Look at me for who I am

Somethings wrongs.... or weird...

The moment I felt safe, I really couldn't take it anymore and shifted back to my human form. It was not wise to stay here especially with that person knowing that there is a dragon around. Who knows what he is up too. Still I was basically in the middle of no where and seeing my leg bleeding, I knew I must have scrapped something big. This didn't looked like a wound I woulf get from a tree but rather a stone. No surprise since I landed pretty damn hard on the floor which had stones laying all around.

Me: Shit....

Once again, I tried to sand up but failed to do so. It hurt awy too much. There was after all a deep open cut right down my leg. Moving it alone hurt soo much but staying here wasn't an option either. 

I have to get away from here...

Gosh am I dirty...

Never good for a wound.

There was a lake somewhere close by...

I wonder if I can get there....

But first I have to stand up.

Thanks to me scrapping not only my leg but also my wing in dragon form, my back was also bleeding and the pain was killing me quite dramatically and not literally. If anything, I hated pain the most. This was something I was afraid of ever since I remember. 

Me: Great move Mal.... just great...

There was really nothing I could really do and so I stetched myself to grab a stick and help me up with it. It looked solid and it worked but the pain of my back made me hiss. Still I had to get away and so slowly but surely I started to go to the small lake with that waterfall.

Me: *Sigh*

It took me ages to get here but I needed this and I knew it. Once I arrived, I let myself to the ground slowly and skooped up some water since I was close to the edge to actually clean my dirty and shaking hands. The pain was definitelly messing with me. Once I was done with this, I turned around and sat on the the ground putting my leg into the water. Of course it hurt and I hissed in pain but I knew how dangerous it could be having an open deep wound like this and not have it cleaned up.

Who knows how long I've been there but all of the sudden I heard some rusteling. 

Me: WHO'S THERE?!

Ben: I am sorry, it's just me.

By now, my eyes were the same as in my dragon form since I was ready to transform and do whatever I have to do to survive.

Me: ...

Ben: You're the dragon aren't you?

Me: So what if I am, what does it have to do with you?

Ben: Nothing... Here catch!

Just like that he threw something towards me. Of course I caught it and looked at it however I was quite baffled seeing what he just threw at me.

Ben: Put it on your wounds.

Me: Why are you helping me?

Ben: You are hurt and it is the right thing to do.

Me: Hah... you think I will trust you?

Ben: No but at least give it a try. It's not poisonous.

Me: ....

Ben: Plus it can linder the pain.

Me: Thank you.

This might really look weird. A villainous kid saying thank you. Oh well you know from time to time I would say thanks as well. I mean why not? The time called for it plus I really needed it. 

After a bit of time which is exactly the time it took me to move my leg out of the water to actually apply the medicines he gave me, I could hear him coming closer to me. At first this was really weird. There was no need for it but I also didn't feel any malicious intention coming from him so I let him be for now.

Ben: Where did you come from?

Me: Can't a dragon just be free and fly around?

Ben: Not that I know about any dragons around here.

Me: Then I must have turned the wrong way.

Ben: Should I help you with your back?

Me: I would appreciate it... and no other throughts or you dead.

Ben: Didn't had any.

Me: Thanks for everything.

Ben: Yout welcome...

He did as he told me and just applied medicine before giving me some space again. This man was a mystery for me.

He really is weird...

Approaching a dragon without fear....

Helping a stranger without anything in return...

I wonder what he wants from me?
