"YOUR HIGHNESS PLEASE!"
It was late spring and the sun was high in the sky, a faint breeze blew past and seemed to create the perfect day.
It sure as hell wasn't peaceful though.
"Nicholas, I have sent many of my men to watch over your village before, each time they have stayed there for up to months at a time and nothing has happened." The dual-colour haired prince reasoned with the farmer as he walked over to his pure white horse, guards in tow.
"Yes, I know that your guards haven't seen anything when they come, but you don't understand! This dragon, this beast, it's smarter than you think! It knows that they're there, and it knows not to strike, but as soon as the troupe is gone..." he trailed off and looked away, "And it's not just that, our livestock isn't the only thing on the line anymore!"
"I know that you have concerns, and I believe you when you say that there is some reason for them, but I also know that-"
"People have gone missing!" The man cut him off, immediately covering his mouth in his sudden realization.
"I-I'm sorry your majesty, I d-didn't mean t-to interrupt..." he knelt down on one knee and lowered his head, seeming to be asking for forgiveness.
The Prince didn't say anything though, but his expression said it all. It had changed from mildly irritated to real shock and worry. He looked down and let his hair cover his eyes as he let his mind enter deep thought.
It was silent until a guard spoke up,
"Prince Todoroki, what do you suggest we do?"
"..." he looked up at the guards, his eyes gleaming in the sunlight.
"Escort Nicholas here to the castle, we will discuss matters on what we shall do once we're all there. In the meantime though, I have someone I need to find." He instructed them and mounted his horse, giving it a small kick and riding off away from them.

"KIRISHIMA! PUT ME DOWN YOU SCALY SON OF A BITCH!" A certain ash-blonde screamed, kicking his legs wildly in a blind rage.
"Are you SURE you want me to put you down?" The red dragon playfully growled as his wings began flapping, lifting them off the ground.
"I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU-" His threat was cut short as the two rocketed into the sky, the short-tempered man being pulled up by his hood, "KIIIIRIIIIISHIIIIIMAAAAAAAAAAA!"
The dragon only let out a gruff chuckle, well, the closest to a chuckle that he could manage. He began flying back to their camp with his extremely pissed trainer dangling from his jaws.
The two of them had just finished going to town and buying some needed food and other resources. The only things that they had brought back though were a few leather hides and a bag of apples. This was because they got thrown out after burning an armory to the ground. The man working there had told Katsuki that he wasn't sure if he could handle the sword that was picked out.
His reasoning wasn't exactly wrong though, the sword was roughly twice his size.
As they arrived back at their camp, Katsuki was pouting with his arms crossed,
"I hate you..." he muttered as he was set down.
Smoke gathered in the air around the dragon as he shifted into the redhead that Katsuki was all too familiar with.
"Awww c'mon, you know you love me!" Kirishima joked and lightly punched his shoulder, making him even madder.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP SHITTY HAIR!" He shouted, "I'LL KILL Y-" he was cut off by someone clearing their throat behind him.
"Katsuki, it's been awhile."
"What do you want you half and half bastard?"
