Title: When The Bugle Sounds.....
Description: My first fan-fic, read and reply


Salazaar - December 11, 2006 01:46 AM (GMT)
Hey!!
It ain't completely in my head yet, but here's a little snip-it.........

The pounding of Beau's feet on the track was all Artha could hear. He had tuned everything else out, and heard, saw, felt... nothing but the race. The finish line wasn't far away, but not close enough to make him stress.
He knew victory would be his. The only racer that was even close enough to him to pose a small nag of doubt, was Moordryd Paynn, Decepshun running as fast as she could. The dragon's blank eye's suddenly gleamed, and she shot her white grappling gear and caught a street sign. Decepshun pulled her self up, and landed with a scrape, pounding on right beside Beau. His eye's met her's with blank thoughts, and he inhailed, then exhailed, and picked up speed..... Decepshun's eyes made no reaction to Beau's glance, and she ran on, Moordryd eagerly urging her. Suddnely, Decepshun tripped,....... tumbling over the edge of the track into the nothingness of the highly suspended Dragon City. Beau stopped, and ran to the edge of the track, white grappling gear grabbing the railing by his feet. He looked over the edge, and Decepshun was hanging on for dear life by her white grappling gear. Beau glowed gold, mag-bursted, and pulled her up to safety, Moordryd haging by the grappling cord. Decepshun, now safe on the track in front of Beau, had a blank look on her face, which turned into confusion. {Did he just save me?} she thought. {Did I just save her?} Beau shook his head as if to clear it, and Artha's voice broke his thoughts. "C'mon Boy!! We've gotta race to win!" and with that Beau took off, understanding his current actions not at all......... Decepshun magged Moordryd up and on to her sattle after he had hauled himself up the grappling cord, and onto the track. "Thanks for the help, girl." he snarled, but Decepshun didn't growl, or reply at all to Moordryd's surprise. She seemed utterly lost in her own thoughts. {No one's ever gone out fo their way, mabey costing him the race,to save me before....} She thought, and that thought, no matter how simple, stirred things in her that she'd never felt before..... Beau thundered on, and blasted past the finish line in a blaze of glory. Artha collected his winnings, and they retired to the stables.........

About a half an hour later, as Artha lay sleeping on the floor, leaning against the wall, Beau lay on his stomach starring at the doorway.
{What did I do today? Why?.............} Beau was utterly puzzled.
Suddnely he heard a sound, and Beau lept to his feet. He relaxed slightly as Decepshun came through the doorway, riderless, and.......with a strange new look on her face. A look that Beau had never seen before....
She padded up to him, slowly but determindedly. Beau found himself backing up, to his surprise, and away from Decepshun.... She continued to come towards him,.....her eyes shining with a look that resembled..............new perspective...........and a kind of Longing, that made things in Beau's stomach flip over. Beau jumped as his back thudded against hard wall, trapping him in a corner, with Decepshuns longing eyes starring deep into his. A small nab of fear gnawed at his Gut, and he did the only thing he felt right to do...............wait. Decepshun was in front of him now, her clawed feet gently touching his. Beau didn't think that action was intentional, but by the way she was looking at him, he wasn't doubting much anything at the moment.... Decepshun rubbed her neck under Beau's head, purring with pleasure. Now Beau was nervous.... She looked deep into his eyes, hers shining. Beau blinked. Decepshun then craned her neck over and licked him on the cheeck!!
Beau's eyes bulged, and he blinked multiple times. She smiled at him, a sort of "I never realized how cute you were...." kindda smile, then it turned into a "...........thank you........." smile, and she turned, looked back at him and winked, then she silently padded out of the stall. Beau sat rigid in the corner, then glance over at Artha, who was still sleeping.
Beau grinned, and lay down beside his rider, unusually happy. He looked out the stall doorway, and saw Decepshun walking showingly past,.........with Moordryd on her sattle. Beau growled low in his throat.
{That's why we can't be.........that's why this was a mistake,...you are my enemy.........}but Beau couldn't believe his own thoughts......For somewhere deep inside himself, he felt like He and Decepshun could.....be something. Emotions were telling him that he wanted to be with her, that way she looked at him had changed his perspective almost completely,........almost


Enemy...........enemy..................enemy

Well?
Whaddaya think?
Let me know!!
That's just the begining of all the chaos, B/D, A/K, and B/D/W romances are about to start and maby collide!!

Please add paragraphs! It makes it so much more easier to read. And try not to overuse these ................................ they get rather annoying IMO. Your not at all bad at writing. ;) Remember to spell check. I like how Beau seemed kinda clueless at Decepshun's intentions after the race. Very cute. And I can't wait to see what Wyldfyr's gonna do....keep going!

Salazaar - December 13, 2006 02:51 AM (GMT)
Thanks for you're comments!!
I'll work on it!!

Ok, Chapter 2!!! Bwah ha ha!!!

Later that day, around 2:00, Artha woke with a start. He had had a dream. It had started out as a nightmare, of him fighting Drakkus. Then it turned into a good dream, for Artha had kicked Drakkus's armoured butt, and then Kitt had appeared, ran up to Artha and Kissed him on the cheek. Artha grinned at his own clever subconsious mind. He sighed,......then Artha noticed something strange about his breath........he could see it.........it was like smoke billowing from his open mouth. Artha suddenly realized how cold it was. Unusually cold, especially for Dragon City........ His breath must be condensing in the cold air. "That's strange..." Artha said to himself....

He looked at Beau, laying curled around him. Beau's head was raised, and he was watching something or someone with a strange, glazed look in his yellow, reptilian eyes. Artha followed his Dragon's gaze, and saw that he was looking at Decepshun, laying in an alley across the street. She was wagging her tail in a frisky fasion, and she had light, happy, infatuated eyes. She was starring right at Beau, a big, light-hearted smile on her face.

Artha's shock was overpowering, but he managed to raise one quizical eyebrow. Beau, seeing his rider's glance, realized who he was starring at, how he was starring at her, and what this must've looked like.... Beau looked from Decepshun, to Artha, to Decepshun, to Artha, in a repeaded confused manner. Finally Beau's eyes spoke for him, and they said "W-w-what, you think.........her? you think I like her?!? That's just so.........I mean, I don't ...... I mean her,.....a-and me, that's just so, no I, I don't like her I mean why would you think that, I mean.......I-i-....I have to go now....." and with that, the confused, embarressed dragon stumbled into a differnet room of the stable and out of sight.

