"=== Red Dragon Inn: 2015-04-22 20:00 ===
= Andu Kirost has entered the room =
Andu Kirost: ::Andu silently slips in through the back alley door, pausing a couple steps in to take a long look around the relatively6 crowded common room.::
Tiarya: ::She pushed the back door in and wandered into the inn pausing to glance around. Her one wing was no longer bandaged and actually looked usable but still red where it was orginally injured... She glanced around and quickly noticed Andu and wandering over giving a wave to a few familar faces in the inn.::
Andu Kirost: ::Reaching his chosen spot, Andu leans over the bar to snag his special coffee mug, and turns to lean back against the bar. Not ""quite"" sitting on it.::
Andu Kirost: ::Andu smiles and gives a nod and wave to Tia when she is spoted, though she also receives an assessing look, his eyes taking in the sights of those prior injuries.::
Tiarya: ::She wanders around the bar and pauses stretching her wing so Andu can see it a little bit... the wing membrane is healed thankfully but still looks tender.:: ""Better but not complete yet.."" :She sighed taking a seat on a bar stool before glancing about the inn again for a moment... :: ""I think I've tracked them down""
Andu Kirost: Ah. That is good. Think they are something you can handle?
Tiarya: ""Well Seina said she wants to chew on one..."" ::She chuckles softly shaking her head:: ""She is big enough to easily do so.."" ::She thinks for a moment seriously debating his question but she gives a quick nod:: ""If I plan it correctly ... they will be easy to take out... just got to make sure Seina understands the plan""
Andu Kirost: ::Nods.:: That is good, but make sure you have back up plans in place, in case something goes wrong.
= Baby Ice has entered the room =
Tiarya: ::She stretched her wings a little as she debated the situation glancing about the inn for a moment and giving Eyahue a nod as he got to the bar... She turned her head back to Andu thinking over a few ideas:: ""Well that is what I've been going over... once I am sure of at least three or four options then I will go ahead and put it into action""
Andu Kirost: That sounds wise to me. But make sure you have a ""G.T.H"" plan as well.
Baby Ice: a small white hatchling out of the under the couch. she sniffed around.
Tiarya: ::She blinks and tilts her head then seems to understand giving a nod..:: ""Yes... yes that is true..."" :She thinks as she slowly curls her tail around her ankle as she thinks it over...:: ""IThere are three... of them... they are well armed for dragon hunting.. but it appears nothing really for close range contact...""
Baby Ice: she moves to stalk Andu.
Andu Kirost: Then it sounds like the trick will be to get in clsoe before they know you are even aware of where to find them. Distracted by Tia, her injuries,a nd her plans, Andu doesn't notice the hatchling stalking him.::
Baby Ice: she moves low, flicking her tail. she pounced on his feet.
Tiarya: ::She thinks to herself... :: ""Yes I have a few different plans.. I'd prefer to lure them away from their camp...."" ::She thinks then notices somethin by Andu's feet the chuckles softly at the hatchling::
Andu Kirost: ::ANdu does jerk a bit at having his feet pounced, but manages to not kick out or anything really major, just jerking his feet a bit as his gaze snaps down to see what is after him tonight.:: Ah! A hatchling!
Baby Ice: Blue eyes peeks up at him, and she head but his leg. wanting a scratch,
Andu Kirost: ::Andu smiles, and reaches down to give Baby Ice scritches.:: Hello there, Litte One.
Baby Ice: she was itchy and dy skin. she looks arond for her momma. she chruip for her..
Andu Kirost: ::Andu tilts his head, as if listening to whispering in his ear.:: Ah, your mama isn't here, Icesong. ::And he did notice the dry skin when providing scritches.:: Would you like me to help you with that dry scale?
Tiarya: ::She watched the little hatchling and Andu with a soft sigh frowning a little a little for a moment: ""Who is this Andu..?""
Andu Kirost: This is Icesong, one of Icer's. I think she may be missing her mother.
Baby Ice: she nods, and peeks at Tia.
Andu Kirost: Icesong, this is Tia. She is a good friend, almost family.
Tiarya: ::She frowns a little at Andu's words and gives a slow nod sighing softly:: ""I Hope Icer gets better soon.. its been too long.."" ::Her attention is then drawn down to Icesong smiling:: ""Hello little one.."" ::She twitched her tail left to right watching the small hatchling curiously::
Andu Kirost: ::Andu sets his coffee mug on the bar and reaches into a pouch on his belt to take out a large toothpaste style tube as he kneels in front of the bar.::
Baby Ice: she purred her hello.
