Ritzi try to sniff the way, * I think she went that way. but I am really confused so many smells in this woods. It can be good but also fuck my nose up. * He did get a little dirt on his nose and give many little sneeze so it was hard to stop after some time begins to stop. * OMG I hope it was only something tickles in my nose. Well I am sure he want to keep Bella. Tell me the truth if you was not lover whit me would you pic Bella? And I shall tell if you lie.* He smiled at him. He will not get mad he did say yes. he will think it is okay that he would love her if he did not meet him.

Bella looked around trying to get a claw free so he could cut the rope. Bun Kinto and Wam was really good even her fingers was put in bondage so she could not get a claw to cut the rope of. She think she begins to hear someone or something. Maybe the big dragoon was beginning to come out to find out what smell so good. She could not see anything so if the big dragoon would love to get a taste of a Leopard. She actually don't think that she had hear about someone eat Leopard meat. but she maybe taste like ..... What was she thinking about. She was hanging as a pic in a butcher shop and she was thinking what she taste like

"Truthfully I'm not really sure, I don't think so but I haven't known her long enough to say yes or no for sure yet. But for now, we don't have to worry about that. And our first order of business should be to find her. Heh, if we don't then we'd never know." The green dragon handed Ritzi a tissue quickly and kept following the trail they'd been going on. "Bella? Are you here? Bella, come on, it's not a good thing to be out here alone." They were close to the smell, he knew they were almost there, and now he saw the tracks of two others. "Well those two are probably going to be unlucky. Their tracks lead off kind of in the same direction as the dragon's skull collection." And there she was as he stumbled through more of the underbrush.

Bella looked at verdy and Ritzi as they walk to her she trying to say something but it was pretty hard to get a word out of her mouth whit the ball gag in her mouth. she try to say that she need some help to get out of this satiation.

Ritzi smile and whip his nose to make sure that he did not have any dirt inside his nose that could tickle him. He looked up and see Bella hanging form the tree. maybe trying to get loss of the rope. His heart begins to pump a little bit faster he did not know if the monster will came anytime soon or the guys who did this to Bella was around to maybe do the same thing to them.

The first thing Verdy did was take out the gag, the second was take a look at the ropes and see if he could figure out a way to get her down gently. "I... was never a boyscout or anything. Um... do you happen to have a knife in your bag Ritzi? Anything at all? Or at least a bottle of water to wash away some of that hunter smell?" He kept his ears open for any possible sounds of others approaching, or possibly screaming, but so far there was nothing. "Just relax, we'll get you out of this soon." He hoped. If nobody had anything to cut the ropes with, or knew how to untie the knots, then it might take a bit longer. He might even have to try and get the big dragon to come and lend a paw.

Bella Smiled at him as he pulls out the ball gag and did take a deep breath.* Well if you can get one of my paw out I can cut my way out whit my claws.* She did try to move her fingers but it was real hard because they were really tight in bondage.

Ritzi find a bottle of water and begins to wash her cloth clean of the smell* Sorry if I am touching you some wrong places but it have to be done* He did take a look down his bag* no sorry don't have any pocket knife*

Bella was freezing a little bit as her cloth begins to get more wet and she could also fell a could wind running in the woods.* That is okay but can you hurry up I am freezing really much right now.

"Sure thing, that much I can help you out of." He smiled as he managed to free her hands, and looked for any other loose ropes or restraints he could find. "Let's get you out of here and back to the school or at least to my little camp as soon as possible." Though he wouldn't have a good change of clothes there it would still be better than just walking around soaking wet. At least he could use his wings to help shield her from the wind a bit, and hope Ritzi wouldn't be too upset about it.

Bella smiled and use her flexible skills to go up to her feet and begins to cut her ropes of.* Well that is okay you did touch me the guys who did this also graped me places on my buddy I don't want to get touch.* She was getting close to cut her feet lose and graped to the tree so she would not fall down and she gently jump down of it and land on her fee

Ritzi looked in his bag* Well I do have a nice jacket you can get over you but it is maybe a little to small but is is better than nothing. * He gently put it over her shoulder so she could use it as an blanket. He still wounder what they done to her and why they want to do it to her?t.

