Author's Note: Follow-up to Rivalry. Sort of intense I guess? Laws of nature make me sad. :/

Also, if you wonder about the milk, BECAUSE MAGIC DRAGONS, THAT'S HOW.

Breaking Away

Seto was concerned when he couldn't find his mate. The herd had gathered, to celebrate all of the eggs that had hatched the previous week, but his pregnant mate was nowhere to be found. It made him nervous. What if he'd broken away from the herd? What if he was sick, or weak, and had left on his own? Other dragons would take advantage of him like that!

He began snuffling around for his mate's scent and found it relatively quickly. Joey was, after all, one of the few black dragons that gathered with the white dragons to celebrate hatchings. He followed the smaller dragon's scent with growing concern. It was changing. He couldn't tell what that change meant, but he knew it was important.

"—Nghaaaaa!"

Seto snorted in surprise, then rushed into the cave he'd found. "Joey-!"

Joey hadn't been as far inside the cave as he'd thought, because the black dragon's claws immediately closed around his snout. "Gaaaahhhhh!"

Seto flinched. "Nmgh!"

"Oh, 'm sorry—thought that was your claw…" Joey released his snout and instead grabbed at the larger dragon's claws with his own. "Seto, I'm—Hnn!"

Seto watched the blond's face contort in pain. "You're what? What's wrong? Should I get Ishizu-?"

"No, 'm just—Ngh!" Joey wailed quietly. "They're comin' out!"

"What? The eggs? But I thought you didn't lay eggs," Seto muttered, frowning in confusion, before his eyes widened in realization. "Oh. You're giving birth now."

The black dragon whimpered and whined quietly. "Yeeeeessssss!"

"Oh." Seto stared at him for a moment, heard a splatter and quiet squeal, then promptly passed out.

If Joey hadn't been preoccupied with his squealing and confused kit, he might have smacked him.

.-.-.-.-.-.

Seto woke to the smack he'd really been expecting as soon as he passed out. "Ow!"

"Hurry up. We're leavin'," Joey stated shortly.

Seto blinked. "Leaving to where?"

The black dragon pursed his scaly lips. "To the den, of course. This isn't our cave. Besides, if I don't leave soon, I may just bite ya."

Black dragons had always been violent when it came to the safety of their kits. Seto promptly heaved himself to his feet, examining the three kits looking up at him. "You said a half a dozen."

Joey tilted his head and frowned. "Seto, we carry more eggs than will survive because we know that raises the chance that some of 'em will. –Oh," he whispered in realization when he saw the brunet's stricken expression. "Oh, Seto, I never told ya, did I? I'm so sorry. I thought I had. Oh, Seto—"

Seto walked over to the soft, wet eggs that hadn't even had a chance and whined, grasping one of them delicately between his claws. "…You were just going to leave them like this?"

The black dragon's tail trailed on the ground as he awkwardly looked down at his feet. "…It's what black dragons do…"

"…I'd like to bury them," Seto stated, then glanced at the three kits that all seemed to take after their mother except for one with blue eyes and another with white scales. "Take the kits to the den. I'll catch up."

Joey frowned. "Shouldn't I… shouldn't I help?"

"It's not what black dragons do," Seto replied quietly. "You should take the kits to our den. I'll take care of these."

The smaller dragon hesitated before nodding a little. "Okay." Turning, he began out of the cave, releasing a tittering noise that the kits immediately began following, waddling awkwardly on unsteady legs to follow their mother.

Seto couldn't help a smile. "Ducklings."

Joey paused in the entrance of the den and looked back at him, still frowning. "What?"

"Oh. It's just… they really are like ducklings."

The black dragon offered an awkward smile, nodding a little, then walked out of the cave, the three little kits waddling in line behind him.

Seto waited until he knew they were gone before delicately rubbing his cheek against the eggs. "I'm sorry, babies."

Once he'd buried the eggs and said a little prayer for them, he returned back to the den. As he approached, he heard soft sucking sounds, so he carefully peeked into the cave and smiled when he saw the black dragon lying on his side, the three kits suckling and squealing quietly. He twisted his head around to gently lick and nuzzle each one separately.

Creeping into the den, Seto curled around his mate's other side and nuzzled the bases of his wings. "Hello."

Joey turned his head and smiled. "Hello. Do we need to do a naming ceremony for them?"

"Akako, Kisara, and Sojy. There. Ceremony finished." Seto laid his head on the younger dragon's neck and purred.

Joey blinked. "Sojy?"

"The first and last letters of both of our names. I would have said Jyso, except that sounds terrible."

The black dragon giggled a little. "It sounds like jizz."

Seto scowled at him. "Well, I didn't actually want to say that, but yeah, that's another reason I didn't want to say it."

"I'm sorry I'm so immature," Joey replied, twisting around to nuzzle against his cheek. "Can we change the spelling to use an I instead of a Y?"

"…If you must."

"I must. OW!" He twisted his head back to glare at the three kits and roared, "STOP USING YOUR TEETH."

The teeth that had been gnawing on him receded before the suckling continued.

Joey grumbled and turned to lay his head on the white dragon's back. "Jeez."

Seto chuckled quietly and licked his horns gently. "You're cute when you're mad."

"Shut up. They've got sharp teeth."
