Dragon Slayer (part three)

Within a few minutes, two heavily cloaked travelers walked out of the prison. The gate guards took notice of them when they exited the city, but Ducky merely smiled and waved.

Hrazzi nodded in appreciation. "You can do anything Ducky!"

"That includes betrayal it seems." An armored man sat on top of a flaming demon horse a few yards away.

Hrazzi licked his lips when he saw the horse, it was beautiful beyond anything he'd ever seen. "Be careful Ducky, he looks dangerous."

"Leave him to me." Ducky drew her bow and opened fire on Nix as he charged them. He was almost upon them when Hrazzi gated out.

Nix dropped the flames and slid off Nightmare. "Thanks for missing Ducky. You okay?"

Ducky had her lower lip stuck out, her face filled with disappointment. "I didn't miss on purpose, I thought it would be more realistic if I hit you a few times."

"Oh, I see. A bit more practice then." Nix patted her head softly, making her smile. "Good work once again Ducky."
