-Reshizula nodded and smiled- "Yes my dear octopus, i have the key to absofusion here in my furry pockets!" -she'd said, the Reshiram pulling out the fashioned dagger with the DNA Splicer as it's blade out from one of her furry outhangings on her forearms-
"With this DNA Dagger, i can fuse with Kyuru or my Deep Black brother, but... i haven't directly tested it on my Deep Black Brother though... who knows what horrible Pokemon abomination i'll become when i fuse with him...! He might bring it upon me and force it, then we'll hunt down Kyuru and then finally fuse her back in to form... what we three... were originally... are..."
-she'd tapered out at the end, feeling a wave of... akward nostalgia coming over her, but as well a daytime nightmare too. Reshizula shuddered at the thought of the idea of all three of the Tao Siblings being formed back together to the Original Dragon they once were. An image below flashing in her head to remind her of what she used to look like together with her siblings.-
"P-Perfect K-kyurem..." -she'd quietly said to herself- "...wh-what w-we three were originally... I-i... I-i d-dunno i-if th-the rest of Chima c-could handle it... wh-what if my Tribe c-can't h-handle us?!" -she'd say to herself, dreading the thought of the events she mentioned-
Othaurus: "Excellent... Make sure you don't lose it, and continue to keep the DNA Dagger safe--"
The octoling stops as he brings the running Fafnir to a stop, and has his mech-dragon motion for the others to stop as well.
Othaurus: "Looks like the Snow Leopards, Turtles, and Piranhas have formed a united front on the field just up ahead, right in front of the Glacial Pass. They're blocking the way into the north... We'll need reinforcements if we want to break through."
-Reshizula grunts and flops over in the hold as the Fafnir is brought to a screeching stop, she'd growled and heard what Otharus said and crossed her arms and rolled her vivid blue eyes-
Reshizula: "Oh great, an diversion to stop us! I Want to get to my sister NOW!!! What can we do to get through this front then?!"
-Having had taken an detour of some sort, prolly in an idea to go forth with, Flyzeinab had an idea.-
-She'd looms closely to the blazing Mount Cavora, looking around, hoping no guards were patrolling, she seems to be in a safe spot for now, but sneeking around would make her suspicious, she ditches that idea and decides to go the more... formal route of heading right to the front gates, or whatever entrance Mt. Cavora has, she has never flown this close to the mountain before and she smiles at the view she has of Chima, but looks alert, she'd soon notices two other Pokemon talking to some Dragon Guards, Vik Vektor and Sir Arano.-
Flyzeinab: "huh... interesting, i'm guessing those are some of Flygarra's old friends... whatever, i must gain access to Fire Chi so my brother can't go through the Ice Trials! The Flygons can't be corrupted by Ice and cold, we're weak to such a substance in this universe! I have to save my brother if it's the last thing i'll ever do for him as his Queen!"
-Meanwhile down below-
Dragon Guard A: "So lemme get this straight... you two weirdos from another dimension THINK you can have Fire Chi by DEFAULT because your... 'typing' is related to Fire?" -one of them said, looking to the other with a confused look-
Dragon Guard B: "I knew these aliens from another dimension are flawed, it'll be great to take away your sentience like Drakonus wants! We got to find a way to banish their kind from our realm! Oh if only we knew how... some others in some other dimension may know how to do that..." (Think Ninjago's 16 realms and the way banishment works in that universe)
Vik Vektor: "H-hey man! We ain't losing our cool new bodies due to man in the high castle! C'mon let us do those fire trials, we'll ace em!" -he'd said, his face looking confrontational.-
Sir Arano: "You think you can fight fire with fire?! Thats the most ridiculous saying i think i've ever heard!" -he'd scoffed, nudging the Fire-psychic Victini besides him-
Dragon Guard A: "Why in the world are we even TALKING to you people?! You're wasting our time!"
Dragon Guard B: "Yes, leave this place at once or else we'll remove you from our property by force!"
