Chapter 5 A Nice Night. Turns Into A Intresting Day

The day has turned to night. Drake, greta, and drake’s know adopted daughter skyress were able to get inside greta’s house. Greta sighed and fell on top of her couch, finally being able to relax from the long walk and excitement for the day. Except drake, he still had the energy to do pretty much anything, and skyress being too happy to be tired.

“Ahhh~ it's good to be back home” greta said sitting up and taking off her brown coat and scarf, leaving just her white shirt underneath and pants.

Drake saw a racket next to the door. He placed skyress on the floor much to her unpleasure wanting to stay being carried by him, took off his sweater and placing it on the racket, leaving his black tank top and pants. He took off his backpack and his leather gloves. And placed them next to the couch and finally taking a seat as well “You got that right” agreeing with her.

Skyress took off her pink dirty sweater, putting it next to drake’s pack, jumping up to the couch and sat on drake’s lap wanting to stay close to him.

Greta looked at drake. Her eyes staring at his muscles that were hidden behind his sweater. Getting a good look at them “Holy moly! He’s ripped! Their not huge but packed nicely and fitting his body perfectly” and every time he moved his muscles they would flex showing off how powerful they could be, and greta was having inappropriate thoughts in her head the more she looked.

She was so lost, she didn’t hear skyress speaking to her but was able to focus when she felt someone tapping her leg. She looked to see skyress. She smiled at her “Is there something you need skyress”

Skyress nodded “Yes, can you please make me something to eat” then she did something all children can do with a little effort. She did the puppy dog eyes on greta.

It was super effective. And greta had no choice but to do it. “Alright. I’ll just cook the rabbit meat I bought” she got up and walked to the kitchen but stopped. “Do you want anything, drake?”

Drake turned his head around to face greta “Nah. I’m good gret” greta liked it when drake used his nickname for her.

“Ok” she then looked to skyress “I’ll call you when I'm done” and walked into the kitchen.

While greta was cooking the rabbit meat drake got off the couch and went through his pack, pulling out the clothes he brought with him. Skyress got curious and looked to see what drake was doing.

She then asked drake a few questions “Um. Dad” drake turned to her “What are you doing?

Drake pulled out a pair of sweatpants and a white tank top “I haven’t bathe since I got here so I'm going to take a bath” he grabbed his clothes and went off but stopped remembering something. He turned and looked at skyress “Why don’t you come and join me?”

Skyress blushed and looked away not understanding what drake said “W-what do you mean, I can’t bath with you” she said nervously.

Dracule raised an eyebrow confused “What are you talking about?” skyress looked back at drake “What’s wrong with taking a bath with your dad?”

Skyress looked at drake with wide eyes “He’s right. I’m his daughter know, so it’s fine to take baths as family members” skyress smiled happy that her life was changing for the better and it was all thanks to meeting drake. “Your right. There's nothing wrong with that”

Skyress walked with drake around the house they were able to find the bathroom. They got inside and took off their clothes. Drake turned on the tub it was pretty big, big enough to fit the both of them. When the water got high enough they both got in. The water was hot at first but warmed up to their bodies.

Drake placed a big rag around his private part just incase. They both went to cleaning them self off, messing around a bit like splashing water at each other and seeing who can stay underwater the longest. Drake was cleaning skyresses head while telling her about himself and the adventures he went on.

Right know he was telling her about one of the fights he gotten into back on earth “So then he starts throwing knifes at me real fast, each knife flying right at me but I was able to dodge every single one”

Skyress was fascinated by drake’s story “He’s done so many things in his life” “Did you beat him?” skyress asked.

Drake smiled widely “Heck yeah I did! It was a hard fight but in the end I prevailed” drake then grabbed a shampoo bottle “Hmm, so they not only clean themselves with soap, but also wash their fur with shampoo. This world is pretty much the same as mine, well except all the different creatures and animals” drake squirted a good amount on her head and started to clean her head and neck fur and feathers.

Skyress was liking the stories drake was telling her and thought about the adventures he would take her “I can’t wait to go around equestria with drake

Once they were done washing themselves, they both hopped out. Drake helped dry skyress off, and while they were doing that greta was cooking the rabbit meat for skyress.

