Ok, here I am, posting. This is going to be very rushed because I really just want to get a new part out. 

Lexi ~~

The danger has passed, but we're all still shaking. Daniel had been cuffed and was being hauled onto a dragon's back by Mr. Marren, when suddenly Blue came scurrying over in a panicked rush. 

"I've decided to join you," He says, the words tumbling out of his mouth like a tsunami. "I'm sorry I didn't before - but we need to work. Fast. I think I know something." We all look at him expectantly, not knowing how to respond. He holds up the arrow that he had pulled out of his dragon, Cricket's, wing. "Look at the tip," he says, pointing to the dark black tip of the arrow with extra caution to not touch it. "Don't you guys recognize it? It's midnight stone." There is a collective gasp throughout the group.

No one really payed attention during the stones of Emarya unit in school, but now that lesson could be coming in handy. I racked my brain to remember what I knew about Midnight Stone. 

"It has a poisonous tip," I say, remembering a question from the test. Blue sits back, looking relieved that someone else has taken up the conversation. "The poison spreads fast. There's not a lot of time available between first contact and healing."

"There's an anidote," Jasmine chimes in. "But I can't remember what it is." We sit there for a moment, eyes shut tight, trying to remember.

"Crushed lavender!" I suddenly shout. It's coming back. Apply crushed lavender to the arrow's point of entry, and the poison should be removed from the body. Jaz, Blue, and I jump up and run toward the healers, eager to tell them what we know.

Sorry this is short, it's 10:00 and I want to go to sleep, but I had to get this out. Hope you guys enjoyed and can use this to keep the plot moving. 

Ok, the all caps and 4 exclamation marks in my name may have been a little extra, but remember how we all vowed to keep this RP going? I think there are only four of us left still posting, so we need to work together! Let's keep this alive!

Blue~

Mr. Marren turns the dark arrow over and over in his hands. "You're correct, this is Midnight Stone. Nice job, Lexi." But he had a confused look on his face.

Alisa, one of the healers, speaks up. "I'm surprised...Midnight Stone is rare, you can only find it in the mountains...but we don't have time for that! Guys, look for lavender in your bags."

Cricket groans, and I hug her tightly. I can't bear to think of the poison that must be running through her right now. Jasmine and Lexi are doing the same. I take deep breaths and try to think of going back to where there are no more people, no more worrying about the Lunar-Sun plan, just me and Cricket...

"I think we have a problem," I hear Alisa say, "Our lavender is gone. I don't know why or how, but I do know that there's wild lavender around here, and hopefully that'll work, since it would take too long to go back to town. Our dragons are the only ones that are fit to fly, so is it okay if we leave you guys here?"

"Y-yeah, sure," Jasmine replies.

"Just blow your bugle if you need help!" Mr. Marren calls as they quickly dissapear into the distance. 

Well. Now it was 3 teenagers, 3 weakened dragons, and a boy tied up in ropes, relatively alone. That's when Daniel revealed his secret weapon. It was so fast I barely saw it- one second, he was sitting almost contently, like he'd given up- and the next, he was standing up, holding what looked like another Midnight stone arrow! The sharp tip of it was cutting into the rope, slicing it ferociously. 

Lexi jumps up. "NO!" she yells in a panic. He only smiles. I'm the one to blow the horn this time, but it's too late- even as Lexi tries to grab hold of him, he cuts through the last piece of rope binding him. 

Hey! This is pretty short and unedited, but hopefully this'll help revive, if that's still happening :) 

~ Lyra ~

I start unbuckling Soror's saddle.  Before I have even finished the first strap a bugle sounds faintly but still clearly.  Unlike the first time though it doesn't stop.  The call echoes through the mountains, reverberating against the stones of Equidron and the drums of my ears.

Lyra, get help.

There is fear in Soror's voice.  Something I have never heard.  Controlled fear, but still fear.  It makes me all the more anxious.

No, we're Rider and dragon.  One never abandons the other, remember?

Soror doesn't argue.  Though I can feel her reluctance in letting me come in to the danger.

Get on.  She says tersely.

I begin to re-buckle the strap I had undone but Soror stops me with a shake of her massive head.

There is no time.

I vault on to the saddle and grap a spike as the saddle tilts sideways lacking a strap to hold it in place.  I shift the saddle as Soror launches into the air.  She flaps her wings and sends us shooting across the air.  I bend low over her neck and squint my eyes against the oncoming air.  The saddle slides below me with each beat of Soror's wings.  I grip the spike tightly. 

We are flying faster than I ever have and yet the flight seems to take to long.

Nearing the place Soror angles strait upwards and cups her wings, slowing our flight with a sharp jerk.  I was expecting it but was still knocked against her hard scale covered body.  My breath whoosed out from my lungs.  I take a deep breath to fill my lungs again as Soror plumets down. Her wings straining to stop us from hitting the ground.

I throw myself off the saddle before Soror even lands, rolling to soften the impact.  I jump up as if the ground was covered in springs and scan the area quickly.

Blue frantically blows the bugle.  Jasmine is frozen in place, her eyes wide in horror.  I follow where her eyes look and everything seems to freeze.

Daniel, grinning fanatically, has one arm wrapped tightly around Lexi.  His other hand holds a black dagger of midnight stone to her throat.  Lexi holds her head high and her face shows no sign of fear.

I unfreeze and rush towards him, Soror behind me.

"One more move and she dies", Daniel hisses.

I stop.

"Perhaps we can make a bargain", I say.

He laughs, from cruel amusement.  "Yes, a bargain", he sneers.  "All the forces of the Dragon Riders must join King Azazel and only then I might possibly let this girl go."

Lexi and Jasmine speak at once.  "Never."

"Then she dies", Daniel hisses and presses the dagger against her throat.  A thin line of red appears where the dagger presses and Lexi pinches her lips together.

Simultaneously Jasmine and I whip arrows from our quivers but Blue beats us.  A bow twangs and an arrow flies past Daniel's head.  Momentarily distracted her turns his head.  Jasmine and I take our opportunity and throw ourselves on top of Daniel.

Jasmine knocks him down, allowing me a chance to grip his wrist.  He holds tightly to the dagger.  But I squeeze his wrist tighter and tighter util he lets go.  He bucks all the while and we would not have been able to hold him down much longer if Lexi and Blue had not also thrown themsleves on to Daniel.

Soror pushes us gently aside and places on large, red claw on his chest.

Move and you die, she growls at him.

Whew, sorry about the length.  I hope I didn't take over anyone's character.  I tried to base their actions off their personalities, hopefully I did alright.  Feel free to change anything if you don't like it.

Thank you for reading this Admins! 

I love reading this! Please keep it alive!

Alright, I'm in!

She's very intelligent and loves reading and drawing. Although she's sort of a beginning rider, she's very skilled, and often a little too bold and unafraid for her own good.

Background: Her parents were apparently dragon riders, but she never knew them. She has no memories of them, and no one at Equidron ever talks about them. The only thing she has left of her parents is Kuunvalo. He was her first memory.

If dragon, who is their dragon rider, and if dragon rider, who is their dragon?: Kuunvalo
