After flying from Driftmark, Queen Rhaena led those who had come with her south to the Stepstones, to look for Baelon Waters and the ships Dany had borrowed him for his anti-piracy measures. Also keeping a look out in case Exiled Inquisitor Trajan Waters. Who on paper they were trying to avoid, but who Rhaena was trying to find.
"Where should we start to look first?" Rhaena called to the others, having to shout, as they were all flying on dragons, "I suggest nearer Dorne, and then working our way over to essos?"

"That sounds well, Your Highness," Elseyris called back, thinking a methodical approach was indeed best.

'Which ever order you feel is best Your Majesty.. I do not know enough of those we are looking for to make a reasonable guess as to their location' Yana says in a tone and volume that carries well amongst the noise around them.

Dany appeared to have no objections.

Rhaena flew them round, looking for the ships Dany gave to Baelon, thinking several ships would not be hard to spot, and looked around until they got near to Grey Gallows, thinking it would be a decent place to rest for if nothing else, and also on the look out for what looks like it might lead them to Zyraxes.

The sun had begun to set in the sky by the time they reached Grey Gallows, darkening further by a heavy storm front blowing in from the east. A slow drizzle turned into a downpour as the four dragons circled the rocky shores, looking for signs of friend or foe. A lighting flash lit up a cove below, revealing over a dozen moored ships of varying size, design, and nations of origin.

Clearly the varying ships indicated pirates, but knowing what she'd heard, baelon was hunting pirates, and Trajan had joined them, it could have been a good enough place to search.
She raised her hand, keeping it up until a flash of thunder, and hoped the others could see her direct them down closer to the ground to follow her. After a bit more flying around, Rhaena seemed to decide something and moved the dragons over the land and getting out her bow, Rhaena sped her dragon round over the top and in a vertical circle over, the sign, and then moved in from the back to attack Elseyris and her dragon, having Tyraxes shoot a jet of flame aimed at the rider, lighting up the sky, using that to fire an arrow in the riders direction also.

Dany picked up what was happening when Rhaena led them closer to the ground and made her move. She hesitated for a long moment, and steered Mith to the side, further away from Tyraxes and Caraxes. Then, the red dragon turned round and flew straight back towards the larger beast, keeping a higher ground and blasting a well-aimed jet of fire at its eyes.

Yana gives a small smile of pure joy and gives a peculiler whistle, Spinel roars and arcing around sends a jet of fire at Elseryis when Rhaena and Daenerys are out of the way, Yana when she gets close enough for a good shot would throw slender knifes at Elseryis, hoping for a fatal or crippling blow and her dragon, aiming for the softer parts of the beast.

Seeing the three women and their dragons rounding on her, pure dread punched Elsey's heart, and her mind raced in panic.
She wheeled Caraxes backwards sharply, attempting to dodge the flames and projectiles.

The bolts of lighting crackling around them paled in comparison to kaleidoscopic jets of flame that filled the sky. Alone, the flames of fresh dragons would typically be too weak to trouble their larger kin, but concentrated, their fire burned hot enough to elicit a thunderclap as the superheated air split against the cool night sky. Spine's flames went low, while Tyraxes' passed close enough to Elsey to singe her hair. Mith's flames, however, caught Caraxes right between the eyes. The tempered dragon hissed in pain as it was temporarily blinded, the thin scales along its eye socket actually beginning to fracture from the intense heat. The knives and arrow simply clattered off Caraxes' thick scales.

Spinel arcs around and once theres a clear shot Yana directs Spinel to let of another blast of fire at Elseryis, if Spinel can get safely close enough she would try to rake the duo with her talons

Rhaena cursed as she just missed Elseyris with the flames. Thinking the fire was only good for the surprise attack, Rhaena commanded Tyraxes forwards, going high and circling down, getting him to scratch and bite into Caraxes while he was regaining his vision from the fire, trying the aim for the already injured eyes, to further ruin it's vision.

Daenerys decided to use Mith's smaller size to his advantage, urging him to slip past Caraxes' head before he could so much as snap at them, so that Mithrax could bite down on the older dragon's neck with the intention of ripping it out.

Despite the rage and fear she felt, fighting three dragons at once seemed like madness, and so Elsey spurred Caraxes round, pulled upwards to get above their attackers, and made a break Northwards.

The three smaller dragons outpaced the larger one, even while battling the strong gusts of the storm. The talons of Spinel and Mithrax tore into the larger dragons wing membranes on either side, hampering its maneuverability in the harsh conditions. As the dragon slowed, roaring in pain, Tyraxes crashed into it from above, jaws snapping and talons slashing. The two dragons battled with tooth and claw in the air, beginning to plummet as the snapped and tore at one another.

Mithrax flew down after the two and attempted to either free Tyraxes from Caraxes's grasp or inflict more damage.

Yana watches anxiously as the two clash together. If there is an opening she urges Spinel to get under and gash at the larger dragons underside, if that's not possible without causing undue harm to the Queen then she directs Spinel to shred more wing membrane in the hopes of downing and drowning the pair

Rhaena felt her and Tyraxes begin to fall, but she was not going to let go until she had to, it might have given Caraxes time to fly off, which she would not allow. She clung on and kept Tyraxes slashing and biting at Caraxes.

Elsey desperately tried to break Caraxes away from Tyraxes, swearing and shouting at her attackers and swinging her flail at them, especially Tyraxes, being within close proximity.
"Get off me you madwomen! I am not your enemy!"
Amidst the whirling and screaming of the dragons in the air, she spotted the Grey Gallows nearby. If she could get away from the other three and land there, perhaps there was a chance of survival. A bunch of pirates was the least of her worries right now, after all.

Tyraxes may have been the smaller of the dragon of the pair, but he was vicious and stubborn, talons finding purchase in Caraxes' scales as rows of razor sharp teeth nipped at the larger dragon's neck and belly drawing torrents of molten blood. Yana and Dany could find no way to intervene between the two, the dragons and riders locked in a deadly spiraling embrace as the sea steadily rose up to meet them.

Elsey swung her flail as hard as she could at Tyraxes' head, desperately trying to dislodge the dragon from her own, fighting to pull away and escape.

Dany made Mith dive down at the pair and attempt to snap at Elseyris, or send a few jets of flame her way in case Rhaena and Tyraxes were to break free.

Seeing the ground coming up close, Rhaena snarled herself and spurred tyraxes to go for the jugular once more, before then finally letting go of the other dragon and flying up, whether it was successful or not.