-Both Dragon Guards soon point their fire-tipped spears at the two Pokemon, soon after, Flyzeinab lands behind them and the Dragon Guards grunt and look at the new-comer-
-Flyzeinab grunts and looks at the amazing palace or building or Demiurge or whatever is there and looks impressed-
Flyzeinab: "My, what an amazing place you Dragons have here...! Step aside you two." -she'd said pushing past Vik and Arano-
Vik: What...?! Who in the name of Kyuru are you?!"
Sir Arano: "Wait, you look familiar... aren't you--"
Flyzeinab: "Flygarra's twin sister...? Yes, i am. And i've come here to save my brother AND my entire tribe from the fate of Ice Chi!" -she'd said, sternly emphasizing the end and looking at the guards before her-
-Both Dragons looked at eachother, knowing it was another of the "Aliens", but her demeanor is a bit intriguing...-
OOC: Wouldn't she be a princess? Also, I was getting the word wrong; I think it's sapience, not sentience, to describe beings that can talk and think like humans.
IC: Docked in the small "port" built onto Cavora where the gate is, a hatch opens in the Demiurge, and the Dragon King himself flies out of the airship.
Drakonus murmurs: "Funny, I was just talking to a flygon. Greetings!"
Dragon Guard A: "K-King Drakonus! These intruders--"
Drakonus: "At ease, men. I will talk to them. But stay vigilant in case they try anything."
Both guards: "Yes, sir!"
The two guards part, and Drakonus alights between them.
Drakonus: "So from what I overheard, you all want fire chi? Then I'll answer both your questions: none of you will be able to use it, unless you swear loyalty to me. I don't say this out of an ego, but rather, that's how this fire chi actually works. You have to pledge your allegiance to the Dragons and the Anti-Sapience cause, otherwise the fire chi will burn you with its touch. And yes, the fire chi itself will 'know' whether you truly mean it or not."
(OOC: I mean, the tribe had to find a queen somewhere and since Flygarra won't accept any other woman normally... Flyzeinab was chosen as his own queen, even if she is his sister.)
-Flyzeinab heard of Drakonus's motives, but the usage of Fire Chi to save his brother's hide from being frozen over was too good to refuse!-
Flyzeinab: "As long as you don't back-stab us and end up removing our sapience, then i'll make sure my tribe, as I am their Queen, to pledge allegiance to the Draconic cause. I, as you should know, am partially Draconic in nature. I am like you, but controlling a different element... a-and from another realm... So... we do have something in common... also... you look quite less menacing in person as you were on video-display, but ignore that..." -she'd said the last bit with a bit of embarassament to herself-
-The Victini and Balie Oricorio looked at Flyzeinab and looked back at eachother-
Vik: "This girl's gonna get us killed."
Sir Arano: "Seconded, mate. I think we should leave this one to her!"
-In a comedic timing, they both quickly flew off, Flyzeinab grunted, turning around and smirking-
Flyzeinab: "Heh, Wimps~... can't seem to compete with this pretty lady here~..."
-She'd turned back to Drakonus with a serious look- "I know what your people have done to my people in the past, many tales of tragedy, terror and hardship, but that was thousands of years ago... we Flygons were quite a late arrival to Chima, but we've evolved quickly so to speak. You don't remember some of our bravest warriors in history trying to prove to your people they were like your Dragon species too..." -she'd sighed and closed her eyes, looking down in a sorrowful expression-
"...but you've always turned the other cheek, and never had let us reach our glory as Dragon-types. Then again, your people may not remember these events or maybe these events may haven't happened at all and they were just myths and tall tales! I don't care if they were stories, true or false. It gave me the idea that, once you people had returned, I or my Brother will go forth and prove our allegiance to your kin we've tried to swore back then under your occupation. Maybe if you've met our Sinnohan Rivals, the Garchomps and if THEY came to Chima, you've would've accepted their brutish ways, and we Flygons would've been wiped off the face of this Earth!" -she'd scruched her face and looked back at Drakonus with intense dtermination with her look-
"...Now the King of the Flygon Tribe is under threat of freezing to death by those dreaded northern peoples and their Ice Chi! Y-you wouldn't want to let this powerful ally of your future fall to the corruption and cold carnage this Ice Chi brings forth upon us Flygons, would you?! We like the heat and warmth of the sun, the dryness of the air, we've lived within it for centuries!!"