But while she was doing that, she was also thinking about what her life is going to be like with dracule. “I can’t believe everything that’s happened in just one day. First meeting a handsome other worldly being, getting to know him, seeing how dangerous he was to make two guards faint from fear, how strong he was to take down a griffon much bigger than him or bigger than any normal griffon male!

Greta sighed lovingly “He’s so great, I might be the luckiest griffon in the world” greta smiled but then jumped in surprise from a familiar voice behind her.

“Lucky? What are you talking about gret?” greta hide her face away. She looked to see drake and skyress looking cleaner than before.

She waved her hand at drake “Oh! Nothing that would concern you” she went back to cooking trying to act reasonable.

“Huh...” she heard him walking towards the table “So is the food almost done because this little griffons stomach won’t stop growling”

Skyress made a fake gasp sound “Hey it's not my fault that I haven’t eaten in a while”

Greta laughed at their little banter “They really are starting to act like father and child” greta was done cooking the meat and placed it on a plate for skyress “Alright” she turned around and placed the cooked food in front of skyress “Here you go. Eat up"

Drake chuckled at greta, then covered his mouth from laughing at skyress for making such a funny face. “Oh man, she really was hungry

Drake chuckled when he saw saliva coming from her mouth. He got up and grabbed a napkin and wiped her face “Ok. I know your hungry and all but please have some decency”

When drake was done skyress rubbed behind her head and laughed a little “Sorry dad, it’s just I haven’t had cooked food in a long time” and when she said that, she got sad look on her face but that didn’t last long when drake placed a hand on her head, petting her.

Skyress looked up at drake and saw his smile that made her smile “I know kid, but that’s over now. Because for here on out your life will get better” drake bent down on his chair and placed his head on hers. Skyress could feel the warmth from his words “I promise”

Skyress giggled and rubbed her head against drake’s affectingly. She smiled at drake and started to eat her food. Drake laid back on his seat glad to keep skyress happy, that’s when he thought off something he needed to know so he turned to greta and got confused for a second when he saw her looking at him in a weird way.

“Are… you ok there greta?” drake said snapped her out of her little faze.

She dumbly tried to play it smooth “Oh yeah! I’m good” but in her head “Shoot! I got distracted by his fatherly love. And maybe from what he's wearing?

“Alright… I wanted to ask you what's the next place after griffonstone?” not minding the look she was giving before.

Greta thought about it for a second then answered “That would be ponyville” when greta said the name of the place drake had a blank look on his face

pony...ville…” drake didn't want to believe that was the name of the place “Um, greta. That might not be a chance it’s a place species of ponies live, is it”

Greta looked at drake in surprise “Yeah it is, how did you know?!”

Drake turned his head to the right “Oh. lucky guess” but in his head “Holy shit this can’t be real. Are ponies dumb or trying to be funny. Cause it’s not funny at all

Time has past and skyress was done eating her food. For a few minutes they all watched tv in greta’s living room as time go by. Skyress fell asleep so drake and greta called it time to go to bed. Drake picked up skyress, holding her and having her head lay on his shoulder then headed to their respected rooms.

Greta opened her door but stopped and looked at drake that also opened his door “Drake” he stopped and looked at greta “I hope you have good night sleep”

Drake smiled and pushed open his door wider, the window in his room lit up from the moons light that made his eyes glow. Greta stomach fluttered and her heart started to act up again.

Drake smiled “You to gret. Goodnight” and like that drake went inside and closed the door behind him. Greta stood there for a bit and ran inside and jumped into her bed and hugged her pillow moving around and smiled lovingly.

In drake’s room he already put skyress in bed and tucked her in, he also climbed into bed but did go to sleep. Before he left the living room he grabbed his book from his bag so he could read out of it more. He read the book more learning interesting new things that he could do and try out another time. When he read enough he placed the book under the bed and went to sleep, he moved closer to skyress and pulled her in. She was asleep but grabbed on to drake’s shirt and they both went asleep for the night.

It was morning in the greta household with only one person in the house that was up early, and that person, or bird was greta herself. Greta was up and cleaned herself in her bathroom and went into the kitchen to prepare a morning breakfast for her two guest that were still sleeping.

Greta was wearing her nightgown she slept the night in, it was a light green smooth out nightgown that compressed her body perfectly. Showing off her womanly curves, her leg feathers, and her body fur that was messy in a cute way.