Artha's mouth slowly twitched into a smile....."Beau's in lo-ove, Beau's in lo-ove!" He said in a teasing, sing-song manner. Beau grunted in dissatisfaction. "Annoyed, are we?" Artha asked, enjoying himslef emensily. Beau didn't reply, and Artha just laughed.... he rested his head against the wall....he had a small feeling that he was forgetting something. But Artha's thoughts began to wander, and new thoughts of Beau and Decepshun dating crawled into his brain.... He chuckled.......then..."Moordryd,...what will he do?........Is this a trick?.....Is he in on this and is using Decepshun to get Beau?........Is Beau aware of the situation...."

Many unpleasant thoughts blocked out the hilarity of Beau and Decepshun dating, and thoughts of treachery, plotting and traps for Beau took their place..... Artha had a feeling that Beau knew what he was doing, a very strong feeling, that made him relax somewhat....."I'll just have to watch Beau and Decepshun as much as I can....gotta pay attention..." Small seeds of doubt planted themselves in Artha's brain...

"Artha." Artha jumped in surprise at the unexpected voice that seemed to come from nowhere. "Artha, come here." A VIDDscreen appeared a ways away from Artha, by the left wall of the stable. Artha sat himself up, & strolled over to the screen. Mortis appeared, and grinned. "I saw the race today. Good Job, Artha." he said. Artha got his smug-satisfaction look on his face. "Although," Mortis added. "What Beau did was rather surprising.." "I know..." said Artha, as the strange scene replayed it's self in his mind. "What do ya' think it means?" he asked Mortis. Mortis looked puzzled, then he said, "I don't know, but keep a close eye on Beau." "I will." Artha promised. "Don't worry..." He looked confused..

"What's wrong?" Mortis asked "Well, as crazy as this sounds, I never thought Beau would fall in love....I just never saw this coming....and I keep feeling like I forgot something!!" Artha yelled at the end of his sentence. Mortis laughed. "You probably did!" He said with a smile on his face. His hidden eye's under his mask had a had a look of hidden wisdom to them.

Mortis began to reach to turn the VIDDscreen off, then he seemed to just remember something. "Oh, Artha! Did you remember to ask someone to the dance?" "What?!?" Artha was utterly confused. Mortis sighed with annoyance and that made Artha smile.

Mortis turned form the VIDDscreen, waved his hand, and another VIDDscreen came down. It was the advertisment of the Dance. "Hello citizens of Dragon City!! I would like to inform you about the big, upcoming Dragon City Dance that's coming up next friday!! Now's your chance to ask that special someone out, and maby get a little closer with them, or maby just a fun night out with your friends!! Don't forget!! It's next friday, at the Dragon City Dance compound a little past Claw Boulevard. Don't Be Late!! It's at 7:00, and remember, chance for romance or a fun night out with friends!! Have fun!! Signing out..."

Artha hit his forehead with his hand. "How could I forget!?!?!?!" Artha gasped, as if he couldn't beleive his own forgetfulness. Mortis laughed, "I don't know. You were talking about it all last week!" He grinned and turned back to the VIDDscreen with Artha and their conversation on it. The other VIDDscreen went back into the celeing, with a metallic clanking. "What am I gonna do?" Artha cried. "The dance is in a few hours and I haven't asked anyone!! All of the girls are sure to have already been asked......." Artha groaned.

"Well," Mortis said with a sly tone in his vioce. "I was talking to Kitt yesturday, and she said that no one had asked her yet." Mortis said, and waited for Artha's reply...."Kitt? Huh, I always thought she'd be asked really quick......but she's my friend..."

"so?" Mortis asked. "You don't think it would be weird?" Artha cocked his head. "No, I think she would be delighted to go to a dance with you." Artha cosidered it........he did still like Kitt, even though they were friends...."Alright, I'll ask her." Artha said. "Ask who what?" Artha recognized Lance's voice and turned around to face him. His little brother was grinning mischeviously, and Artha sighed. "Nothing....." Artha said in the most unknowing voice he could. Lance frowned and looked at Artha like "There's something you aren't telling me.....and I'm gonna find out what....." "Ok!" Lance said, as if he wasn't on to Artha's scheme, and he walked out of the room.

"Dork..." Artha muttered under his breath. He then realized that Mortis was still on the VIDDscreen. "What?" Artha asked and Mortis just shook his head....Artha grinned and went to go find Kitt.......



That's all I can think of now.........
Well, let me know if anything is messed up or doesn't flow and I'll fix it!
Let me know what ya' think!!

I'll get to work on chapter 3!!

Chapter 3?.....

Burnout Beau - December 13, 2006 01:27 PM (GMT)
Two things to comment:

Firstly: You did reduce the use of "......", which is good ;) . But if there's a pause in the story, I recommend using just three dots will do. And you added paragraphs too compared to your first chapter. That's good, at least you learned from your error. :)

Secondly: Wow! Your story is great. I love it! :wub: Besides that, you also included B/D pairing, my fave pairing of all :rolleyes: . All the more reason for me to like this story. Keep it up, Salazaar! If things goes well, this is going to be one of my fave story. :*:

Salazaar - December 13, 2006 01:49 PM (GMT)
Woo Hoo!!
Chapter 3!!

As Artha walked, he tried to think about how he would approach Kitt and ask her to the dance. Everything he tried didn't seem to comprehend in his brain. His thoughts were a tangled wad of compliments, questions, and greetings. Nothing was flowing. Nothing seemed worthy enough for the up coming situations. Artha sighed with disappiontment. A shiver suddenly slithered down his spine. It seemed colder. Artha hoped it wouldn't be cold when the dance began. Artha was at the exit of his father's stable when he heard a reptilian laugh behind him. He turned and saw Beau with a big smile on his face.

"Ya' wanna come with me, boy?" Artha asked, gesturing to the open gateway. Beau nodded and licked his lips and scratched the ground with his claws. "Maby we can go but some candy bars when we're done." Artha grinned when he saw his dragon's tail twitch, and the big raptiles mouth flooded with Drool. Beau glowed gold and magged Artha onto his saddle. Before Artha could secure his helmet on his head, Beau had taken off down the street at a frighteningly fast pace. "Beau!!" Artha cried, and his dragon meerly grinned. Artha rolled his eyes, thanking the magna draconis that he was mag-locked to Beau's back or he would be a splat on a street sign otherwise!! Beau made an insanley sharp turn, almost stealing Artha's hands from the controls. Beau noticed his rider was falling off, and magged him back into place. They rounded a street corner, and Beau jerked to a stop, Artha almost flying off of the saddle.