-the Flygon queen gotten onto her knees and looked remorseful and sorry- "...P-please Lord Drakonus... SAVE your fellow Dragons from the monstrosity of Ice Chi...!"
Many of the Snow Leopards point their blasters, swords and spears at Flygarra, but Leonardo motions for them to stand down.
Leonardo: "...Flygon King Flygarra, calm down. I won't force anyone to use ice chi. Though I notice that you said, 'under Flygon law', but do your laws apply to us? The tribes choose their own laws, and the leaders to enforce them. Even if they're ruled by a monarchy, or a leader they otherwise didn't elect themselves, the people of each tribe still have the freedom to overthrow said leader, if the people deem it necessary. If you force your tribe's specific perception of 'order', and of what is 'lawful', onto other tribes, then you are taking away that freedom, no? Each and every one of us is an embodiment of free will, thanks to the advent of sapience, and therefore I cannot overlook such transgressions."
Many in the room (other than the Snow Leopards) are surprised by Leonardo's oddly philosophical rebuttal to that particular sentence, as if the Snow Leopard King had barely heard or barely cared about Flygarra's ice chi rant.
Tyron: "That's... all well and good, King Leonardo, but shouldn't someone give King Flygarra a coat, or something? I wouldn't want to make enemies of the Flygon Tribe by posing a health risk to their leader at this meeting."
Leonardo: "That's a good point, King Tyron. Apologies for my tangent. It's a habit."
The Snow Leopard King has multiple layers of thick clothing brought in for Flygarra, enough to warm him back up to room temperature if he puts them on.
IC: *Ppyrr folds his arms.* "Why the brick is every tribe in chima here?"
-Flygarra quickly takes the clothes without a second thought, him shivering still-
-Sa'Qhala looks remorseful and quickly and holds Flygarra close, her warm smile gives Flygarra hope that everything will be alright, the Flygon King smiling back at his Desert ally- "Heh heh... a-at l-lease i-i m-may make a complete u-union with a woman of such beauty as YOU m-my d-darling..." -he'd chuckled, the warmth of the clothes warming him up nicely, Sa'Qhala blushing and rolling her vivid golden eyes-
Sa'Qhala: "Oh please, we're in front of a crowd! Leave our Romance behind closed doors!" -she'd quietly said to Flygarra, giving a reaffirming nod-
-The Snake Queen turned to Tyron and smiled-
Sa'Qhala: "As a fellow Reptile, your people have quite the hospitality, Tyron. You're people were quite welcoming after we settled down and made ourselves not look like intruders. I assure you missionaries of Desert-dwelling Turtles are handsomely rewarded if we manage to locate them, they quite are the nomads."
-Meanwhile Flygarra's staring at the Piranahs here with a very puzzled look to his face-
Flygarra: -slowly lifts finger up pointing to the Piranah Leader and ppyrr- "Are... you guys related to... Carvanha... by any chance...?"
Othaurus: "Excellent... Make sure you don't lose it, and continue to keep the DNA Dagger safe--"
The octoling stops as he brings the running Fafnir to a stop, and has his mech-dragon motion for the others to stop as well.
Othaurus: "Looks like the Snow Leopards, Turtles, and Piranhas have formed a united front on the field just up ahead, right in front of the Glacial Pass. They're blocking the way into the north... We'll need reinforcements if we want to break through."
-Reshizula grunts and flops over in the hold as the Fafnir is brought to a screeching stop, she'd growled and heard what Otharus said and crossed her arms and rolled her vivid blue eyes-
Reshizula: "Oh great, an diversion to stop us! I Want to get to my sister NOW!!! What can we do to get through this front then?!"
Othaurus: "It'll have to be a full frontal assault. If you were to simply fly over, the Snow Leopards would shoot you down in an instant with those turrets... They're much more alert now that the Dragons are awakened."
OOC: Wouldn't she be a princess? Also, I was getting the word wrong; I think it's sapience, not sentience, to describe beings that can talk and think like humans.

