There realy is no designated area for hunting in the mountains, but certain areas are popular like at the base and near the third resting area's. There's no civilization out here, and the only life out here are critters, deer and bears. Perhaps some moose as well, but this is the wild, so be cautious as not all creatures are cowardly.

Ah, morning. Some people love it, some people hate it, but even the early-birds would be having reservations about this particular start to the day. Ominous grey clouds where swirling above an already cold and damp world bringing the promise of rain. It had already been raining the night before, and by the look of the sky, the heavens weren’t going to relent and where preparing something nasty for later.
A large deer herd however seemed oblivious to the cold, or where just doing their best to ignore it. They’d risked leaving the woodlands to graze on a wide stretch of dewy grass and for now, all seemed peaceful. Soundlessly something big exploded through the clouds, dropping at a tremendous speed, and by the time the frightened deer spotted it and darted frantically towards the safety of the tree line the creature was already dangerously close and changing its trajectory.
It spread its leathery wings right before impact and – thud! - It cashed into a straggling doe with a tremendous force and with a snap of its long jaws, the little life was extinguished. Satisfied, the blue dragon separated itself from its hunt and shook its head to recover, then to assert dominance over the area and roared violently in the direction of the trees causing a mass scurrying for cover by predator and prey alike.
In annoyance she gave another secondary shake in a vain attempt to get rid of the copious amounts of water she’d been flying through amongst the clouds and possibly dry off. She didn’t like the cold as a rule, much less being wet on a freezing day, but she had no choice but to put it behind her, so, instead, her attention turned once again to food.

Vincent had aimed his bow at the deer, Pationce is the key. Wait for the right moment. He had been tracking these deer for a while and had heard a rumor that something was out here that wasn't human. He didn't doubt the rumors but was more concerned with getting one of the deer so he could fill his empty belly.
Suddenly, a large dragon came flying out of the sky. Scattering the deer and killing the one he had been aiming at. The cigar in his mouth fell to the ground as his mouth fell wide open. He aimed his arrow higher at the beasts neck. HE wouldn't let this thing get away. Nothing would get away from him again. This dragon was going to die. He fired one arrow at the dragon's neck, and sent a second arrow after it moments later. "Die beast!" He yelled as he knocked another arrow to the bow.

The first arrow had the misfortune of hitting square in the centre on one of the dragon’s scales and ricocheting off, leaving a nasty dent and probably bruising later, but that was really the extent. As the creatures head snapped up in surprise and anger the second one found its mark on her chest, the tip lodging itself between two scales. Because of the muscle thickness, it didn’t go too far, but it looked quite obviously painful.
The blue dragon gave an angry roar, rising instinctively to tackle the threat that had presented itself. With a beat of her wings, she was once more airborne. The attacker was, regrettably for the foliage, quite well hidden so after a second of frantic searching she gave up and let loose a great tongue of flame to backburn a circle behind the attacker and flush him out onto a level playing field.

Mya launched in front of the heavy fire, her legs unstable as she threw her shield out to protect the man. All of her force, aimed into the spiral of fire that bared upon the both of them. Her breathing unsteady, she held up with all her might against the dragons fire. Right up until the end, she held her ground.
After the flame disappeared into a distant heat, she keeled over. Her legs were still shivering from the pain. Never had she attempted something so deliberately stupid. She just hoped she was on the right side of this battle.
Mya grabbed the shield and used it to hoist her up, then she was crouching. She could only wait for the dragons next move. She eyed it wearily, but all she could focus on was muddy colored sky.

Tyranus had been wandering through the dwarven cities in search of worthy opponents where he had found none. Mostly what he found was a large population of worthless drunks that fancied themselves powerful. Tyranus knew power, it called to him and urged him on to seek and tame it. Upon entering this place he felt power like the ocean waves crashing on rocks. So amazing was this creature, he stared in awe as flame spewed from the mouth raging its way to the surface to incinerate a worthless person. But then it was blocked and this saddened Tyranus, this meant that people intended to harm this creature, or worse, protect the weak. He would not stand for this, he drew his blade and began marching upon the battle ground and then stopped. He kept a small distance, about ten yards, and let the wind stirred up from the dragon's beating wings brush his skin and flutter his cape. He waited; he wished to see the dragon kill this traitor to humanity. If that person could not protect himself then death was the only option.