Tiarya: ::She smiled at the hatchling before her attention was drawn back to Andu who was now kneeling... She raised an eyebrow and tilted her head slightly to the side curious in to what he was up too..::
Baby Ice: she moves closer to Andu, standing in front of him. wings out alittle bit.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu dispenses a little of the scale oil out of the tube onto his fingers and holds them out for Icesong to smell. She should recall it as the oil used by her mother for dry scales.::
Baby Ice: she sniffed and oil and nods to andu.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu carefully starts applying the oil to Icesong's scales, starting at the dryest spots and working to cover all of her.:: Scale Oil. Icesong here has a serious case of dry scales.
Tiarya: ""Oh"" ::she blinks watching thinking to herself for a moment:: ""Thats not a bad idea""
Baby Ice: she sighs, feeling the oil seep in. purring very loudly.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu gives Tia a raised eyebrow.:: Oh? This oil is some that was made up for Icer, I keep a supply on hand for Icer, and others with scales that might need it.
Tiarya: ::She gives another nod as she thinks to herself:: ""I've never had much of an issue.."" :She smiles softly as she looks down at the hatchling:: ""Thankfully"" :She chuckles softly as she shifts her wings on her back:: ""But the idea of having an oil around is not a bad one""
Andu Kirost: ::Nods.:: I can have Gaia run off a batch for you, if you would likle. It is actually full dragon that really have the problem, it seems. It does seem to occur most often while they are growing.
Tiarya: ""Well I haven;t had a need for it at the moment.. but if I do I know where to go"" :She chuckles softly before slowly standing and giving a nod:
Andu Kirost: ::Nods as he continues applying the oil to Icesong's scales.:: Okay, tia. HEading out?
Tiarya: ""Ya I want to think over some more options before putting this all into action..."" :She nods thinking for a moment befire giving a grin: ""But want to act soon... "" :She stretches her wings and slowly heading behind the bar towards the back door: ""I will let you know how well it goes"" :She nods: ""Night Andu take care""
Andu Kirost: But not too soon, give yourself time to heal first. Sweet Dreams & Restful Sleep, when that time comes, Tia.
Tiarya: ::She gives him a wave before slipping out the back door::
Andu Kirost: ::Andu finishes applying the scale oil to Icesong's scales.:: There, is that better, little one?
Baby Ice: she nods. folding her wings back on her back
Andu Kirost: ::Andu winces, like some one just YELLED in his ear.:: Oh oh. It seems I'm late for a meeting, Icesong. Would you like to come with me?
Baby Ice: she shakes her head no. and look back at the couch.
Andu Kirost: OKayt, you going to be okay? I will try to get back as soon as I can.
Andu Kirost: Want me to help you get back into your hiding spot girl?
Baby Ice: she nods. and shakes her head.
Andu Kirost: Okay, you will be okay, and You can return on your own, right?
Baby Ice: she nods.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu bends forward togive her a good scritching.:: Then I'll say, Sweet Dreams & REstful Sleep, in case you fall asleep before I can return.
Baby Ice: she purred at the scratching
Andu Kirost: ::With a last scritch and a bit of a nuzzle with his nuckles, Andu stands.:: I need to get going, you take care, and I'll check in on you later.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu straightens, and lumbers hurriedly for the back alely door.::
Andu Kirost: ::Quickly ducking his head, he pushes his way out and into the night's embrace.... Only to have that embrace ruptured by a flash of shimmering blue light.::
((Andu went to attend the Governor's Town Hall meeting for an hour or two at this time))
Baby Ice: she was curled against the bar, snoring very loudly. as long as no one step o n the small white hatchling.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu silently slips in through the back alley door once mroe, having decided to forgo the run on burghers that followed the Townhall meeting.::
Baby Ice: Purring very loud
Andu Kirost: ::Andu grins, and follows the sound of loud purring to its source.::
Baby Ice: she was curled agaist the bar, her head was under the wing,
Andu Kirost: ::finding the white hatchling asleep next to the bar, Andu carefully kneels next to her and speaks softly.:: Hey, Ice song. You not make it back to your ""lair""?
Baby Ice: she yawns and peaks out under her wing. Looking at andu.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu grins at Icesong.:: So, you decide to wait up for me? Or just get to tired to make it back under the couch? ::chuckles soflty.
Baby Ice: she headbut to andu on his first question,
Andu Kirost: ::Andu smiles, and sits on the floor, thereby creating a lap Icesong could take advantage of, if she wanted to.:: So, you want snuggles, or did you just want a hand getting back under that couch?
Baby Ice: She moves into his lap, purring started again.
Andu Kirost: ::And when Icesong does move onto his lap, scritches will also start up again.:: You been doing okay here? Keeping yourself fed and well?