-the Flygon queen gotten onto her knees and looked remorseful and sorry- "...P-please Lord Drakonus... SAVE your fellow Dragons from the monstrosity of Ice Chi...!"
OOC: Now that's a certified "royal dynasty" moment.
IC: Drakonus: "I'm not interested in wiping any species off the face of the map..."
The Dragon King surprisingly kneels down to be on the same level as her again.
Drakonus: "It is, in fact, that cycle of wars and destruction that I will end. I created this land to be a perfect embodiment of nature; predators and prey, the circle of life, abundant resources; the animals living simply to reproduce and pass on their DNA, not plagued by any complex or saddening thoughts. Chi has ruined this, by forcing unto all of you the same thing my species always suffered from: sapience. It is a curse that brings about the horrors of civilization: war, inequality, pointless politics, backstabbing, pollution, planets sucked dry of their resources, as if their own inhabitants had become parasites. I've seen it happen time and time again, and so I wanted a world free from it. Thus, I created Chima. I won't allow Chima and its people to continue down this destructive path."
He rises and crosses his arms.
Drakonus: "Though you alien species aren't my creations, I will save you as well. My plan is to reclaim my powers as a God, and use them to obliterate all the chi, and to revert all life in Chima back to its natural state. I'll even remove myself of my own sapience, to finally bring this cycle to an end. But... to do that, I will have to first take care of those Snow Leopards and their ice chi. You're right to be afraid of ice chi. As if regular chi wasn't unnatural enough, ice chi was created for the express purpose of fighting me, the God of this world!"
Drakonus motions for one of the guards to hand him an orb of fire chi.
Drakonus: "Here, we shall see if you're genuinely devoted to my cause after hearing the full details of it. This, while another type of chi, is a necessary evil to combat the Snow Leopards. A Holy Fire that will expose and fight back against the lying demons who claim to be for the cause of 'freedom.' Ha! A farce. I will bring true freedom back to this world. Sapience and civilization are chains."
-Sa'Qhala looks remorseful and quickly and holds Flygarra close, her warm smile gives Flygarra hope that everything will be alright, the Flygon King smiling back at his Desert ally- "Heh heh... a-at l-lease i-i m-may make a complete u-union with a woman of such beauty as YOU m-my d-darling..." -he'd chuckled, the warmth of the clothes warming him up nicely, Sa'Qhala blushing and rolling her vivid golden eyes-

Tyron: "I am glad to hear that my scouts treated you fairly, Queen Sa'Qhala."
*Paradox surveys Chima from a hill near the coast.* "I wish you luck, creatures of ice." *He turns and walks down the hill, boarding a wooden ship with Fennec designs on it.*
*Paradox leans against the railing and looks towards Chima as it disappears over the horizon. He turns and descends the stairs, heading below deck. He enters a laboratory room, that looks spotless, despite it being on a wooden ship* "Sono, Silvervine, how are you doing?"
"SHHHHHHH! This is delicate work. We are close though." *Sono and Silvervine are adding robotic parts to a body.*
"Excellent." *Paradox leaves the laboratory and heads to his chamber. The camera pans to reveal the face of the body that the two slightly cybernetic cats are working on to be Fracture.*

I've been somewhat conflicted on what to do next. I know what direction I want to go in, with the introduction of certain characters, but I want there to be at least a few more generic fire vs ice battles before I get to that. However, I don't want those battles to feel forced, so I'll say that Reshizula's mission and the ice chi are the apparent reasons Drakonus is going to attack the north now.
IC: The Dragon King puts the orb of fire chi on the ground before Flyzeinab, then flies to the Demiurge to ready his forces.
Drakonus: "If you are truly 100% loyal to our cause of removing sapience from the world and restoring Chima to its natural state, then the fire chi will 'know', and will allow you to touch and use it. Otherwise, if there is even a hint of doubt or disagreement in the cause within your mind, it will burn you at the touch. Consider this carefully. Anyhow, I will now begin the assault on the north. We must ensure that my daughter finds her 'siblings', and we must also blockade, or bomb, the Snow Leopards' castle to prevent them from distributing ice chi to any more tribes."
