Iku felt sympathetic for the woman who just lost her sanity. Maybe if Iku got there sooner? She shook her head. She did what she could and there was no going back on it. Iku sighed as she patted the back. It was the only comfort she could give really. Iku then suddenly heard Tyr's command. She had no option really but to listen.
"Gotcha, Kiara you heard him lets get the hell out of here!" She said sounding positive.
Kiara nodded her head as she then started to take off, where they were going, they weren't even sure themselves.

Tyr had Orlith take off once he was sure that everyone was safe. Aloft, he asked, "Is everyone alright?" They didn't look like they were injured too badly. In the end, only Kiara was physically wounded to the extent that they feared for her life but other than that they were all fine.
To Iku, who was calming the woman down, Tyr said, "Think you can ask her if she knows a place we can go? A place with healers...a hospital maybe? Don't force her though...she's been through a lot." Tyr looked sympathetically at the woman before checking up on Mitsuko.
"Michi!" He half-yelled because the angel was a bit far. "Come land on Orlith for now."

Mitsuko flew to Orlith as quickly as her wings could carry her. She had the child still in her arms and then she landed on Ortlith.
"Once we find a place to land then I'll take a look at each of you as well. But I caught part of what Tyr said... if we can find a place with a lot of healers then that would be most helpful."
The young angel was fatigued just like everyone else but she decided not to complain but just smile and comfort those that really did need comforting.

A large cobalt blue dragon swooped its way from the skies, his color almost camouflaging himself with the wild blue yonder above. He's been encompassing the building ranges for a while, searching for any other survivors, and at the sight of two dragons apart from himself, Orphion didn't waste a moment longer to glide down towards them, but surprisingly, with no Rider in sight on him.
"Orlith! Kiara...!"[/i] He called out, circling around them as he made a swift turn to follow their flying flow, now soaring beside Orlith. "Follow me. Happy as I am, I need to take you all to safety first. Come!"[/i] With a strong push of his wings, Orphion flew through the wind, leading the way to an unknown destination.
He glanced behind a bit, to take a look of the black dragon for a while, but shrugged himself to keep his emotions straight until this duty is done. "Are you all alright? My Rider is waiting at the sanctuary of the floating piece of the city."[/i]
A floating piece of city on the already floating metropolis, infected at that. So, a tiny piece of land free of the virus would be a decent sanctuary for anyone. The trip up there didn't take that long. In fact, it's completely hidden because of its metallic blue tinge that disguised it as a piece of the sky. Since the metropolis is large enough to include several administrative districts scattering all over the place, the 'tiny' piece of hidden floating city is actually rather large, big enough for 10 or so dragons to sit by each other to fit the whole perimeter.[/color]
Zephel stood after looking over a child's bruise. He wasn't stupid enough to charge right into a battle alone, so he just hovers around Gradia while keeping a sharp eye for any survivors left. He picked up several children on his way, hiding from the Syns inside a broken ferris-wheel-like machine...thing. Then he spotted a lone man running away from a horde of Syns, so he swooped up the lucky man with Orphion's help from the skies, then a pair of twin sisters being cornered, both turned out to be nurses apparently, so Zeph is rather thankful of his luck.
He just got done looking over each and every bruise of the victims he saved, so far as his eyes lets it, he haven't noticed any bite marks aside from bruises and cuts they received after all they had gone through, luckily. Or Zeph would end up killing that person to stop the virus from spreading...
"...ORPHION!!" He called out as soon as he caught sight of his blue dragon, happy to see he brought more than what the silver-haired expected. In fact, the sight grows a smile on his lips as he signals for Orphion to land on the free area available a ways away from where all the humans stood.

It was needless to say that Tyr was surprised to see Orphion after a long time. While Zephel, Orphion's rider, was still a member of his Weyr in Ianne, Tyr allowed the young man to just kinda do his own thing since he was of special status in the ranks. Orphion was Kiara's mate for a while now which was quite rare since female dragons tend to change mate choices depending on whether or not the male was fit and strong. Since Orphion has been winning that honor for the past two years, Tyr thought that was safe to say that Orphion was one of the fastest and strongest dragons in the whole continent outside of Orlith and Kiara.
Tyr had Orlith follow the blue dragon and his eyes widened when he saw the floating chunks of earth above the metropolis. It was amazing to see a whole city float when he and Iku were flying over to Gradia. It was even more amazing to see individual hunks of earth floating as if gravity never existed.
Upon landing, Tyr slid down from Orlith's forearm to greet one of his subordinate riders, one that he has not seen for a while now. "Zephel!" He called out while striding to the silver-haired young man and extending a hand to shake his hand, "Aren't we glad to see you." Tyr smirked then looked back towards the women.

Mitsuko slowly got off of Orlith with the little girl in her arms and greeted Zeph once more. She was thankful to see another friend- especially at a time like this they needed all the help that they could receive. She bumped into Zeph a few days before and there he was still the same as ever- but he was smiling a bit, and Mitsuko caught sight of that.
"Good to see you again Zeph, and Orphion long time no see. the last time I saw you was at the gardens back in the school." Mitsuko called to Orphion greeting him. The little girl that was in her arms had been quiet for some time now but again Misuko checked on her as she was held.

