“Draco, a knight of the kingdom of Selas here to accompany you on your trip to General Syzen” their voice was tense and deep which fit their appearance. The helm was lowered and the white haired young man inside was revealed.
“Please don’t forget anything important, it’d be bad if any of us had to come get it”
Lata squinted at him a moment before taking a step back towards her house. "Anything specific I gotta bring?" she asked, voice seeming a bit less on edge than before. She had most of her things set to go anyways, but if there was no point in taking half her closet, then she'd have to start over.
Syzen blinked a couple of times.
“You might want try the suit on first before judging it, pretty sure I thought a lot of it through. Also, it’s 30lbs” he suggested and answered for that matter.
Cat nodded, and grabbed the string to draw back. Then she looked at the man. "Does this have specialized arrows that go with it or do regular arrows work? Also about the suit, trust me when I say I've been doing archery since I was very small, I know what I need and don't need."
(That is one question I shall not answer… yet, you’ll see soon)
Draco shook his head.
“Just the necessaries; clothing, medicine, and all that” he confirmed as wind blew through his hair.
“Normal arrows work as any type of arrows that touch the bow will turn to enchanted ones” the man confirmed with a confident tone.
(i swear if he is here i'll be so happy)
Lata chewed on her bottom lip for a moment before turning on her heel to get her things. Even though "Draco" didn't seem all that trustworthy, if he was to take her to the general, then she would have to. "You're uh, welcome to come in for a moment," she said, finally going back inside. She didn't really wait to see if the other followed. Back in her room, she closed her bag and grabbed her final item: a necklace with a shimmering purple crystal hanging from a simple chain. An old friend had given it to her.
"Okay, do you have somewhere that I can shoot, like a range or something?" Cat said pulling an arrow out and testing it on the bow.
(We’ll see, we’ll see :D)
Coming out of her room, Lata would see Draco, without his armor on, in her house, on the floor and playing with a small puppy. He seemed kind to the small creature.
“Who’s a good little boy? That’s right you are” the Draco at this moment didn’t look like the Dragon Constellation knight from earlier in the slightest.
“There is a field outside the right hall where you’re going to be tested on your uniform” Syzen gestured.
“Beware of the words, be tested” he smiled a little.
Matthew turned to Quebec and called him.
“The man from earlier who was with Xara, where is he again?” He pointed the change out to his customer when he saw that the man was gone from where he was before.
"Mmmmmm, that may or may not work. Do you have a really big open field that is more that fifty kilometers across? I have a point to prove," Cat said placing the arrow back in her quiver
(Oof I've nothing to do now XD)
(We’ll see, we’ll see :D)

(Haha)
Lata nearly jumped in surprise at the sight of the man playing with a dog in her house. She would have remembered getting a dog if she had one. If he didn't own it already, perhaps Draco could keep him. It made sense, seeing as he liked it so much. "Is he yours…? Not that I mind him."
The girl knelt down to look at the small dog. She wasn't very good at identifying breeds, but it was still cute.
“Head outside, take a right, there’s an open field you can use” he gestured with his hand as he spoke.
(Maybe you can deliver the envelope to Syzen?)
“Yep, I’ve had him for two months now. He’s a Welsh Corgi by the way and a very intelligent one as well. Isn’t that right you sweet biscuit?” He played with the dog’s cheeks as the dog barked in joy.
Lata smiled lightly at the nickname. It was cute how stoic seeming character could become… that in a matter of moments. Now would also be a bad moment to say that she usually prefered cats. She loved dogs, sure, but due to how she grew up, cats were often around. "What did you name him?" she asked. I swear if it's actually Biscuit-
“Head outside, take a right, there’s an open field you can use” he gestured with his hand as he spoke.
"Would like to come out with me so I can give you more pointers about being an archer on the battlefield?" Cat asked going to the door and stopping.
(Still in the same room as earlier; in the building, left hall)
“I named him Oscar” the Draco answered. He picked the small creature up and turned to Lata.
“Ready to go?” Despite his crisp tone, he seemed more friendly when he’s with his pet.
“Unfortunately I couldn’t go with you, I have to stay here and wait for the other Zodiacs” he answered, gently holding his hand up.
"I don't know, you ask me like I care, I just want to watch more fights" Quebec retracted his suit back into his badge.
"I've got more stuff to ask about this little thing.." He raised the badge up and inspected its glimmering gold color and the reflection of his face on it
“I named him Oscar” the Draco answered. He picked the small creature up and turned to Lata.
“Ready to go?” Despite his crisp tone, he seemed more friendly when he’s with his pet.
Lata pursed her lips at his response before picking up her things. "Ready as I'll ever be I suppose," she replied. She gave another look to Draco before stepping onto the front porch. She stood there, waiting, so she could lock the door behind them.
Xara sighed and quickly retraced her steps back to the first room she'd been in. "Er, hi?" She called as she opened the door. "Got a… note…. or something."
Matthew glanced at his as well.
“Same here, it might something much more than meets the eye” he mentioned.
Draco opened the door and threw his badge up. When it was mid-air, the badge dispersed to wings and were on Draco’s body.
“Hold on tight” he said to Lata as he held her by her wrists and flew up with Oscar in his chest plate.
Syzen raised a brow.
“Who was it from?”
Weird… who would deliver an envelope at this time
“Unfortunately I couldn’t go with you, I have to stay here and wait for the other Zodiacs” he answered, gently holding his hand up.
"Then send someone with me so that they can report back to you about it. Because this is info that can be useful for future problems, should they arise," Cat waited by the door, Plag came and jumped onto her shoulders.
“Acknowledged…” Syzen closed his eyes and started communicating mentally with someone.
“He is waiting outside, please proceed” he nodded as he spoke and opened his eyes.
"Er…" she handed him the letter. "Just read it," she suggested.
“Acknowledged…” Syzen closed his eyes and started communicating mentally with someone.
“He is waiting outside, please proceed” he nodded as he spoke and opened his eyes.
Cat walked out with the bow still in her hand and began heading to the outside again. She was examining the bow some more.
(Quick question, is the bow a recurve? English long? Compound? Yumi? Takedown? Reflex? Traditional? Crossbow? Depending on the type will depend on how it shoots, so it's important.)
Draco opened the door and threw his badge up. When it was mid-air, the badge dispersed to wings and were on Draco’s body.
“Hold on tight” he said to Lata as he held her by her wrists and flew up with Oscar in his chest plate.
Lata had attempted to take her wrists back when Draco had first taken them, but as soon as they were airborne, the teen froze. There was no way she was going to make such a stupid decision and thus, fall to her death. It irritated her beyond belief with how he was just letting her hang there as he flew. Some royal escort this was. She could only imagine how sore her wrists would be by the end of this trip. At least the view was nice.
This invitation to change the world better be worth it…
Syzen opened the envelope and started reading through it. With that, he gave a smile as he burned the letter with his hand.
“Great… you can go. Thank you for the letter” he ended.
(A recurve bow, sorry I didn’t write that down)
Upon arriving outside, Cat would see a figure standing by the door and fidgeting with an arrow shaped badge.
“Cat, right?” He asked when she came into sight.
Draco looked down and came a throne-like seat with locks and ropes attached to them. He gently set Lata down on the seat which was stably in an upright position. Draco locked the ropes to his armor as the flight continued, now with Lata seated.
“Sorry, I forgot I was given that” the Dragon constellation apologized with a small laugh as they continued towards the kingdom.