Little gold dragons ran around his head. His mind was spining. "Ugh, jeese Beau......" Artha groaned, and Beau laughed out loud. Artha fixed his helmet on hsi head and realized that they were parked right outside the candy store. "Figures..." he said. Beau just chuckled, and eagerly weatched the shining display of treats displayed in the window. "Alright, alright..." Artha said, finally agreeing. "I'll get you candy if you give me 20 minutes to talk to Kitt." he bargained, and Beau cocked his head, and seemed to be considering something, or figuring something out. Then he grinned Knowingly at Artha. (A "I know what's going on...... " kindda grin) "It's not like that!!" Artha yelled deffensivly, and Beau grinned at him again, this time a "Then what is it like?" Kindda grin, and Artha had no reply.

He just scrunched up the side of his mouth in a sort of embarressed frown. Beau licked his lips and made "Kissing" and "Smooching" sounds. "What, me and Kitt? You're crazy!!" Artha exclaimed, and Beau just chuckled. "Arrgh!" Artha rolled his eyes and set off down the street to the public dragon stables. He knew that Kitt probably won the race that ws going on, and she would probably take Wyldfyr there for a drink and a good brushing before she went back to Penn stables.

Artha soon reached the large one story building, painted a dull torquise color. Red, rusted shutters boardered every window, and large red double doors, handsomely decorated with symbols and heiroglyphics stood before him. Artha approached the door and opened it. He jumped as he came face to face with a very agitated looking Moordryd Paynn. "Outta my way stable brat!!" he snarled, shoving past Artha. Artha considered then rejected the idea of yelling some obsinity. Moordryd stormed out the door, and Decepshun followed him. She glanced at Artha,...and Smiled... That was the first time Decepshun had really smiled at him!! Artha just stayed as expressionless as he possibly could. Decepshun walked past him, her eyes shining with happiness. She was happier than Artha had ever seen her.

She and Moordryd rounded a corner and were soon out of sight, so Artha focused his attention on finding Kitt. His stomach began to churn at the thought of her reacting, but he knew he would hate himself if he never knew what she would've said. A few minutes later, he saw her near the back of the stable. Kitt was brushing Wyldfyr, who was gratefully gulping down a lime green energy drink.

Artha grinned and made himself walk foreward. Kitt noticed him, and she smiled, then whent back to brushing Wyldfyr. Wyldfyr heard someone approach, but being unable to see them because her head was so far in the deep drinking trough, so she quickly picked up her head and looked around. Unintensionally she splashed Kitt with the green energy drink. "Ahh!! Wyldfyr!!" Kitt squealed, pulling her hands up to her face in a deffensive position as the greenish rain splattered her face and her front.

The green liquid dripped from Wyldyfr's mouth as she laughed. Artha grinned, and whent to get Kitt a towel. He found one hanging on the wall, and he gave it to her. "Thanks.." Kitt said, looking just little bit embarressed as she wiped her face and her neck with the towel. She dabbed her hair as well, it being soaked by the lime colored liquid.


"Well, that was fun.." Artha said, a wide grin on his face. "Yeah, for you.." Kitt said smiling, and Wyldfyr giggled in her drinking trough.Artha gulped. Time to get to the point... "Kitt....." Artha said, "Can I .....talk....to you for a sec?" Kitt looked up from Brushing Wyldfyr, "Sure." she said. Kitt got the Idea that she was supposed to follow Artha when he walked away from her into the corner of the stable away from straining ears.

"Ok,...this might sound a little wierd....." Artha started, but all of his reheased words dissapated like smoke. Kitt was just silently watching him, waiting for him to continue.
(Which, in Artha's oppinion, didn't make the situation any easier....)

"Um.....would...you like to go.....um" Artha fiddled with the amulet on resting on his chest, trying to remember what to say... "To the......Dragon city dance...with me...." Artha's legs trembled with an unbelieveable suddeness and verosity that he thought he was going to collapse!


"Artha..." Kitt said, looking thoughtful and a strange new look that Artha hadn't ever seen on Kitt's face before. "I would love to......."

*Dreamy sigh*
I'm SO happy!! :wub:
I love my story, and where it's leading!! ;)

Liliwen - December 13, 2006 10:26 PM (GMT)
So much easier to read with paragraphs! ;) I like how your story's going. I also like how Decepshun is more friendly, not just to Beau, but to Artha as well. I wonder what trouble is going to happen on account of this romance... ^_^ How will Wyldfyr react? Can't wait to see what this dance is gonna be like. Write more!

Sweet!!!! Thanks you guys!! I'm glad you like it!! (and the story gets better to!! ;) )


Allrighty "When the Bugle sounds.." Fans, Chapter 4 is opperational!!


There were no words to express, or explain how relieved Artha was, and he felt happiness welling up with in him as Kitt was smiling, looking down, and fiddling with one of the pockets on her racing outfit. Artha searched his thoughts, trying to find something to say, to keep the conversation going.

"I'll um,...We'll meet at my dad's stables around 6:30, that OK with you?" "Uh-hu." Kitt said, and Artha was glad to see her looking a little calmer, and more herself... Artha grinned, and then he turned around and saw Wyldfyr, eye's wide, dumbfounded, staying as still as a corpse. The look on her face seemed to say, "I can't believe you finally got the courage to ask her to a dance...."

Artha smirked, enjoying the look of surprise (maby even a growing look of jealousy, of perhaps having to share Kitt with Artha!! ) that dominated Wyldfyr's expression. Kitt came up Beside Artha, and smiled at her dragon.

Artha half turned his head towards her....a few, "More than friends.." Thoughts crawled into his brain. He felt his "I love you." face coming back up as he looked at Kitt, but he forced it down.

Wyldfyr frowned, for she had seen the "I love you" look partly displayed at her rider, and she showed her teeth, but besides that, she made no comment and whent back to her drink. Artha grinned, and then he started to walk away. On his way out, he turned and waved at Kitt, who was smiling.