The happy griffon female was cooking a normal breakfast of eggs, bacon, and pancakes with syrup in the mix. When she was done she looked at her work and smiled “There we go. All done and ready to be eaten”

Greta headed up stairs to wake drake and skyress up. She wanted drake to see the food she made for them and maybe compliment her on her work “Oh I can’t wait for drake to see and taste my cooking, he’ll see how great a mate I could be”

Greta knocked on the door a few times “Drake! It’s time to get up” she stopped and listed for a response and she got a tired one “yea… give use like 5 more minutes”

Greta smiled at drake’s tired voice “Seems someone didn’t sleep right away last night” greta said “No drake. You can’t stay in bed all day. You and skyress will miss out the food I made today”

She heard a tired sigh behind the door “Ok…. We’ll be down in a minute” greta giggled in victory and went back down to the kitchen. Inside dracule’s room he was getting up and stretching his body a bit for his arms and legs to feel normal.

When he was done doing that drake turned around to wake skyress up but stopped when he saw her sleeping face. “Awww. she looks so cute” skyress cheeks were a bit chubby making her look even more cute.

Drake looked at his daughter a bit longer then decided to wake her up so they can eat and get the day going. Drake moved next to skyress on the bed and shook her body a little to get her waking up “Hey. Skyress. Time to get up”

Drake heard skyress groan and hide under the cover “No…. I don’t want to go to school today”

Drake laughed at her response and shook her more “No can do kid it's time for you to get up. But on the plus side you don’t have to go to school even though you don’t go to school at all”

Skyress peek out from under the covers to look at drake. he smiled at her and she rolled the covers off her so drake could see the tired smiled she gave back.

She sat up but didn’t get off the bed, instead she looked at drake and raised her arms in a reach motion with her hands out “Daddy I'm tired, can you carry me?” skyress asked drake in a childlike tone.

Drake knew skyress wasn’t that much tired to walk herself but he didn’t really care. It’s not bad to spoil your child it’s only how much you spoil them. Drake grabbed and picked up skyress like how a mother carries a tired baby “Okay. Let go down and eat, greta should be waiting for use” drake told skyress and she replied with a hum.

Drake walked up to the door and opened it with one hand while the other held skyress. When he walked out he put his hand on skyress head and rubbed it softly, when he did he heard purring coming from his daughter and thought it was even more cute “Oh my god! she’s purring like a cat! Well she is part cat. I wonder if greta can purr too?

Drake walked down the steps. He would be honest that he was hoping to eat greta’s cooking. When he was getting up he could smell the breakfast she cook and it smelled great. He was able to smell it from a far because of his increased senses.

When he got down the steps he walked inside the kitchen. The scent of the food was strong, and drake was keeping himself from drooling over the tasty smell of the food.

He saw greta sitting on a chair eating some of her food. Drake was surprised to see her in a nightgown and he would be lying if he said she didn’t look attractive. He snuck up behind her and when he was right behind greta he lift two of his fingers and slowly rubbed the back of her neck.

She tensed up from the touch and drake went up to her ear and scratch the back of it. Greta sighed in bliss and started to purr just like skyress did but it was louder, drake smirked at this and moved his hand a bit to the side and greta moved her head where his hand moved “Wow. She’s like pudding in my hands

Drake took his hand away and went to a set skyress on a chair. Greta pouted that drake stopped doing whatever he did.

Drake placed skyress on a chair and sat down next to her. She started to dig into her eggs and pancakes. Drake was about to follow her lead but greta spoke out “Drake. What did you just do?”

He looks towards greta with a confused look on his face “What do you mean?”

Greta pointed at her ear “That thing you did to my ear, what was that?”

Drake grinned that greta didn’t know what he did. “All I did was scratch behind your ear. What? Never felt something like that?”

Greta shook her head “No. it's impossible to make a griffin purr. It surprises me that all it took for you was just scratching my ear” “And it was Amazing~

Drake’s grin was still on his face “Well… not really if you have” drake stuck out his hand in the air like he was raising a sword and for some reason a glowing light was shining on his hand “These Bad Boys”

It was just too funny how greta’s face changed quickly to wonder that dracule just laughed out loud, the same goes for skyress because she also saw greta’s face and laughed with drake.

