"Don't get yourself into trouble.. trouble.. [/b]

That was Slity's only warning and suggestion to Silvia before she trotted off and along through the village. The thought of what Slity said to her was very amusing to her because she knew very well that Slity knew she was going to cause something. She always does of course.

Silvia slipped by people and slinked into the spaced between homes, trouble always starts out of sight and out of mind of others, but what could she do to stir up a little mischief? It was unknown to her at this point but she figured she could figure it out along the way. Silvia climbed up a hillside and looked around for a moment at her surroundings. She noticed a nice little vantage point to view the area.

Silvia slipped behind the houses trying not to draw as much attention as a dragon could. She reached the side of the wooden home and she looked up at the roof. She jumped at the wooden exterior of the home and crawled up the side to the rooftop. She slipped up to the middle of the roof and sat on the large wooden beam that faced the harsh cold. Silvia examined the area around her, looking down at the unsuspecting villagers down below. She still hadn't come up with any scrap of a plan, not one lone idea roaming around in her devious mind.

She laid down and placed her front legs in front of her and crossed them before putting her head down on them. She continued to scan the area around her.

"First time you can't come up with anything girl.[/color] She spoke to herself before she heard something hit the house roof. She looked behind her without getting up to see what it was. Her eyes turned from calm and watchful to surprised yet amused.

"Well. Would you look who it is. Berk's second best troublemaker."[/color] She remarked towards Scratchet.

[Scratchet]

Scratchet walked sulkily through the village. She wasn't quite so sure what to make of her new 'friendship' with Kenna. She was only really lurking around the Blacksmith now because Baldr had told her to, and she was unfortunately the only Viking who still accepted her despite her reputation... She wasn't sure of how Kenna would deal with her, if she'd consider her as her 'pet' or her 'trained' dragon. Scratchet shuddered. She wasn't ready to give up her freedom just yet.

But there was some advantages. If she could pose as a tame dragon, she could get away with so much more... She remembered that first time she got stuck in the Sin Bin, she managed to trick the Curtisboy into letting her out, pretending to be tame. She could just walk down the street and the Vikings wouldn't be allowed to push her out. The thought turned her frown upside down. Maybe I can use this to my advantage

She walked past the house upon which a young White Fear lay in wait. "Well. Would you look who it is. Berk's second best troublemaker."

Scratchet froze in her tracks. Who said that? She slowly turned her head to where the voice came from, and glared. It was some kind of dragon like a Night Fury, but white. She had seen them a couple of times but never actually interacted with them. Scratchet thought of a comeback. She was still feeling cocky about her current 'standing'.

"At least I'm not last." She turned around fully to face the White Fear and flicked her tail slightly. She hopped up to a neighbouring building to evade the height advantage, and ruffled her wings. "Nor am I a Night Fury Wannabe." She was probably going to get into trouble, but she'd seen how Kenna was like when she was mad. She can use that as her shield if things got weird.

Scratchet gave a snarky grin to the juvenile. This kid was trying to play with the Master.

Bring it on.

[Curtis & Slity & Silvia]

Silvia listened to the snide remarks coming back at her from the nadder. "Night Fury Wannabe", It was amusing to her to hear it coming from Scratchet. Silvia was already fully aware of Scratchets little tricks around town, all you had to do was look outside on a good day and she was surly going to do something stupid.

Silvia looked over at Scratchet on the opposing roof, "Night Fury Wannabe? Really now, is that the best you could possibly come up with you self absorbed chicken?"[/b] Silvia gave a satisfying grin while looking over at Scratchets reaction. Even if she didn't show any really damage to the insult, Silvia didn't care too much as long as she get's her point across. But she had to take it a little further with it.

Silvia got up from her stop and stood on her feet, he raised her head up like a prissy girl sticking her nose up at another. She lifted her tail off the ground and into the air. She started to walked across the roof of the house, lifting her feet up high while she kept her head up. "Oh. Look at me, I'm a nadder. I'm so pretty and fine that everyone must love me sooooo much. Walking around on my two feet like I own it because I'm just too good for everyone around me." [/b] Silvia shot a devious look at Scratchet, her violet eye's just saying, "Prove your better."

Silvia walked back to her original spot and laid down once again. Watching and waiting for the nadder to respond. Silvia just knew that the opportunity was just too good to pass up, Scratchet would defiantly jump at the chance whether she was insulted or not.

[Scratchet]

The insult twanged at her, but she didn't let it show. She was in her element, and this newbie wasn't going to get the better of her. Scratchet smiled tauntingly. "Oh, I'd come up with worse, but I don't think your little baby mind would be able to withstand it."

Silvia the White Fear then began to mock her, but such things don't really work on vain Nadders. Even more so on a Nadder playing the game. Scratchet proceeded to also stick up her head proudly and looked down to the Fear on the other roof.

"You are just sooo jealous," She remarked at the kid that set itself down again. Tch, one does not simply lay down now that the heat is rising. Scratchet made her stance more dominant in response to this, body language was a major part after all.

