Mugen barely even managed to raise the sword-arm before he was caught in the chest by the solid part of the dragon’s wing causing his arm to painfully grate across the diamond like scales while knocking the wind out of his lungs. Saphira continued to fly causing Mugen to be left hanging momentarily before he plummeted to the ground. He couldn’t breathe, his vision was going blurry and the sounds around him sounded muffled.

THUD

Mugen lay sprawled out on the ground, lying on his back. He could barely move, his body ached from the fall. After a moment he sat up, managing to take in a few deep breaths as he did. He sat up in time to watch the final moments of the clash between Keldran and the Dragon, the wave of chakra washed over him before he finally saw Keldran be hurtled off into the distance and out of sight. This wasn’t good. It was about now that Mugen realized the pair of them had finally bitten off more than they could chew. The green Dragon began boasting and Mugen spotted Saphira rising into the air behind the beast, he waved his arm in the direction Keldran had been flung, motioning for her to go after him.

As Mugen stood he recalled the many times Keldran had put himself in danger just to save him; Sunagakure, Iwagakure just to name some. And Mugen had never been able to do the same for Keldran. Until now. Mugen had one job, to keep the Dragon Prince distracted long enough for Saphira to take Keldran to safety. He took a few deep breaths before standing up straight. The coils of Senjutsu chakra appeared again however they were much fainter than before. No doubt the Green Prince would feel the Senjutsu chakra again, he would also notice that the stability it had was wavering. Mugen was fighting against the desire to enter Stage Two, he needed the strength it provided but the madness that came with it was dangerous.

Meanwhile Saphira had seen Mugen gesture and flew off in the direction Keldran had gone. She briefly looked back before shaking her head and flying as fast as she could manage. “Foolish boy” She muttered. IT wouldn’t take long for Saphira to reach Keldran as long as she wasn’t intercepted.

Mugen now standing and now back in relative fighting shape called out as the thrusters on his back primed themselves for flight and immediate take off. “OI, YOU MEDIOCRE LOOKING LIZARD” Mugen took off from the ground, moving off to the right side of the Dragon hoping to cause it to turn away from the direction Keldran had gone. Mugen was surprisingly quick especially with his Thrusters to boost him along. Mugen would use the Axe Destroying Fist technique to turn his right arm into a Large broad headed axe. He began to direct himself towards the wing of the dragon once more. He would put a lot of force into the thrusters in hopes to lift himself high enough to once again try and slash at the leathery section of the dragon’s wing.

Should Mugen’s distraction be working Saphira would finally find Keldran lying battered and beaten a good five miles from the fight. “Oh child” she muttered as she landed beside him and she carefully picked him up with her front claws, cradling him as he lifted up off the ground and flew even further from the Green Prince “As much as you may want to, you can’t fight, not like this. You need time to heal” she moved quickly, the further she could get from the Prince the better.
