Gren exhaled to herself while she swept away the rubble that Kondra had left behind. Honestly, who was rude enough to dig a hole out in soones ceiling simply because they were hungry? And holy dragons were worshipped as being well-mannered by humans. Just because holy dragons refrained from eating at, the humans viewed everything they did in a positive light. Little did the humans know, most holy dragons were slobs who laid around doing nothing all day. Gren brought the rubble to the entrance of the palace before patting it into dust with her paw. Then, she blew the tiny particles outside. She walked back into the palace and poked her head into the living room. Kal, fix the roof when you have ti, will you?
Yep, sure thing, Kal said, his eyes not moving from the boardga resting between him and Kondras mate. The cursed dragon moved a piece on the board forward, causing Kondras mate to frown.
Gren pulled her head back upon hearing Kals acknowledgent. She was about to make her way back to her room when the sound of lumbering footsteps caused her to turn around. A very familiar holy dragon ca into view. Gren blinked and tilted her head. Youre back already?
I realized I forgot sothing, Kondra said.
Gren blinked again and tilted her head to the other side. The vague outline of a question mark seed to appear over her forehead. But you didnt bring anything with you? Unless youre talking about your mate or daughter?
No, no, Kondra said and shook her head. I forgot I had sothing to tell your son.
Gren raised an eyebrow. Well, alright, she said and nodded. She leaned over to the side and peeked around Kondras body. Her gaze landed on the mud and dirt being trekked inside, a trail of brown left on the palace floor. Grens eyes narrowed. Hadnt the holy dragon ever heard of using the welco mat? A sigh escaped from the cursed dragons mouth. Its been a while since Ive cleaned the entrance of my ho. Now is as good a ti as any I suppose.
No! Kondra said, practically shouting. She cleared her throat upon seeing Grens startled gaze. You cant. Theres, uh, a disease outside, and you cant leave your house right now.
Theres a disease outside my house, Gren said with a blank expression. She said it as a statent, but she was clearly questioning the sweating holy dragon.
Right, right, Kondra said, bobbing her head up and down.
And I cant leave?
Absolutely, Kondra said. You cant leave. Let finish my talk with Grimmy, and Ill take him outside to clear the disease for you. Theres no need for you to trouble yourself.
Gren stared at Kondra, and the holy dragon snarled while taking a step back.
What are you looking at like that for? Kondra asked. She raised her head and puffed her chest up. Im doing you a favor, and youre suspecting ?
Thats right, Gren said and nodded. Im suspecting you because youre acting extrely suspicious. She took a step to the right. I wonder what youre trying to hide from .
Kondra took a step to the left, blocking Grens path. Im not hiding anything from you, Kondra said. Nothing at all. Go back, Gren.
Grens eyes narrowed. If youre not hiding anything, then why are you blocking my way?
Im not hiding anything, Kondra said, shifting her body even more to prevent Gren from going towards the entrance. I already told you; theres a disease outside, and you cant go out. You wont listen to , so what else can I do but block your way?
Gren sat back on her haunches and chuckled. You want to keep captive in my own ho? Keep dreaming! Without warning, she pounced on Kondra, and the two turned into a blurred ball of black and white scales. Blood scattered as teeth snapped. The walls shook, and dust fell from the ceiling. The two male dragons in the living room took their gazes off their boardga and made eye contact with each other. They both shrugged and resud staring at their ga.
Not too far away from the ball of rolling scales and claws, Lulu poked her head out of her room. Her cheeks turned pinked, and she placed her front paw on her forehead. Why was her mom so aggressive? Couldnt she tell her behavior was embarrassing? A sigh escaped from Lulus mouth as she retreated back into her room. As for doing sothing about the fight between two matriarchs, who was she kidding? She was just a young dragon that couldnt stop a teor yet. Without an appropriate amount of strength, trying to interfere in a fight between two dragons was like trying to break a dragons egg with a rock. Before the rock could even get close, the holder of said rock would be eaten.
In a different room, Ramon raised his head. Gloria was standing at the door. Our grandmas are fighting again, she said, causing Ramons eyes to light up. He climbed to his feet.
Vurs not here to stop them this ti, the baby holy dragon said and rushed out the room. Who do you think will win? Ill ask Mama to make us so snacks, so we can eat sothing while we watch.
Youll get in trouble again if you do that, Gloria said but did nothing to stop her brother as she followed him to their parents room. Im telling you now, so when you ask later why I didnt stop you from getting into trouble, Ill say I did, but you didnt listen to .
Ramon rolled his eyes. Yeah, whatever, he said. We dont have to tell Mama why were asking for snacks. We just have to eat them. His feet froze, and a snarling ball of black and white rolled past him. After it disappeared down the corridor, he continued walking as if nothing had happened. He turned his head back to look at Gloria, who had stopped. What are you waiting for? If I ask for food, Mama will question , but if you ask with , shell make it for us without wondering why.
