Do You Dare? (Green Xena's Maiden Flight)

[Houka Ryuu]

IC Date: December 25, 2012
IC Time: 10 AM
IC Setting: It had been snowing on the 24th of December and now it's a beautiful classic example of a White Christmas. It is chilly with everyone's breath showing as a puff of smoke as they exhale.

Green Xena
Xena's hide had been glowing for a couple of days now. But unlike Lovely who had been flirtatious with the male flits around the weyr, Xena had been fractious and would snap at any male who dared approach her. She had opted to sleep away from Hers and the others the night before. When she had awaken the next day, she knew that her time has come. With a pump of her wings, she flew towards the feeding grounds in search of something that will satisfy her hunger.

Instinct has already taken over her and she pounced on a big fat chicken quick as a snake and clamped her mouth on the chicken's neck. Blood spurted and Xena tasted the delicious juice going down her throat. She was tempted to take a piece of the meat but she knew that she couldn't do that. Still, she had woken up hungry and her hunger had not yet been satiated. After drinking all the blood that she could from the chicken, she dropped the carcass and looked around for her next victim. This time, she spied a wild hare. With a hop and a bound, Xena had her mouth clamped on the hare's neck. As with the chicken, Xena drained all of the blood that she could from the hare. And now, she her hunger was satisfied. With a pump of her wings, she launched herself up into the sky above the feeding grounds.

She circled around giving a shrill cry of challenge to call the males to her. Daring them to answer her mating call. And also daring them to ignore her call. She will not be denied her males! Again she circled around above the feeding grounds, gliding on the air currents as she waited to see who'll answer her challenge.

Lordly squawked as he flew out of S'tor's Weyr. The young bronze was really just now taking an interest in females and while golds were the most important, greens were good for practice.

Blood. Oh yes. He needed blood, diving from the sky onto one of the innocent chickens, claiming the blood it held before rising towards the green. She was pretty enough...and with the glow to her hide, any female would be pretty, even one that was otherwise hideous. She would definitely do...to 'practice' on, that was. He sent a crooning sound her way to make sure she was aware of his presence. She should be honored that a bronze had deigned to join her flight!

As Vincent the blue matured, he noticed that suddenly, the females were of interest to him. He crooned at the greens, and attempted to suck up to the golds, but it wasn't until he heard a green's challenging bugle that he realized, this is how you win a female. Vincent growled back, crawled out of a small hole in the weyrbowl wall.

Xena was calling, her shining green hide literally sparkling in contrast to the brilliant white snow lining the grounds. Vincent launched himself into the air and spiraled down to where she was waiting. He crooned towards her, already trying to win her attention away from the bronze that arrived first.

But, before Vincent could give Chase, he folded his wings, dropping down and landing on a rabbit. He bit into the neck, snapping its spine, and greedily slurped at the blood. He teased a small chunk of flesh from the beast, and swallowed, hungry for more, but his instincts yelled at him, telling him not to do that. He snorted, and yielded, finding the single hare to be enough as he took to the sky again and rose to meet the green and her other suitor.

Green Xena
Xena was ecstatic when she saw a bronze join the flight. After the bronze, a blue joined as well. She was disappointed that there weren't more males to pick from. And since she was itching to fly out of there, she didn't care that there were only two currently chasing after her. If any other males want to join, they are more than welcome to do so.

Xena bugled a challenge as she flipped to switch direction away from the feeding grounds, away from any place that reminded her of the weyr. She wanted to know if the males will still follow after her even if there'll be the risk of exposure to the public. She flew steadfastly but fast enough to leave the males behind.

And when she was far enough away from the weyr, she started to do some fancy flight maneuvers. She did a loop-the-loop, then a twirling spiral up in the air, then a dive bomb towards the ground. And when she felt that she might have expended just a tad more energy than she had planned, she rested on a thermal, gliding lazy spirals. She then looked at the males to see if they can out maneuver her fancy flying.

((OOC: Since nobody is posting a reply. I'm just going to make Xena choose and close this.))
Green Xena
Xena was disappointed when the males didn't seem to want to do some fancy flying to impress her. They still seemed determined to chase after her. And so, without further ado, Xena decided to choose between the two males. And because she felt privileged by the bronze's participation, she chose him as the one to catch her. Folding her wings, she dropped down to where he was, and crooned at him to let him know that she had chosen him as the winner of the flight.
