Gabriel listened to the great eagle as he circled above. Tears of joy welled in his eyes before he could blink them away. His hand reached up slowly and caressed his own rune worked gold that banded his arms.

In his mind he could almost imagine what Michael's arm bands would look like. A great eagle etched into the golden bands. Most likely in flight with its talons outstretched. Old tongue would be circling both above and below the eagle. A prayer of protection first. An oath of service to the creator second. Both worded in a way that the creator would know that the warrior thanked him for the god gift of the lir.

Under his fingers he could feel the wolf etched in his own. He thanked the gods again for Rio.

Next to Gabriel in the shadows Rio leaned against her lir's leg. ::'Riel? Shouldn't we move along if we are to protect our clan? The gods know of your pleasure in recieving me. But now we must trust in them to protect us and ours from whatever lurks out there.::

Gabriel snorted as his hand fell away from his lir band. ::A creature only. Though perhaps one that takes his job too seriously.:: Yellow eyes looked down to blue and the warrior smiled. ::Even still, it is just a creature of the gods, not a god itself.::

Rio returned her lirs smile. ::Then lets lead our small clan onward.::

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nashota walked slowly. Behind her was Kalea on horse back with the young Dante. All around them was strange noises. ::Kalea...:: she sent nervously. ::Stay close, okay.::

Kaleadora nodded silently and edged the horse along the narrow path.

Dante sat up straight. Yellow eyes darting one way and then the other. He reached out mentally for Michael and was relieved to feel his brothers strong mental link.

::Hurry Mike.:: he whispered into his brothers mind. ::I'm scared 'Lea.:: he said quietly.

Khanada shifted to look left. A growl filled the wolf cub's throat. ::'Ware Dante, Kalea... Somethings coming.::

And that was all Nashota and Michael heard before a great large dragon dropped from the sky. Nashota's eyes went round as she watched the huge purple dragon's claws cage Kalea, Dante, Nada, and the horse. Then the monsterous dragon lifted into the sky.

::Gabriel! Michael!:: Nashota screamed intot he mind link. ::It has Kalea and Dante!!::

But, as quickly as the too warriors coudl move neither could stop the dragon as it returned to it's mountain cave.
