Chapter Fourteen

Pyne

Idiot!

Stupid, stupid moron. How could you have done something so blatantly stupid? This isn’t about you, it’s about Kim, and you just fucked up something big.

If he was gonna fix it, he was going to have to catch up to Morgan. Too bad he wasn’t just some human like Kim thought.

He leapt over a fallen log, then was forced to wrench his body to the side as a dart of silver shot past him. It impacted on the tree behind him and shot right through it, tumbling out the far side to flop to the ground, steam rising from the super-cold metal.

I fucking hate the damn Quicksilvers.

Their power was as the name suggested, quicksilver, a near-frozen metal that hurt whether it drove the sharp end through you, or froze your skin solid. They were fairly rare as far as dragons went, the chromatic colors like his cobalt line, the onyx, ice, crimson and emerald dragons being much more populous than the metallic lines.

But they were a pain the royal ass.

Thankfully he’d waited until they were well into the brush to start flinging his powers about. Pyne saw a flash of black move ahead of him and a split second later a lightning bolt shot out to vaporize the spot Morgan had just occupied.

“Too slow! Always too slow, Pyne. That’s your problem.”

He raced after the rogue dragon shifter, but Morgan kept up a steady and unpredictable stream of quicksilver bullets, forcing him to slow his pace to be ready for the next one. Once he singed Morgan’s pants, but that was as close as he got for some time.

“Ten years ago you were just as slow. I honestly thought you’d put up more of a challenge,” Morgan taunted again. “I took all your money then, and now I’m going to take it all again today.”

Lowering his head, Pyne put on a burst of speed, bringing Morgan into view. A blast of lightning flung him back through several small saplings and into some thick brush. Grinning at the shrieks that followed he realized it had been a thornbush. Justice.

“You didn’t take anywhere near all my money,” he shot back, running around the bush just in time to see Pyne disappear over a slight rise.

Keeping to the left he circled it, watching as a burst of quicksilver erupted from the ground like a spear, ready to impale him if he’d gone up and over in a direct pursuit.

“Do you really think I’m that stupid?” he growled as a hailstorm of tiny darts shot in his direction. They were small enough that the large tree he ducked behind protected him. Mostly. One was larger and he felt instant pain as it dug half an inch into his thigh, but no lasting damage was done.

He cleared away from the tree before a pair of much larger frozen metal spikes penetrated the wood. The tree, with nothing to support it, groaned and crashed to the ground between the two of them, giving Morgan cover to escape once more.