Baby Ice: she was still smaller than she should be, the marks on her legs had been healed but they are still scars.
Andu Kirost: ::Knowing her mother as he does, size issomething Andu doesn't readily mention, though her lack of growth is noted, as are the scars.::
Baby Ice: she closed her eyes at the scratches. feeling so good. she lifted her wings up.
Andu Kirost: ::Smiling at her reaction, Andu also takes advantage of the opportunity to check out her wings, and the surfaces they normally cover, checking for injury, and other igns of ill health. Just in case.::
Baby Ice: she had a scar on her shoulder where she was shot. and her wrist was little weak from being broken durning her capture.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu frowns a bit at all the damage Icesong has already taken in her short life.:: You have had a hard time, haven't you girl? We should see about getting you some fun times to balance them out.
Baby Ice: she worried that ivy was dead, it shown in her eyes.
Andu Kirost: ::Well, Andu isn't a mind reader, so he doesn't know ""what"" is bothering her, though he can tell something is.:: Is something bothering you, Icesong?
Baby Ice: pictures of Ivy flickered in his head.
Andu Kirost: Ah! ::Andu nods in understanding.:: Haven't seen him in some time, have you? Want me to help you see if we can find him?
Baby Ice: She nods and touched his watch.
Baby Ice: with her nose.
Andu Kirost: When? Well, we need to plan. The when, and also the where.
Baby Ice: it was before she was snatched off the streets at their manor. when she was under brimstone she saw him then, she put some pictures of the old place.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu nods at the pictures forming in his mind.:: well, when ever you are ready, I can take you around there, and we can see if he is home. Or has been seen recently.
Baby Ice: She nods. she hadn't made it out of the inn. in hope to see him. she didn't know it was no longer stand.
Andu Kirost: ::Well, Andu never really knew where she lived, only that it was with Ivy, so he wouldn't be aware of any damage to her ""home"" there.::
Baby Ice: she tread her paws, and tail was flickering.
Andu Kirost: Would you like to go check now?
Baby Ice: a nod.
Andu Kirost: Okay, you want me to carry you, or would you like to climb up onto my shoulder? It seems a popular perch for small ones. ::Andu would hold one arm out along one leg, forming a sort of ""ramp"" up to his shoulder.::
Baby Ice: She stayed where she is. loving being baby for once.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu smiles, and takes the hint, gathering Icey up in his arms so he can cradle and carry her.:: Comfortable?
Baby Ice: she nods. and rubs her head to his chest.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu smiles as he stands, and makes for the front door.:: You will have to give me directions, as I don't know where the place you showed me is located.
Baby Ice: Giving him pictures of the way to the place.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu nods, and ducks his head to slip out the front door and across the porch. There he takes a moment to match the images up with the view to decide which way to turn once he hits the street.::
Andu Kirost: ::A nod of his head, and Andu steps off the porch and heads deeper into the city, following the images provided by Icesong.::
Baby Ice: it was next to the cemtary.

= Andu Kirost has entered the room =
Andu Kirost: ::Andu carefully walks toward the building shown to him by Icesong. Every sense alert and rapidly scanning the area. Icesong still cradled in his arms. Unfortunatly, it seems that while the terrain is pretty much the same, the building itself is far from it.::
Baby Ice: Blue eyes darted to the ruins of her former home. memories and the words of love had sent ache to her heart. a few ice tears slip down her cheeks. This was her only chance to find him. she wigglled to be put down down.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu kneels, and carefully lowers her to the ground.:: Take care, it could be dangerous still there.
Baby Ice: She took a few steps as a dragonling then a few steps her human. she wore some clothes that was a few size too big. ""what we going to do, Andu?""
Andu Kirost: Hrmm. Well, I think we need to first figure out what happened here, and where your friend Ivy has gotten to. At this point what we need are information. With out it we can't plan well what to do.
Baby Ice: she nods. 'If we can get to the computer, Villa... maybe she could tell us what happened."" she picked through the rubbled. tears steady fall.
Andu Kirost: A computer. That is something I can, possibly, work with. Where is this computer located?
Baby Ice: 'she was out the Lair. in the ground. we need to locate the motor board.. I only saw her once. she didn't like me.""
Andu Kirost: Okay. Any idea about ""where"" she was, from a ground level perspective? ::Andu nods, and reaches up to tap at his upper left arm.:: Gaia, I need a magnetic scan of this lot. We are looking for a computer, so keep it low level.
Baby Ice: 'she was next to the main bedroom... our bedroom."" she moves, tip toes on the ruins. ""around here.... if there was a bomb, could she be alive?""
