"I'm not in a cheetah form right now," I pointed out. "I'm not as fast as you are." I didn't feel like shifting into anything right then. I was content to appear human.

"Yeah, yeah. Sorry. Nervous legs. They really wanted to run away as fast as they could." I said, slowing down more so we could walk comfortable side by side. I thought of something random then, a completely different change of topics because I didn't enjoy the one we were discussing. "Can you have wings while you still look human?" I asked.

"Never tried. Just a sec." I tried to think what kind of wings would look the least weird on my human form. I gave up. From my back sprouted a pair of dark green dragon wings. "how's this?"

"Cool. Good for quick get aways since you can't run very fast." I said. The wings were huge compared to his human form, spreading out twice his heigth on each side. It must be nice to be able to fly, then you could get away from everything, almost. Unless the enemy flew too, but not many actually could. Most were ground based.

"They're also good for being seen. One thing I can't do is turn invisible. For that small fraction of the human population that does look up, I am much too big to be a bird or a bat."

"That's why you go high." I said, pointing up. "I'msure you can reach above the cloud line. Once there, no one would be able to see you." I said, quinting at the night sky. "And another thing, humans are oblivious. If they don't want to see you, like most do, or think you are unbelievable, their minds just brush it off as they were seeing things." I said, finally looking down. "A lot of humans are blind. How come they haven't noticed werewolves, fairy, vampires, and all other magical things by now. They don't want to see them." I pointed out.

"Okay, fine. But what about you?" I didn't bother to tell her that, of those who would believe in dragons, I'm worth my weight in gold for all the used they could get of my parts. Every dictator in the world would pay through the nose to get a dragon heart to eat, so that they could live forever.

"What about me what?" I asked. I looked up at him. His clothing was filthy, yet still he sent out a wave of authority, as if he were royalty. It annoyed me a little, but the other reaction was much better hidden.

"You're just going to walk through a whole bunch of humans? Even the most oblivious can tell that there is something odd about you. They aren't as clueless as they seem."

"I've been hunting this kind for years. I know exactly how to spot them, which means I also know the best way to hide as one. It may be obvious for you, but that's because you're a dragon and you have the sight that humans don't. Trust me, I can hide better than a needle in a hay stack." I announced. "Thay are clueless. When they don't want to see something, they don't see it. Why would you want to see something you don't even know about?" I questioned as we emerged from the thicker part of the woods towards the city limits. I slowed down as we got closer and closer to civilization.

"Because I'd want to know that it exists. At the risk of sounding cliche, I know that there are some people out there who can see through the veil of mystery we cloak ourselves in. They want this part to exist and are thrilled that it does, and only mildly afraid."

"But those people are slim by far. Don't worry, I'll be fine." I said, stopping to turn towards him. "I need to get out of the city." I told him. I would take care of the few last minute things before heading out in about two hours. Any longer and I would risk having the hunters catch up with me for questioning/torturing.

I sighed and spreading my wings, I jumped and caught the air. "Where shall I meet up with you?" I called down to her.

"Meet up?" I asked. "But we aren't." I said confused. My head tilted to the side as I looked up at him. The wings looked unnaturally big for the normal sized body. "Drake, I'm not going to get you stuck in this anymore than you already are." I said, starting to walk of then. "Bye." I called over my shoulder.

"Hold it a second! You didn't get me into this. I got me into this! I choose when I want to back off. If we don't meet up somewhere, the hunters will be the least of your problems." I could feel unspeakable anger welling up inside of me. My limbs felt hot and heavy and I could only just stare at her.
