Awkward

And though I wanted to fight back-

"Didn't you say dragons didn't travel to the lower plains?" I instead thought of excuses. 

"And didn't you say you were going to change the world?"

Yeah, she had me there. 

Sigh-

This was going to go nowhere.

And I needed a ride.

"I can't guarantee you'll see a change in my lifetime-"

She shrugged. "But I'll see change eventually- right?"

Grin-

Proud grin- "Of course!"

'Me digging my own fucking grave… every single damn time…' 

Thank you, my idiotic pride. 

With that said- she transformed- grabbed me as she had before- and-

Lift off!

Instead of going down- 

We went up-

Blazing fast-

"Aren't we going to… CRASHH!!!"

Screaming- sped straight through the ceiling-

I'd never seen her go that fast-

And yet-

Actually, I didn't see anything- just darkness-

Quiet-

"You can open your eyes now," she said.
