The Writer's Café

"Im sorry," Irin says to the girl, "But I'm already in an Alliance. Though I'm sure Star won't have a problem if you joined us?" She phrased it in a question, unsure of Star's reaction.
 
The girl hears Star and thinks about this. Then, she climbs onto her dragon and whispers something into it's ear. The dragon nods and flies away. Suddenly, all the dragons and people glow, then go back to normal.
"That is the Dragon Father," explained the strange girl. "It is like the Great Dragon Mother, except it's a boy. He has healing abilities, and has gifted all dragons and humans with the ability to heal fatal wounds, and not die during this war."
 
"I don't think there's anyone left to fight." Irin says to Star. "Its only you, me... And the girl." She looks suspicously at the girl. Then jumped when she started to glow. "What...what kind of magic is this...? I'm not familiar with it."
 
"It's Dragon Magic," explained the girl, who had lived with the dragons for many years and learned a lot about them. "Each dragon has a special gift; some have small gifts, and some have powerful gifts. The Dragon Father's gift is the same as the Dragon Mother's; they create all dragon life, and can prevent it from dieing. Other dragons have other gifts, and there are so many powers that you might never meet more than a handful of dragons with the same power, if any."
 
Irin's eyes narrowed, and she grew even more suspicious. She had several dragons of her own, and none had mentioned this..."power." Irin never trusted a form of magic she was unfamiliar with.
 
"Some dragons get their powers later than others. And even when the power does appear, the dragon might not discover it for many years. Of course, I'm not completely sure about this, but I was raised by dragons and was surrounded by dragons my entire life, and all, or most, of them had powers. Maybe the dragons I knew were different than other dragons," The girl mused, shrugging.
 
Star didn't trust this at all. 2 more dragons; a mint and guardian, had joined him. He felt his sword attached to his back.

"You want me to test this?" He says to her, and pulls out another weapon, a gun. "What? I prepared for war earlier."

He raises the gun and loads it.
 
"No! Don't hurt the dragons!" shouted the girl, her eyes full of fear. "They saved me when I was a baby and protected me!" She stood in front of the dragons, ready to use herself as a human shield.
Of course, she didn't need to use herself as a human shield. She took a small, shiny thing out of her pocket, and suddenly it grew to the size of a large shield. It was sparkling with sunlight and had every color of the rainbow reflected on it's surface. The girl always carried her magical dragon scale with her, for emergencies like this.