She had begun to talk to and brush Wyldfyr again.
"I'll see you around 6:30!" Artha called.
"Okay!" Kitt called back, and she waved.
Artha walked away feeling very light-hearted, happy, (And thankful to the magna draconis that Kitt said yes! )

He soon reached the intersection where he had left Beau, and saw him sleeping by a street sign, still right infront of the candy store. ( :D )
Artha looked smug, then he walked up to Beau's face. He checked to make sure the dragon was asleep. Artha looked satisfied, then he walked into the candy store. He used some of the dracles from the race he had won earlier that morning, and he bought three candy bars, in light blue with light green stripes wrappers.

Artha then waved one of the delicious-looking candy bars in front of Beaus' face. Beau's eyes bolted open, his left leg spazemed slightly, and his face in Artha's hands searching wolfishly for the candy bar. Artha laughed, and he threw the candy bar in the air where Beau magged it and snatched it into his mouth faster than green-trapping gear could shoot!

Artha laughed as his Dragon licked his lips with pleasure, apparently very much enjoying his reward for his patience. Beau grinned, and magged Artha onto his saddle.

"ready to go home, Beau?" he asked, and Beau responded scraping the ground with his claws. "Allright, Beau! Let's Go!!" and with that, the Dragon took off down the street. "Huury up Boy! I gotta get ready for my date with-" Artha cut off, but realized that he had already given Beau something to tease him with.

Beau licked his lips and made "Kissing" and "Smooching" sounds.
Artha covered his ears the whole way home...


Still very happy!!
I'm typing Chapter 5 already!!
Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!!
Woo Hoo!! :lol: :lol:



Liliwen - December 15, 2006 01:48 AM (GMT)
Awesome chapter, hope you finish chapter five really, really soon! :cookie:

Salazaar - December 15, 2006 02:36 AM (GMT)
Thanks!!
Glad you like it!!


Okay, Chapter 5's a long but "worth reading" one!!!


They arrived at the stables arond 6:00, and Beau let loose a big, dragonic yawn. "Ya' tired, huh Beau..." Artha smiled, and Beau noded sleepily. "OK, you can sleep for a while, but I might need a ride to the dance." Artha grinned, and Beau nodded then made his way slowly to his stable room. At the door, Beau turned around, grinned, and made "Kissing" sounds. "Go to bed, Beau!" Artha yelled sternly but kindly.
(Although the Idea of Romance was seeming more and more appealing to him!! )

He went to his room, and searched through his clothes and his belongings to find something to wear. Nothing caught his attention until he reached the back of his closet. Then he found a pitch black out fit. It was one peice, a T-shirt like top and long pants connected. The out fit appeared to be made of spandex, and it looked similar to a racers out fit.

Dark Blue stripes laced around the (Y'know how the shoes are connected to the rest of the out fit.) legs and shoes in random, snake-like patterns. Around the chest, there were shimmering gold and thin white stripes curling in zig-zags that also spread to the sleaves, like an artists work that defied gravity. There was a Black jacket as well, long-sleaved, and waist long.(It whent down to Artha's waist) The sleeves and seams were encircled by gold, white, and dark blue stripes, zig-zags and swirls.

The whole out fit, together and apart, was quite a handsome piece of clothing. The colors complimented themselves excellently, and Would match Artha's black and white hair, blue eyes, and golden amulet perfectly. He didn't even know he owned something like this! He grinned as he thought of Kitt's face when she saw him. Artha whent and got dressed.

Afterward he observed himself, all dressed up, in the mirror resting in his room. Artha grinned with pleasure. He was proud of how he looked, and he then checked the time. 6:10. He had about 20 minutes 'till Kitt arived.

Artha felt strange to admit it, but he was...excited.....happy.....and glad that he had (finally) asked Kitt out. Suddenly he heard a scratching sound. Artha looked out of the window and saw Beau scratching at the door impatiently with his claws.

Artha smirked and whent down to go see what his dragon was up to.
Beau whimpered as soon as Artha opened the door, and he smacked his lips. "Oh...." Artha smiled, and gave Beau one of the left over candy bars.
The dragon scarfed it down, humming with pleasure...

Beau seemed normal now. "What was up, boy? Was candy all you wanted?" Artha asked, and Beau looked like he had just remembered something... "What is it, boy?" Artha asked, cockong his head. Beau looked calmer, as if the unknown object had whent away. Beau looked back at Artha, then his eyes bulged, like he just saw how different Artha looked. Artha grinned with smug satisfaction, enjoying the look of surprise on his usually unsurprised dragon's face.

Artha still had a feeling that something was wrong.
The way Beau had looked at the door when he had asked him what was wrong made Artha's stomach uneasy. He whent inside and checked the clock. 6:20, so only a few more minutes untill Kitt arrived. He decided to sit in the stables, maby talk to Beau until she showed up.

The stable was rather dark, and atleast it was out of the wind so the cold couldn't get in. Beau lay peacefully on the floor, Artha laying against the big reptiles stomach. He looked up at Beau, and asked "How's it goin' with you and Decepshun?" Beau snorted but grinned. "I guess you guys could make a cute couple..." Artha thought,..suddenly he burst out laughing!!

Beau did a questioning grunt. "Oh, sorry boy!" Artha laughed again.
"I just had a vision of what you and Decepshun's kids would look like!!" and Artha burst out laughing again.

Beau shook his head in a "What!?!?!" manner, and his eyes seemed to say "What, we're having kids now!?!!?!?!" but that just made Artha laugh even harder. After a while Beau began to laugh too.
Artha wiped a tear from his eyes "Ah,..that was funny.." he said.
Beau smiled a sleepy smile, and nodded his head in a drowsy manner.

Suddenly Beau's head perked up, like he was listening intently.
A slight pounding of feet was heard, distant at first, but rapidly approaching. "That must be Kitt." Artha stated, grinning happily.

Beau looked smug but it looked like the joy/amusement of teasing Artha had whent away. Beau made a few "Kissing" sounds just for the heck of it.
He was right, for Artha just grinned, a "mabey..." smug kindda grin.

Beau chuckled.
Suddenly outta no where, Lance and Parm appeared around the corner of the stable room where Beau and Artha lay. They looked utterly surprised, at how Artha looked especially, and how they recognised Wyldfyr's foot steps.

"I told you something was up!" Lance gloated and Parm couldn't find any thing to say. Artha had to make them go before Kitt got here, or the whole...situation we revealed. He got up, fast-walked to Parm and Lance and powerfully shoved them around the corner, just as Wyldfyr was heard in the front yard.

