The next morning slowly the dragons woke first. Saranto and Kadrid spent a good twenty minutes alone together, enjoying  letting the others sleep.

"I'm glad your coming with me." She told him.

"Why do you say that?" He asked her. 

"Because there is absolutley no other dragon i'd want to go through hell with." She confessed to him.

Soranto smiled a her for a long moment, before answering, "Me too, honey." 

               Kadrid looked behind them just in time to see Salem and the others beggining to wake. She gave them more than a few minutes before both dragons headed that way. 

  Once they had all said good morning, the empress gave each of the dragons a couple of muffins and apples. Kadrid gave her a nudge of affection, gently as not to knock her down. She in turn rubbed her ears. Then the three of them climbed upon the dragons, who flew up and onward once again. 

The empress knew they were getting closer when all of the sudden, her mind went blank, as if it had been painted white. Thoughts became jumbled as a vision began to appear while riding on top of the dragon. 

She saw a dark stone grey cave, possibly in the underworld. Watching the vision take place she saw two people. Magellan and Spencer. They were hiding in the cave, talking or planning something. She wasn't sure. It faded into the bleak abyss of nothingness as she rubbed her eyes then temples for a long moment. 

           Shaking her head, it was one of the most intense vivid ones she'd experienced, especially dark visions. The encounter had drained her not only mentally but spiritually as well. She was glad to see that the vampires were unharmed, for now.
