"Alrighty, I think he's gone..." a voice said, then a small red Dragon emerged from a bush with an equally small yellow one. "But you can never be too sure with him..." The yellow one spoke. "I know that Quill, but it's not like we can hide forever!" The red one snapped back. "Um, I'm pretty sure we can, Sizzle..." Quill said, sighing as Sizzle gave him a blank stare. "A-Anyway, we should start heading back towards our camp, Jocky could jump us out here at any moment, especially since he's close..." Sizzle nodded, ignoring the fact that Quill had changed the subject. "Alright, then let's go." Sizzle ran down the trail in the forest, Quill following close behind.

However, after not even a minute had passed, a rumbling in the ground emanated from behind the little pair. Both of them knew what it was and immediately began to run faster. Unnervingly enough, the thumps behind them chased closely after them and were clearly getting closer already. Quill could barely glance behind him before a large dark red Dragon pounced on him. He cried out from the sheer weight now upon him and tried jabbing his spiked tail into the Dragon's belly to paralyze him, but to no avail. Quill was pinned.

"Well well well, isn't it nice to see me again? Your friendly forest-hood Dragon, Jocky?" The red Dragon chuckled as Quill squirmed around, having trouble breathing. Sizzle glared at Jocky, although she knew she couldn't do anything, and anything she tried would make things worse. Jocky knew she knew this, and began teasing her. "Aww, what's the matter? Too scared to try and stop me~?" Sizzle growled lowly, but only remained stayed tense. "C'Mon, gimme your best shot." Sizzle didn't take Jocky's bait, which only made him laugh again. "Well, it would seem your friend's time is running short, Sizzle~..." Both glanced down at Quill, who was struggling less and less. He seemed exhausted, and his eyes began to droop. "So come on, at least try to attack me. Otherwise, Quill might not make it..."  Sizzle bared her fangs, but Quill shook his head slowly. "S-Sizzle, d-don-" Jocky pressed a hand down on Quill's neck, shutting him up instantly. Sizzle couldn't hold back anymore and breathed a blazing ball of fire straight at Jocky's head. However, he swiftly ducked and pounced on Sizzle, then grabbed her up by the neck. "You really don't ever learn, don't you..." Sizzle tried wiggling out of his grasp, clawing at his hands, but he held on tight. "Y'Know, this is all your fault. You act like you don't remember, and you might not, but it doesn't change what you did." Jocky frowned before tossing Sizzle into the air, then slamming his tail hard into her, launching her into a nearby tree that nearly splintered on impact. "You really don't ever learn..." Jocky muttered to Sizzle as everything for her went black.

Quill was catching his breath when he saw Sizzle go unconscious. He immediately recoiled in fear, taking a few steps back as Jocky's gaze landed back on him. "As for you, Quill..." He said as he began approaching. "L-Leave me alone..!" Quill began hyperventilating, then suddenly spun around, bolting away from Jocky. Jocky's expression didn't change from the now blank look he had as he took flight after Quill, who soon noticed and began fleeing faster. It didn't matter, though, as Jocky dove and landed in front of Quill, then spun around sending a punch that connected right in the side of Quill's head. Quill crumpled to the ground in a daze, and Jocky hoisted him up onto his back before flying off again. "As I was saying... You're coming with me." Jocky muttered in a low, serious voice, and Quill could only imagine what might happen to him next.
