Twas a cold night at the Dojo. The moon was covered by clouds and not much was visible in the dark. An especially cold breeze blew through the main courtyard. Just then, a sliver of moonlight shone across the courtyard, revealing a white dragon slightly bigger than a horse. It was lying down in a patch of snow, smoke billowing from his nostrils as he kept himself warm. From the brief glance, it looked sad. Its smoother than normal face tilted on the ground as it sighed, staring blankly at a tree. The moonlight was then blocked by clouds, enveloping the area in darkness again.

Tesuto almost immediately received a report of the dragon, and he was sent down to investigate. Since their return after the twilight was abolished, they had been terrorizing farms and other villages across the globe. So, when he finally arrived at the beasts location, he kept his hand on the pommel of his blade.
-
It heard him coming, staying where he was. It seemed too depressed to really do anything.
-
"What brings you here, "Doragon?" Why do you push uneasiness into the Dojo's citizens?"
-
He lifts his head, curious. "What do you mean?" he said in a fairly recognizable voice. He then looked at himself. "Oh yeah...i should probably explain but its complicated.."
-
"I am surprised you can speak to begin with. Most of your kind do not speak the common tongue." Tesuto took a breath, letting go of his blade. "Tell me of your strife, Dovah."
-
"Well, for starters, im not purely a dragon. Ever the case you've seen a bipedal arctic fox around, that would be me. How i can become other things is a longer, more painful story to tell..."
-
"Mmmm. Reminds me of the ancient stories of the Animagus. Men who would shape shift into animals. Even if you are not willing to share, why do you lay here depressed?"
-
"I don't do much...and i was never human. Im here now because i really have nothing else to do..." He sighed, rolling onto his side.
-
"Well...that is new. Have you thought about assisting Zane in recovering the kidnapped citizens of the dojo?"
-
"Wait, what? Kidnappings?" He seemed surprised by the news as his head perked up.
-
"Equally as surprising I must say. You did not know of the hundreds of people that disappeared in one night?"
-
"No, not at all. Please, tell me more." He moved to sit up slightly, sort of. Like dog almost, on his haunches.
-
"A beast flew over the village, kidnapping everyone in mere minutes. It was so fast I could hardly process it before the screams started. If you are bored, you must speak to Zane at his base camp."
-
He nods. "Ill see what i can do."
