Malachi D'Honaire

"Uh, Fred and Malachi D'Honaire...." Fred the Manfox says nervously as I and my mate look over at him. "You're not going to believe this.... but....."

Ten minutes later, I and my Fred are staring down...gaping at the manfox, trying to get our minds to understand what he's said.

Fred? I mentally project at my love. I....don't know what to think of all this! I mean, in the nearly 5,000 years of my life....I have NO idea what I should do!

We'll do what D'Honaires always do, my mate sends back, with a sudden flash of inspiration. We do what honor dictates. I...just wish that I had a clue what it dictates....for theirs a storm within my heart!

Indeed, I feel the situation causing great distress in my noble love's heart, and my black blood also cries out for....some type of justice....vengence. But....that would NOT be the honorable thing to do.... I also know that my Fred still feels that he at least is honor bound to do something to see to the care of his offspring by Alicia...and her. All in all, he's flying around on his wings in circles....trying to catch his own tail.

Suddenly, I smile, for I know just what would be the honorable thing to do! And the great thing was, it wouldn't even involve bloodshed (which would put a definite cramp in the friendly relationship between the Manimal Nation and Ethiopia....the nation I and my husband have sworn allegiance to.

Ah, but I have an idea, I send back, comforted by the word that has become my foundation to my life ever since I had come over to the Christian faith. It was honorable, and it would definitely put some matters to rest, finally. Honor. It had a way of....guiding me at the darker times in my life.

I explain what I sees as the honorable course, and he mentally smile and nod.

That would take care of the problem.....

It wouldn't solve ALL the problems present here, but it would kill the more vexing ones.

But first....I have a few questions for our little princess, I send back to the silvery dragon that was my mate and husband.

We both smile and shift into our humanoid forms, and Alicia 3 blinks in surprise at what is said, next!

1. "So!" Dragon Fred says with a smile, and I attempt to not laugh at Alicia 3's expression. "When's the wedding?"
