Should Have Let Me Die

Oh? Now that was an entirely human and feminine voice I heard coming from the cave ahead. I was starting to get excited, but none of the group shared my feelings. I guess I could somewhat understand from the fantasy stuff I had seen online, but I was having a hard time trying to contain my excitement.

"I hope you don't eat me right away, Miss Marlogra. I want to sit down and have a chat with you."

'A little straight forward, don't you think? She is a dragon, no matter how much Marlogra may sound like a woman, but you will see.' -Gripton.

"What an interesting human man, I'm interested to hear what you have to say. Step forward and come to me, but come alone, the others smell like fear, and I find it most irritating."

The tone stayed neutral and lilting, but the words conveyed a different message. I turned around to my group, and Kadence's panicked face caught my attention, so I walked over to her. I took her by the shoulder and looked her in the eyes.

"Don't worry about me, I want you guys to get off this black shit. I can feel what it's doing to you guys, but it can't bother me. So, Kadence, do you trust me?"

Her panicked look faded, but it was replaced by exasperation, and Kadence sighed.

"Yes, I trust you, Hyde. It's the dragon waiting in the dark that causes trust issues!"

"I know, but I need you to be strong now, okay? Krya and Mishka come here too."

I hugged and kissed each of them before getting them to move off the black crystals. I turned to Mesh, who was still frozen in place, and sighed. Then, by grabbing a wing of his and pulling back hard, I made him topple over, hitting the ground.

Mesh got up and looked at me, confused, but I just point to the place where the girls were, and the black rock wasn't. He slowly took the hint and started to move, but I ended up pushing him the last bit. Man, what a group; it was almost embarrassing, but I couldn't think like that.

'No, you shouldn't! I don't know why the fear she generates doesn't affect you, but I think that you will freeze up solid when you see her!' -Gripton.

'Maybe, time to find out!'

I walked forward, trying to keep the skip out of my step as I did. I didn't care what any of them thought, fuck em. I was going to meet a real live talking fucking dragon!

I kept an even pace and relaxed my emotions as I got closer to the cave. It wouldn't do good to have my excited smirk on my face when I met Marlogra. Steeling myself, I walked into a black curtain.

I went blind as soon as I passed into the black veil. It was darker than the inside of a cow in here, a funny thing my dad used to say, passed down from his dad. I walked forward, and I started to hear a beautiful laugh that echoed around me.

"Now I'm really impressed with you mortal!"

Suddenly, someone turned on the lights, but the cave was only dimly lit, so my eyes adjusted easily. This little bit was nothing to a good old evolution starlight blast I was used to. The cave was pretty big, but so was the massive purple dragon head in front of my face.

"WAAAAH! YOUR SO FUCKING COOL!"

Fuck.

Well, I honestly tried to keep my excitement back, but this bitch was HUGE! I mean, I expect a dragon to be giant, but... I could barely see over the top of her head, but I had no problem seeing the rest of her body.

'Are you fucking kidding me right now? You are admiring the dragon that could eat you in a single bite?!' -Gripton.

'Shut the fuck up, old man! Don't you dare interrupt my monologue on this fucking majestic beast!'

Marlogra enormous body rose behind her, and she had massive wings tucked into her sides. They were similar to Mesh wings in many ways, but the comparison was on different levels. I was like saying a one-bedroom house was similar to a skyscraper because they both could hold people, and they had appliances somewhere inside.

I started to walk around Marlogra, but she didn't say anything, but her eye followed me as I walk around her head. If I were to guess, the head would be the size of one of the windowless creeper pedo vans, and her body was the size of a dragline crane for coal mines. As I walked, I squinted to see the glittering purple scales, but then I turned back to the eye watching me.

"Do you mind if I touch the scales of your neck? I'm curious about the texture of them, from a distance when I was in front of you, your scales looked a flat purple. Now, that im closer, I can see them glitter. I am just curious, that's all."contemporary romance

*Deafening silence*

'Yup, you had a good run, but now you're dead. There is no way you're walking out of here alive!' -Gripton.

'Can't you hear the deafening silence? Shut the fuck up! You're worse than the girls! I should have left you back there with them!'

As I argued more in my head with Gripton, I noticed Marlogra start to move, and I shifted my focus back to the here and now. She eyed me with suspicion now.

"Who were you just talking to?"

"Me? Gripton, he is being a little girl about this whole thing. I wish I could have left him with the others. I can't smell fear like you can, but I can agree that is it quite annoying coming from others."

Then I noticed it, the pair of dragon eyes that were about to fall out of their sockets. I was so wrapped up and complaining about Grip that I didn't even notice what part made her expression go fucking bug-eyed... That was a mental image saved for a meme if I ever get sent home.

"Are you saying that the almighty father of my father has returned to the mortal plane?"

"He is more of a passenger with me right now, but don't worry he is safe!"

Marlogra stood up and bowed her head to me. What the shit is this now?

"I pledge myself to follow you, if He has chosen you, then I, Marlogra, Daughter of Thungarda, will follow you."

Oh, really now?
