Valstrath looked to the mirrored surface of the water and began preparing and practicing his expressions by what Broodmother had described.
Nidhogg tried tilting her head to the side.
It wasn't long before they were proficient at them. Rendering them to muscle memory so that they wouldn't need to see themselves or be schooled to get the proper looks. It was gearing up for battle in a different form. Valstrath was actually excited to exploit these humans obvious weakness. A clash of wits and may the best species win. Which was them of course. Dragons rule in humans drool.
Pleased with their skill and wit, Slygotha hummed pleasantly. "It is soon time to sleep. Once we wake again, we will eat as much from this pond as we can catch. I want you all stuffed full, for it may be some time before we can eat our fill once we emerge from the jungles, and the people do not eat very much, being so small. I'll have to lead in my human shape to guide through the heart of the jungle, for I am too large otherwise."
Dominic whistled to to Nikolai in a certain way and Nikolai put the gun away and shifted into his Raven/wolf hybrid form. He growled at Aeval before trotting to Dominic's side obediently. Satisfied, Dominic put his gun away. "Then perhaps they aren't even looking for you then. You didn't actually think you could trap Markus did you? Your attack on Menagerie was very convenient for us. We'd been waiting and watching him for some time. I was going to destroy his operations, but you did that for me. Now he'll come to me, if he survive." He said with enthusiasm. He looked to the wolves and Aeval as he ordered, "Let them out! They can't go anywhere, they're surrounded by my pack. Just a word of caution I wouldn't try and run."
Razeth and Valstrath shifted back to dragon form and snuggled next to their mother. They both sighed contentedly as they found comfort in her proximity and guidance of their future together.
Dominic grinned widely, "Yes, it was that footage that persuaded me to buy them all! Well all that was left. And if memory serves me right, you were no match for them. So you'd best not get them to aggravated. They don't get along with regular shifter wolves very good." He said to Kaliyani. He then shook his head as he looked to Hunter, "The distance is the difference. We are not just in your backyard little wolf. Did you not learn anything from human history? It's quite one thing to fight on local ground and quite another when you have to bring the battle to your enemies, especially across the ocean. You don't strike me as a war machine. You're merely the chickens the fox in the henhouse took. I doubt you're even missed." He said smugly. He then turned and started for the entrance of the factory.