"At least they're gone and you're okay. So let's get moving, back to the path and back on track to my little place out here. I'm warning you in advance it's nothing too special but it's good enough to keep you safe from the elements and comfortable in the woods." Considering when he first had it the thing was little more than a piece of cloth hanging out from a tree trunk basically, and he'd built it up over time from that, it was really worth bragging about. He sometimes lived very comfortably out there, and other times he found himself in a lot of trouble.

Bella smiled and begins walking whit him and his lover. She really want to see his place out here. She did walk close to him not because she like to be close to him but he did hat a warm hot skin that might going to warm her up.* Well thanks for saving me I was sure that Dragoon was going to get me and eat me. Or hanging out here in the woods all day.* She looked around if she was getting spyed on again. But she could not see any thing.

Ritzi smiled he was really happy to see her too and was so happy that she was not hurt by them. But was still a little bit scared if he was going to get stalked on by the same men that did the thing to Bella.

"He's a very unpredictable dragon. The only thing you can really predict is he wants his way no matter what it might be. That, and he rarely decides to work with anyone. If he does, he has to be in command." It wasn't too much further to get to his place, once you were close it was kind of easy to find and he even had a sign or two to direct people either to it or the school. "Remember, just in case we do happen to run into the big guy, don't say anything unless you have to. And hope he's asleep or at my little home, there's as close to an agreement as possible there, he doesn't attack people at my home."

Bella looked at him and smiled. She could always stay silent she still remember her father sometimes has to poke her in the side when she was at a meting whit the mafia. And Maybe make sure she hat something to eat or drink so she was busy. But now she was almost a grown up women she step by step begins to speak to the big boys in the mafia. She did look around she might want to run if she sees the dragoon

But can he speak to us. or what? It can be hard to communicate whit him if I can't understand him.* he did look a little bit nervous around trying to see if he was close to getting to them. He did not know what to react if he did showed up maybe begin to run away too trying to get away

"Heh, don't worry he can speak and he can certainly understand our language. If he ends up liking you, he's actually really nice to be around... sort of. Mostly if you like him too, which can sometimes be difficult. Well, there's my place up ahead, nothing to worry about." Aside from a few dozen paw prints that were nearby, most of them old though. His home was a few nice somewhat sturdy wooden walls with the entrance still looking like a tent, including the zipper. The back wall was still a nice big sturdy oak tree.

Bella was fast and run inside to get some warm in the place* Ahhhh that is so much more nice good thing I did not get sick. Ow you guys don't have a problem whit me only siting in a bra I don't want to get sick because of a wet shirt.* She was almost begging to take her shirt of so anyway it was to late to say no to her. She did look around it was a really nice place he got. A nice place if she did want to camp out side

Ritzi shake his head he had see a girl in a bra before so it was nothing new to him . He give Verdi a nice hug and kiss.* Well if that dragoon do like me and want to have me as a pet. He must be prepared that I am already a pet for someone* he gently bit him in the neck and wack his little tail fast from side to side

"Hehe, maybe so. Well make yourselves comfortable, and enjoy your little stay here. Any time you need it this place is open to you." The green dragon sat with Ritzi on his bed, set up at the back "wall" that was the tree. "That chest over there has some clothing, some food, and some water stashed in it. The fire pit here in the middle's always got enough fuel around to be lit up. I try to have just about any kind of comfort available here." Thankfully nobody had ever come here and wanted to steal from him, and for the most part bad company didn't arrive. Just one or two times in the past maybe.

Bella smiled and walked over and find a nice T-shirt. It was a little bit to big for her. but a shirt was still a shirt. And it was really warm and nice to wear.* Well thank you for that I promise to wash it before I give it back to you* She said back on the ground and fell the warm form the warming place.

Ritzi look back in his bag. I have some marshmallows if you want some and some chocolate saous if you want some* He gently cuddles close to Verdy It was the best thing he know was to cuddles close to him
