He leans forward to kiss her forehead as she sighs relaxing her body. There moment is interrupted by a loud thud splashing into the water. Both snapping to the stream as a silver scaled creature springs up from the water. Screeching to the heavens and flailing in the water. Artemis steps forward allowing her silver dress to get drenched past her ankles. The king watches on with worry while the young maiden walks to creature with no hesitation. 
                          
Aneesa
                          
The beast snaps all it's attention to the voice. Familiar but unfamiliar at the same time. The white eyes locking with silver ones. The water is now knee deep to Artemis as she slowly walks to the scared dragon. 
                          
It is alright Aneesa... I am Artemis. Do you remember me?
                          
Ar-Artemis?
                          
Artemis smiles gently nodding to her. Taking the final steps to reach her. The creature looks over Artemis' shoulder to see another person looking upon her. He doesn't move forward although watches on intently. Her gaze snaps back down feeling a soft hand on her chest. The silver human now standing directly in front of her. Only her eyes are looking all over the dragon's body. Inspecting it for any injuries. Aneesa searches the sky for her brother but loudly roars trying to locate him. Artemis looks up understanding what she is doing. 
                          
However the King is confused. The hidden guards begin coming out to stand by the king with swords unsheathed prepared to defend. They all watch on in amazement and slight terror as this beast roars. 
                          
Aneesa can feel multiple eyes on her making her attention snap back down. Her eyes landing on the weapons making her hiss and lower her body into a defensive stance. Artemis immediately notices the difference and turns around to see armed guards standing next to the king. Aneesa begins growling towards the men making them get in a fighting stance.
                          
"Put away your swords men, NOW!" 
                          
Casden can see the men give disbelief looks to one another not listening to his order. The dragon standing tall and glaring intently at the men. 
                          
Aneesa, please listen... They will not harm you. 
                          
The white eyed dragon does not listen. Swiping her tail, Artemis is thrown through the air landing hard on the pebbled stones in the creek bed. Her body lying half submerged in the water.  The stream rolling over her while she tries to remain conscious. 
                          
King Casden's heart stops watching as the young beauty is tossed aside. His men instantly standing in front as a barrier to the raging creature. 
                          
A loud roar rings through the skies before a black shadow plows into the side of the silver scaled dragon. The force stopping the attack. The two beast tumble together making the forest quake from the force. 
                          
King Casden looks to see the raven wings standing in front of the smaller beast. He instantly recognizes the black dragon. His attention then turns to Artemis who has yet to move from the water. His blood runs cold as he pushes his way through his men. Rushing into the stream before gather an unconscious Artemis into his arms. His hand braces the back of her head pulling her up, the other below her knees. As he adjusts her in his arm, his hand becomes visible coated red. He gulps treading out of the water with her in his arms. 
                          
Kaleo whips around still guarding all the humans from his infant sister. Aneesa is still glaring at the weapons but no longer attempting to charge forward, not with her brother stopping her. Kaleo gives a warning sound before nudging Aneesa to fly. She complies lifting into air. Kaleo watches as she flies away before turning his attention back to the silver savior. He chuffles seeing her sleeping form in the arms of another. His heart growing heavy.
