Held on tightly to Hatulan's clawed hand as he flew through the air over small villages . She felt like she was going to fall out of his grip but she remain silent until she could see the Queen palace off in the distant, surrounded by a village that see like micro miniatures. "Just keep heading toward that big structure. Thats where the Queen is."
Off to the right in the distance, but not as far as the Palace, was Exile surrounded by a forest. "That's Exile. Thats where elves live. They use to live throughout the Dream Realm until the Queen banished them to Exile." She talked not realizing the pun that was said. " Just outside the village surrounding the palace is the Shika Youkai Chepi-Isi Village. It the biggest village of all other Shika Youkai villages in other Realms."
She looked back toward Exile and noticed a Faerie Army camp outside its borders. She then noticed a group of faeries from the Aerial Force coming their way.

"And how does the Queen feel about unannounced visitors," Hatulan queried, his deep voice felt, rather than heard, as he cruised through the air, which was fortunate for Yoki, with the rish of wind playing over Hatulan's body.
"Especially a Dragon?"
It was then that he noticed the contingent departiong the camp and heading towards them.
"I guess we'll know soon, but not soon enough to help Rosey."
With that, unable to get more speed from flapping his wings any harder (since Rosey was on his back and unsecured), Hatulan dived, gaining speed as he descended, and pulled up to clear the trees while still en route to the palace.

A group of the Aviation Force saw the dragon flying through the air with mixed emotions. "Is that what I think it is?" One of the guys asked. "Thats...a dragon. Thats something you don't see everyday day in our Mother's realm." The other guy that was there started to scratch his head. "Commander what-.." "We go intercept it." The Commander said, flying up into the air. The two guys followed without saying a word. The Commander saw the dragon dip towards a line of trees, and she quickly got directly in front of him with her men behind her. She held out her arm, "I command you to stop! You have entered the Fae Queens Realm. State your purpose on being here."  |

Hatulan pulled up short, less in adherence to the command, and more to avoid a collision.
His wings beat the air in a slow rhythym, keeping station with the fearie guards.
He brought his massive head to bear on the leader of the troupe, and gauged her with his eyes.
"I was told that the Faerie Queen might be able to help Rosey," he rumbled softly.
"She is badly injured and in desperate need of healing aid."
He turned his head to indicate the bandaged form lying across his back.

"Yes, she is. We must hurry if we want to save her." Yoki said peeking over one of Hatulan's clawed finger. She didn't expect them to realize her presence and she really didn't expect them to recognize Rosey either considering she looked like a burnt mummy.
"Uh, can we get permission to continue to the Queen's palace?"

"What?! Rosey? Thats Rosey?" She couldn't believe that the figured wrapped in bandages was Rosey. She always thought of Rosey as a rival. I wonder what happened to her...
"Permission granted. We'll escort your party to the palace. Follow me." She flew off towards the direction of the palace. One guy flew over the dragon, keeping an eye out for the wounded fae. The other followed behind the dragon, though not too close to get beamed by the massive tail.

Hatulan gratefully accepted the prompt offer of escort and continued on his way to the palace, his wings resuming their urgent pace.
Spying a large balcony, probably reserved for more officious functions, and hardly for draconic visitors, Hatulan aimed for it and made a careful bank to the left, bringing his hind claws down atop the ornately carved wood, and lowering Yoki, before prostrating himself so that Rosey could be removed from his back.
"Quickly!" he ordered.

The Commander wondered where the dragon was going when he made a left at the palace. "We'll have to take her through the main doors. The Queen spends most of her time in the throne room which isn't too far from the main doors. You guys grab the girls and quickly get through the doors. Be careful of Rosey though." She went ahead of the two to alert everyone inside and the Queen of Rosey's arrival.
The guy picking Yoki blushed seeing that she was in the nude while trying to pick her up. He hadn't been near a shika youkai before or even seen one so he wasn't use to seeing someone so comfortable in the nude outside a bath. However he quickly took off with her in his arms with the other guy who had Rosey.

Yoki felt a little better being on solid ground when Hatulan put her down on the balcony, though she knew that there weren't suppose to be there. She nodded in agreement with the Commander about the entrance and allowed herself to be picked up by one the men from the Aviation Force. She noticed his nervousness, but ignored it and looked over to Hatulan.
"You'll have to fly down and transform to your human self to get inside." She quickly said before being quickly carried away.

After all his travels and observations, Hatulan was not one easily impressed by everyday edifices, but the grandeur of the Faerie Palace was enough to take his mind off of Rosey's plight, if just for a moment.
He found the lapse curiously discomforting.
Uncertain of how to proceed, Hatulan remained on the balcony and continued to observe the surroundings.
Of course, he could return to his Mortal guise, enter the palace and inquire about Rosey's state, but Yoki was there.
To Hatulan's rational mind, there was little he could give to Rosey that Yoki was not already doing for her.
Still in his Draconic form, he paced the balcony.