Andu Kirost: She might be. But it is unlikely she is operating at the moment. But that isn't a problem. If we can find the hardware that makes her up, I can have Gaia transport her back to the C3 complex of my home, and Dia and Gaia can either revive her, or at least retrieve what information is available on her drives.
Andu Kirost: Close to the main building, Gaia. Scan no more than 200 feet outside of the foundation.
Baby Ice: she nods. and looks around. ""the entrance has been cave in."" she looks around. she knees down and started digging in the soot. ""He was trying to do an antidote so he could drink my blood.... But I have a feeling my blood that killed him.""
Andu Kirost: No. Your blood may or may not have been the weapon of choice, but, if he is dead, then the hand that wielded the weapon is where the blame for his death lays. ::And gets down on his knees to assist Icesong in digging out the area she seeems to believe the coumpter is located in.
Andu Kirost: ::
Baby Ice: she found some wires wich was a good sign, she looks to the wires. ""here's a bunch of wires. we could follow them right?""
Andu Kirost: ::Andu nods.:: From what I know of computers, we can.
Baby Ice: ""how deep do they go."" she lifts up her hand, smoothing soot on her face by accent. ""Can Gaia tell us witch way?""
Andu Kirost: ::Andu looks closely at the wires.:: Why don't you start digging out around them, and I'll widen the passage as you go.
Baby Ice: she would slowly digged them out. she didnt know if they are alive or not. she hated the computer but now she needed the computer.
Andu Kirost: ::A female voice issues from Andu's upper left arm.:: The core of the computer seems to be in the direction away form the house, but not too deep. I think Andu will need to open the way once you reach the outside wall of where it is located.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu works behind Icey, clearing out the debris from her digging, and carefully enlarging the opening so that even his massive form can fit. It shouldn't take long to arrive at the outer walls of ""Villa's"" enclosure.::
Baby Ice: 'Villa.... wake up.' she called out but only answers by silence,
Andu Kirost: Step back, Ivy. I'll make an opening so we can see what state she is in.::Andu carefully works his fingers into the outerwalll. Litterally simply crumbling the surface to dust as he wiggles his fingers deeper, until he can get a good grip, and rip a section of the wall free.::
(((( OOOOC break ))))
Andu Kirost: ((Time freeze for the gathering of approval to use Ivy's Villa, and information on data and condtion.))
Andu Kirost: ugs. My IMS have died again.
Andu Kirost: ((Your SL, your choice on the name, IceSong. };-) ))
Andu Kirost: ((FYI< IMS are instant messages. That little window conversations with specific people occurs in.))

Baby Ice: (oh ok)
Andu Kirost: ((My system is really starting to get lagged. I think I need to restart it. We can resume the play after you've had a chance to talk to Ivy mun about the computer((
Baby Ice: (ok. as soon as I see him)
Andu Kirost: ((And it is also bedtime for this mun, almost 1am here. You take care, Icey, and you also Summoner. };-) ))

Baby Ice: it was before she was snatched off the streets at their manor. when she was under brimstone she saw him then, she put some pictures of the old place.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu nods at the pictures forming in his mind.:: well, when ever you are ready, I can take you around there, and we can see if he is home. Or has been seen recently.
Baby Ice: She nods. she hadn't made it out of the inn. in hope to see him. she didn't know it was no longer stand.
Andu Kirost: ::Well, Andu never really knew where she lived, only that it was with Ivy, so he wouldn't be aware of any damage to her ""home"" there.::
Baby Ice: she tread her paws, and tail was flickering.
Andu Kirost: Would you like to go check now?
Baby Ice: a nod.
Andu Kirost: Okay, you want me to carry you, or would you like to climb up onto my shoulder? It seems a popular perch for small ones. ::Andu would hold one arm out along one leg, forming a sort of ""ramp"" up to his shoulder.::
Baby Ice: She stayed where she is. loving being baby for once.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu smiles, and takes the hint, gathering Icey up in his arms so he can cradle and carry her.:: Comfortable?
Baby Ice: she nods. and rubs her head to his chest.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu smiles as he stands, and makes for the front door.:: You will have to give me directions, as I don't know where the place you showed me is located.
Baby Ice: Giving him pictures of the way to the place.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu nods, and ducks his head to slip out the front door and across the porch. There he takes a moment to match the images up with the view to decide which way to turn once he hits the street.::
Andu Kirost: ::A nod of his head, and Andu steps off the porch and heads deeper into the city, following the images provided by Icesong.::
Baby Ice: it was next to the cemtary.

