The Dragon's Secret

The Past Brought Up

Christina sighed walking in complete silence beside Jason as they were about to approach the ruin some ways beside Whiterun. They hadn't talked at all besides Christina asking Jason once where they were going. Soon Christina slipped a ring onto her finger which she was going to regret putting on in the first place, it was a ring her father had given her- something to keep her from her dragon reflexes kicking in, and only another Fahnhaelviet could take the ring off of her. "Are we there yet?" Christina whined and Jason rolled his eyes. "Does it look like we're there, Christi?" He mumbled and she soon laughed. "You used my name for once!" She exclaimed and he sighed and shook his head. "You're a strange woman." He said with a small smirk on his face while Christina smiled- she actually smiled for once in all of her time with this man she despised. "I'll take that as a compliment, Miller." She said shrugging before jumping down a hole which led to a door.

"Be ready to fight, and for anything else." He whispered and she nodded before Christina slipped inside with Jason behind her. Soon she saw a skeleton and growled before sneaking behind it and slicing its throat...or what was left of it anyway as it fell to the ground right before she was grabbed before Jason immediately ran over slicing its head off. "Thanks." She whispered and he shrugged. "Kodlak would kill me if I got you killed." He said and she rolled her eyes. "How thoughtful." She said sarcastically before making their way through more skeletons through the ruin. 

"Wait." Jason whispered and seemed to look around for a moment before he growled. "Silver Hand...." He growled and Christina only raised her eyebrow. "Who are-" She was cut off by a skeleton being shot by an arrow, soon she ran out and just started killing while Jason was right behind her. He wouldn't ever admit it, but he checked on her almost every two seconds just to make sure she was okay...and not just because he didn't want Kodlak to kill him. Soon enough Christina had been grabbed and was being held by a large man with a dagger at her throat. "End this now, Companion, or I kill her." He said and had a deep voice. Jason immediately stopped killing people and just held his sword while looking at the man and Christina. "Get your fucking hands off me you son of a-" Her mouth was soon covered and she growled while Jason's eyes seemed to flash yellow.

"Drop the sword, dog." He said and Jason growled before dropping his sword as Silver Hand surrounded them. "Lock him up, I will ride the girls' body myself." He said smirking and Jason soon just snapped. "No!" He yelled and was tackled by many Silver Hands. "Jason!!!" Christina screamed before she was stabbed through the gut with a sword and she fell over. Jason's eyes soon went fully yellow and he seemed to be mutating into something Christina never expected; a werewolf- then everything soon went black.

Christina jumped a bit when she woke up on her stomach, seeming to be beside a fire and at a camp. The one thing that she thought first was- "Jason!" she whisper yelled seeing him with no shirt on, just pants. He immediately turned toward her and tried not to sigh in relief. "Why am I...Jason I'm naked." She mumbled then glared at him while his eyes widened, soon knowing what she was thinking. "I needed to bandage you up! I didn't look at your lady parts, I swear!" He whisper yelled and she rolled her eyes as he sighed and stared at the fire.

"What happened?" Christina asked quietly and Jason just shrugged. "I turned into a werewolf, ate the rest of the Silver Hand and carried you out." He said before looking at Christina- she had the goofiest grin on her face. "You do care about me!" She said chuckling and he rolled his eyes trying not to smile. "You're not shocked I'm a werewolf?" Jason asked quietly and Christina snorted and shook her head. "Nah, I have four brothers that are werewolves." She said and his eyes widened a bit before he just nodded and cleared his throat.

They didn't say a word for a long while before Jason spoke up. "I did look at the two scars on your back. What are they?" He asked quietly, still just staring at the fire while Christina looked up at him and when she didn't answer, he looked at her. "I could ask the same about your scars." She whispered looking at the many scars he had on his chest. There was slight anger in his eyes for about to seconds before he sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "I was abused as a kid by my father after my mother was killed." He said quietly and Christina nodded slowly. "I-I didn't mean to-" "I know." Jason snapped and cut her off while she sighed and looked at the fire again. "Remember how I looked in your journal...? I'm curious as to who Daniel is." He said trying to bring up conversation. "My abusive ex. I have a son that's his back in Orlais. I thought he loved me...turns out I was just a toy. Just another fucking toy." She hissed and shook her head at the memories.

Jason nodded slowly. "My ex fiance's name was Lana...she was killed by those damn Silver Hand...she was pregnant with my child too, now the only family I've had is gone." He mumbled with tears in his eyes before he growled and shook his head. "I should be over it by now though, so don't show any sympathy." He mumbled and Christina nodded slowly. "You never told me where the scars came from." Jason said and raised his eyebrow while Christina sighed and lied on her side, making sure to cover up her lady parts as she looked at Jason. "I'm part dragon. It ran on my mom's side of the family, I was twelve when I got them. Apparently when half dragons go through puberty, they grow wings too. Probably the most painful experience ever in my life." She said chuckling slightly and he nodded.

"Might as well get some rest, we need to get back to Jorrvaskr tomorrow bright and early." Jason said and Christina nodded. "Mkay...night...Jason." She mumbled as she closed her eyes and she would never know it, but he managed to smile a bit when she did, "Night Christina."
