Arb could hear the wounded dragon growling behind her back. It wouldn't take much longer before she could provoke the creature to attack. Any excuse would do. Too easy.

Brandon in front of her was trying to avoid eye contact and barely dared to draw a breath, causing Arb to chuckle in amusement.
"Surely they're keeping you around for a reason, despite you being such a pathetic little mouse," Arb said glancing down at the boy trembling before her.

Hyoshabian screeched in rage, his eyes turning white, and dashed towards the redhead. He didn't know he played right into her hand. Arb locked Brandon into her grip swiftly and effortlessly, and shoved him between her and the dragon. The boy squirmed in panic to no avail.

Reacting quickly to the situation, Hyoshabian managed to stop in time by using his wings as brakes, claws scraping deep curves into the floor. The dragon's bone-covered head was mere inches away from Brandon. Hyoshabian made a low hiss aimed at the redhead. Using a bystander as a meat shield, coward! Brandon had frozen from shock, and he couldn't feel his limbs nor hear Arb's girlish, self-satisfied laughter.

Another RP scene artwork featuring my poor boy Brandon, Arb's most troublesome alter and @Zeralex's dragon lad Hämy/Hyoshabian. Things turned pretty alright at the end of all this, but let me tell ya I'm so glad Brandon is doing very good these days because he sure had it rough for a while.

This thing is already 4 years old? What?
