Princess Amelia and Rogue were walking to Tue court yard when the ground started to shake.

"Ah!" Amelia shrieked as she was about to fall, but Rogue caught her in time.

"Are you ok?" Rogue asked.

"Yes. Thank you for catching me. I see that Skiadrum left his manners at home today." Amelia said as she stood up.

The two walked to the courtyard and there was a massive dragon, lying down waiting for them.

"It's about time." The Dragon said.

"Skiadrum, did you leave your manners at home today or something?" Amelia asked as she crossed her arms, lifting her eye brow up.

"Well I'm sorry, I can't find my son and his pain of a cat keeps pestering me." Skiadrum explained annoyed.

"I'm right here father." Rogue said.

"Oh, I didn't know you was with the PRINCESS!?!?!?" Skiadrum started out calmly but when he said the word 'Princess', he shouted completely shocked.

Rogue gave his dad a glare and Skiadrum soon returned it.

They kept giving each others glares and then Amelia sighed.

"Both of you, stop the glares at once or I'll turn into a dragon and throw you both in a cave somewhere." Amelia said annoyed.

They both thought about it and shivered.

Skiadrum shivered at the thought of seeing her transform and Rogue shivered at thinking about her transformation.

"What happened this time?" Skiadrum asked.

They explained everything, even the plan and Skiadrum sighed.

"And this is why I tell you to be home before dark. You never know what's going to happen. Yeah sure, you're a shadow dragon slayer but at the same time you should be aware of what's around you. No matter what, never let your guard down." Skiadrum said.

"Anymore of the lecture?" Amelia asking sighing.

"Plenty more." Skiadrum said.

"Do i need to summon Grandeeney?" Amelia asked.

"No!" Skiadrum exclaimed and then he cleared his throat. "I will get Frosch to get your things packed and then I'll drop him off here. See you in a week." Skiadrum said as he stood up, put his wings out and flew off.

"Well, he surely never changed." Amelia said.

"So he's always been like that?" Rogue asked.

"Yes." Amelia said. "Oh, that reminds me..." Amelia started to say as she started to walk off. "I should get Igneel and Natsu to guard the castle with Atlas and I should get Matalicana (Sorry if I spelt it wrong I do apologize:-(), Gajeel, Grandeeney and Wendy to check around the streets for some suspicious activity." Amelia said and then she turned to Rogue. "Are you coming?" She asked

Rogue nodded and they both walked into the castle. Rogue noticed a worry look on Amelia's face while they walked.
"Could it be a dark dragon? Could it be... Him?" Amelia thought to herself.
