The second page of the  Aetias
With my Artemis and his Tempus taking on a bet to see who can capture the target first.
Hope you enjoy.

---

After a brief introduction, the two settled to split the information among themselves, although Artemis politely requested the smaller Tempus to not interfere with her work. Tempus, eager to prove himself to the gorgeous dragoness, suggested they have a bet to see who could capture the target first.

"A bet? What kind of bet?"

"Could be monetary, I am good for that.
But I personally would like a look at that enchanted artifact of yours."

Artemis would bring up her arm, looking at her bracer. "You mean this? You realize this is not just some cheap trinket. I'm not going to just give it away."

Tempus would shake his head.. "I'm not planning to keep it, just study it and see if I can incorporate it's properties into my creations. Though... If your not confident in your skills?~"

Artemis would frown and get up. "Oh, a wize guy, eh? What about what I get when I win." She would grab him by the shirt now.

"W-well I me-"

"How about this?" She opened her mouth wide, showing off her throat to him. "I get to fill my belly with a Little, Tasty, Kobold. Mine to do with as I please, sounds fun?"

Tempus would hear her words, but his eyes would be so entranced by her maw and the rippling throat behind it that he wouldn't respond right away. The dragon blushing, and having to focus hard not to have his wings shoot out to his sides. As it was his tail had a small spark of magic glowing. And he was definitely sporting a double boner under his cloak.

"What's wrong? Lost your nerve?~" she teased, still showing off her maw.

"What? N-no that sounds like a fair enough deal..." His voice betrays how much he liked the view. As did his tail which while no longer glowing, was wagging a little.

Artemis closed her maw and put him down now. "Cool! It's a deal then."
As she gives him a small innocent smile, as if she hadn't just threatened to devour the small dragon.
"Uh... yeah, sure." Was all the little dragon could mutter after seeing such a sight.

The two would walk out now. Artemis looked down at Tempus. Noticing a slight humming from him and giving him odd look. He sounded a little too happy about this bet.

As they left, they didn't notice a pair of eye watching them from the shadows.

"Hear that? She has some magical artifact on her." Echoed from the large armored suit.

"Sounds expensive?"
A response slithered from the robed figure.

"Hopefully they don't meet any... trouble on the road?"
