope they get the chance.

If all goes how I wish, they will.

N’kat had to smile at that. Verealth had never before shown signs of interest in females, so his sudden obsession with Shrineth was somewhat amusing.

Verealth, however, was very serious. The form of the glowing sovereign was all he could bear to watch, all he could ever want to watch, all that mattered. Suddenly, there was something that meant as much to him as N’kat did, and it was very odd. However, this did not disturb the bronze. In fact, the feeling was so natural that he was surprised he hadn’t had it all along! Perhaps he did, and just hadn’t recognized it before now? Yes, that had to be it...

N’kat, shaking slightly as the dragon’s lust started to take effect, did what he always did; analyzed the situation carefully. He was out in the Flight Air, awaiting the flight of the Senior Queen of New Isle Weyr. His dragon, who normally didn’t throw surprises like this at him, was now obsessed over the glowing gold before him. There was a slight chance that Verealth would indeed catch the glittering gold, and that he, N’kat, could become weyrmate to Wessae and Weyrleader of New Isle Weyr. And, if not, he’d at least have been a participant in the gold’s flight.

So, was there a logical action that N’kat should perform? Probably not. The only thing the thirty-turn-old bronzerider could do was wait and see what happened.

However, at that moment, a strong mental force nearly knocked N’kat to his knees. As a strong lust filled him, N’kat realize that the feeling belonged to Verealth. Taking up just about all his mental energy, the rider pushed the being away, willed himself to stay himself, and not become enwrapped in Verealth’s mind. He could do this... he could do this...

Giving a long sigh, the bronze crouched in position. He could catch the shimmering beauty before him. He could, or he could die trying. He made a silent vow right then to follow her to the end of the flight, just as soon as he could leave the grounds...
