Dragons (on hold)

Chapter 9

Lexi woke up the following day in ropes "what? Where am I, Joshie? Help, please" they begged.

A man walked into the room "awe, poor little Dragonair," he said, "what, where am I?" they asked, "you thought you could hide from us, little thing, but you can't hide from the dragon slayers my brother could smell you from a mile away you have Dragonair blood running through you," he said, "yes, I do, but I'm no dragon; she's gone," they said.

He tightened the ropes, smiling "donot lie to me, kid a Dragonair dragon never dies everyone knows that I bet that blood will sell for a pretty penny you could help so many people, my dear," he said.

He cupped their chin, smiling as a fire lit in their eyes, spitting at him "don't fucking touch me" they said, "fiery, I like it maybe I should just kill you now, but even if you die, you'll come back a Dragonair can not die, but the dragon queen of the moon says you are the most powerful kind of dragon to find one is rare, don't you know to stay home with your mommy?" he said. "I have no mom, only my brother" they said, "you have a brother my brother only smelled one Dragonair," he said, "we're not blood he adopted me and gave me a home, unlike my mom, who threw me away," they said, "awe, poor baby, that makes you even more powerful; let's dissect you" he said.

He grabbed a sharp knife, cutting into them on the neck, letting blood fall, collecting it in a jar filling it half full "I'll be back to collect more the next day your my blood bank" he said, "let me go please" they begged. "Awe don't worry I'll be back in a few hours this won't last me long" he said, 'what did you do with my brother" they asked, "nothing we left him alone" he said, "he'll be worried about me" they said, "don't care your ours now" he said, "please" they begged.

He cupped their chin again "poor baby, I bet I can sell you for a high price eveeryone would love to get a hand on you "mary, clean her up and dress her" he said, "yes, sir," she said. "I'm not a girl; I'm non-binary," they said.

He slapped them "you'll do as I say," he said, "yes, sir," they said.

The woman cleaned up their wounds, dressing them in a pretty black dress and black underwear that went down to their knees and black heels to match "I can't walk in these" they said; "you won't be walking" he said.

He grabbed a chain, put it around their neck and dragged them along "good girl," he said.

He dragged them to a lab, where he saw everyone working "see, look at how much good you're doing, Dragonair," he said, "thar's not my name," they said, "then, what is it? Princess?" he asked.

Lexi's eyes glowed golden "Lexi is my name," they growled, "oh fiesty, finally showing her dragon now," he said.

They ripped the chain off and threw it at a computer "I'm leaving, and you can't stop me," they growled.

He grabbed them "leave, and I'll have that little brother of yours dead" he said, "he's my older brother he can defeat you if you try anything" they said.

He touched their breasts, smiling "your mine" he said.

You slapped him "I said don't touch me ever, creep" they said.

He placed a knife next to their neck as they piped up "oh, I see the knife scares you does that mean I win" he asked, "please, I just want my brother why does everyone want a piece of me I'm just a kid" they said. "your only fifth teen come if you be good I will treat you well if you are bad I will not hesitate to hurt you Lexi my darling I only wish to farm you for blood and children" he said, "no" they said, "no?" He asked, "I want my brother, that's all I will not ever lay an egg for anyone, no more Dragonair" they said.

He sliced into Lexi's neck, collecting more blood "don't worry, I will have you prepped for a fine gentleman who would take you as his bride" he said.

They punched him, running as far as the eye could see, running back to wherever Joshie was all they wanted, sniffing out the air and finding his scent. Joshie JOSHI! "Sis, where did you go, sis? I can hear you where did you go?" he asked, "someone took me, brother, please come back," he said. "I'm trying to find you, brother," they said, "but your dragon is gone," he said, 'apparently Dragonair dragons don't die ever," they said, "oh my well come home," he said.

Lexi ran, "Amber!" They screamed.

Wings came out of their sides, and they flew off towards the smell of Joshie rather than the other way around because that's all they wanted.

Meanwhile
"Sir, are you okay?" he asked, "of course, Dragonair I will make her mine" he said, "of course, shall I send someone after her?" he asked, "no need; I will hunt down my prey and make them mine" he said.

Meanwhile
Lexi knocked on the small farmhouse Joshie opened up, and they ran into his arms "Josie! " they cried., "I got you, sis don't worry I'm right here it's all right are you okay?" he asked.

He checked over their bod "your neck," he said, "they harvested me for blood they wanted to breed me, big brother" They said, "oh sis, it's okay. I'm right here I got you" he said.

He carried them inside, closing the door behind them "brother, will you tell me a story and hold me in your arms?" they said, "of course, I'll always be right next to you," he said.

He sang a lullaby instead, making them close their eyes and smile "I love you, Joshie, " they said.

They opened their eyes again, looking inside their heads "Amber, thank you," they said, "of course, I told you if you're in trouble, call my name I'll come I'm always here for you, baby girl" amber said.

She put her head next to them, purring as Lexi petted their head and then fell asleep for the night.