"I am the best, and you should know your place, little one." Scratchet notified, keeping up her proud stance. "Whatever you throw at me, I've had enough years behind me to have already seen it. You look like you've only just left the nest."

Scratchet then laughed. She had read the little dragon's smug expression. It was her turn to strike the hatchling with a silver tongue. "Seriously kiddo, you have a long way to go before you even get anywhere close to my level of deviousness. You know, I don't even think you're worth my time."

With that, she feigned to leave, hopping back down to the floor and pretending to stalk away, but slow enough to be alert and wait for the inevitable firey attitude to come back at her. She gave herself a hidden grin.

[Curtis & Slity & Silvia]

Silvia listened to the nadder try and make some high level remarks at her about how it will take years for her to get to any kind of level of deviousness as Scratchet is at right now. That doesn't necessarily mean it's true but Silvia did know that Scratchet had more experience pulling things on other dragons and the villagers then she did by a long shot. She watched Scratchet get down from the roof and start slowly walking away. Even for a nadder she seemed to be walking to slowly, as if she was either trying to taunt her, or get her to go after her. Silvia grinned to herself, she wasn't going to chase Scratchet though.

Silvia slipped down from the roof she had been perched up on and trotted along and caught up with the slowly taunting nadder. Silvia looked up at Scratchet for a moment and looked forward as she walked beside her. "Alright wizard of tricks and conductor of chaos. Let's pull something off. Mess around with the villagers abit. There was a reason of course why I was sitting up there in the first place."[/b] Silvia looked back at Scratchet and grinned at her. "You can even come up with the plan and I can just help as your little henchmen."[/b]

Silvia had it planned out. Well mostly planned out. She figured that Scratchet wouldn't be able to pass up an opportunity to show off her devious ways. It would also allow for Silvia to watch and pick up ideas. If the two of them were to actually team up in a way just to cause chaos that would amuse Silvia quite abit. Plus she wouldn't be bored all the time.

[Scratchet]

Scratchet heard the padding of feet catch up behind her. Here we go, guilt-trip successful! She grinned triumphantly, but didn't make eyecontact yet. She wanted to hear what the little White Fear had to say.

Scratchet almost faltered at the proposal. She had expected more taunts to play with, or a downright confession of her inferior rank of mischief-making. She hadn't anticipated a collaboration! This could be interesting... A potential recruit!

The Nadder stopped and looked at the little White Fear. She grinned. "You think you have what it takes? Perhaps if you prove yourself enough you will be worthy of..."[/i][/color] She trailed off. Scratchet was aware that this dragon was tame and her project was still a secret. She didn't want her plans leaked early by this little dragon going off telling to the humans.

"If you prove yourself worthy of me, you'll get a special prize."[/i][/color] Declared Scratchet, making her terms clear. She shook herself and took a more prideful pose. "Let's make some nuisance!"

She then sauntered off down the town, looking for opportunities. She saw a couple of barrels full of fish near someone's door. Delicious. She looked around before hopping near the barrels.

She then turned around, exclaiming "Oh the Gods, did I just see the hottest Nadder in existance!"[/i] [/color]And 'accidentally' knocking the barrels over with her tail. She immeditely turned around and gave out a sarcastic "Oops", before tucking in. She shoved the barrels out the way so she could fill in on her spoils. She ate as much as she could, before a Viking came along. She forgot about the White Fear for now; it was a matter of survival, and that depended on the needs of the one.

[Curtis & Slity & Silvia]

Silvia listened to Scratchets little snip comment about "Thinking she has what it takes and to prove herself". Sure Scratchet had much more experience with such little mischiefs and pestering problems. But she could still cause some issues by herself and she knew it. Then she heard Scratchet say something about a prize. A prize? What kind of prize was Scratchet capable of giving her if she could prove herself. It could be anything from a measly fish to any amount of valuables of any kind, provided Scratchet was able to steal them away in the first place.

Silvia sulked along as she watched Scratchet burst off ahead of her and into a barrel of fish. It was well played the way she had decided to knock the barrels over and moved them out of the way. Silvia sat back and watched as Scratchet did her thing until she noticed a viking coming along towards the nadder.

Silvia bounced forward towards the oncoming viking and quickly pounced on them to avoid them from noticing Scratchet. She licked the vikings face to look cute, but was disgusting as it was in the first place. As she took her last lick she grabbed the vikings helmet with her tongue and held it in her mouth before running the opposite way with it luring the viking away.

It hadn't been long before Silvia returned back to Scratchet. "He's gonna have a hell of a time trying to find his helmet.'[/color] Silvia chuckled to herself and looked at Scratchet. "Enjoy stuffing yourself like an overfed yak yet?"[/color]

[Scratchet]

Scratchet looked up, crest flaring slighlty in alert as she heard someone coming. But Silvia did her job, bounding over to him like an overgrown dog and knocking him over. The Nadder observed, forgetting the food. Being Night Fury-like, it was easy for the White Fear to pull a puppy-dog tame appearance. Perhaps that could be used to her advantage...