Vincent was glad someone had come to help, but he still didn't like the fact that she did help him. Made him look weak. He aimed again at the dragon, but this time, he added some weird powder, that a merchant had given him, to the arrow. The arrow would explode on contact with most form's of heat, weather the beast blew fire at the arrow, or the arrow struck its mark, Vince knew how hot the body of a dragon was, or at least he thought he knew, he then moved away from the spot he was at and while he moved, he sent a folly of arrows at teh dragon, from various directions. Even though the area around him was still aflame, he could manuever through what was left of the underbrush.

((Don't worry Jarad, I won't kill your character. I say this only because I believe it might have crossed your mind. Not only that but the rules won't let me kill without consent.))
Tyranus did not like this move at all. Not only cowardly but stupid as well; he did not use his life to help his savior but to damn her. He would pay for this and that woman would live, he would make sure of this. Tyranus began to move, or rather march towards them with sword gripped tightly and malice burning like the pits of hell in his eyes. Tyranus pointed his blade at Vincent and for some reason it appeared as though his blade had fresh blood on it, as if marking his demise.

Although the dragon had never encountered an exploding powder before, she knew well the pain of an arrow through the wing, as well as the obvious other problems that followed. Backwinging frantically she avoided the worst, but overlooked the last one which cashed into her stomach and exploded on contact.
The blow sent her reeling with a loud high pitched roar of pain, almost clean knocking her out of the sky. Thankfully, dragons scales where some percentage fire retardant so they didn’t crisp themselves accidentally, but the explosion was another matter. A section of her left wing has been blown off, just enough to stay airborne, but she still had no choice but to meet them all on the ground.
She creature landed heavily on the ground, glanced at the damage then lowered its head defensively and arching its back with a snarl. ”What do you want?” she demanded angrily. It was a strategic move more than anything. Once she knew what they where after they'd be easier to deal with.

((To make things easier, i'll comment on a way to dodge each of Tyranus' attacks thus I can not get carried away and make it impossible to live. I have done this before so it is a precaution for me not you entirely, I tend get wrapped up in killing))
Tyranus was not looking for peace, this was his moment, his chance to strike. They were distracted and so he began to charge at Vincent his eyes focused on him so intensly they could burn through his body."I will not permit the weak to take advantage of the mighty!"Tyranus' deep throaty voice echoed through the hunting ground as he charged with more fury in every step and with sword raised he threw the first slash. It was a downward strike designed to cut Vincent sideways from the top of his shoulder. Dodging it would be simple for the archer if he could react fast enough.

"YOur death!" Vincent called out as he caually blocked the dwarf's blade with his own. The dwarf had been loud enough for Vincent to react and block. Vincent's glare that he gave the dwarf was as dark as death. "You are no human, and thus you are sentenced to death." He said in an evil voice as he started to swing his blade in quick succesion, easy to block, but Vincent's stamina was great and he could go at this for a while. Though, a dwarf could probably do the same. "Vincent the hunter is not a merely weak human." HE growled at the man. Vincent had made a name for himself for being a very ruthless and heartless hunter.

Well, at least he was honest? Athura was about to react, but the second individual got there first. As far as she saw it, if he was attacking that infernal archer too, he was at least a temporary ally until she found out more.
Bracing herself her jaws opened again and a new lot of flame came out, but this one was not as wide and targeted specifically at Vincent. Hopefully, with his back turned and the other man blocking his escape he’d be quickly roasted, and therefore no longer be an issue.

((DUDE I AM HUMAN! LOLLER CANNONS!))
This only made Tyranus more livid, if it was possible, and almost didn't jump out of the way of the molten ball coming towards them. Tyranus jumped out of the way by doing a back flip and regaining his balance readying himself for another strike. He was very interested as to how the archer planned to dodge the flames and Tyranus' attacks."My lady dragon, aim just to the right of us and I will attempt to steer him in the direction of the flame each time. Otherwise you may end up getting both of us killed!"
