A majestic black dragon descended before them, its scales shimmering like midnight oil under moonlight, wings folding with a low, thunderous thump that rattled the fur around them.

Without hesitation, she scooped all three, Shan Yifeng, Liu Mei and Little Aoki up with a single sweeping tail and plopped them securely onto her back.
Her fur fluffed out like a divine shield, ears perked, eyes narrowed, ready to maul first and ask questions never.
Liu Mei blinked, now perched atop White Fur's back like a startled kitten.

"White Fur… don't you think maybe we can ta—"
"No!" White Fur snapped, voice sharp as a whip.
Liu Mei pouted. "Huh?! But I didn't even finished saying yet…"