Greta’s face change to a frown, not liking being made fun of so easily “Just shut it and eat already before your food gets cold” drake and skyress stopped with skyress giggling a bit and went back to eating their delicious breakfast.

When everyone was done eating skyress ran away to the living room to watch tv, greta was going to clean the dishes but drake told her he will do it and wasn’t going to give up so greta went to the living room to read a book she wanted to finish.

After drake was done cleaning the dishes and putting them away. He also went to the living room but what he was doing was something different. You see drake was doing last night was finding and learning new ways of using his powers in other ways. And found something in the book that interest him.

In the book it said ( Using your body is not the only thing you can use in summoning your spiritual elements. You can also place a elemental mark on your weapon to incase or transform your weapon to any element) this fascinated drake and wanted to try this out knowing this could help him in the long run and making him more stronger, knowing he is a master in swords and or other types of weapons.

Dracule was sitting on the couch while his daughter and greta were busy doing what they were doing, he got started on placing the symbol on his weapons and starting with masamune.

First he pick the elements he wanted on his sword. So he picked fire, and lighting, knowing that each one is a really strong element and they can combine to be stronger. Drake put only two elements because in the book the total number was two.

So he focused on the fire element first, putting all of it power on the tip of his pointed and middle fingers. His two fingers caught fire and placed them on the bottom of the blade. The blade started to glow bright red and this got the attention of both skyress and greta because of the red light, when drake was done placing some of the power of the element to masamune the light died down and a mark was now on the blade. It looked like it was engraved to the sword and the symbol looked like a small fire rising up.

Drake raised his sword up to get a better look at it. It look good, really good. He was going to start with lighting next when he was tackled by skyress. He didn’t fall over but was surprised by her actions.

Drake was about to speak when skyress started to talk super fast

“whatwasthatwhatwereyoujustdoingwasthatlightfromyouwhereyouusingyourpowersGASPareyouasuperherowhatpowersdoyouhaveca-”

Drake placed a finger on her beak to silence her and said “What you just saw was me placing something on my sword, yes the light was from me, yes I have power but I'm no superhero I would say I'm more like a anti-hero, and no I can’t give you any super powers. Sorry”

It was so quiet that if a pin dropped you would hear it. Skyress was shocked that drake was able to listen and understand everything she said without catching a breath and kind of sad that she couldn’t get powers also.

Greta was shocked from what drake was doing and from how drake was able to understand what skyress was saying when she couldn’t follow anything she just said because it was to fast.

Greta was able to get her bearing and said “Drake how were you able to understand all that?!”

Drake faced greta and said “My hearing is much better than any animal. I could hear from miles away if I wanted to, or if someone was walking up to the door from outside”

Greta was shocked while skyress was even more impressed of her father's abilities “Cool!!!” skyress than asked drake what other things he could do because he never told them of his powers and abilities. So he told them his spiritual powers and other things like his enhance sight, strength, speed, plus his combat skills.

Greta was speechless by all of this and understood how drake was able to beat golden claw. He was a better fighter than him and more skilled, Golden claw was outclassed.

Skyress was amazed by all of this and thought, she not only have a awesome dad, but a father that’s a expert in combat, a survivor that could live in any dangerous environment, have powers no one in equestria has, and can make anything look cool just by being their. She was so happy should could explode.

Drake smiled at his daughters excited face and thought he could let her watch place the next element “Hey, why don’t you watch me place the next element on my sword. Hmm?” drake didn’t need a reply because right when he said that she quickly sat on his lap to get a closer look.

Drake placed masamune in front of him and skyress. Then started to get to work. He did the same thing but with lighting and instead of fire on his fingers it was yellow lighting sparks.

Skyress looked at the sparks in wonder, she reached out to touch them but drake moved it way from her reach she looked up to see drakes frowning at her “You can’t touch them skyress. On my fingers is live electricity if you touch them you will get electrocuted”

Skyress had a scared looked on her face and said “Ok. Sorry dad” she had a sad look on her face but drake cheered her up “It’s ok skyress. I just wanted to make sure you don’t get hurt from my actions”

Drake rubbed his cheek on the side of her head “I just don’t want you getting hurt” skyress smile return and said “ Thanks dad, your the best!” drake replied with his famous smile “You better believe it” they both laughed together.