Scratchet revelled in the nuisance, but perhaps on a subtle deceitful level like this would definitely be a great addition. But she wanted this kid to prove her worth first.

She ran off with the Viking's hat, to which Scratchet almost cackled with glee, but kept herself discreet as the man shouted over the tricksy young dragon and ran after the white lizard.

She gobbled up a few more fish before deciding it was time to leave the scene of the crime, and Silvia returned too. Scratchet grinned at the little dragon's remark, giving a small laugh.

"Reminds me of one of my hall-of-fame class deeds, the humans call it 'The Great Viking-Hat Scare'"[/i][/color] She recounted. "I managed to get the majority of the Villages hats and hide them somewhere obscure. They were so mad~"[/i][/color] Scratchet sighed at the hilarious memory.

Scratchet then snorted at the second remark she made, tail spines flaring slightly. But the game was still on, she had to prove herself bigger than this wannabe, but it still ticked her slightly. No one calls Scratchet an overfed yak.

"The invitation was also open to you, I said nothing about not joining in my little feast..."[/i][/color] She moved out of the way slightly so she was out of sight of the main road, and just in time too, as a bunch of Vikings arrived to assess the damage. They surrounded the fish with their arms at their waists in irritation.

"But I guess that's too late now."[/i][/color] The last comment had sort of loped the excitment of the Nadder slightly. But she knew she probably wouldnt have another chance to see this blighter in action, so she sauntered off away from the commotion.

"Come, lets see what else we can do."[/i][/color]

[Curtis & Slity & Silvia]

When Silvia returned to Scratchet after she drove off with the helmet of the viking. She looked over at Scratchet as she mentioned something about one of her grater pranks called 'The Great Viking-Hat Scare'. She was impressed that Scratchet had been able to collect a majority of the viking helmets in the village and then stash them away in an impossible area to get to. She figured she might be able to pull of something like that, maybe not to the same standards that Scratchet did, but she'd be able to do something.

Silvia looked down at the fish that Scratchet had already dug into herself. It was of course too late for her to eat much of it with the vikings behind them. Silvia was amused with the annoyed and irritated looks on the vikings rough faces. She knew that the pair of them managed to screw around with them and that they wouldn't be above stopping them, but Silvia didn't need to get caught and she was sure hat Scratchet had no intentions of being caught either.

Silvia trotted off with Scratchet as they moved away from the group of vikings. She was trying to think of some ideas of what else to do in the village. Nothing had been coming to mind but she was sure that something was going to be able to hit her soon enough.

She just followed alongside Scratchet and looked around as they trotted along. "So, any masterful ideas running around in your head so far?"[/b] She asked quizzically towards the Nader, excepting an answer.

[Scratchet]

"Oh, don't worry, I have a few,[/i] Scratchet replied. She always has to keep the Vikings on their toes, after all. "I'm just waiting for certain key factors to align for my plans to come to fruition..."[/i] The Nadder chose her words carefully, letting the little rascal know she had things up her metaphorical sleeves and shouldn't be underestimated. but she also wanted to keep the little creature piqued.

She stopped suddenly and turned to the White Fear, horns raised. "And what about you? Ideas? Her beady eyes pierced the youngster. "You keep wanting to show me up, yet you're all sqwawk, no stalk. Let's see what you can do!"[/i]

The dragon had realised the wannabe kid was out of ideas, always pushing Scratchet to come up with stuff instead of suggesting. Of course Scratchet could pull off things anytime and multiple times, but she followed a code to only keep things few, otherwise she'd lose her charm and the Vikings wouldn't even bother anymore.

Improvisation was a key in her deeds, after all.

[Curtis & Slity & Silvia]

Silvia sat in place and listened to the nadder ramble on about 'key factors' and 'fruition'. It wasn't impressing her much that Scratchet was trying to be impressive by saying such elaborate words to try and throw her off, but she just ignored it.

Scratchet had turned around to glare at her with her horns raised up, as if she was going to attack. Silvia perked ear's up and looked back at the nadder when she asked her if she had any ideas and how she wanted to show up the nadder. Silvia look around and glanced down at the ground and thought to herself. What would be a good little trick to pull off around the village. Chase around some of the villagers? No.. that wasn't worth her time, much less Scratchet's. Steal something? Yes.. that could do. But it needed to be something of value or interest that the villagers held in some sort of esteem. It dawned on her as she turned around and looked at the great hall with a little smirk.

"You know how in the great hall there is those paintings with all the chief's and their kids on them?" Silvia turned her head back to Scratchet and gave her the same little smirk. "Why don't we borrow them for a little while and wait. Then slowly put them in random areas all over the village for the vikings to find and make them go on a little scavenger hunt."

Silvia was actually impress with herself. It may not of been the master of all devious plans out there but it was still pretty good in her eyes. She waited for a response from the nadder.