"Hey, what the-" ws all Lance could get out and Parm only grunted.
"Ok, time to go, bye!" Artha said, and shoved them into the next room of the stable. He then whipped around, and got the a confused look on his face, for Beau was on his feet, his mouth gaping open, and his tongue hanging out, almost touching the floor.

"Beau, what.." But Artha never finished his sentence, for he then he saw what...or rather who Beau was starring at. Wyldfyr was standing in the door...but a Wyldfyr that Beau nor Artha had ever seen before.

She had Gorgeous strings of Diamonds hanging from her ears, and the small appenages protruding from her chin. She had a dark pink lacey material, studded with diamonds, resting on her forehead like an indians tribal jewel. The same elegant (freakin' gorgeous) material was put hanging slightly off of her ankles, some was Curling around her tail, and some was positioned in delicate swirls around her wrists. Her eyes where shining with pleasure of being the reason for Beau's gawk.

Beau still hadn't moved, and he looked like he was going to fall over! Wyldfyr playfully winked at him, and Beau collapsed to her feet, still as unmoving as a before.

Wyldfyr laughed out loud, and Beau seemed to come to his senses. He bolted upright, stumbled back, and fell on his rump against the wall. He looked at Artha like "What did I just do?" and Artha but down on a burst of laughter. Artha then heard the soft pad of feet hitting the ground and realized that he had forgotten that Kitt had to be there as well. wyldfyr grinned mischeviously at Beau, (Who was still gawking at her ) and then she stepped aside to reveal Kitt. Now it was Artha's turn to gawk!

He tried to keep his mouth shut with every fiber of his being, but even that wasn't enough. His mouth fell open any way. Kitt was the most radiant, graceful, beatiful thing he had ever seen.

Kitt wore lime green and Hot pink swirled earing, and a silver pendant in the shape of a dragon in mid-roar clutching a small hot pink and lime green gem in it's shining claws. Her dress was a beautiful torquiose color.
The sleaves went to her elbows and the bottom was diagonally cut by her left knee to her right ankle. The patterns were hot pink, lime green and a lighter turquiose, spiraling around the sleaves and the bottom of the dress. The cuffs,colar, and bottom were rimmed with a hot pink and lime green frilly, sparkly material that fit perfectly with the rest of the gown. It was an angelic piece of art all on it's own, but when Kitt was added to the mix... (you get the idea...)

Beau had to come up and shut Artha's mouth for him, but it just felll open again. Beau lost patience, and with his tail, he thwacked Artha in the back of his head. Artha lurched forward, and winced as he rubbed the back of his head. Kitt smiled, looking down, as if she was a little nervous about how she looked...Artha looked at her and he slowly smiled.

Beau grinned, like he just had an idea...he then tripped Kitt with his tail. (I know it sounds rather mean, but don't worry, I got it covered...he he he) She spun around and Artha caught her before she fell. He just held her against him, not quite realizing what he was doing yet... He finally choked something out.."You look....amazing Kitt.." He said, and she grinned. "You look amazing yourself..."She said and she blushed slightly.

Artha suddenly realized that he was still holding Kitt and he quickly put her back up on her own 2 feet. He looked down at the ground in an embarressed manner, and Beau laughed quietly. Wyldfyr grinned as well..

Artha looked Kitt up and down. He just coudn't comprehend how (Beautiful ) different she looked...

Artha checked his watch and saw that it was 6:40. Time to go. "Well," Artha said as he mounted Beau. "We should probably get going."
"Uh-hu." Kitt said, and she mounted Wyldfyr with a graceful swing of her leg. Artha grinned at Kitt and she grinned back and they began to walk out the door way. Beau grinned at Wyldfyr, and she smirked back, but with kindness in her eyes. Beau nugded himself close to her, and the two dragons walked closely side by side, eye to eye.

Since the dragons were close togther, the riders were close as well, as they slipped away, silenly into the eerie night.....

Ok, whaddaya think a' that?!?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
Ok, I'm happy, and I hope you guys liked that chapter as much as I did!!

Can't wait the moment when Wyldfyr caught Beau with Decepschun. That's going to be some cat fight. Or maybe dragon fight... :P

Salazaar - December 20, 2006 03:50 AM (GMT)
It's comin' along really well!
I involved Moordryd in the story, got a creepy possibility thing with Word, and I got how the B/D/W thing is gonna work out........he he he.
I'm just trying to get the dance started, and have Something happen and-
Never mind.
I don't wanna give away the story!
I would hate it when I'd be reading and someone would come over and say, "hey, that guy dies in the end." That always ticked me off....

I probably would've had it done by now if I didn't have school this week.
Urgh!! <_< And I'm reading "The adventures of Tom Sawyer" in English class....and..
It's the STUPIDEST BOOK I'VE EVER READ!!!!!!!
It's about a slang-speaking hillbilly boy and that's it!!!
I hate that book with every fiber of my being.
I'm telling you this cuz I think it's the reason why my fan-fic's not done.............. and that's the only connection......................... :unsure:

I hate Tom Sawyer

Sounds like your critical reading skills may be lacking, or your teacher just doesn't know how to make it intresting.

And obviously you haven't read "The Grapes of Wrath" yet. You will beg for the blessed release of Twain's witticisims then.

I can't exactly see Desepshun or Beau together. I don't know i'm one of those where if I watch the show and I see the relationship between characters, then I go with that since that's how they set it up.

What was moordryd doing at kitt's place?

He wasn't at Kitt's place, that was a public dragon stable.
Since Kitt doesn't have a house of her own, she stops there sometimes after she has a race to give Wyldfyr a little break. Then she goes back to Penn stables, and yadda yadda yadda. Moordryd just happened to be there at the public dragon stables cuz I wanted to play on the "Decepshun's happy since she and Beau have a little thing goin' on and she's even nice to Artha" thing to give a little more background stuff in my story....

