The two dragons hugged each other "I see you haven't made as much of a muddle of things as I thought you might, I'm pleased, Virlane, although you have left out a few facts, I think the lady needs too make her a final decision." Virlane turned and looked at his old friend with an inquiring look "and what facts have I missed?" "Oh this and that" he smiled as he put his paw over MiLady's stomach, not touching her, he smiled warmly at her "ah, good the child thrives." She looked at him in surprise "you know also, about the baby?" He chuckled again "of course, my dear, who do you think told Virlane about the child, now as to those other facts I mentioned. "If you leave the keep and its lands for good, the man left to care for them, would be Drapper, he more then anyone other has that right, since he is your Uncle, bastard though he may be, he is still your Uncle and I'm sure you've noticed his love and care for you and everyone on the land. A look passed between Virlane and Marluxion that MiLady did not understand, before she could ask any questions, Marluxion started to speak again. "I am here to offer the two of you another choice, one that I think would work better for everyone involved. I'm offering to make you both human and dragon, to be able to switch at will, after learning some basic magic commands," he mentioned the last to MiLady "there is no time constraint on this type of magic, it will last forever or until a reversing spell is spoken, and even then it must have my approval or my successors approval to be uttered. There are of course certain rules that must be followed." "First and fore most no human can ever see you transform, unless it is an emergency that can't be helped, if a human does see you, as soon as possible, all memory of the situation and transformation must be removed. As always the location of your lair must be protected at all times. Finally the child must be born human and in the human way. The first month of the child's life it will not be able to change form and will be at its most vulnerable. There after the two of you will have the delight of trying to teach a precocious child to control its own magic." Don't glare at me Virlane, there will be many clutches for you to brood and worry over but this is the only way, if the child is born a hatchling the magic will not take hold and last for it's own children and their children. There are two more conditions, this transformation must take place in the room where MiLady was born, the tower room I understand, second the sooner this is taken care of the better for the child, it has already been imprinted with being human, it must now be imprinted with being a dragon. Also, MiLady you must think carefully on this, as a human woman, you will carry inside you a child that is in human form, but will at times have the temperament of a dragon. This may be very hard on your body, you must make the decision before we go any further, if you are willing to go through, with what an old male dragon, can only call extreme discomfort. Virlane turned to MiLady and started to speak "let her alone, Virlane, she has much to think about, now offer an old dragon some wine and a bite to eat, after she has made her decision and returned to the keep, then we can talk further." Virlane returned with a large tray of food, he placed it on the desk and poured them both a large goblet of wine, to MiLady he offered a goblet of cool juice. She sat staring at the desk and absently sipped her juice, it was as if the old dragon was offering them the best of both worlds. She looked at him several times, what if something went wrong with his magic, what if he was wrong and it harmed the child, Drapper was her uncle, she shook her head, so much to take in, so much to think about. She wanted Collin and she wanted Virlane, could she have both and be happy? Was she strong enough to be both woman and dragoness? Katrina took a deep breath and made her decision, both dragons looked at her, "I will be your dragoness, Virlane. I will put my trust in your friend and do what I have too." As Virlane pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply, Marluxion tisked "not now Virlane! we have much to do before dawn rises. MiLady you must return to the keep now, eat a very light supper, then rest until we arrive." Marluxion placed a paw on her shoulder and smiled down at her "I would never have made you such an offer, had I thought it unsafe, for you or your child, and if it had been unsafe for you, I would simply have turned our pacing friend here into a toad and left him to croak for a few hundred years, for getting a human woman with child." He roared with laughter and MiLady started to giggle, then laugh as they both looked at the outraged look on Virlane's face. "Now I will speed you on you way." he said, still roaring with laughter. MiLady blinked then blinked again to find herself standing in the middle of her tower room, she supposed she needed to get used to this sort of thing. Mary walked into the room and with a look of surprise "oh MiLady, I didn't see you come in from the garden, are you feeling well? MiLady you look quite pale." "I'm fine Mary, just a little tired I think I will retire right after supper, I will be down shortly, I just need to wash up" Mary, gave MiLady a clean hand towel and left the room. After supper, MiLady went to her room and lay down, she had so much to think about, she couldn't fall asleep, but lay there thinking of what it would be like to be a dragoness, she just couldn't imagine and would just have to trust that what she was doing was right. Marluxion left Virlane studying the scroll that held the final spell and the words used to turn dragon to human and back again. Drapper busy in the stables didn't