Greta was liking how things were lively. She closed her book and sat down next to drake. He turned to greta, she said “Mind if I join”

Drake replied “Sure be my guess”

Drake got back to his work. He placed his fingers next to the fire symbol and put some of his lightning powers on the space, when he was done a lighting symbol was place that had one bolt with two strikes of lighting going either side.

Dracule could feel the power of both fire and lighting coming from masamune. Drake felt like his connection to the sword increased somewhat like a living being inside masamune just like durandal but it was much closer “Hmm. It must be because of how long I've had masamune next to me. And I only just acquired durandal yesterday, but the sword connection to me feels just like masamune. Like having two best friends on either side of me

When drake was done with his thoughts he placed masamune in its scabbed and placed the sword on the side of the couch and grabbed durandal.

Skyress looked at the sword her father grabbed and asked “Hey dad I never asked. What’s that sword you had before and what's this one?” greta thought the same “Yeah same here, do they have names or something?”

Drake smiled and answered their questions “First the sword you both saw was masuamne a katana blade passed down to me from my father, and the sword you both see know is durandal a kingdom blade sword I’ve acquired from a olden ruin”

They both put that information in their heads. Skyress was even more excited at the fact drake had two swords that looked like they could slay anything. And greta was fascinated by the two blades and found herself attracted of how manly drake was showing that made her feel hot inside.

Skyress said “So are you going to do the same thing you did with masamina” drake chuckled at how skyress botched the name “It’s masamune sweetheart, and yes I am”

Drake pulled durandal out of his scabbed, when he did skyress and greta were amazed of how the blade looked. Greta was speechless while skyress was shaking in excitement.

Drake thought what element he would use on this beautiful and deadly weapon and wanted to pick the types that could combine. So he picked wind and ice.

He did the same thing with masuamne and placed the elements on durandal. He first did wind, the mark formed on the middle of the sword. The wind symbol looked like a tornado. He than did ice right next to the wind engraved mark, it took the form of a solid snowflake.

When drake was done he placed durandal back inside it’s scabbed and placed it next to masuamne.

He laid back on the couch with skyress still on his lap moving closer and laying her head on his stomach while greta was sitting next to him and moved closer to him. Greta said “So know that your done with that, what are you going to do know?” greta was thinking in her head “Please say cuddle, Please say cuddle

Drake thought about it. He knew he still had 6 other elements that needed to be placed on a weapon and can’t risk over tasking his swords with two more elements so finding weapons he could use in a fight and place his elements on them would have to be on his list to do in the future.

Drake said “Don’t know. Just got to wait and let life play its role” and right when drake said that he heard footsteps walking towards the house, and it was two sets of paws heading to the door “And it seems like it's going to be interesting”

Drake grabbed skyress and placed her on the couch so he could stand up. He walked towards the door, greta was confused in drake’s sudden actions “Drake? What are you doing?” skyress was also confused.

Drake didn’t say anything back. He could tell from the way they walked they were both griffons, and that one was male while the other was female just by the way each noise they made drake heard.

It didn’t take long for them to get to the door. Everyone in the house heard the knocks from the door. Greta know understanding why drake got up to the door was about to get up herself but drake waved her off signifying he would answer the door.

Skyress moved in a good position on the couch to get a good look at who might be at the door. Drake placed his hand on the doorknob and opened it, to see who would come to greta’s house in the morning, knowing that it couldn’t be intentional because that would be fucking stupid.

When drake opened the door. And just like he thought there were two griffons one being male and female, the males fur was blue and his wings being the same color, his head feathers being blue and white, his eyes were dark blue, he wasn’t to tall about drake’s height. He was wearing a bodyguard type suit that gave a sense that he was probably a bodyguard “No shit brain” drake new just by looking at him, that he was the quick to anger type and found that fun to mess around with.

The females fur was black but the tip of her wings were red, her head feathers were black but around her eyes it was red, she was wearing the same thing the male griffon was wearing but made to fit a girls figure, her eyes yellow, she was the opposite from the male griffon, she seemed calmer and more relaxed.

They both looked at drake in their own way. The male had a disgust and anger look on his face. While the female looked at drake in interest and fascination.

Drake looked at them both in boredom and wanted to get back to relaxing with his daughter and friend “Can I help you two?” drake asked them in his normal tone.