Which is still isn't done!!!!
I'm so annoyed with my self!!
The dance is so hard!!!
I can't think of what music would play and what music sounds the most romantic cuz I like Artha and Kitt together, but you never hear any, well.......recognizable music in dragon city, so it's not like Nickleback is blasting on the loud speakers as you walk down the streets! It's really hard! *pulls hair out* argh! Oh well...I can do it. ;) It's comin' along really nice, and I think I can make it work.... :plot:

Well, if you're having trouble selecting a lovely song for the dance, how about Elton John's "Can't You Feel The Love Tonight?"? That would be a lovely song. Or how about Ronan Keating's "We've Got Tonight"? Another lovely song. In my opinion, the latter is the best. :wub:

Or, if all else fails, just use Fall Out Boy's "Dance Dance"... :dance:

BTW, hope you can update soon! :)

You should have some DDR songs at least 83

Salazaar - December 28, 2006 10:16 PM (GMT)
Thanks for your help, Guys!
Like your song choices, Burnout!
It's not just the songs though...
The dance moves are hard too! <_<
I can't think of them, let alone describe them!
Although I put in Moordryd's second bit in the story, (I'm switching between Moordryd's and Artha's/Kitt' stories) and I'm back at the dance and stuck in a minor Writer's-Block....
(:mellow: Breathe,....breathe,....breathe,..)
Hmm...
Little snip-it's of Ideas keep comin' but I'm still trying to organize them...

Ready to do something drastic,

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Moordryd rocked on his heels as his father paced angrily back and forth in the chilled Citadel. "I've gotten word that Artha Penn and Kitt Wann are going to the Dragon City dance tonight s-" Word was cut off as Moordryd smothered a laugh. Word turned and glared at his son and Moordryd's defences crumbled. "This is no laughing matter Moordryd!" Word snarled. "This is the perfect opportunity for you to....pick something up for me..."

Moordryd cocked his head and looked confused. "What is the object you wish me to pick up Father?" "That is not important, Moordryd. I'll give you a map to it's location. Bring it to me by the end of tonight..." Word commanded and he handed Moordryd a VIDDscreen. Moordryd memorized the map then turned to Decepshun who was watching blankly from the corner. "Ok Girl, time to make a trip to the wastelands." he said, and Decepshun's look said "Awwww, do we have to?" Moordryd grinned and she did too. Decepshun magged him on and they took off down the many bleak corridors of the Citadel toward the Wastelands.

"Perfect..." Word said to himself, "Moordryd will be occupied, and once he gets the artifact for me and I summon the creature it calls, I'll be unstopable, and my Dragon Human war shall commence... Nothing can stop me now, not even the Dragon of Legend!! HA HA HA HA!!!! (*cough* *cough* No, Just kidding. ;) )

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Wow..." Artha said with a dazed vioce as he and Kitt arived, on their dragons, in front of the huge temple-like building, colored a rich lavender color. Kitt rode up beside him, a big smile on her face. Wyldfyr grinned at the luxserious looking dragon stables attached to the building, then she winked at Beau, and he almost fell over gawking at her.....again. (XD :lol: )

Kitt dismounted and walked Wyldfyr over to the dragon stables, and Artha on Beau soon followed. Artha then dismounted and Beau sighed with relief when he saw the soft purple cusions and blankets. He yawned and more that willingly strolled into the stall. Beau collapsed unto the cusions and pulled the blanket over himself with his teeth, and almost instantly fell asleep. Wyldfyr yawned and lay down in the roomy stall a short distance from Beau. She grinned and the two were side-by-side and soon fast asleep. (every body say "Awwww..." :wub: )

"Awwww, ain't that cute..." Artha cooed and Kitt smiled at him. The two walked out of the stable and up to the large purple double doors of the Dragon-City dance hall. Artha's legs shook, "This is it...." he told himself as Kitt grinned at him and stretched out her hand to open the door. "No going back now.." and Artha was stunned by the flood of colorful lights dazzling on the light purple walls, that blindingly flashed in his eyes. "Wow..." Kitt said in a dazed tone.

The room was beautifuly decorated, purple stone dragons snaking up the pillars that lined the walls. Gorgeous velvet curtains hung just above the windows and from the ceiling. Huge, marble tables with violet table clothes lined with food and drink of all kinds boarderd the front wall around an elegant fountain, a marble dragon in mid-roar, it's spines raised in a graceful piose, as streams of water gushed up around it in shimmering streams and sprinkling patterns.

Multi-colored lights danced on the walls, decour, and racers of all ranks that danced across the dance floor dressed in dazzling formal clothes. As Kitt and Artha looked around, their eyes met eachothers and Artha grinned. He held out his hand for Kitt to take. She looked at his hand, then she looked into his eyes, her own shining... She took his hand in hers and Artha was surprised for sense she was't wearing her racing gloves, he felt how warm and smooth her hands were. The touch of her skin made him feel all fuzzy in side. (hee hee ;) )

Artha grinned, and in a romantic gentlemen like fasion, he led her out onto the dazzling dance floor. They reached the middle and he seemed.......OK, alot at a loss of what to do next. Kitt grinned, and she wrapped her arms slowly around his neck and began to make her body sway. Artha gulped silently and he rested his hands on her waist, then began to move along with the song and the girl he was holding ever so close to himself.... (*dreamy sigh* :wub: )

They stayed together for a few awkward moments, but soon a faster song came on. The two looked around at the other dancers, who were doing some sort of swing dance thing. (Dunno, first dance style that popped into my head) Artha followed their lead. He took Kitt's hand, twirled her, and then dipped her low to the ground. He picked her up, spun her on her heels, then he twirled her close to him.

Kitt cought his gaze and she looked surprised,
(probably at how well he was dancing! :dance: )
but she had caught on to the style of dancing and then she took Artha's hand, gracefully twirled herself, and then Artha dipped her again. He looked at her, the look of trust in her eyes made his stomach flip over.

He picked her up, spun her around, and when she picked up her legs he took her waist, picked her up, and spun her in a graceful turn around his head. He set her down gently, and she twirled to finish the move. Kitt looked at Artha like "I didn't know you could dance like that.." and his eyes replied with "Me neither.."

Kitt laughed and Artha was glad he could touch her sense of Humour in some way..
He dipped her again in a romantic fashion :wub: and he helped her back up.

And so began the dancing of the night away........
*Dreamy sigh* :wub:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The air was reaking with the smell of death as Moordryd & Decepshun reached the wastelands. Decepshun snorted with distaste as the foul smell seemed to hang over her and her rider like a thick, suffocating fog...

"C'mon girlm lets just go and find it.." Moordryd urged the dragon, and reluctantly she walked. The barren landscape seemed anything but inviting and Moordryd felt Decepshun's skin prickle under his own shaking fingers as the feeling of dread settled over them both and seemed ghoulishly determinded to hang on..