Drakonus flies into the Demiurge, and from the bridge of his command ship, orders the army to begin its charge north. Many Dragons remain here to defend Cavora, but most fly (or run in the Fafnir mechs) north, along with the Demiurge, soaring above all.

OOC: He was talking about their technology in the snow. =P
IC: "We've never made preparations to our ships, weapons, and shields to resist the freezing air, ice, and snow. The best we have are guesses unless we were to confer with the snow leopards or the golden eagles. Goggles and Aerstryke can work with guesses, but there's a high chance of failure if they cannot practice trial and error."
(OOC: Ah, i sorta answered that. ) OWlina: -she'd nod and look slightly worried- "Well, im guessing we could send some sort of scouting party out to get the gist for Goggle's and Aerstryke's trial and error? Im hoping there won't be any critical failures with our main airship."
-Reshizula grunts and flops over in the hold as the Fafnir is brought to a screeching stop, she'd growled and heard what Otharus said and crossed her arms and rolled her vivid blue eyes-
Reshizula: "Oh great, an diversion to stop us! I Want to get to my sister NOW!!! What can we do to get through this front then?!"
Othaurus: "It'll have to be a full frontal assault. If you were to simply fly over, the Snow Leopards would shoot you down in an instant with those turrets... They're much more alert now that the Dragons are awakened."
-The reshiram grinned-
Reshizula: I think those peashooters of their won't do anything to a legendary of the fire-typing like I am... just watch i just shrug off their shots with impunity!"
-The Reshiram soon pulls a orb of Fire chi from her hammerspace and soon shoves it right into the chest port of her, soon giving out a terrifying, yet cool-sound roar of her own pokemon cry before kicking down the hold's door and soon getting out of the fafnir, holding some sort of weapon of sorts which looks like apersonalized dragon flamethrower with her fur adorning it along with some silver bands here and there-
"Would you like me to watch me prove my point~?" -she'd say sarcastically to Otharus-
-Sa'Qhala looks remorseful and quickly and holds Flygarra close, her warm smile gives Flygarra hope that everything will be alright, the Flygon King smiling back at his Desert ally- "Heh heh... a-at l-lease i-i m-may make a complete u-union with a woman of such beauty as YOU m-my d-darling..." -he'd chuckled, the warmth of the clothes warming him up nicely, Sa'Qhala blushing and rolling her vivid golden eyes-
Sa'Qhala: "Oh please, we're in front of a crowd! Leave our Romance behind closed doors!" -she'd quietly said to Flygarra, giving a reaffirming nod-
-The Snake Queen turned to Tyron and smiled-
Sa'Qhala: "As a fellow Reptile, your people have quite the hospitality, Tyron. You're people were quite welcoming after we settled down and made ourselves not look like intruders. I assure you missionaries of Desert-dwelling Turtles are handsomely rewarded if we manage to locate them, they quite are the nomads."
-Meanwhile Flygarra's staring at the Piranahs here with a very puzzled look to his face-
Flygarra: -slowly lifts finger up pointing to the Piranah Leader and ppyrr- "Are... you guys related to... Carvanha... by any chance...?"
Tyron: "I am glad to hear that my scouts treated you fairly, Queen Sa'Qhala."
-Flygarra gently shivered in he cold whilst he was still warming up, waiting for his answer by Ppyrr batonmaster500 (i think?) Sa'Qhala looked to the Flygon and felt something of dread, but that feeling went away as soon as she thought about it-
-The Serpent queen turned back to Leonardo and Tyron-
Sa'Qhala: "Im worried about my freind's species here... im... hoping their "dragon typing" they have won't end up resulting them allying with the Dragon's cause... something about removing sentience... it sounds inhumane, removing what makes us... well, us... but i have the feeling these 'pokemon' have kept their original sentience... but have adapted to their new bodies ever since the advent of chi, another "evolution" to them i hear some of my tribe's own 'pokemon' say... i sometimes hear them go on about how they were "forcefully taken away from their trainers and masters" and the like. How they went on discussing how they loved their old world before they were forcibly displaced from it... it makes me... quite empathetic about it... makes me question if we came to this world from another world like they did. Or did we always belonged to this realm...? I hear of two specific snakes and my advisors as well hey they belonged to another realm... er... what was it again, boys...?"