Na'ame saw her people rush into her throne room after she was about to leave it for her after lunch snack. Seeing a body wrapped in bandages, Na'ame had a concerned look on her face.
"What happened? Who is this, and why is there a floating orb of fire floating behind you guys?" She realized it was just a fire spirit and quickly went over to the bandage body. "This must be the spirits master...I want her in my bath right away, Commander, and I want you to send in the dragon." She quickly went out of her throne room to go to her bath, not wanting to wait for anyone to comply to her orders.

Ild had been following Hatulan and Yoki for awhile and didn't care that the fae didn't notice him or not, he knew that he should be following his new master. When the Faerie Queen acknowledge his presence, he floated lowly towards her a little, "Hello there, Queen of the Fae. The name is Ild." He wanted to smile after greeting her, but he was currently in his flame form and she quickly barked out orders before heading out. So he followed the fae that were carrying Rosey out of the throne room.

"This is Rosey ma'am." The Commander said before looking at the fire ball that she missed. She quickly turned her attention back to the Queen to catch her orders. "Yes ma'am. You guys get Rosey where she needs to be!" The men went ahead and carried Rosey to where the Queen ordered for her to be. The Commander then out the way she came in to get Hatulan.
When she got outside, she noticed that he was still on the balcony pacing about. She flew up and watched for a second as his seemingly bulky body moved back and forth, twisting around in an agile way that didn't seem possible as he got to one end of the fragile looking balcony. "The Queen requested to see you. She's in her bath, though I don't see how you can fit through the doorway of her palace."

Hatulan crouched in a combat-ready stance when he heard the voice, but relaxed when he saw the Fae Commander showed no aggression.
"Her Highness requests my presence in her bath?" he queried.
Hatulan removed the bundle from his forelimb, letting the rags of his clothes litter the balcony with the parts of his armor, both damaged and undamaged.
"I am afraid I do not have respectable attire for giving audience to royalty."

Watching the tattered clothes and armor fall to the ground, the Commander was glad that he had a way to form into a human like body, but seeing that the clothes would no longer fit on him the way it did before he got into his dragon form, she had to think of something.
"Gimme your clothes and transform into your mortal disguise." She said as she landed softly on the balcony like a feather and held out her hand for his clothes.

Hatulan grunted and pushed the mess towards her (a short distance to his Draconic form), unable to finely grasp the rags in his talons.
He then turned his back to her and willed himself through the transformation to his Mortal form.
It was always the same form, but not because he lacked imagination; due to his relatively young Draconic age, he was unable to maintain more/better detail for periods of time longer than he could this simpler form.
He reflected on his sempai's age and capability.
One day, I shall have that level of proficiency.

The Commander threw faerie dust on to the clothes and bend down and started scrubbing the clothes together as if she was washing them. When she was through, she first held up the shirt that went under the armor and snapped it in the air to get any residual dust off of it, making sure that none flew toward Hatulan. She threw the shirt over her shoulders before picking up the trousers and doing the same thing. In the end, the clothes looked white and brand new.
She held out Hatulan clothes to hand them back to him. "Here's what you wore basically under your armor. I can mend your armor back together, but it wouldn't be as strong and effective as it was before. I would suggest you ask if the Queen could fix your armor." She picked up the pieces of armor and handed those to him as well.
"Quickly get your clothes on and follow me." The Commander floated up as the wind blew and slowly went down to the entrance into the palace and into the throne room to wait for him.

When Hatulan turned back to the Fae commander, he was in his Mortal guise, and accepted the clothes from her, covering his nakedness as quickly as he could, in order to follow her.
"The armor is a minor matter," he said, padding along barefoot.

The Fae Commander saw him following behind her and waited until he got close to her before she started walking again. "We'll go through these doors here."
The double doors open to a hallway that seemed to be mysteriously illuminated despite having no windows or any lights. The Commander continued walking down the hallway and turned where the hallway had windows along the top of the walls where the sunlight seem to beam down brightly as if the sun was just outside. She stopped at doorway that was open that lead to the baths and waited for Hatulan. She could see that the Fae Queen was in the water with Rosey in her arms and magic swirling around their bodies. Everyone else was outside the water watching in astonishment as the Queen was working the dream magic to heal the wounded fae. Even the ball of fire seemed to be watching, which she narrowed her eyes at it. She had been working with a fire sprite and hope to get the element herself. Rosey had beaten her to it...

When Na'ame walked into the bath, she went straight to the water and started working her magic as she stood on top of the water. "Bring her here." She motioned for them to come to her and held out her hands so she could be placed in her arms. She floated backwards, further over the water before sinking into it. The colors on her body shimmered and was rapidly changing as she continued to concentrate on her magic. The dream magic was making the water change colors as well and she started to glow.
She then could sense different element in the air and realize that it was the dragon that she had sensed when he entered her realm. She continued concentrating though to heal the fae in her arms. When she gathered enough energy and magic, she released it into Rosey. Her body started seize, and she cried out as if she was in pain before her body went limp again.