After an hour's worth of walking, (which seemed like three days ) the feeling of Dread had gripped Decepshun to where she felt like falling down and dying right where she was and she would have, if not for Moordryd's urging vioce whispering in her ear.

Suddenly Decepshun grunted as if to say "What's that?". She gestured with a nod of her head. Moordryd noticed a looming shape ahead of them, an ancient temple that seemed to radiate evil. Decepshun frowned and showed her teeth. Moordryd grinned teasingly. "Scared are we?" he asked, and Decepshun growled. She then took off toward the temple. The sandy ground puffed up under her feet as she ran. Moordryd grinned with pleasure as he noticed a faint silver glow comming from the temple's innermost chamber. That is where the artifact must be.

"Wow, this is easier than I thought.." Moordryd said as he and Decepshun entered through the temple's crumbling stone gates. Decepshun took three steps into the weathered stones of the temples floor, when she felt the stone under her back left foot reciede into the ground. She turned in surprise, then screeched in horror as the stones around her fell into the inky blackness abyss of a pit. (*gasp* )

She roared and jumped, but the stones she landed on began to cave in horrificly and Decepshun slid forward as the stones in front of her slanted and gave way, falling into the darkness below them. Moordryd screamed, his heart racing. And soon they were falling....falling into the seemingly eternal blackness of the bottomless hole...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Artha grinned as he placed his hands on Kitt's waist once more and the soft thrum of the music pulsed through her body and into his. Kitt smiled. "the music's so pretty..." she said, then sighed as she wrapped her arms around Artha's neck. The soft , soothing atmosphere seemed to settle over the two as they danced like a comfortable romantic mist. Kitt rested her head against Artha's shoulder and his heart skipped a beat. He felt her hair whisping against his neck. He shivered, but not because he was cold.

Kitt picked up her head & looked at him, her greenish eyes shining. Artha found that his mouth was open. He took one more breath before he quickly closed it. He swallowed a mouthful of spit and he met Kitt's gaze. A small smile crept across her face, and (hee hee :wub: ) she dreamily closed her eyes and.......she leaned in, her lips slightly puckered. ( :eep: *gasp*!!)

The world seemed to stop, and Artha found himself leaning in as well. His eyes closed and the universe seemed to dissolve away and all he could see was the inside of his eyelids, all he could feel was Kitt's arms around his neck and her breath on his face... Her lips were about an Inch away from his and then, ( :wub: )

AHHHHH!!!!! I Gotta go to bed!!!! Curse you you stupid curfyu!!!!!! <_< <_<
I'm sorry Guys!! I'll get it with in the week, I promise, cross my heart. :)

all of a sudden the annoying buzz of Artha's wrist VIDDscreen absolutely shattered the romantic atmoshphere. (*Cries* :( ) Artha jumped and Kitt almost shreiked. He looked at her but she kept her eyes down like she just realized what she almost did. She had a small but excited smile on her face, which made Artha feel better as he answered the message.

"Artha, you need to get to the wastelands immediately! I have learned that Word has sent Moordryd after an artifact that by it's self could start another dragon human war!!" At the mention of another dragon human war, Artha grimaced and his fists clenched.

"What's it called?" Artha asjed abd Mortis frowned. "I don't know.." he said and Artha's eyes widened, for Mortis always knew what he was talking about. That he didn't know the artifact's name not only made Artha's stomach uneasy, but it also meant that the artifact must be ancient.

"It's some sort of Horn or Bugle, and I don't know what it calls, Artha, but you must make sure that Word doesn't get his claws on it." "I'll get it Mortis." Artha said and then Mortis hastily added, "Can you ask Kitt if it's alright that she stay there, incase Moordryd runs through or in case you need help, Artha?" Before Artha could answer, Kitt piped up and said "It's fine, I'll stay here."

Always ready to do what's needed, that was one of the many things Artha liked about Kitt. She grinned and straightened her back, now looking like the strong, confident, (*cough* Beautiful *cough*) Kitt Wann that Artha knew so well.

"OK Artha, if everything's settled, then make Beau ready and go." Mortis said sternly, and Artha nodded in the affirmative. The VIDDscreen closed down and Artha turned to Kitt. She looked at him and winked, then her gaze went down again to the floor. With a confidence Artha never knew he had, he walked quickly up and lovingly Kissed Kitt on the cheeck. (*hyper ventalates* :faint: )

She looked up surprised, but that look soon bacame a girly, giddy happiness. Artha grinned and he strolled away from her, a strong, new excited feeling making his insides flutter. (He He! :wub: )

Kitt probed her cheeck with her finger and a happy smile crept across her blushing face. *Squeeee!!!* A pleasurable buzz bolted through Artha's body as he walked energeticly to the dragon stables to get Beau. When he saw the dragon, Artha's jaw fell open. The reptile lay fast asleep in the stall, but instead of alone, he was nestled around Wyldfyr, their tales intertwined and his head resting comfortably in the crook of her neck. Artha grinned and sat down on the oposite side of the stable and waited for his dragon to wake....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm alive?" Moordryd though as he looked around. A pillar had fallen from the temple above, got stuck diagonally between two adjacent walls, and saved Moordryd's life, for it had blocked the rocks and stones that would've crushed him. He looked around and saw Decepshun lieing motionless in a pile of rubble. Moordryd limped over to her and put his hands on her neck. She was breathing. Moordryd rubbed his hands down her neck and back up, trying to stimulate some blood flow. Decepshun's eyes opened and she sighed.

Moordryd sighed with relief, and began to stroke his dragon's head. Decepshun hummed with pleasure, then with an obvious effort, she got up and shook the remaining dust and stones off of herself.

Moordryd mounted the dragon and observed his surroundings from a higher piont. His heart skipped a beat when he saw a tunnel looming in front of him, a faint silver glow illuminating it's slimey walls. Moordryd grinned evily, and urged his wary dragon forward. He would get the artifact and finally be a sucess in his father's eyes....

