The Dragon Maid's Brother S

The Dragon and The Bard

(The Dragon Maid series is getting a remaster next year, or when I finish five or six long chapters for this book involving Smaug's past. Important changes will be coming in the Remastered, such as new and updated lore. More stuff involving the characters added after the Dragon Maid S series and Dave.)

(I guess I can call this the start of the Broken Villain Arc.)

Inside Kobayashi's apartment, we see a long red scaled tail poking out of the Kotatsu. Kobayashi, Kanna and Tohru, who is folding clothes, are sitting on the couch. Kanna and Ilulu are eating at the dinner table and Dave, for some reason he's there, is sitting at the kotatsu, coloring in a kids book.

The kids are down for a nap in the dragon room. And Dave is rocking his new scar.

Smaug's head pops out from the kotatsu. "I want my gold. I haven't seen my bag of holding in a while."

"I stored it in the closet in our room." Ilulu informs.

"Umu." Smaug closes his eyes. "Ugh, I don't want to risk waking the kids up."

Smaug face-plants the ground and groans. "I wish I was a kid again, everything was simpler. I didn't have to save the world several times in the span of over three to four years."

"You say that now, but you did go through quite a lot." Tohru states as she folded up a shirt and sets it in a basket.

"You know, I don't think you really have ever talked about your past, Smaug." Kobayashi says. "I nearly know everything about Tohru, but not much about you."

Smaug looks up at her. "I haven't told you much?" Kobayashi nods. "Huh? Well, what do you want to know?"

"I know nearly everything about you, Smaug." Dave smiles.

"Shut up, Dave!"

Kobayashi hums in thought and puts a hand on her chin. "Well, you did tell me you harbored a great hatred for humans, but never really went into why, other than your father telling you too."

Smaug hums. "Well, I can tell you several stories on why..." Smaug looks slightly hesitant, but continues. "So let's start out at the earliest memory of mine. Let's call this story... The Dragon and The Bard."

A large green forest rests on a large plain. A sizable town resides on the edge of it, tall walls, many towers and guards. A couple of ballista bolts patrol the skies. And in the back is a large mansion.

Several miles inside the forest is a small farming community,farmers tiling the fields, their wives tending to the livestock. Children running through the town playing as birds chirp in the distance.

Yet, no one notices all the birds go quite as a large shadow approaches the town at a swift speed.

A farmer slams his hoe into the ground and stands up straight, as he rests an arm on the top of the handle. He takes off his hat and wipes his brow with it and lets out a sigh.

A large shadow overs him, he looks up only to be met with flames. Everyone starts screaming and running say as flames take over the buildings as a dragon's roar is heard.
