Requiem of Destruction (1x1 with DarkMudkip)

((Ok~~))

Everyday Megohime would either spend hours clawing the living hell out of the doors of her specially reinforced stable, or sleeping. She was always in a foul mood, and always scared off anyone who dared come close enough.
 
"Megohime-dono!" Okane called excitedly, her short brown hair bouncing as she ran, "Megohime-dono, I brought you some snacks! Will you like me now? Will you let me pet you this time? Kaa-san was very upset when you nearly took my fingers last time, but I'm confident!"
 
A loud slam came from the otherside of the door, probably Megohime slamming her tail against the door to simply frighten Okane. For a dragon she sure was intelligent, but Akihime had told her dragons were almost as smart as humans, if not on the same level.
 
She moved over cautiously but she was still excited, "I have some fat for your coat...the fats always make the dogs' fur look all shiny...and there's some sausage and beef here, too...!"
 
As Okane got closer, she could see Megohime inside the stall, partially curled up with her back to Okane. One step closer and Megohime picked up her head and slowly turned to look at her, raising her lip to show her sharp teeth to her, her red eye a slit.
 
Okane stopped and smiled disarmingly, "You're safe, Megohime-dono, I'm not going to hurt you. I just want to be friends...I only have Sayuri, and Kaa-san, too...I hoped maybe you could just let me sit and talk with you..."
 
The dragon laid it’s head on the straw covered floor, snorting and staring at her through the bars. When the girl got too close, she snarled and showed her teeth, but didn’t try to lash out.
 
Okane tested the distance steadily, taking one step closer at a time, "Do you have any friends? I don't mean to sound rude, I was just wondering in case you left anyone behind when Kaa-san brought you here!"
 
Nothing went unnoticed, when she got too close, she slammed her tail against the door, making a loud thud. Could dragons speak? Probably not, but if they could, she wasn’t speaking.
 
"Ah, gomen, that was incredibly insensitive..." She apologized gently, before tossing a piece of fat over the stable door, "Here, I'll stop teasing you now with this food...!"
 
Megohime watched the fat fall to the floor and just looked at it, letting out a soft snort before closing her eyes and resting her head on her clawed feet. Was she not hungry? The guards had said she wasn’t eating lately, maybe she didn’t like the meats they brought her.
 
It was useless talking with something that couldn’t speak, but the beast did open its eyes again. Slowly and silently she got to her feet and moved closer to the door, pressing her snout through the bars and showing her teeth, staring down the young girl. It didn’t seem like a display of aggressiveness, no, it looked more like she was grinning.
 
Okane moved closer, smiling, "Your teeth are very lovely." She complimented, "All of you is lovely, to be honest. You're very pretty, Megohime-dono."
 
As soon as Megohime thought Okane was within close enough proximity, she snapped at her, trying to grab a hold of her face and pull her through the bars. Alas, she wasn’t close enough, but her teeth came dangerously close to her face.
 
Megohime slammed her head into the door over and over until she couldn’t hear the girl any longer; how many days had it been since she saw Masamune? Was he still nailed to that cross? Was he even alive?
 
She could barely feel him, but she knew Masamune was still there. "Megohime-dono?" It was Kojurou, the new unwilling general of Akihime's forces in what was Oshuu. He looked tired, but was relieved to see Megohime was alright. "How are you fairing? Have you been let out yet?"
 
Megohime moved closer to the door when she heard Kojurou’s voice. She rumbled softly, giving a shake of her head. She hadn’t left the stables since Akihime first brought her there, and every moment was miserable.
 
He moved and opened the stable door, "I've been to Masamune-sama. He's alive but isn't doing so good. Akihime is busy so you have time to stretch and see him. But please come back when I come for you." He said
 
Megohime didn’t have to be told twice, shooting off so fast She nearly knocked Kojurou off his feet, desperate to see Masamune. She reached him in no time, chittering softly and nuzzling his side gently.
 
”I’m fine, but I can’t believe you’re still here, God’s...” A soft shine escaped her and she judged his legs. ”Take the strain off your hands, stand on my back.”
 
”I’m being kept in a horse stable and being fed pig scraps by a little kid, this is the least humiliating thing I’ve done so far.” She rumbled.
