[OPEN]
Hazme yawned sleepily as she waited for her meal to cook. There was a time when she would eat her meat raw (or sometimes burnt when she overdid things while hunting), but ever since living with elves and such she had developed a taste for cooked food. Meat was still a staple, but she didn't mind a few taters with her cow. That day she was having a couple of deer cooked with berries and taters under a mound of hot rocks. Hazme curled beside her makeshift oven, her long tail lazily swatting bugs as she occasionally breathed fire on the mound. Already she could smell the delicious deer, but it would still take a little while for it to be cooked.

Krake walked through the forest, his human form displayed openly. His crimson eyes sweeped the shrubs as his sensitive nose picked up the scent of freshly cooking meat.
His stomach grumbled and his ears perked. He, being a member of the Queens Army, didnt want to be sprung on by an enemy. With hope, it would be a caravan cooking some meat on a spit.
Krake broke the treeline, coming to a clearing where another dragon laid sleepily on the ground. He could see a mound of red-hot rocks, presumably over the delicious smelling venison.
He grunted and placed a foot farther out, getting into a defensive stance lest the other dragon attack.

Hazme barely stirred when the stranger came within sight. She was not at all threatened by his presence, but when he took a stance she lifted her head and peered at him. At first she thought he was human or an elf, but when she stopped to smell him she realized he was another dragon. Hazme snorted, fire shooting from her nostrils.
"Who are you and what brings you here?" she snapped. As someone who had grown up where food was scarce, Hazme was selfish when it came to food. She didn't like it that another dragon was around when she was about to eat.

Krake snorted, his wings settling behind him. Another territorial dragon who was more concerned with a meal than saying hello.
"Hn. I was hoping to cop a meal from some stupid humans, but all I see is a rude dragon."
He shoved his hands into his pockets, crimson eyes glaring icily at the other dragon. If she got violent he could transform. He would tower over her anyway.

Hazme slowly rose and faced the stranger.. Her wings folded and unfolded, and smoke began to rise from her nostrils. A snake rattling its tail. Hazme certainly didn't like food being taken from her.
To a human a show of aggression would be enough to scare them away, but to a dragon that would be less effective. Instead she shifted and met his glare with her own as she walked up to him. Hands on her hips, she drawled in his face, "Oh? So, do you plan on taking food from me?"

Krake scowled darkly. This wretch was taking up too much of his personal space. "Back off wench. I wouldn't take a hunded gold coins from you."
He snorted and spread his wings a little bit farther-giving the impression that he was larger. He bared his fangs and snarled, hoping she would back away. She was just another diva who thought she was better than every other person on the planet. He felt like pushing her into the face of Guy Fawkes and seeing how long she would last with her prissy act.

Ruffled, Hazme stubbornly stayed as she was until she realized that he had made it quite clear that he didn't want anything to do with her. That fact calmed her down quite quickly. "Pff. See who's being rude now." she muttered, although she leaned back away from him. If he was puffing up in defense, then she had little to fear from him attacking. Nevertheless, she watched him from the corner of her eye as she turned away before finally disregarding him and walking back to her meal.

Rude? Rude! RUDE?! She'd ruined his pride enough. He hissed at her and grabbed her shoulder.
"How dare you say that to me!" He should transform and stomp on her! And her meal!
Claws began forming on his fingers, and his red eyes shifted to cat-like slits.

Hazme was surprised to be grabbed by someone she'd already dismissed as harmless, and thus she stared at the other dragon. He was showing signs of pure aggression. She glanced at her shoulder when she felt the claws trying to bore into her skin--or should she say hide--and wasn't surprised to see them actually piercing her, although not deep enough to draw blood. Unusual, considering her ability. Well, only dragon claws and magical human weapons could harm her.
She turned back to him and looked at him darkly as her eyes turned yellow. How dare he say that after insulting her first. "What, do you want me to apologize?"

Krake snarled again, his crimson eyes narrowing. "I'd rather have you learn some manners." He dug his claws in a bit deeper and locked his red with her yellow. Maybe she would finally get the message and shut the hell up.

For a long moment, Hazme stood silently fuming and as unwilling to back down as a bull. The color of her eyes grew closer to her dragon form's--a bright, fiery yellow. Manners? She could and would say whatever she wanted.
The dragoness tilted her head back, as if to sneeze or look down at him. And then she smashed her thick skulled, tough, hide-protected forehead onto his.

A blinding white came over his eyes as she cracked her own cranium into his skull. He fell back, a hand over his forehead, a hand covering the eye she had momentarily blinded.
"You..."
He jumped back and transformed into his true form. He towered over her greatly (he would still be taller even if she had been in her true form as well). His head reached over the tops of his trees and he raised a clawed foot, hoping to impale her on his razor sharp talons.

Hazme took a moment to touch her shoulder as he transformed. Even without looking, she could tell she was bleeding. Normally she could take an axe to the same spot and only buckle from the impact, but against another dragon...
She looked up at him, her eyes narrowing. He was huge. Even in dragon standards. With her current size a single strike would be enough to seriously injure her. Hazme shifted into her true form with a roar, ignoring his talons as she herself swiped hers towards his chest.

Krake snarled in delight as she transformed. With luck, he could get a good fight. But when she crouched in her true form, he remembered that she was a fraction of his size.
Hissing slightly as the claws lightly grazed his chest scales, Krake took a mighty sweep of his wings and shot up into the air. He smirked as the gust of wind blew across the clearing. His wings alone could blow over the smaller red dragon.

Hazme watched as the other dragon shot up. She was smaller, but...maybe she could turn that into an advantage. She supposed he'd never had to fly in tight circles around and under mountain cliffs while in the strong winds of high altitudes before. While still grounded, she shot a jet of fire up after him and then leapt into the air as well.
