" Sounds like a good idea." Taylor said, shivering as well.


" You need any help?" A bundled up young woman said to the group. She liked to help travelers and figured they had never been here before.

"Yes please," Alex said quickly. Even though he liked the cold weather, this was too cold...even for him.

" Just follow me. There's an aviary for flying bishies. We have quite a few dragons visit us. Oh and I'm Elisa." She said offering her hand.

After everyone introduced themselves to Elisa, Alex asked if she knew they had a Dragon Pen or something similar to it. He knew that Angelus could hear him from anywhere. If they did have one, he would tell her about it, knowing that it would be better than sleeping out here.

" We do! Don't worry they are wonderful there to the dragons. Just be careful not to mention the black dragon to anyone." Elisa said, since that dragon and his trainer had caused much trouble here a couple of years ago.

"I don't mean any disrespect, but you're talking about Bryce, right?" Carly asked.

Elisa nodded." Is he gone? We don't get much news from other towns." She said.

Carly nodded. "It was thanks to Alex that we were all able to defeat them. The Dragon Council erased their memories of the town and banished them from it. What happened after that, we don't know," she replied truthfully, rubbing her arms lightly to keep herself from getting cold.

" That's good." Elisa said and saw they were cold." I'll take you to the inn. My mom will have dinner ready and there will be plenty of room for all of you." She said and headed toward the direction of the inn.

"That would be appreciated. Thanks Elisa," Taylor said. The sooner they could get into the hotel, the sooner they could release their friends, knowing it wouldn't be fair for them to deal with the cold as well.

Elisa took them through town and smiled at the sight of the inn. Her parents owned this place and most of the guests were from the town above." Here we are. " She said and opened the door.

"Elisa, is that you?" A womanly voice asked from within the establishment.

" It's me mom. I have guests with me. " Elisa said as she took off her snow gear. She had short red hair and brown eyes and had been teased for years that she looked like a boy.

Jennifer came back from the business side of the Inn and smiled lightly when she saw her daughter, glad to see that she had returned home safely. While she knew that Elisa could take care of herself out there in the cold, she would always worry...it was her job as a mother. She could also sense that her guests had a story as to why they were here and was curious to hear it.

"Will you all be staying the night? This side of the Inn is for myself, my daughter and the staff, but I'll be happy to set up accommodations in the business portion of the hotel," she asked. She would have allowed them to stay here for free, but she did have a business to run.

" We will be staying the night. We can assure you we can pay for our lodging. " Carly said.

"Alright then. How many rooms will you all need?" Jennifer asked. "For both yourselves and your Bishies," she added, claiming that she could always tell the different between a trainer, a bishie and a non-trainer.

" We need at least 5 rooms. I don't mind sharing with my sister and her Bishies. "Carly said. She was feeling sad and needed to talk about what was bothering her.

Jennifer nodded as she took down the amount of rooms needed. "Give me a few seconds and I'll get your keys for you," she said before leaving.

Deanna looked towards her sister and wondered what was wrong. 'I hope she's okay...'

Eve was glad that soon they could get some rest and some warm clothes on. She smiled at Salem and hoped that he would find a Bishie here.

"Elisa? Would you happen to know if there are any places to train or catch Bishies here?" Salem asked. If there wasn't, he could always wait for later but figured that it wouldn't hurt to ask.

" I do! There is park just up the street here. There are flying related bishes there that are a mix of books anime and movies." Elisa said with a smile .

(Here I was about to call Elisa, Ella from the Heroes of Olympus series lol. Also, since I chose a Bishie for Eve, you can choose a Bishie for Salem if you want)

Salem grinned at the news. "Thanks," He replied with a light grin, glad that he knew he could try catching a Bishie here. Seeing Jennifer return with five keys for their rooms, he heard her ask who would be paying for the rooms.

( Okay. I'm sort of thinking of giving him a pokemon bishe. Can I do that?)

" I'll be paying for them." Carly said, since she felt it was because of her and Deanna that her friends were here. .

(Sure. It may annoy Eve to no ends though that only he can understand him/her/it)

"Alright then," Jennifer said as she charged Carly for the rooms.

( that would be funny. I'm thinking of using Articuno as the Bishie Salem finds.)

Eve felt guilty that Carly would be paying for the rooms, but had a feeling that her friend wanted to do something for them since they were helping her and her sister.
