It had been a week since my predicament started and in this time i've realized that no i havent gone crazy... Than i am...i some how managed to be reincarnate after what seemed to be a car accident, the creature is indeed a dragon, named Yukiino, i do not know why i'm 5 years old, i do not know why i'm on a snowy mountain, there seems to be magic connected to this world and Yukiino has decided to become my Master and teach me the art of dragon slaying magic - appearantly it was required of all dragons to raise a dragon slayer thus ordered by the dragon king Ig- something.

Accepting Yukiinos offer of being taugh,not that he gave me a choice it was ether that or get eaten, we have now taken refuge deep in the cave where i've started my lessons of his language, seems i've been using a language only used once long ago to creat spells and that was the only reason he understood me, interesting to say the least.

Looking down at me with his front legs crossed laying on the island Yukiino stared over my shoulder while i was trying to read a book in his language which to be honest was a lot like Japanese in my old world, so having been an anime fan in my last life, learning this should be easier than if i'd been normal in my old life haha normal. Leaning closer Yukiinos breath started to freeze the hairs on the back of my neck which i learned he did when i was obviously up to no good "Inari..." this was the name he had given me after learning i had none and could not remember my past life one "are you asleep" as to answer him i did not answer him which he then took as a sign to lift me by the back of my hooded cloak - which he had gotten me - and tossed me into the ice cold water.

As i surfaced, my lungs gasping for air, i yelled out to no one in particular "i'm up i'm up" looking around in a daze i realised i was soaking wet and Yukiino had a very non-impressed expression on his face. It didnt take much to figure out what had happened so keeping my head down in slight guilt reaching the bank where I lifted myself from the water crawling towards my Masters belly to snuggle up between his bent leg and ribs "you know i wouldnt be this tired if you just give me enough time to sleep" with a Mph from his lips he decided to let me be.

The dragon has been waking me up every night at the crack of dawn to begin training, not that i dont enjoy the training, like 2 nights ago...

"Inari, its time to awaken" i was currently on the head of my Master on the peak of a mountain far from our cave, not long before Yukiino woke me from my sleep telling me we were going to train again before i fell asleep once more against his warm scaly fur, slipping off his head i began to rub at the sleep in the corners of my tired eyes. A few days earlier he had told me that we would start my training immediatly which i then proceeded in flipping him off before he rapped me in his whisker and took me to our current spot.

He had started out by teaching me how to harvest my magic with meditation "Inari, you mind needs a certain amont of control before you will be able to form and control your magic so with every new spell and every days training you need to let your mind accept what it has been taught and therefore you need to meditate as often as possible, this will also increase your level of power" before casting a spell on me that he said would over time change my genetic make-up to accustomed my body to the magic i was about to learn.

Today I am about to learn my first spell after training my mind and my body to some degree in the course of the past 2 days until Yukiino said that i was atleast ready to learn the basics of basics which was controlling a powder which forms around my hands while using my magic, which i then discovered was the air freezing around my hands because Master is a ice dragon his magic ice dragon magic is what i learned to form at will and now i was deamed ready for a spell.

Yukiino called it ICE DRAGON MAGIC: CERO which was a beam created by pointing my palm in a direction forcing the air around my hand to freeze and then expand before shooting it outwards the end product looking like a beam of white light which froze or destroyed -depending on choice of intensity - the object/s it hit. Of course when Master demonstraighted the pure sound that came from the spell caused the air itself to become a weapon as it was powerful enough to make the air tremble the beam then destroying a mountain peak a way further a head.

So with concentration seeping with determination and mostly insain excitment a grin formed on my face, eyes widing as i took my stance my body turned to the side as i aimed my right hand turning my head to look to the right - the direction i aimed for - i formed a white powder around my hand before, like the physics nerd i use to be, i imagined the pure make up of the particals solidifying in the palm of me hand forming a ball of what looked like snow the size of a golfball which was now the size of my 5 YEAR OLD HAND and then furthering my physics i transfered the solidified ice's energy to that of a cold light, because you know new energy can not be created but energy that already excists - which i get from the cold icy air around me - can be tranfered into ether light, heat or kinetic energy, which i then fire; the beam which is transfered to light and kinetic energy branched like 2 cm from my hand and misrably died with a heart sinking psssssssst sound.

Sadness.

Yukiino then tried to kindly in courage me by asking "what did you do wrong?" causing me to smile brightly and point my right palm at him saying  "i dont know, why dont you tell me" before shooting another Cero at him which proceeded to actualy, I was proud, hit him square on the nose shortly after i was hanging by his teeth as my hood was in his mouth, my arms crossed and a pout on my lips, i'm five so screw your judgment

See we have fun.
My ICE DRAGON MAGIC: CERO got much stronger after training non stop not only at dawn on the mountain but even when Yukiino went out to fetch food did i secretly practise my magic ether in the form of meditation or target practise. From my position in between Yukiino's leg and ribs i looked up to our caves ceiling which i descovered was in fact under a actaul pond with koi fish in and when the light from the sun or moon was to hit the pond just right you could see the fish swimming above our heads "their so beautiful"  Yukiino lifted his face towards the ceiling after glancing towards me to see what I was talking about "they look tasty" was what he decised to say in response causing me to look his way as to see if he was serious and stews bananas he was "haha i guess to a dragon they would" i continued to laugh which Yukiino took notice of, turning his head towards me he began to nuzzel his face against me like a cat would his owners leg, which i kept to myself of course, i enjoyed these brief moments when Yukiino acted like a needy pet instead of a freezing dragon. After spending so much time with the dragon, through insanity,frustration,sleep depression, hours spent training, eating together, sleeping together, ultimately living together we managered to form feelings for one another our relationship turning into one of a true Master and student, sometimes Master and pet and ocationally friends.

On rare but enjoyable ocations when i found myself awake for our trip to the training peak, as i would call it, he would actually do some tricks while in flight. Like the one time he decided to do a barrel roll i was so surprised i actually managed to get seperated from Master begining to fall and being as crazy as i am,  i stared to laugh and giggle, Yukiino decided to fall with me his legs tuck in, head close to me body making our way straight to the ground i ran my fingers through his webbed fur laughing and hugging his snout as we fell giggling as we did. Yukiinos eyes looked Stern as they always did but at that moment he look almost happy and content at his actions thus far
