"Are you doing alright? You're not hurt are you?"

Yun had his hands on your arms, You couldn't answer. You just stared at him. He was scared of the earthquake too, but managed to get you safe. Yun notices your stares and blushed.

"W-what? What's the matter?"

All of the sudden, your fear suddenly vanished. You smiled at him. "Thank you, Yun." You said with a closed eye smile. "I owe you one."

Yun looked away,"No problem..."

"Princess!"

You two heard Kija's voice in a panicked tone.  You quickly got up and headed over to them. You noticed Yona's eyes were shut. What happened??

"Your highness...your highness wake up!" You started to examine her, you didn't see any cuts or marks. You shook her arm a bit, making sure not to be rough with her. You can see that her eyelids were moving, you shake her once more and she wakes up.

"(Y/n)..."

"Good morning your highness." You joke half heartedly. You were happy to see her safe, but you wondered about Hak....is he okay?

"We're trapped down here, aren't we?"she says, looking at our blocked exit. You looked at the exit, then closed your eyes and sighed.

"It appears so."

You glance at her again and she was now terrified. This made you a tiny bit nervous. We all have limited time until we run out of air. Despite feeling fearful, you patted Yona's head to calm her down.

"Don't worry your highness. We'll make it out of here I promise you-"

"It's hard enough taking this journey with you; Why must you haunt my thoughts!?" Kija yells out of the blue.

You two looked at Kija who shouted over you when you were talking to Yona. He looks at us briefly

"Sorry guys, I wasn't talking about you. It's that lighting beast! He said something before we left that keeps echoing in my thoughts! That jerk! Why does he have to bother me in times like this!"

Yona chuckles at Kija, then looks over at you,"(Y/n), thank you. I know now that Hak is going to get us out of this."

"We don't have time to wait for Hak. I'll get us out of this!" Kija says as he unwraps his claw. Once he did he earn a quite few reactions from the villagers.

"He's a monster!"

"He's cursed too?! But how!?"

There was plenty of others that mumbled something about the blue dragon. But there was one guy in particular that made himself stand out.

He tells us about the blue dragon, how his powers are powerful enough to wipe out an entire army of troops. They all start to blame the blue dragon for all of us being trapped.

"He did it, I know he did!"

Then we started to hear bells coming from the secret entrance.

"Quiet." You shouted."He's coming."

The bells were louder as the blue dragon came into the light. His presence made the villagers shake. They were truly terrified of him. The villager who told us the story was stepping back as the blue dragon walked in his direction.

"I wasn't talking about you or anything! Believe me. I was just talking them as story about-

The guy cuts himself off as he notices that the blue dragon kept walking towards him. "I didn't mean it! Please don't hurt me!"

Without another word, the blue dragon stops; the villager slaps his mask away out of fear. Revealing nothing but his cursed eyes.

His eyes....His eyes were beautiful. Even with the narrative of the blue dragon being a total monster. You knew in your heart he wasn't evil as he is told to be.

The blue dragon does nothing. Not even react. He picks up his mask that fell on the floor as well as a weapon that was nearby. He puts the mask back on and walks away towards Kija. Without a word he lifts up the axe he picked up and swings it onto the wall.

Kija, who was right next to the hit, froze. Realizing that the blue dragon didn't hit him, he instantly comes back into reality.

"You jerk! Why didn't you say you came here to help us escape, huh?! You're lucky I'm a forgiving soul because I was ready to knock your block off."

The blue dragon doesn't pay Kija any attention. He continues to swing the axe onto the wall beside him. You decided to go over to him. He stops swinging and pays attention to you.

"Your digging in the wrong direction. The exit is over on that side." You said to him calmly, pointing at front where the rocky wall was.

"I know...but...it's easier to go through this way."

"Your communication skills really need work!" Kija yells behind you. "Don't worry guys, I'll get us out of this mess."

You and Kija exchanged looks, already knowing each other's plan. Kija's dragon hand expanded, hit after hit, Kija was going all out. You looked over at your swords and knew well enough if you even tried swinging, the blades will chip and lose its durability.

You looked around to see any weapons you could use to help. A villager who snuggled himself in a corner had a small double sided axe. As you make your way over to him, he shakes and grips the axe.

"Don't come near me! You're probably just like them! You're monsters!"

You stopped. Something about that word angered you for some reason. You continued to walk towards him again, in a instance, he gets up and holds the axe over to his head.

"I'll swing! G-get away!"

You kept your pace, with a couple feet apart from each other, he swings. You took a step back, and the axe hits the rock wall. The space became silent as everyone was looking at the scene the man caused.

When the villager tried to hit you, Yun and Yona wanted to step in, but Kija stopped them. The man left an opening for you to quickly get over at the other side of the axe, and grabbed his arm before he can yank the weapon off the wall.

"If you want to get out, you have to lend me the axe." You said to him calmly. The man who was frightened, softened his eyes at you, and lets go of the handle.

You pulled the axe out and started to walk towards Yona and the others. Without saying anything to them, you swung your axe at the rocky wall where the blue dragon said to hit. Yun wanted to say something to you but knew that you were angry, not wanting to bother you, Yun and the rest went on hitting the wall until it fell.