"And for now," Moordryd thought, "That was enough...."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beau finally snorted awake after a minute or so of Artha playfully tickling the dragon's nose with the fringe in the blanket. Beau yawned, his annoyance an sleepiness showing. "C'mon boy, wake up, give your girlfriend a kiss and let's get going to the Wastelands." At the word "girl friend" Beau looked at Wyldfyr who was looking at him with soft eyes, and he smiled sweetly to her. Beau looked mischevious, though, when he looked back at Artha. "C'mon Beau, we're in a hurry!" Artha said in an agitated tone, and Beau gave him a questioning glance, but got up none the less. He gently covered Wyldfyr back up and rested his head on hers for a moment before getting up and leaving. He magged Artha on and took off down the foggy streets only sending a longing look back at the dragon stables.

Artha looked at the dragon.... Beau seemed almost heart-broken. "You don't wanna leave her do ya' boy?.." Artha asked and Beau groaned weakly in response. "C'mon Boy....You'll see her again....We got a job to do and I need you focused now.." Beau looked up sideways and met his rider's eyes. The dragon seemed to say "....OK." and Beau then straightened his back and grinned. Soon his feet were pounding down the streets of Dragon City, heading for the Wastelands.

The air was cold, almost chilling, and Beau's breathing was strong but fast. Artha looked down at the golden Amulett gleaming on his chest, looking so beautiful in the evening light. "I've got a bad feeling about this, Beau." He said, and the dragon frowned in agreement. The foul smell of death soon permiated the air, and Artha shivered when he saw the endless sands and junk piles of the Wastelands creep into sight... and a faint silver glow shimmering on the Horizon had Artha's full attention.... :poof:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The one tunnel had split into what seemed like an endless maze of twisting tunnels and corridors. After an hour of wandering Moordryd thought he would never find the artifact... He kept telling himself that he would find it, that his father would be proud of him, that he would suceed...

Moordryd groaned after turning a corner andseeing three more tunnels branching off in different directions. Suddenly Decepshun yawned and collapsed to the ground, too tired to carry on. Moordryd moaned. "C'mon girl, we gotta bring the *yawn* artifact back to my father by the end of tonight." Decepshun looked like she was about to protest, but instead she sighed and got up and moved on. The two turned yet another corner and another and the maze just continued on, just as confusing as ever....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Artha and Beau stood at the weather-worn gates of the temple, starring at the huge, gaping hole in the stones that eagerly waited before them. Artha turned to Beau, then he looked at the amulett resting on his chest. Beau grinned and then returnd his full attention at the gaping pit that seemed to be a huge mouth...sucking him in....

Artha took the amulett off of it's chain and with a soft click, he stuck it in it's gauntlett. He felt the gold draconium flowing through his body, the power seeping into his veins. When he opened his eyes, he was in full armour, with the black and gold dragon of legend at his side. ( :D ) Beau magged him on, and lept across the unwelcoming pit to the other side, and to Artha's surprise, the rocks didn't collapse, they held under the 2 ton dragon;s feet. Beau stiffened, his skin prickling...

"What's wrong Beau?" Artha asked the tense dragon. Suddenly he heard it, a light muttering. "That sound's like.......Moordryd Paynn!" Artha frowned and Beau growled. "We're in trouble Beau. If he get's that artifact thing, there's not much we can do about it." When Artha heard a scrathching sound, by instinct he looked down. He almost laughed. Beau was digging through the stone at an alarmingly fast rate. It's like he knew that Moordryd and Decepshun were right below them....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Decepshun perked her head up suddenly. It looked like she was listening intently. She growled. "What is it girl?" Moordryd asked worriedly. Decepshun looked around, then out of nowhere a small speck of stone fell on her nose. She jumped and looked around rapidly, then a roar with the strenghth and intensity of thunder, made her leap all around. *Chuckles* She recognized that roar anywhere, and by Moordryd's stiffening body she guessed he did too. More dust and stone fell on her nose, and she realized that the black and gold dragon of legend was above them, digging through the ceiling. She screeched in alarm, and Moordryd took his amulet in his hand.

"Release the shadow!" he cried and the blackness of the evil draconium engulfed him and flooded his body. His face and body were plated with black draconium armour and Decepshun was mutated into the shadow beast of nightmares. Moordryd dismounted his shadow dragon and continued on foot. He would fight Dragon Booster and his super dragon like he did so many times before... Moordryd's pace quickened when he saw a bright silver light around a corner...

He and Decepshun entered a room, a chamber. It's walls were weathered and worm, the cement that held the stones together was disolving and crumbling. The chamber was dark and stank of centuries of decay, grime, and limestone erosion. Moordryd's heart lept when he saw, in the exact center of the chamber, a stone padastil. On that pedistal, levitating slightly and emmiting a sinister silver glow was a bugle shaped like a coiled dragon, wrapped around it's egg, it's large mouth agape. The instrument looked very similar to the Horn of Libris but the dragon looked far more dangerous and powerful....

Moordryd got off of Decepshun and felt the ominous silver light bathe his face. His eyes watered and burned but he couldn't look away. He was about an inch away from the bugle when an ear-spliting crack shattered the silence of the chamber and the roar of the dragon of legend shook the stones to their cores. Beau jumped through the hole he had dug through the roof and roared again, his fins extended menacingly. Decepshun roared showing her 6 inch shadow dragon fangs.

Dragon of Legend vs Dragon of Shadow, the battle begins again. Dragon Booster stayed steady in his saddle, and he slowly reached for his Jak Stick. Before he felt the cold metal of his weapon through his gloves and onto his fingers, the Shadow dragon magged her rider. Moordryd reached out one-handed and grabbed the bugle. He was back in his saddle in an instant, a flashing disruptor mine ready in free his hand. Beau roared and blasted Decepshun and her rider hard against the rocky wall. Decepshun was about to mag-blast back, but the ground beneath her shuddered. Stones began to fall all around the dragons and humans. A huge boulder slamming into the ground a few inches away from squashing her head was enough to make Decepshun screech. She then turned tail and ran. She jumped past the dragon of legend, out it to the corridor. She then mag-jumped out of the hole that Beau had dug through the roof.




Sorry, I gotta go, but I'll get father tomorrow! :D
read and reply and I'll get back with part 3! :lol:

Ps, I realize that this chapter might've not been as enjoyable for you B/D lovers, but I'm working on it........... My thoughts about how it was gonna work out went away and now I'm a little stuck.
The opposing forces:
I like putting Beau with Decepshun vs I really want Beau and Wyldfyr to end up together!! :faint:
I don't wanna lose you guys's attention cuz I do something different with B/D and B/W. :eep: I like having people like reading my story...
Little confused, but I'm working on it....
