Fire Spirit x Knight

wow I update??

Okay so I've actually had this sitting in my drafts for ALL THREE YEARS I was gone, and I thought I might as well finish this up. If you see a significant change in writing style, that's probably future me saying hi :)

0.16% Gacha rate chance I actually come back and finish the unholy amount of requests I have 

~~

From the glowing magma rocks of the valley to the toppling volcanoes over the vast amount of land lived many powerful dragons most of which did not make it to see the day the cookies would break out of the Witch's oven. Many cookies escaped the oven that day, almost if not all of them, but one cookie fell behind and was burned nearly to ashes until the red dragon had offered it a second chance at life. Of course, it was a for a price but the fire haired cookie refused to talk about it to anyone, anyone at all. 

Maybe it was because of that purpose that the spirit got upset after hearing about a mortal 'defeating' the red dragon. Well, he wasn't completely upset. It was more of a surprising shock with a hint of interest. It's not everyday you hear that one of the least stronger mortals managed to defeat a dragon, maybe this is what made the spirit curious and fly off into the night sky like a burning star to see the so called acclaimed 'Knight'. He flew over to the Cookie Kingdom and spotted the knight in shining armor talking to the most pink decorated cookie he had ever seen. The spirit slowly flew up on top of the castle since hiding in a tree would obviously set fire to everything and not keep in hidden, he learned that from the last time he tried to spy on someone from behind a tree. He remained silent, trying to listen to the Princess's and the Knight's conversation, Knight's voice was a firm yet respectable tone while Princess's sounded high pitched and very VERY loud. After a few minutes of talking the princess walked away and the knight headed in the way of a fountain, most likely to look up at the starry sky. The spirit stared at the knight in silence for a few minutes before smirking, a little bit of messing around with him should be entertaining. 

He zipped on down there and slowly followed behind the knight while floating. The knight, who noticed the major increase in heat turned around only to see nothing. He sighed loudly to himself and shook his head.

"There's nothing there Knight. Keep yourself together."

Though the armed protector couldn't help but wonder... was this the result of sleep deprivation? Slow strides were taken to the edge of the fountain and he sat down on its edge, tilting his head to gaze at the sky above. It was peaceful and quiet, enough to let anyone's guard down; however, it was also very chilly... Arms subconsciously brought themselves up to the cookie to try and hug himself to keep warm. 

Knight began slowly mumbling to himself, trying to fill the quiet atmosphere. 

"After all, I am the one who cut off the dragon's tail-- there is no reason for me to be scared.--"
"Oh really now hotshot?"

And in less than a second, the legendary cookie of flames had appeared right before Knight in all of his fiery glory. To which Knight responded with a very loud scream and a little shade of pink dusting his face. 

"You-! What the?! State your purpose--?!"

".--.. huh, you get flustered real quickly, don't you little knight?"

His face only flushed harder in embarrassment at the nickname he was given. He didn't even know this person and he was already giving him nicknames! Body suit wearing-- wait was he wearing a bodysuit-? Knight had no time to ponder the strange outfit choice though because he immediately got frustrated at Fire Spirit's very blatant smirk of amusement. To Fire Spirit, it was a very entertaining game to see someone who was so normally composed behave like this. Though the spirit of flames still kept in mind that he wasn't here for all fun and games... though he was very tempted to. 

"Little?! How dare you! I'-"
"Listen. I'm not here to talk around idly, though you are giving a very cute reaction, haha. Actually..."

Fire Spirit put a hand to his face, making a contemplating expression. 

"With how you're acting now, I could never believe that you cut the tail off the red dragon~ Well, certainly not when they are fully paying attention. You're too angwy for that aren't you..."

It was simple teasing words on behalf of Fire Spirit. Seeing Knight get all embarrassed was adorable knowing that the blonde prided so much on his achievement. Of course, Knight immediately responded with a rebuttal. 

"Don't you say that! I'll do anything to protect this kingdom, and that's only just one of the things I've did! I even have proof."

Cue his little dragon pet flopping on over to sit next to Knight like an excitable puppy. Fire Spirit's eyes averted to the creature for a second, tempted to poke it, but the moment he looked back at Knight he couldn't help but stop. Knight's baby blue eyes were giving such a stern look of pure determination and vigor, even if Fire Spirit continued to assert that he did nothing of actual importance. In fact, Knight was even stepping closer and closer to Fire Spirit as if he was trying to show his strength, and admittedly on his first step Fire Spirit couldn't help but float backwards a bit. 

It was... certainly unexpected to say the least. The legendary cookie look stunned for all of three seconds when he stared back at the eyes that were only a short distance away from his own, then proceeded to break into yet another teasing smile. He raised his hand and firmly planted it on top of Knight's head.

"That's almost precious-- what was that the poofy dress girl said? Knight? You're not what I'm expecting all right, but you've got a pretty cutesy way you react. I've never seen any stone-faced knight in this kingdom seem that flustered before~ 

Knight couldn't become /more/ flustered right? 
Wrong. His face was a tomato now, instead of speaking sentences they degraded to nothing more but sputterings of "I-" "you-" "how dare you-!" until they were interrupted by the distant voice of a certain royal in pink calling for Knight. Fire Spirit spared a quick glance over to the road that led into the opening of the fountain to see how far Princess was, and to ensure he wouldn't be seen. 

"But, I think I'm done teasing you enough for today. Looks like your friend is looking for you. But don't worry though, it won't be the last time I'm seeing you, mr. knight."

With those words, Knight snapped back into reality and pushed down his extreme flusterments to compose himself in front of Fire Spirit, seeking to get more answers from this strange person who seemed to have a connection with the dragons and had a strange liking for making him embarrassed (and to angrily exclaim that /no/ he would not see him again, even though his face felt like it would burn off) but as he reached out his hand to try and grab one of Fire Spirit's shoulder covers, a bright burst of flame twisted and burned out into the night air, almost as it it was never there.  

And through Princess's worried questions of why Knight look so confused and conflicted, his ears did not allow him to fully hear her words. 

He should really get more sleep.
