Maverick stood on one of the walls that looked over a small tiled square. Her blue scales glinting in the sun.
The place she stood in was run down, moss grow over the slate grey stone stairs and seats. Small patches of grass growing up through the tiles square.
It was quiet here. Something she sould not remember the last time she heard. A swift movement and she was at the base of on of the great walls.
Looking down at the grass a small flower grows through the soil, not in one of the better areas to grow. Gently she digs her claws into the soil and moves the tiny plant somewhere better.
The low whistle of wind rung out in this seemingly lifeless place. Maverick didn't mind this sound it was pleasent.
Her real worry now was the fact that she was stranded here, in another place, in another time. She was the only one of her kin that was here.
She knew this place, but vagely. Dangerous people lived here and they would certainly not welcome her. At least not openly. At this thought her tail twitched.
Though a gentle soul be nature, she was capable of fighting. It came with being part of her race. Though she really didn't like the fact of war, there was no choice then.
Maybe if I hide here I can go unnoticed she thought. But even that would on;y last so long.

The winds picked up as a figure was walking nearby. The man was hidden behind a tattered brown cloak wrapped tightly around his shoulders. He started down as he grabbed his cloak as the winds tried to pick it up off his shoulders. Dust caused him to look down. As he did so, he noticed some dug up earth. He smiled, for it was fresh, and freshly moved ground meant new people to pillage. He sat down and started to use his races' special ability. He started to meditate and located the source of the dug up dirt. The location was just a few meters away. He sat and waited, as not to pose as a threat.

Maverick was unsure. The feeling that someone was close by was strong.
Was she just imagining it? The traits that come with being a warrior never really left her.
She moved around the centeral square. As she moved she looked at it closely. Scuff marks and faint crimson stains decorated it. This was a fighting ring of that she was certain.
Then she saw someone. The person was hidden beneathe a cloak, she was unable to distinguish gender because of it. Seeing this person caused her to jump slightly and soread her wings a little bit.
"Who are you? Why have you come?" she questioned the person sitting on the ground. She had to be careful, a just in case precaution.

The man looked up at the being and said in his mind, Ah, I knew it. I wonder what she tastes like? He smiled as she asked the question. The shadows of the hooded cloak still covered his face, though it was revealing a rather large snout that resembled somewhat of a short crocodile face.
Responding to the girl he said, "Ah, I am just a passer-by, taking a rest." His voice was somewhat of a growl, but it had some sort of hissing properties to it. "What are you doing here, girl?" He then asked as green eyes behind the cloak's shadows started to glow.

This person wasn't human, which was good but something just didn't feel right. Maverick couldn't place her finger on it.
"My reason for being here is my own and none of your concern." she retorted. Even though this person appeared friendly, it was not enough to cause her to lower her guard.
Enemies can win trust too The words of a dear friend rang in her head.
She held her ground, whatever his real reason was, Maverick knew it was not just to rest. Of that much she was fairly certain.

The creature-like person stood upright, the wind blowing his hood off to reveal the rest of his face. Around the corners of his mouth was blood from other people that have either died or made it out alive without a leg. A grin spread across his bloody face as he charged the lady without any sign of doing so before. With his arms stretched out, he dove at her and tried to grab her and pin her to the ground.

The blood was enough to prove that she was right. This... thing was not friendly.
There was not much time to move. The creature was fast and for a moment she froze, jaw open.
Shaking her head was beats her wings, sending a gust of wind at the creature. The gust pushed her up onto one of the platforms.
This short obsticle would probably not hold it at bay, atleast not for very long. Her only option aside from fighting was to run.
And run she did, bolting in a B line to the next wall to try and get over it before the creature could catch up with her.

The beast looked around, dazed. "No ones dodged my surprise attack, before. I'm not gonna let that one slide." He charged at the girl once again, but she was on the wall, so he hit the wall. The thick wall started to crack upwards towards her, and started to crumble. Hoping she would fall, the green man started to claw up at her.

A surprised yelp escaped Maverick as the wall beneathe her crumbled. This caused her to lose her grip and plummeted to the ground below.
There was no time for her to rigth herself and regain the advantage of flight over him. At the rate she was going be the time she had righted herself this things claws would torn her to shreads.
So she did the one thing she was trying to avoid. Flipping herself into a a fall with her feet down she brought both her hands over her head. Vaguely something flickered to life between them. She gripped the flickering thing like a sword, now slightly more visible.
As she came near the creature she swung down on a vertical angle. She would receive some damage from this but she hoped the attack of hers would be enough to put this thing down.

With a slight yelp, the beast fell. The weapon that was brought upon his skull forced his head to split open, and his body fell into two parts to the ground. The monster was defeated. The background of the monster unknown to the slayer, she left. The monster had been terrorizing the area for quite some time and therefor the lady was sought after and rewarded for slaying the beast by that town.