The male griffon huffed “My name is jet stream and this is shade” he pointed towards the know name shade, drake looked a her and she replied with a wink. He just looked back at jet stream because he was not finished “We are here to meet the one that’s sent one of our fighters to the hospital” Jetstream frowned at drake knowing it was him but drake wanted to mess with them for a bit.

Drake smirked at Jetstream “Sorry but we don’t have anyone like that here so you can go fly back to your nest” drake smiled when Jetstream face turned to anger real quick.

He yelled at drake “Don’t play dumb with use you freak. We now it was you that fought gold claw and sent him to the hospital last night. Everyone saw it and even recorded the whole thing”

Drake raised an eyebrow at what Jetstream said and looked to shade. She pulled out her phone and showed him the video of him beating the shit out of gold claw, when he saw the video he started to laugh from seeing himself beat gold claw like he was nothing.

His laughter agitated Jetstream while his companion giggled at how drake was acting. Drake calmed himself down and said “Ok. You got me. Mind tell me why your both here and how you knew where I was?”

Jetstream snorted “That is unclassified information. And we're here for you to come with use”

Drake said “It’s sad that you think that I would listen and do just that”

Jetstream grind his beak in anger. Drake found it interesting and finding it kind of impossible for a bird to do “You will come with use or by force vermin!” he said to drake, shade looked at Jetstream like he was crazy and drake found himself understanding her. Not know what he’s up against.

Dracule’s smirk turned into a smile and walked right up to Jetstream, the closer he got the more menacing the surrounding area grew. Jetstream found himself regretting his action the closer drake got. Shade moved back in fear from what he might do.

Drake was right in front of Jetstream looking at him eye to eye, and even if Jetstream was the same height as drake he felt very small the more drake looked into his eyes. Drake’s bright red eyes making Jetstream freeze in fear, his thoughts clouding his mind “What the hell was I thinking! This is the creature that sent one of our best griffon fighters to the hospital!”

Drake said “Oh. And who’s the poor soul that has the balls to do just that hmm?” drake spoke in a menacing tone that made Jetstream shake in fear while shade was finding herself aroused by drake’s actions.

She was only here because her boss told her to help jet bring the strange creature to him and know here she is finding herself attracted by this mysterious creature that’s turned Jetstream into a scared little child.

Shade was about to speak when someone else intervene “Drake? What’s going on out here?” and out came the door was greta with a white t-shirt instead of a gown and green pajama pants with skyress hiding behind her leg.

Drake backed away from the frighten Jetstream to stand by greta’s side “Oh just talking with these two griffons and getting to know them” drake said in a innocent tone.

Greta looked at shade and then to Jetstream and raised an eyebrow at Jetstream's terrified face. She then look at drake with a questioning gaze “Getting to know them huh?

Drake shrugged his shoulders “What, the dude was asking for it” greta rolled her eyes while skyress giggled at her father's playfulness.

Greta turned and faced shade “May I ask why your both here” greta asked. Shade for some reason finding out drake was already taken, felt jealous.

Shade composed herself and remembered she was here to get her job done “Yes you see me and my companion here was task to bring, umm?” she look at drake, he responded to her “Dracule knight” she then turned back to greta getting back to talking “Mr. knight to our boss to talk to him in a request he wanted to give”

Greta didn’t like this one bit. Finding it all shady “And what would that request be exactly?”

Shade said “I’m sorry but I am unable to tell you. Only our boss knows that and will tell Mr. Knight all about it in person” she then looks to drake wanting to get an answer from him.

Greta was going to ask another question but drake spoke before her “Let me guess, this whole thing is a fighting competition or something right?”

Greta looked at drake and was spectacle that it might be it and looked to shade to see she had a surprised look on her face that confirmed his answer being correct.

Shade said “How did you know?”

Drake rolled his eyes “Please I'm not dumb. Last night gold claw said something about being a champion of some shit, and your dumbass friend that’s still frozen pretty much confirmed it. Talking about gold claw being a fighter, leading to say this whole thing is about me kicking his ass and your boss needing me to fight on his side knowing gold claw wouldn’t be able to because he’s in a hospital right know and might stay there for a few months tops”

Both shade and greta were speechless of how drake thought about the whole thing and piece it together. Skyress looked at her father in amazement “Wow dad, your super smart!” drake said “You got that right” and fist pump his daughter.

