A new body, a new planet

The young woman opened her eyes and looked around. She'd appeared by the sea, which wasn't much of a surprise, but it wasn't anywhere she recognised. She sat up a little more and surveyed the area. This was not the planet she helped rule over, this was somewhere else completely. Was this... Earth? She had studied this planet before but she would have never expected to appear here. For her to have been taken this far away, they people here must really need her help. Curiously, she stretched out an arm towards the water and tried to call it to her. It worked, but not as well as it usually would if she was in her divine form. She was certainly no longer a goddess but it was comforting to know that her mortal form could still use her powers, if a weaker version. It was with that thought that she looked down at herself, at the vessel she had somehow obtained. Hopefully, her vessel wasn't well known in wherever she was or it could get a little awkward to explain. She also realised that she would need a name as the mortals here would not understand her language. She decided on Adria, a name similar to one of the oceans here on Earth and as a reminder of who she was. The sound of an animal howl caused her to look up sharply. She needed to move from these woods and find whatever civilisation was around here, find out exactly where she was and find the people that needed her help.

The Forbidden Forest despite its name wasn't forbidden, it was just highly suggested that most people don't go in. The hydras and other monsters were quite the hazard.

Theron didn't listen to such warnings, he hunted here, he was young and hardly the most powerful dragon, but he was still a dragon. His deep green eyes looked over the forest as he walked, as he'd done dozens of times.

Placing his hand on a tree he sniffed the air, normally he'd be in dragon form, but he didn't think it was always a good idea to always rely on that form.

His nose twitched, he had a scent, but it wasn't prey. Deciding to follow the scent anyways, he moved toward the source. As he moved past a tree, he stopped and tilted his head. It was a girl, probably older than him, he hadn't expected to see anyone.

Curiously he walked toward her, waving as he did, "hello, are you ok?"

Adria looked up. There was a young boy walking towards her, waving and speaking English. Clearly she was correct about this being Earth and she silently thanked her mother for making her do projects on other inhabited planets, learning their languages. "Hello. I am perfectly okay but I would appreciate it if you could inform me of our location."
She wondered if he was one of the people that needed her help. He looked fairly okay, no visible physical injuries but then that was to be expected, she was here to help those who were distanced through more emotional issues. Standing, she faced him and held out a hand "My name is... Adria. You are?"

The young dragon walked a bit closer, "you're on Manta Carlos." He sniffed the air, it was a bad idea to stay in any one spot five to long. "Its an island.....how'd you get here?" he asked curiously, his eyes staying alert.

He looked back to her, dark skin, red hair, she was beautiful, "I'm Theron, its good to meet you." His nose twitched again, trying to pick up any scents, "you shouldn't be here, this forest is dangerous," a bit of frost seemed to leak from his mouth as he turned his ice magic on.

"Come on let's get out of here," he looked in one direction, if it was just him he wouldn't care, but she was here. "Shouldn't take long to find an exit."

She gave him a long look "I've never heard of it." This was true, she had studied the planet in great depth but never heard of this island at all. It must have some magic boundary, assumedly to stop most of the world getting in. This was her first hint that the people here weren't entirely normal. Standing up, she brushed some dirt off the white dress her vessel was wearing, ignoring the question as to how she arrived. Her would be ineffective if the people were aware she was a goddess. She decided instead to find out how others got here and match her story to theirs.
Adria had to stop herself from laughing a little at his warning of the danger, "I'm sure i am fully capable of dealing with whatever is in this forest, Theron." Ah. That was something else to consider, she couldn't let her powers be known just yet, not until she had judged how the residents of this island would react. Perhaps his help would be necessary to protect her identity. So, she made to follow him out, he knew the area better than she did, after all.

"You don't understand, the creatures in this forest aren't normal," his eyes started to the side as a familiar scent filled his nose. Reptile, snake like, "yeah we gotta go now."

He stepped over to her, "listen I'm gonna..," he was cut off by the crashing of large plants being torn down. The young dragon turned to see the four snake like heads heads appeared, he stepped in between Adria and the hydra.

Taking a breath, a shifted, his copper dragon form tall and strong. Quickly but gently he picked up Adria, his wings spread meaning to lift off, but it wouldn't be that easy. He cried out as a snake head from behind bit down on his wing, a second hydra.

Well, at least there was one thing Adria could be certain of. This certainly wasn't any normal part of Earth. If this guy could turn into a dragon then there was probably no need for Adria to hide her powers to stay undercover, instead she could just pass as any mortal with powers. This was something that was going prove incredibly useful, especially since they were being attacked by two hydras.
With an almost impossible grace, Adria rose calmly to her feet on Theron's back and stared straight into the eyes of one of the hydra heads, the one that bit his wing. She smiled a soft, gentle smile; it was oddly disconcerting when facing such a beast. Holding her hands above the ground she pulled up water from its depths and formed it into four large balls. Then, with a flick of her wrist she sent one into each of the hydras gaping mouths, forcing it down their airways, drowning them. Within minutes the hydra was dead on the floor.

The first hydra charged him, Theron opened his mouth, a blast of fire flowing over the multiheaded serpent. The creature dropped to ground dead just as he felt the other fall from his wing.

He looked back and was very surprised at what he found. Theron looked from Adria to the dead hydra and back again. Gently taking her in his hand, her set her back on the grownd and shifting back to his human form.

The young dragon flinch as he shifted, blood could be seen seeping through his jacket from the back injury. "You ok?" he asked more concerned about her. Another pang of pain reminded him of his injury, so he pulled his jacket and shirt off, he was quite impressive, muscled but with quite a few scars.

Adria stepped gracefully to the ground and smiled a little to herself when she saw Theron's shocked look when he returned to his human form. "I am perfectly fine, thank you." She watched as he took off his jacket and shirt and gave him a concerned look. "You however, are not." Walking over to him, she put one of his arms around her shoulder and lead him gently back to the sea before sitting him down. The water here glittered just as beautifully as back home. She reached out a hand towards it, pulling a small ball of the salty water towards her before spreading it out between her hands and pressing them gently onto Theron's wounds. Adria had a look of concentration on her face and she was biting her lip a little. Within 10 seconds, it had healed over completely. She silently thanked the world for letting her keep her healing magic as well as her control over water. Out of curiosity as to what of her other powers were working, she reached out to Theron with her mind, trying to sense his emotions.

She lead him through the forest, he could smell the approaching sea. He wanted to ask where they were going and why, but he felt that he could trust her, though he didn't know why. Soon they came to ocean, his eye filling with surprise as she healed his wounds with the water. "T-thats amazing," he ran his hands over where the wounds had been.

He was feeling gratitude, amazement and an attraction to her. "Thank you Adria," he said with a small smile. "Now, what were you doing in there?" he asked, concerned for her safety, "that forest is filled with things like those hydras."

"Are you....did you just arrive?" he asked pulling his jacket on, not bothering with the blood soaked shirt. "Come on, I'll get you to the city, how'd you get here without being told about this forest?"
