Dragons: Wilderness/Town (Teens/Adults)

Nick nodded, sitting down with Merida. "Would you like to do this one? Since I did walking?" Nick asked Inimica, wondering if she wanted to help teach Merida.

"Sure, most people start out with Momma and Dadda, though you don't have to since you're older, try Nick." Inimica said it slowly so Merida would be able to hear how it was pronounced.

Merida listened carefully. "N.. Nee-k?" She asked, though it didn't sound right to her. After pronouncing it over and over, she finally got it. "Nick?"

Inimica clapped joyously, "Wonderful, you got it!" She called, "Now for something a little harder, In-im-i-ca." She separated the word into syllables to help Merida piece them together.

Nick smiled as he watched them. "Een-eem-e-ca." Merida repeated before piecing them together. "Inimica." She said slowly, smiling brightly.

"Amazing, you learn so fast!" Inimica said, congratulating Merida.

Merida smiled, looking to Nick then Inimica, proud of herself. She understood what they said, it was saying them and putting them into a sentence she found hard.

Inimica caught onto her confusion, "Try, thank you Inimica and Nick." She said, phrasing what she thought Merida wanted to say.

Merida though it over in her head. "Thank.. you.. Inimica.. and.. Nick." She said, one word at a time. She had yet to try and feed emotion into her words, but this was very good for now.

Inimica smiled happily "You're doing wonderfully. Soon you'll be talking and walking just like everyone else." inimica told her.

Nick smiled, Merida smiling also. "Come on, you must be tired. Get some rest." He said, having laid a few coats on the floor for her. "Tired?" Merida asked, seeming confused. "Yes, like.. sleepy." Nick said, making a sleeping action, Merida nodding, laying where she was told, Nick pulling one of the coats over her like a blanket.

Inimica watched Nick as he made Merida comfortable. She had never resided in a female body before and wondered what it might be like, Inimica decided to wait until Merida was in a deep sleep to poses her.

Nick sat next to Merida, stroking her hair slightly, it helping her settle to go to sleep.

'Would you mind telling me when she's gone to sleep?' Inimica asked Nick, she couldn't wait to have a body again.

Nick nodded to Inimica, watching Merida for signs of being asleep. Once he knew she was, he nodded again to Inimica, though she'd have to be ready to fight for a body, Merida wasn't going to be an easy target. She'd spent long enough trapped in a book, and then a body, and now she was free. She wasn't loosing her freedom that easily again.

Inimica enterred Meida's dream, labeling herself as a guest rather than a host, Merida's mind would construct the scene around them. "Merida!?" Inimica called looking around the empty space.

Merida's dream consisted of mainly nothing but forests, a lot of them with prehistoric plants. Merida appeared as mainly a form of purple light, but she had a human outline.

Inimica caught onto the light, "Is that you Merida?" Inimica asked her. "This is a very beautiful forest." Inimica looked around at all the plants.

Merida nodded. "Home." She said. This was the time period that she had been trapped in. She glanced around, a group of angry shamans chasing after her, the ones which had trapped her in the book. "Run." She told Inimica, Merida had already taken off.

Inimica followed her, what would happen if the shaman's got Merida while Inimica was inside her head? She wondered.

Merida moved the particles of like in her, reshaping herself into a large dragon, roaring closely to the shaman, stunning them, returning to the human figure, continuing to run, she climbing through thorns she knew the shaman would cross because of 'cursed lands' she had made up.

Inimica followed, "That was very impressive, are you able to do that in real life?" that had been one of the downfalls of possessing Hugh, he was part dragon.

Merida shook her head, she was a solid form in reality, unable to shift around. "H-.. How did.. you get.. here?" She asked.

"I don't have a solid form, I rather enjoy the danger of entering another's dreams." Inimica said.

Merida nodded lightly, sitting down with a sigh. Glad she could relax.