Andu Kirost: ::Andu carefully walks toward the building shown to him by Icesong. Every sense alert and rapidly scanning the area. Icesong still cradled in his arms. Unfortunatly, it seems that while the terrain is pretty much the same, the building itself is far from it.::
Baby Ice: Blue eyes darted to the ruins of her former home. memories and the words of love had sent ache to her heart. a few ice tears slip down her cheeks. This was her only chance to find him. she wigglled to be put down down.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu kneels, and carefully lowers her to the ground.:: Take care, it could be dangerous still there.
Baby Ice: She took a few steps as a dragonling then a few steps her human. she wore some clothes that was a few size too big. ""what we going to do, Andu?""
Andu Kirost: Hrmm. Well, I think we need to first figure out what happened here, and where your friend Ivy has gotten to. At this point what we need are information. With out it we can't plan well what to do.
Baby Ice: she nods. 'If we can get to the computer, Villa... maybe she could tell us what happened."" she picked through the rubbled. tears steady fall.
Andu Kirost: A computer. That is something I can, possibly, work with. Where is this computer located?
Baby Ice: 'she was out the Lair. in the ground. we need to locate the motor board.. I only saw her once. she didn't like me.""
Andu Kirost: Okay. Any idea about ""where"" she was, from a ground level perspective? ::Andu nods, and reaches up to tap at his upper left arm.:: Gaia, I need a magnetic scan of this lot. We are looking for a computer, so keep it low level.
Baby Ice: 'she was next to the main bedroom... our bedroom."" she moves, tip toes on the ruins. ""around here.... if there was a bomb, could she be alive?""
Andu Kirost: She might be. But it is unlikely she is operating at the moment. But that isn't a problem. If we can find the hardware that makes her up, I can have Gaia transport her back to the C3 complex of my home, and Dia and Gaia can either revive her, or at least retrieve what information is available on her drives.
Andu Kirost: Close to the main building, Gaia. Scan no more than 200 feet outside of the foundation.
Baby Ice: she nods. and looks around. ""the entrance has been cave in."" she looks around. she knees down and started digging in the soot. ""He was trying to do an antidote so he could drink my blood.... But I have a feeling my blood that killed him.""
Andu Kirost: No. Your blood may or may not have been the weapon of choice, but, if he is dead, then the hand that wielded the weapon is where the blame for his death lays. ::And gets down on his knees to assist Icesong in digging out the area she seeems to believe the coumpter is located in.
Andu Kirost: ::
Baby Ice: she found some wires wich was a good sign, she looks to the wires. ""here's a bunch of wires. we could follow them right?""
Andu Kirost: ::Andu nods.:: From what I know of computers, we can.
Baby Ice: ""how deep do they go."" she lifts up her hand, smoothing soot on her face by accent. ""Can Gaia tell us witch way?""
Andu Kirost: ::Andu looks closely at the wires.:: Why don't you start digging out around them, and I'll widen the passage as you go.
Baby Ice: she would slowly digged them out. she didnt know if they are alive or not. she hated the computer but now she needed the computer.
Andu Kirost: ::A female voice issues from Andu's upper left arm.:: The core of the computer seems to be in the direction away form the house, but not too deep. I think Andu will need to open the way once you reach the outside wall of where it is located.
Andu Kirost: ::Andu works behind Icey, clearing out the debris from her digging, and carefully enlarging the opening so that even his massive form can fit. It shouldn't take long to arrive at the outer walls of ""Villa's"" enclosure.::
Baby Ice: 'Villa.... wake up.' she called out but only answers by silence,
Andu Kirost: Step back, Ivy. I'll make an opening so we can see what state she is in.::Andu carefully works his fingers into the outerwalll. Litterally simply crumbling the surface to dust as he wiggles his fingers deeper, until he can get a good grip, and rip a section of the wall free.::
(((( OOOOC break ))))
Andu Kirost: ((Time freeze for the gathering of approval to use Ivy's Villa, and information on data and condtion.))
Andu Kirost: ugs. My IMS have died again.
Andu Kirost: ((Your SL, your choice on the name, IceSong. };-) ))
Andu Kirost: ((FYI< IMS are instant messages. That little window conversations with specific people occurs in.))
= Andu Kirost has entered the room =
Baby Ice: (oh ok)
Andu Kirost: ((My system is really starting to get lagged. I think I need to restart it. We can resume the play after you've had a chance to talk to Ivy mun about the computer((
Baby Ice: (ok. as soon as I see him)
Andu Kirost: ((And it is also bedtime for this mun, almost 1am here. You take care, Icey, and you also Summoner. };-) ))
Baby Ice: (good night)"