Iku was about to ask the woman if she was ok, but she didn't seem to be. She was still somewhat hurled into a ball. Iku placed a hand onto her back. It was the only form of comfort Iku could think of. But sometimes that's all that is needed. It wasn't long after, They were spotted by Kiara's mate, Orphian. She was happy to see him. That meant more allies. As they flew to the 'safety zone' Iku was glad there was a place to rest. "Hey, We're safe now" Iku said to the woman. Iku then lead the woman down off of Kiara and on to the ground.
Kiara on the other hand was starting to feel a bit weak. Maybe they did a little too much flying for her condition. But that was of no importance now. Kiara was just glad to be somewhere safe. Not only for her sake, but for Tyr, Iku, and everyone else that was there. Kiara was also glad to see Orphian was till as happy as ever. She forced a smile on her face. Hoping that he wouldn't notice the bandage on her neck. Kiara fell to the ground. So tired that she couldn't stand any longer.
There was a loud 'thud' as Kiara fell to the ground. She knew right away that it was Kiara, and Iku's heart stopped. Rushing over towards her best friend, scared to death. "Kiara! Are you ok?" Iku yelled as she sat beside Kiara's head.
"I'm fine, really i am, I'm just tired" Kiara said. She didn't want to scare anyone as she was about to lay herself down. But laying down, turned to falling down.

After the woman's outburst of panic she had slowly curled herself into a tight ball, sobbing silently and struggling for breath. It was true she had come through the few days without being turned and no serious injuries but she had not eaten since this began. Weak from lack of food and water the woman's mind was starting to go, her vision blurry. Swaying a little, the only thing that brought her concentration back was the loud thud of the dragon falling. It threw her heart into a rapid beat and she screamed at the top of her lungs. This expended the last of her stored energy and the woman fell unconscious.
Slowly, all the muscles that had been locked down and jittery with over used adrenaline released themselves. The woman fell to the ground loudly for one her size, her eyes rolled over in the back of her head so the white were showing.
Seeing this the little girl who had been clinging to the angel quietly began to cry. "What happened to her! She's not moving! Her eyes!" she sobbed and buried her face into the woman that held her. "Make it stop! Make it all better again!"

"Kiara..." Mitsuko and everyone else knew from the get go that Kiara was extremely tired as well as trying her best to pull through this upsetting situation.
The angel held the little girl with one arm while she kneeled down to check on Kiara. Mitsuko started to cast her healing magic once more to help ease Kiara's pain and to soothe her body as she rested. "We are all here with you Kiara."
Then the angel checked on the woman that was also weak from the lack of food, and water. Yes it was creepy how the lady's eyes rolled back but she couldn't think about how creepy it was at this very moment, all she could do for the time being was pitch in.
"I... need some assistance everyone. is there any food and water nearby? that we could give to this lady as well as Kiara?"

Zephel nodded in recognition at Tyr as he was being approached by the Weyrleader, then took his hand and shake hands with him gladly. "Likewise, Tyr." He replied with an inconceivable grin on his face, truly is happy to see an old friend after all these years. "I heard you got married. Congratulations."
Zeph never got the chance to officially congratulate the Weyrleader, heck he never knows of any ceremonies about going on. He got the news from Orphion after all, though he wonders if this is a good time to catch up on things in the middle of a crisis like this.
It wasn't long for him to notice that Tyr came with a few other allies towing behind. He immediately recognized Mitsuko, and greeted her shortly with a slight nod. His eyes shifted to the little girl in the angel's arm quite fast, and his expression quickly drops down to seriousness at the sight. Looks like he wasn't alone in saving these poor souls.
Zeph took a step near them, and then saw Iku with a woman. A very traumatized woman, that is. At this, the element-wielder takes a closer look at her by walking towards her, but then was shaken by the rumble of the ground due to Kiara's fall. And right after that, the woman fell too after a shrill scream.
"KIARA!!" As composed and calm as he normally is, Orphion cannot bear to stay still when his mate literally collapsed in front of him. He swiftly shifted his way towards the black dragon, and stretched his long neck down to take a closer look of Kiara.
He begged his rider to leave the school and came all this way to find her, and now that he did, the sight of her like this almost broke him into a state of self-fault. If it wasn't for Zeph holding control of half of his mind, Orphion would have fallen into complete panic. He tried to calm himself as he watched how her Rider rushed towards her, frightened of what had become of the black one.
"Tired? This isn't what you call fatigue--"[/i] Orphion nudged Kiara's head a bit, just beside Iku, but paused his own statement as he caught scent of something wrong...what's worst is its coming from Kiara. The blue dragon craned his neck to look over Kiara, and his eyes widened to its fullest extent at the sight of the deep would right at his love's neck.
It took all of Orphion's might to keep his jaw clenched tight to stop himself from growling extremely loud, but merely minimizing it to a deep grunt, slight clouds of smoke already escaping his nostrils as he did. He's furious, of whoever the hell that bit Kiara, and the rage almost driven him to take off and burn all the Syns in sight...[/color]
With widening eyes, Zeph walked passed Mitsuko and the little girl, standing beside the woman as he glanced over to her. Her lips cracked, her skin's dry...she's dehydrated, seriously. He looked up towards his dragon next, and proceeded to approach the pissed dragon to calm Orphion down by caressing him a bit, as he watched Mitsuko healing the black dragon with her magic.
"They've emptied my water supplies." Zeph answered to the angel, cocking his head to the people he had managed to save, and indeed, empty water bottles littered the area where they stand. "But I can get all the water you need if this god-forsaken city has an open source of water."
He directly turned to the locals he saved, eying each and every one of them, expecting one to answer. True, he's not particularly great at summoning water, or pull the water straight from the air they breath, but he has the ability to at least direct water to their location, and he's not afraid to at least try and help.