Shade sighed that drake found out without trying and her mission going to fail. So she thought when drake said “Alright. Let's go meet this guy then”

Greta, shade, and Jetstream that snapped out of scared trance were shocked at what drake said while skyress was confused at her father's choice.

Greta said “Drake! What are you talking about!?”

Drake turned to greta “It’s exactly like I said. Were going to meet this so called boss and I'm going to enter his little fighting competition”

Shade then cut in “But it’s like what you just said, we were told to bring you and then force you fight for our boss”

Drake had a amused look on his face at what shade said “Tell me something shade. Is this whole fighting thing betted in bits?”

Shade didn’t understand what drake was compiling and answered him with a nod. Drake smiled “Then I'm in. But I'll only come with you if greta and my daughter gets to come with”

Jetstream's eyes shot opened and was about to cancel drake’s request but shade grabbed his beak shut before he could say anything “Yes. They can come has your guest”

Drake clapped his hands together “Cool, I'll be back. Just got to grab our stuff before we go” drake grabbed greta and pulled her back inside the house with skyress leaving the two griffons outside to wait.

Drake started to put his boots on and grab his sweater off the rack, he was about to get his swords when greta said “Drake! What the heck are you thinking. Agreeing to help these strangers without thinking it through”

Drake turned to skyress “Put on your clothes skyress were heading out”

Drake grinned and walked up to skyress and crouched down on one knee and placed his hand on her pink sweater. Inside his body the circle of spiritual elements spin and stopped on the light element. Drake’s hand glowed bright gold and surrounded skyress body, when he was done he took his hand off of skyress, the light went out and her clothes looked like they were brane new!

Skyress looked at her clothes in wide eyes and inspected her entire body, Everything was clean, even her body it felt like she took a bath without water and was baffled.

She look towards drake and said “How did you do that?!”

Drake said “All I did was use one of my elements to clean your cloths and body so you won’t stink later on in the day” skyress was amazed once again by her dads awesomeness and thanked him. Greta was shocked at what drake did but shook it of when she didn’t get an answer from drake that made her a little mad for being ignored.

Drake turned to greta and said “Look I got everything under control and I did think this out. Just like shade said the whole thing is composed in money, betting and winning a fight will earn the winner bits”

Greta slowly nodded following what drake was saying “Yeah..”

Drake finished it off by saying “If I go with them and sign up and win some fights. I would be able to get enough bits so me and skyress can leave griffonstone and travel around a bit without having to worry about money problems”

Greta know understanding why drake was doing this was sad because he was doing this so he could leave and go around equestria and not being able to see him anymore.

She wanted to disagree with drake. Tell him to just stay in griffonstone and live with her. But coulded knowing how drake is and wanting to go around equestria like he told her before so greta said “Alright. Let me just put something on and then we’ll leave”

Drake was putting masamune and durandal on his body “Ok. Me and skyress will wait down here for you” greta nodded and headed up the stairs to her room to change.

Drake and greta sat on the couch and waited for greta. When she came down she was wearing a long sleeves green and brown shirt that had two white strips on the sleeves, and dark blue pants.

They all walked out of the door to see shade and Jetstream waiting for them. Drake walked up to get their attention “Hey. Were ready go”

They both look towards them. Shade said “Good. Just follow use”

Drake saluted playfully “Yes ma'am” he saw skyress tugging on his pants to see her doing the same thing she did in the morning, he smiled and crouched down for her to hold on to his back, skyress yell “Yay” and jumped on drake’s back.

The two griffon females giggled and smiled at the sweet scene while Jetstream rolled his eyes “Can we go already. I want this to be over with”

Drake stood up with skyress on his back “Calm down princess we don’t need you whining all day”

Jetstream was getting madder and started to walk off to their destination. Shade sighed and said “Sorry about him he’s always like this. Come, I'll lead you all to where we’re supposed to go” shade started to walk off with drake, and greta following her.

Drake turned his head to look at skyress and said “No. I’m only doing this for the money we need in the long run. I like to fight but not to much to get into any fight I see. I think that fighting isn't a game you get yourself into to have fun, to me it’s more like a hobby. Wanting to challenge myself and surpass my limits to greater heights!”

Skyress look at drake like he was all knowing teacher finding herself listing every word he said to the heart “WOW” drake said “Yeah. Wow” and laughed at his small joke, she did there.
