A shadow fell over the clear waters of the beach of the island. A earsplitting roar drowned out the sort of meldic tones of the sirens who lived a few miles from the large island. A tilt of pure white wings brought her in a spiral down to the sandy beach. She landed sparying snad in all directions. She streached out like a large scaley cat and folded her winds.

Calws parked the sand as she moved along the streach of beach. Stopping only once she reached a large slat of rock and she laid down across it. Head reasted on the warm rock and her eyes were closed. At all looks she seemed to me asleep though she wasn't. She could sense someone comming and she wanted to be sure of who it was and so she made sure to be on the far side of the island the side away from the main lnd. On the south side you can see the coast of the main lnd and if you looked close enough you could see those of the clan who lived there moving about.

Rishka lifted her lovely white head blue eyes opened at the sound of hooves on the stone. A warming hiss was given. She could tell know that Midnight was one and the pesky elemntal Unicorn th other. She stoode and looked down at the green riddled beast. A snort was given and steam produced from her nostrals as would her being a water dragon and all. Forest simply nodded and stepped aside for her knowing full well she didn't like him.

Striding out into veiw she lifted her head seeign Midnight. "What has brought you to disrupt my sleep", she hissed. It wasn't her being mean but she was simply that way all the time. "Midnight I did not call for you so why are you here", she snapped blue eyes on him green and yellow played on her white scales from the sun and leaves above Her tail twitched ratehr like an irritated cats would.

Rishka snorted loudly at him and circled him on the shelf of war rock her long scalled tail still twitched like a cats as she did so. Finally she stopped and lifted her lovely head to its full height looking at him. "I'm not sure I want to give this one up", she said smuggly just being diffiult to be difficult. She waited to see what he would do to try and change her mind she did love playing games with others after all.

Riska snorted the stems she snorted once more moreot of a sigh in her fashion. "You take the fun out of things", she informed him. Her slim yet bulky frame stopped near the cave entrance. "Well come in", she said simply. Wings tight at her saide and tail swaying esyily she went inside the large cavern and down two other caves where a large collection of treeasures or the sea sat a whole in the ceiling reflected off the silvers and stoens and shells and things. In the center of the cave on a stone willar stood a crystal bottle with the elixar in it. She stood before him keeping the elixar out of sight. "But you know how I am you must solve a riddle first. You ready", she asked him blue eyes entent on the black dragon.

Rishka just smiled at his frustration. She loved toying with others no matter what danger it put her in. It was her fancy of life. So she spoke. Her voice a as breath taking as the sea.

"Very few friends I have, renowned am not,
Concealed and shielded behind much, difficult to spot.
I am like bug and sickness; I am contagious not always wanted,
Though I am small, they fear me greatly, for I might leave them haunted.
At times I am tough to keep, my master forced to let me free,
Then I rupture and soar around and they converse regarding me.
I may be friend or foe, servant or teacher,
I am like a bird; I want to be free creature.
What am I?"

Now she awaited his answer.

Rishks nodded slimply and stood aside. "Very well", she said. Something like the sound of waves came from her it was a sort of purr of her's. She lifted her head and stepped form the cavern and headed out of the cave. He would not find her trasurs anything worth stealing. They were sea junk really. Once outside she spread her greats wings and reared up onm her hind quarters and spiraled up to the ledge above the cave and crouched down low on it eyes on the entrance of the cave.