Saiya blinked confusedly as she looked at the whole messed. She sympathized those who lives in this now messy place, but more over; she was worried of all the people who will get infected because of the failure experiments in this place. Gwen who rest at her left shoulder let out a soft -kyuu-. Albeit her small features, the fire lizard is known to be a presence finder.
At that soft -kyuu- of the fire lizard, Saiya levitate herself; now searching for what Gwen is perching her little nose up. "Are you sure other people are there, Gwen?" Saiya let out quietly, as she looked forward. Though believing at what Gwen said, she couldn't lower her guard down; Gwen search for living creatures, that doesn't mean they are people but synthetic men.
Saiya narrowed her eyes a bit as she slow down, she could see people below, and three dragons below. Her eyes widen, they're all familiar albeit the years passed. She lowered herself to the ground, right, she was surprised to see the once students at the DD in front of her.
She blinked once and twice, they've all grown up. She looked at the silver haired guy, right, she have met him once only. But that doesn't mean she have forgotten him. She have heard his statement, she firstly looked at him.
"I saw a water tank nearby, in my calculations... it would be 50 meters away from here..." she replied, looking at the silver haired guy with those serious look. Then, she took a glanced at all of them. Starting from Iku, Tyr and Mitsuko; then to the woman who is freaking out. "I would like to assist... if that would be fine with you all..." she let out as Gwen suddenly leave her shoulder and just flew beside her.

Tyr listened and participated in the small discussion about the health of the civilians that he and the others have saved. Zephel was right, Tyr thought, they could live for days without food but they wouldn't last long without water. They must find water but the problem is locating a reservoir that was not infected. Without knowledge of how this virus was spread in clear detail, Tyr felt that he must be cautious with whatever he feeds these people and his friends.
When Tyr saw Saiya, who looked the least bit familiar to him, he and heard the news about a tank nearby, he said, "Where is it? Orlith and I will accompany you...uh..." Tyr looked at the girl confusedly, he couldn't remember her name for the life of him. Tyr was sure he had met this girl in DD but he only knew her by face. He couldn't remember if her name at all. Even though they were in a grave situation, Tyr couldn't help but scratch the back of his head. "What's...your name again?"

Iku stood near Kiara, keeping an eye on both Kiara and the woman who was having a slight seizure. She was feeling a bit over whelmed at this point. And there was nothing Iku could do. She saw the woman come up. She had a familiar face. But in the moment Iku was in, How was she expected to remember? Iku then placed Her hand on Kiara's side.
Kiara lifted her head, looking at her surroundings. The frantic little girl. The dehydrated woman. Nothing but Chaos 'I'm fine, really I am, Dont worry about me" Kiara said. There was too much sadness, She didn't want this, she wanted to protect the people around her, not cause their misery. She could see it in Orphian's eyes as well. He was worried for her. Kiara put on a smile, underneath those scales.
Iku looked at Kiara, she was obviously exhausted. She had done so much for Iku, that it was now her turn to do something for Kiara. She looked towards Tyr.
"Tyr, I'll go with you" She said in a stern voice "Michi, Will you watch over Kiara for me?" She asked

Saiya smiled at Tyr and to Iku and bow slightly, "I am Saiya..." she answered then looking at Gwen. "This is Gwen, my fire lizard. I remember you Tyr giving her to me..." she added as she looked at her fire lizard who suddenly went and perched on her left shoulder.
She looked at Iku, who is worried at her dragon; as Mitsuko is there healing it. "Shall we proceed then?" she asked at the two, seemingly waiting in patience. They must quickly find the water tank and see if it is not contaminated. She really hope that it wasn't contaminated by the virus.

"Sure Iku. Leave her to me." Mitsuko responded with a nod. "All of you be careful."
Deep down in her heart she felt a familiar presence a few miles away. This is a feeling in which she hadn't experienced in such a long time. The warmth that she felt hugged her heart, so tightly that tears had formed in her eyes. She knew that warmth came from her brother but where was he?
She didn't know however nearby at the gradia coliseum that her brother was experiencing similar feelings as well, however they hadn't got reunited yet, and these feelings usually happen when one is near- Jake and Mitsuko haven't seen each other for a few years now due to circumstances so experiencing these feelings was overwhelming.
She shook her head and just focused on healing Kiara. Helping Kiara get well was her priority at the moment. She made sure that the gorgeous black dragon was in comfort as much as she could be, and was looked after thanks to the angel's powers.