turn as he heard a voice requesting they have a talk. He simply finished his chore and went out to the garden, wondering what was going on now, Marluxion didn't request he usually just stated a demand. Marluxion was waiting and when Drapper arrived said "sit down my friend, you and I need to talk. I once told you that one day you would have your hearts desire, your desire for a grandchild, that you can watch grow into manhood, that you can in some small way help to raise." Drapper didn't look surprised that the old dragon knew these things, he simply nodded and accepted. "Your daughter sleeps in the tower room pregnant with Collin's child. She knows you are her uncle but not that you are her father, that is your choice, if you tell her or not." Marluxion watched Drapper's hands curl into hard fists, his usually easy going face turn into a look of anger. "He doesn't plan on returning to her does he? he is going to leave her to bare this shame alone." sneered Drapper, he knew only to well the burden of being a bastard and it broke his heart that his daughter and grandchild would have to know the same shame and heartbreak. "No my friend, Collin is returning to his woman and his child, but so is Virlane returning tonight to claim his dragoness. Marluxion explained to Drapper what was going to happen this night, he saw the fear in Drapper's eyes and made an offer that would never be made again. "If you desire, you can be there to take witness, but you must tell her the truth. it is your choice, but you must be in her chambers one hour before dawn." Then he was gone. Drapper sat for a long time in the garden, a slow smile started to spread on his face, a child, he said into manhood, a male child, a grandson to watch over. Drapper decided there is no time like the present and headed to MiLady's tower room. Mathew smiled and greeted Drapper "you be out wanderin late, Drapper, everything be aw right don't it?" Drapper assured Mathew that he just needed to speak with MiLady for a short while as he knocked on the door. She turned from the window "come in", she watched Drapper walk in the room, she was surprised at the surge of pleasure she felt, this was her uncle, this was family. She wanted to reach out and hug him, but didn't know if Drapper was aware that she had been told about their relationship. "You wanted to talk with me, Drapper?" she asked softly. Not knowing where to start Drapper nodded "I had a visit from Marluxion, a short while ago, he told me what is going on and what is going to happening, he also told me about the child. There was one thing that Marluxion didn't tell you, he left that up to me." Drapper tried several times to get the words out, this was so much harder then he thought it would be. MiLady handed Drapper a cup of wine and smiled trying to set him at ease. "You've even surpassed your mother in beauty, I never thought such a thing was possible, she was so lovely, so delicate, her smile could bring a man to his knee's. I loved your mother and it broke my heart when she died giving birth to you. Your mother loved me in return, long before she even met your father. Your the product of that love, your my daughter. I always thought god would curse us for our adulterous relationship, for going behind my half brothers back, instead he blessed us with you. Even though your mother never lived to see you grow into a full woman, she would be pleased to know how you have turned out. My half brother never knew that you were not his child, he loved your mother and after she died he passed all that love and caring on to you, I never wanted that to change. I could never be a father to you, I would hope to be a grandfather to your child, if you can allow that, everything considered?" Katrina sat down abruptly and stared at Drapper, her hand shook as she took a sip of her wine. This was all just to much, I can't take anymore tonight, I just can't hear one more revelation. Has the world gone mad or have I simply been kept hidden from all the truths that seem to have been swirling around me for years. "Can we talk of this later, Drapper, I just don't know what to say right now." Drapper stood up, suddenly feeling very old and tired, he had ruined it all. "One last thing, MiLady, if it won't bother you greatly, I would like to be here when you become Virlane's dragoness, I was denied being there the day you came into this world and your mother left it, I would like to be here for this, if you will allow it." He went to her suddenly "please don't cry, I didn't mean to make you cry, can you forgive me." She put her arms around him and hugged him, crying on his shoulder, for all the things that had been, for all the things she wished she had known, and for the pain she heard in his voice. she wiped the tears from her face and with a trembling voice said "please come Drapper, I want you to be there, Virlane, Marluxion, myself, we all want you to be there." She saw the tears in his eyes and with a watery chuckled handed him his cup of wine "I think we both need this tonight." Drapper left promising to be back later, reminding MiLady that she needed to rest. Mathew watched Drapper leave and wondered what was going on. Hours later as Mary was returning to her own room, she saw Drapper going up the tower stairs and frowning decided to follow him, Mathew had mentioned how odd everyone had been acting lately. Mary slipped into the room behind Drapper and let out a startled scream, Mathew rushed into the room at hearing Mary's abruptly cut off scream. Drapper stood holding a fainting Mary, Mathew stood in the doorway staring at the occupants of the room, thrusting Mary into Mathew's arms, Drapper quickly shut and bolted the door. The two dragons looked at each other with a rueful look, Marluxion