part 4: Bully

Kai had gotten away from his overprotective mother and was running along the path wanting to see what all the village had, carrying his makeshift basket in his maw, during his attempted speenrun of touring, he tripped over a tail. He took a few moments to pick himself off the ground he turned around to see another dragon who seemed around his age but slightly older. "S-sorry." He said nervously. "Watch where you're going pipsqueak." The annoyed red dragon stated. "A-Ap-pologies, I w-will." Kai stated, feeling nervous, he hadn't really had any experience interacting with anyone else besides his parents, so he was very nervous, especially with the big dragon glaring down at him. Kai grabbed his makeshift basket and attempted to run off. " 'Ey! I'm not done with you!" The dragon exclaimed, grabbing him by the tail, causing Kai to yelp. Kai turned around, his body starting to tremble.

"Hm." The dragon hummed as if thinking on some sort of punishment. "Isn't that quite the pretty necklace for a pipsqueak, heh, what's in the basket? Pretty little gems to match your nice little necklace?" He asked, "Why not hand them over, and I might be willing to let you go without any... issues." Kai just shook his head in denial, he refused. "Fine then, I'll just take them!" The dragon stated, reaching for the necklace first, but the second he touched the necklass he was shocked, painfully. He grunted and only seemed angrier, assuming Kai had retaliated, even if it was slightly. "Why you little!" He exclaimed angrily, attempting to swipe at Kai's face only for his claw to be frozen from out of nowhere. "Leave him be!" Came his mothers voice, Kai stood straight, looking at where the voice came from. "Stay out of it lady, just teaching this little pipsqueak a lesson."

Suddenly the red dragon started huffing in pain, Kai's mother reaching them and gently pushing Kai behind her, "If you don't want to lose that claw, I suggest you back off, I don't even need to make that threat, I could go to the chief, I am sure he wouldn't tolerate things like this, but I'd prefer if we could keep your little agression between us, hm?" She asked. "Screw off bitch! This has nothing to do with you." The dragon scolded, then started to charge up his fire element, "Tarkov! You stand down right now young dragon!" A femenine voice yelled, another dragon running over, This dragon was a light blue color, almost matching the color of the ocean when seen from underwater with the sun shining on it. Tarkov's ears perked up and he quickly stopped, and now looked afraid, he was definitely in trouble. Karill took Kai away as Tarkov's mother started scolding him for attacking a defenseless dragon.

"Ma I-" Kai started, but got cut off
"No need to say anything, I'm just glad you're alright. Let's find your dad, we should head off soon, but first, before we leave, it's well past time you learn to fly, you're getting too big to just ride on my back."
