Acnologia's pov

I woke up to a warm feeling against my body. I opened my eyes sleepily, yawning slightly. I blinked a few times before realising what the warm thing was.

I had my arms wrapped around Miyako and one of her tails was placed across my lower section like a blanket. I sat up, my face red from embarrassment.

Moving must have woken Miyako up because she moved a little then sat up, yawning as her ears fell back against her head. 'So cute' I thought, my heart beating hard against my chest.

"What time is it?" she asked, rubbing her eyes sleepily. "It's morning" I replied. She stretched her arms up, arching her back slightly before checking the bandages.

"That's gonna scar over. Dammit. I was doing so well in not getting any scars anywhere but my face as well" she grumbled, ears down and cheeks puffed out with her arms crossed. 'Stop being cute' I thought in my head.

"Why does that bother you?" I asked. She looked at me and blinked. "Your joking right?" she asked. "No" I replied, confused. "Didn't you read what was on the statue outside said" she pointed out.

"Seriously. Your so self centered" I grumbled. "You try being a girl and keeping too many scars from covering your body" she told me, crossing her arms. I just rolled my eyes.

"You know what, I'm bored" she stated plainly. "We just stopped talking like 5 seconds ago" I replied. "Yeah well I'm bored. Here's an idea, let's share pasts" she stated. "Why?" I asked.

"Because it's fun" she told me, ears going down in a pouty way as she puffed her cheeks up. "Fine" I replied, turning away to hide my blush.

"Great. You go first" she stated. I sighed. "I'm not that interesting you know" I told her. "Just tell me" she grumbled.

"Fine. I was in the army back in the day. My job was to fight against the dragon's and I was given dragon slayer magic. This eventually turned me into a dragon from excessive use of my power.

At the time I had a wife and after I turned into a dragon, I had to get help to turn back so I could go back to her. After that, we had a son-" I explained but was cut off."

"What did your son look like?" she asked. "He had black hair and red eyes just like his mother but his hair had my thickness even though it was short. My wife also said he had my temper and he had a lot of piercings since his mother had a few piercings and I had a lot of tattoos. I have no idea if he got my dragon slayer magic since he died 10 years ago along with my wife" I explained.

"That's a shame but wait did you say 10 years ago? How old are you?" she asked. "I'm in my 30's" I replied. "Pfff. Your a baby to me" she scoffed, flicking her hand. "What age are you?" I asked.

"Let's see. It's X385 right. I'm 384 years old" she stated like it was comman. "What?! You look like your in your 20's or 30's not your 380's!" I yelled. "I've always looked like this. Even when I was a month old. I'm a god. Did you expect the gods to make a guardian god a baby. I would have been useless that way" she joked.

"Whatever. Its your turn" I told her. "Oh. Right. Alright, prepare yourself. My life is pretty strange" she told me, stretching out her hands. "Just tell it" I told her.

"I've been around since 1 year after the world was formed and I've never left this island. Back when I was still quite young. I met a guy nd I fell for him. We actually got into a relationship but that didn't last. He kept getting older and I stayed the same. He died in front of me of old age.

After that I swore off love and continued to protect the island until these guys came. I fought them but lost and they chained me up. I had my powers stripped from me but not my god status or immortality for some bisare reason and was left to rot in that dungeon.

I was in there for 50 years, getting beaten and told that I would never save the islands citizens. I was practically starved, only given one meal a week. It was hell on Earth.

Then after 50 years, a shadowy being approached me. It offered to give me my powers back but stronger and that I could take revenge on those who had done this.

Of course I agreed. I got my shadow magic back but it felt stronger. I also got my ability to change into my animal form again but this time I could change my size at will which was something I could never do.

I got out of the chains which weren't magic restrained since they had sensed I had lost my magic a long time before. I attacckedd anyone in my way and soon the leader, who had changed since I had been taken down to that cell, challenged me.

I killed him but that didn't seem to satasify me. I changed into a fox and grew to the size of a dragon and went on a killing spree. I destroyed everything and killed anything I saw that moved, human or animal. I remember a lot of blood and that some humans tried to take me down and did injure me but I killed them. I remember tearing people in half, crushing people and throwing people about.

When it was all over I was covered in blood. Most of it wasn't mine. The whole place was destroyed, blood and dead bodies scattered across the place. I didn't have to rebuild the shrine since both this building and the statue outside have aan enchantment to stop them from being broken but after that, I spent the last 100 years in solitude" she explained. I was shocked.

"What was the injury you got during that?" I asked. I expected her to point to the sccar on her left eye but instead she moved up her fringe to show a massive scar that spread across the entire area that was covered by the fringe, only parts of her skin showing. Her eye was cloudy and white and had a long scratch mark across it.

"Like I said. They tried to fight back" she sighed, letting her fringe fall over her eye again. I frowned and pulled her into a hug. "That must have been hard to deal with" I explained, rubbing my hand over her back. "I dealt with it" she replied.

I stayed like that for a while until she eventually fell asleep on me, snuggling her face into my chest. 'I swear. She's trying to kill me with her cuteness' I thought, running my fingers through her hair.

Bet you guys weren't expecting that surprise mention of Acnologia's son. I'm wondering how many of you figured out who it was. I'm excited to see.

Also should I draw Miyako with her fringe back so you guys can see what her scar looks like? I'm thinking of doing so.

Anyway. Bye for now
