The fighting in here sucks. But I refuse to turn this little universe into work. This is just relatively mindless entertainment. XD;;
Lelouch landed somewhat clumsily, while Euphemia managed a graceful landing that left him jealous. He really did need to practice more.
“I would say this is an unexpected surprise, but I’d be lying.” Guinevere approached the cave’s entrance in her human form, looking nonchalant. “You aren’t welcome here, Lelouch, Euphemia. I forbid you entrance.”
“You’ve broken the law and have forfeited all your rights to stop us,” Euphemia countered. “Where is the human child?”
“What human child? I’m hurt, Euphemia. You can’t throw accusations like that around without proof.”
Lelouch was not about to let stupid hearth laws keep him from Suzaku. “I know you have him in here somewhere! Give him back now, Guinevere, or else - ”
“You’ll challenge me?” Guinevere laughed, mockingly. “You’re barely two decades old. You wouldn’t even be bonded if you weren’t a freak.”
Lelouch growled low in his throat. “Guinevere - “
“Leave, Lelouch. I’m sure your father is looking for you as we speak. You wouldn’t want him be successful, would you?” She sneered. “I hear he’s found some delightful new mind manipulation spells. It might be a change to see an obedient Black Dragon.”
Once upon a time, this had been his greatest fear. He had done everything to keep his father from his thoughts, and to protect Nunnally. Now he didn’t care. He was not going to let Suzaku be eaten.
Suddenly a scream split the air. Before Lelouch could move, Guinevere transformed, shoving him back. Lelouch snapped at her neck before twisting to avoid being pinned. He bellowed a challenge and leaped into the air, barely avoiding Guinevere’s attack aimed at his right wing. He flew higher and higher, wings straining. Guinevere labored after him, managing to get close enough to snap at his tail. He turned and dove, smacking into the larger dragon before sliding past her, turning to gain altitude again.
Normally, challenging someone so much older than he was, especially a female, would be suicide, but he did have one advantage most dragons didn’t have. He was a water dragon, unlike Guinevere, who was an air dragon, or Euphemia, who was aligned with fire. Water was the second rarest of the elements, and one of the most dangerous, particularly in the cold weather -
When he was finally high enough, Lelouch turned to lead Guinevere on a merry chase, all the while gathering the moisture in the atmosphere.
On her wings.
Dragons were made to shed water; that was only natural. But not water that froze instantly. Guinevere continued to chase him, wings laboring as a thick layer of ice formed on her wings. She finally realized what was happening and flipped over, heading down to warmer air, where she could melt the ice off. Lelouch dove, claws fisted. He crashed into her back, sending her tumbling down to the earth. She hit it with a gratifying smack. Lelouch noted that she still breathed with disgust, though she had had manged to mangle her wings quite nicely in her landing. If he was lucky, she would heal badly and never be able to fly again.
Lelouch dismissed the other dragon’s state from his mind and headed back to the cave. He landed just inside the entrance, looking inside. His heart all but stopped when he saw Euphemia standing in Guinevere's hearth, her expression grave. Genbu stood beside her, but Suzaku was -
“I’m sorry, Lelouch.”
The black dragon threw back his head and creened in sorrow, collapsing to the ground.
Suzaku was gone.

The fight was very nice. And I was dying to learn what is a water dragon in your AU. Great idea with ice on teh wings. That maneuver sounds very Lelouch-like and it really made the action scene.
Mind-controlling spells are also interesting, and sound like something Charles would do.
I'm not even mad at you for keeping the suspenseXD

Abilities and strength varies some from dragon to dragon, though all get stronger as they age. Also, Overhill power has some influence on it - if a lot of people believe in them/support them, they become stronger.
This has nothing to do with trying to reconcile Snapshots canon and dragonness, nopeAnother part tomorrow, and I'm working on the part after that!

Date: 2011-05-14 01:40 am (UTC)Your Charles is scary! He's not even here and he's creepy. The fact that he's still hunting Lelouch is also scary.
Ah, Guen. You were... anywhoo on to the next bit!
Suzaku had better... something. And soon. Lelouch isn't great with loss. :(
Thanks so much for thiS! ♥♥♥