looked at Mathew "it's to late for you to leave now, I don't want to hear you utter a word, keep the woman your holding quiet also." he said gruffly, putting a little fear into Mathew. MiLady smiled reassuringly at Mathew as he tried to revive Mary, whispering frantically to her, not to make a sound. "It's all right Mathew, we are all quite safe, you just walked in on something you weren't supposed to know about." Mathew leaned against the wall, well out of the way and held Mary tight, his hand clamped over her mouth, so she couldn't scream again when she came around, Drapper went and stood next to Mathew, watching carefully. Marluxion was just about to work the spell, when a green glowing orb seemed to enter the room, it bobbed here and there, finally crashing into a pitcher of water, sending both tumbling to the floor with a resounding crash in the quiet room. Marluxion picked up a very wet, green Bitsy, his sigh was loud enough to blow the water off her soaking wings. He tossed her to Drapper, "you can explain later why your glowing green. Drapper, don't let her touch anything." MiLady and Virlane looked at each other and started to laugh, easing the tension in the room. Grinning Marluxion looked at the two "lets get this done with before Trink tries to knock down the door, muttering that he and his superior parts don't like being left out of all the excitement. So saying Marluxion started to speak, the room started to swirl slowly at first, he pulled out the handkerchief that he had been keeping safe, blood on blood, together as one, the dragons blood, the virgin humans blood, to become one, human and dragon, a wind started to blow in the room and a glow of gold shimmered like a thousand candles. Suddenly everything seemed to stand still, Marluxion with a worried look, glanced at Virlane, Marluxion spoke to Virlane with his thoughts "groan, the blood is not strong enough, why? Virlane responded in kind "I don't know why, then he gasped, the brook, the handkerchief was dipped in the water." Marluxion for the first time in many years felt defeat at his paws and didn't like it one bit. He snarled out his rage as he stared at the handkerchief. Bitsy realizing something had gone terribly wrong, watched the old dragon, then suddenly twisted away from Drapper and frantically started to whisper in Mary's ear. Mary looked at the green glowing fairy, then suddenly screeched, in the clothes chest, that's where I hide it, in the clothes chest. Suddenly Mary was running to the chest, she threw it open and dug down to the bottom, Bitsy frantically telling her to hurry. Mary thrust the dress at Virlane, not understanding he stared at it, Bitsy suddenly leaned down and bite Virlane as hard as she could, drawing blood. Virlane roared and threw Bitsy off his paw, she flew back wildly, crying out to Marluxion, "the dress, they were laying on her dress, her blood is still on it, do it now Mar, do it now." The tiny fairy pushed at Virlane's paw trying to get his blood on the dress. Marluxion grabbed the dress and Virlane's paw and rubbed his bleeding paw on the dried blood stains, speaking quickly the words he had to say before dawn. The wind wiped through the room and the golden glow grew until it was blinding, a sound like a whispering of the wind moaned through the room, then the wind and golden glow were gone. All eye's turned to where MiLady had been standing holding Virlane's paw. There standing next to Virlane was a golden dragoness, her eye's a deep sea green, her wings streaked with a darker golden color, and just over her heart, a mark, two dark blood red circles intertwining. The old dragon breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the two dragons, one platinum, standing majestically next to the smaller golden one, he was well pleased with this nights work. The golden dragoness looked up at Virlane, she felt so strange, yet still felt herself, "are you pleased? Virlane" surprised to her voice a soft deep purr, she turned and started to fall, Virlane caught her and smiled, from the look in his eye's he was more the pleased and planned on showing her very soon. A giggle came from under the bed covers, Bitsy poked out her head, laughing "balance, lady, balance, its all in the tail." A hysterical giggle came from Mary who had been hiding behind Mathew. Drapper and Mathew looked at each other and started to laugh. "Drapper, why are we laughing?" asked a dazed Mathew. Drapper shook his head not sure why he was laughing. Marluxion looked around the room, smiling, "it's been a long night, far to long for these old bones, I think we should all be heading to our beds." He looked at the dragon couple chuckling, then sent them off to their lair. Drapper quietly thanked Marluxion and slipped out of the room, still feeling overwhelmed. Mary and Mathew started for the door "one moment please" they turned and looked at him, thinking now they have had it, he would surely gobble them up. "I would like to thank you for your help tonight, Mary, had you not saved the dress, we would never have been able to complete the spell, we are in your debt, our dragons are going to need faithful people to watch over them and protect them, I think those who can be trusted stand before me. "Mary could only stare at the old dragon, she started to speak and Mathew pulled her out the door, "Later, Mary me girl, leave it for later." Finally he turned and looked at the little lump wiggling out from under the covers he held out his paw and she flew to him. As they vanished Marluxion was heard to say "Shall we discuss this interesting green color and how it came about, my dear." <1st attachment end> ----- ASSM Moderation System Notice------ Notice: This post has been modified from its original format.
