Katsuki Bakugou was a dragon king, a blunt but loyal leader to his tribe; his pack, a gentle brother to his dragon Red, and an aggressive beast to kingdoms that dared to travel through his territory.

But personally? Behind that aggressive personality he has, he was lonely. Most men and women his age had mates at this point, but not him. He was waiting. He wanted to see someone different, someone strong.

One evening...

As the sun began to set, Katsuki took his seat by his tribe's fireplace, watching the hunters come back from their hunts, the healers send out medicine to the sick and old, and the mothers tending to their cubs. Even though he didn't act like it, this tribe was his family in itself.

After a while, as the rest of the tribe began to form around the fireplace, laughing and talking, a scout suddenly came running from the forest, "Bakugou, I found a camp on the territory. It's recent." She said. Katsuki perked up and stood, grabbing his sword. "Alright, well lets go see what the hell is going on." He said.

A while of walking, and the scout gestured to a recently made camp. Katsuki didn't see someone nearby, so he went to explore the tent and small fireplace that actually looked impressive. He found a backpack with clothes, a journal, a hunting knife and a few potions inside, as well as a bow and arrow and a fur sleeping bag. Whoever was here just left, and they would be coming back.

Katsuki stood up, "Well, whoever is here is solo, or with a partner. They won't bother us as they don't have the weapons to fight." He stated. "Just... avoid the area when patrolling tomorrow morning, Hana." He said to the scout, who nodded.

The next morning...

Katsuki went out alone, before the morning patrols and before the newborn cubs began to cry from the sunlight drifting into their nests. He had climbed a tree a few feet away from where the camp was, waiting.

A few hours later...

As the sun had rose, Katsuki didn't see anyone come back or leave the tent. He growled in defeat and climbed back down, stomping back to his tribe.

"Damn kingdom knights... damn idiots thinking they can live on my territory..." He grumbled and sulked on his way back to his tribe, already wanting to go back to sleep in his nest. He just wanted to see if this human on his territory was a threat, but apparently they were a damn ghost because they weren't around.
