The Dragons Desire (Sex Banana & I)

[3ngag3]

The sounds of galloping hooves could be heard rumbling along the plains at sunset. Riding along these plains is a young man no more than 19 years of age. The man's short brown hair flows in the wind, occasionally getting into his sharp eyes of the same color. Upon hearing of a crisis at a local town, he hurries forth. Already, he can see the flames rising into the sky. It was worse than he thought. That damn dragon must have already started torching the place. That creature that had been laying waste to hapless towns like these for months...what was its purpose? Why did it seek to destroy the peace? These questions passed through the young man's mind as he rode forth as fast as his steed could take him. Hopefully the town could hold out a little longer. Soon, Artemis the wizard would be there.

Yes, indeed he was a wizard. He specialized in magic and wizardry and was famous for slaying various monsters around the world. But recentley, he had come upon the dragon and found himself having a lot of difficulty in defeating it. Mainly due to the fact that dragons such as this one were resistant to the magic he posessed. That wouldn't matter today though. For now, he had a weapon suitable for slaying the dragon. Yes, this dragon will be suprised to find that it's resistance to magic will mean nothing in the face of his weapon. But first, Artemis had to reach the place before the dragon left...

Meanwhile, the dragon was having the time of her life. Her scales were a gleaming blood red, though they were duller in places where they were stained by blood. These small towns were so amusing. No knights with those damn painful spears. No spell-weavers to try and make her explode inside. Just tasty little maidens and their half-assed protectors. She was large to say the least, almost 80 feet long, showing her age. She was in the prime of her life. But as she gulped down a screaming woman, roaring afterward, a jet of flame lighting the sky, she smelled something.

It was that damned human that had been following her around. She turned in his direction, prepared to put an end to this pain once and for all. Her nose flared, another burst of flame coming from her nostrils. She looked fierce and angry, her wings at her sides.

And so, Artemis came. Through the roaring flames, the screaming pesants and stampeding livestock. He stopped about 20 feet away from where the dragon was waiting for him. There, he got off. There wasn't much to see other than the oversized brown cloak that covered his body and hung low to the ground. Underneath was a different story though. He wore a black vest with gold trim and his fists were taped like a fighter despite the fact that he was a wizard. He also wore a simple pair of black leather pants and monk slippers, both of which could be barely seen due to his staff poking out from under his cloak. The young man had it at the ready. This was it for him. Today, he would slay this dragon or die trying. There was no going back for him anymore.

Suddenly, Artemis twisted himself revealing his clothes under the cloak and held his staff outwards behind him. He was ready to fight now and unleash his secret weapon. "Come, beast!" the young wizard shouted suddenly. "Today, I will rid the world of your presence!" And with that, he charged forward...

The sound she made could have been a laugh. Her nose flared and the fire shot out, licking the ground around him. But then, without warning, she spread her wings and they gave three hard beats before sending her high into the air. Soon, she was circling high above, shooting streams of flame near him, but never at him. She wanted to scare him. After all, it had been a long time since she had a toy and the magic ones always made for the most fun.

But as her amber eyes glanced down at him, she noticed something different. Like he wasn't as afraid as usual. It was a little disconcerting. But she would deal with the feeling for now. So she dove now, her wings folding as she barreled towards him like a huge red comet, flames streaming in front of her.

Artemis gave a grimace to the dragons movements. He wasn't intimidated by the fire, nor by the beating of its wings. Taking off into the sky, however, was an annoyance. He needed it to be grounded in order for his new weapon to work. Therefore, the young wizard decided on a tactic. He would use the rubble from the buildings as projectiles to try and hit its wings so it would fall down. He started by pointing his staff at a rather large pile of broken stones. They began to levitate in the air and with a flick of his staff, Artemis shot them at the dragon hoping that they would clip the wings and send it low enough for him to get at it.

One of the rocks did indeed clip her wing, sending her spinning rather quickly. But just before she hit the ground, her wings spread and caught the wind, causing her to touch down rather gently. Then, without warning, her tail whipped across the ground, tearing a chunk of earth out and heading right for him. This human was pissing her off and now her wing and side hurt. He was going to be punished for this. She let out an angry burst of flame.

Success! The attack of Artemis worked to a degree and sent the dragon spiraling towards the ground. That's when he charged it, even as it was landing safely. When the chunk of ground came towards him, the young wizard continued to charge forth. When it looked like it would crush him completley, the chunk suddenly became two as it was cut asunder. There, standing in the rubble was Artemis. His staff looked very different now as the base had been removed to reveal a rather long blade. This was his new weapon. All the powers of his magic would be channeled into this sword and the combination of that with its steel would be enough to stop the rampaging beast. Artemis continued his trek towards the dragon and when he got within five feet of it, he lashed out with his weapon, hoping to slash apart the dragons chest.
