         Tohru opened her eyes, a midnight blue sky was the first thing she saw. Where was she and why was she there? The last thing she remembered was being stabbed by her lover, Izuku "Izuki" Midoriya, due to him being in an enraged state. Weird, where am I? Back home? She thought as she tried to sit up. She would've sat up if a sharp pain didn't shoot through her abdomen. "Gah," she cried out as she fell into her back. No. Not home, actually I'm not on Earth anymore if mem- Tohru's thoughts were cut off by an all too familiar voice, "well, well, well. The dragon who thought her wings couldn't be clipped was shot out of the sky. What a pity that it had to be done by me." She could see him in emerge from the darkness within her peripheral vision, the man that caused Izuki to go on a rampage...the dragon who caused her to open a portal to Earth. Kurasu. The dragon with the theta symbol, which branded him as a dragon god of something. Yes, dragons had to resort to their own gods when they started battle with humanity.

        "So, you actually plan on doing this, huh...Princess?" The dragonoid asked his obsidian colored scales gleaming in the sunlight. "Yes," Tohru replied with seemingly no control over her body. Her own body forced her to stand up and look Kurasu dead in the eyes, oh, I have to relive this again? Well if I have to, "I'll do whatever it takes in order to change this world," even if it means "THAT I HAVE TO DESTROY IT, KURASU!!!" She was reliving some sort of memory, one that most likely formed rather recently due to her being able to remember it so vividly. A silence was shared between Tohru's body and Kurasu, there was noise, but it was from her consciousness which was from the future and currently dead if not dying.

        Why is it this memory specifically, why do I have such an attachment to this part of my life as opposed to when I was a child? Is it because this was traumatic for me? Tohru thought as the silence between her and Kurasu continued, "Alright. I know I won't be able to stop you..." Kurasu's demonic red eyes shone through a sudden darkness, "But I will end your life when you do it." In just a moment Kurasu disappeared leaving Tohru standing toward a vast field of pure, green grass. She sighed before turning around, a stone empire of wonder and amazement that stretched from sea to shining sea due to being on a peninsula that jutted out into the ocean. She sighed, knowing that she'd either have to enter the city undetected or raze it to the ground with her fire in order to get what she needed. She looked behind her at her tail, she'd have to cut it off if the first path were to be taken and she'd need to be quick with the second one before literal gods decided to fight her. "Dang it."

       Tohru had her hand on a stump that was above her butt, which was only in place because she had decided to cut off her tail and intrude upon the city. Following a straightforward path to the castle, Tohru thought she would be able to get in and out with ease. She had finally come out of the windy street that was created from in between rows of housing and onto a town square of some sort. It was bustling with great amounts of people, 3, 2, and a 1. A green scaled tail burst forth from the stump, never in her life had her tail grown back this fast. The hundred or so people stopped in their tracks and looked directly at Tohru, she held a straight face before suddenly shifting into her dragon form. By now the townsmen and women were running away out of fear for their own lives screaming for any sort of help in order to protect them from this dragon. Tohru raised her neck and let out an ear splitting roar before taking off and tearing through the sky toward the castle. "So much for that first plan," her current and past self both thought at the same time. "Time for plan two," she outstretched a claw and cut through the feeble stone of the castle. She closed her hand when she came to the right spot and crushed the material within it into dust. A golden power shone within her claw as she began rocketing off into the distance and away from the castle. It began to flow within her draconic veins, giving her a sense of new found power that made her fly even faster. Knowing where her next destination would be, she barreled towards it with an intense power that would be able destroy almost everything.