-she'd turned to Skalidor and Fangtom both of them nodded-
Skalidor: "Ninjago... i hear this world is a sister to this world in some way, can't confirm it that easily tho--"
Fangtom: "How could you ssssay that--" "--our world is the ssssister world--" "--to Chima when you're IN--" "--Chima itsssself?!"
Skalidor: "...oh uh-huh... kinda forgot, actually..." -he'd shuckle sheepishly, both Fangtom and Sa'Qhala signed and facepalmed, the snake queen looking back to the Snow leopard and Turtle-
"Back to my point... is it possibly wa can build some sort of device that transcends the dimensional barriers and send Flygarra and his people back to his--"
-The Flygon King grunted and made his Pokemon cry to interrupt Sa'Qhala-
Flygarra: "Wh-what?! I-i f-frankly DON'T wan't to go back to my home-realm! ...yet at least... it's been so long since i've lived in this world, i have yet to SEE what this entire land is like! let alone whats out there BEYOND Chima...! B-but... given how Chi has evolved me to being like me, enhancing the sentience i once had... i frankly wouldn't want to leave this realm at all... despite what Drakonus wants from the people in this realm..."
Skalidor: "Me and Fangtom here were born like this, we didn't need any of this fancy chi stuff to become what we are... yet having chi now... kinda makes us wish more of our tribes lived here, we wouldn't have to deal with the Humans back in our world afterall if we KNEW this land existed!
Fangtom: "Then again, given how--" "--Usssss sssnnakess butt heads--" "--with others and oursssselvessss..."
Sa'Qhala: "That could've easily allowed MY tribe to take over all yours since we are effectively the same creature..."
I've been somewhat conflicted on what to do next. I know what direction I want to go in, with the introduction of certain characters, but I want there to be at least a few more generic fire vs ice battles before I get to that. However, I don't want those battles to feel forced, so I'll say that Reshizula's mission and the ice chi are the apparent reasons Drakonus is going to attack the north now.
IC: The Dragon King puts the orb of fire chi on the ground before Flyzeinab, then flies to the Demiurge to ready his forces.
Drakonus: "If you are truly 100% loyal to our cause of removing sapience from the world and restoring Chima to its natural state, then the fire chi will 'know', and will allow you to touch and use it. Otherwise, if there is even a hint of doubt or disagreement in the cause within your mind, it will burn you at the touch. Consider this carefully. Anyhow, I will now begin the assault on the north. We must ensure that my daughter finds her 'siblings', and we must also blockade, or bomb, the Snow Leopards' castle to prevent them from distributing ice chi to any more tribes."
Drakonus flies into the Demiurge, and from the bridge of his command ship, orders the army to begin its charge north. Many Dragons remain here to defend Cavora, but most fly (or run in the Fafnir mechs) north, along with the Demiurge, soaring above all.
OOC: What characters? =P Also, sounds good.
OOC: Let's just say, the beings who were communicating with Fulcrum earlier.
Tyron: "I am glad to hear that my scouts treated you fairly, Queen Sa'Qhala."

OOC: I've always thought that the First Spinjitzu master did use chi to make the Serpentine humanoid, since the Great Devourer and that one Anacondrai from season 4 were in non-evolved forms like Legend Beasts. That's just my headcanon though.
IC: Leonardo: "Indeed, Drakonus' removal of sapience--in other words, reverting all of us to a pre-chi evolved state, even those of us who never had such a form beforehand--is what we Snow Leopards are determined to prevent. In terms of the dimensional portals, Drakonus had implied, during our battle millennia ago, that he believed the portals had something to do with our evolution."

OOC: I never responded to this, mb. =P
IC: *Otto nods.*
(OOC: You gotta be more vigilant! )
-Owlina nodded back and smiled-
"Well, enough waiting around then, we must head off to the north at once, without any delay then!"
-She'd soon make a nice shrill squawking to the pilots on the bridge of the ship to soon set sail, and enough said airship began it's voyage, a large areal convoy happening to form around, coming in tow for the trek up north.-
