I heard the endless crack and pitterpatter of rain outside.

When would they be here? THey said four turns past light high.

In the castle's main foyer I sat twiddling my thumbs in my thick petticoat and rain dress. At the princess academy one's highest of importance grades were given in etiquite, which included punctuality. It was VERY unlike the mistress heads to be late.

The weathering storm roared it's fury outside the castle walls, bringing me content. Waterbenders are quite comfortable in a rain storm for obvious reasons. Then I heard the loud bay of horses outside and carrige wheels against the cobblestone road. I ran and opened the huge oak doors to the outside. Accross the thick bridge I saw the carrige I'd heard, a large victorian style pulled at the head by two huge white stallions. Whatever they wanted, it must be important.

Well that was a waste of time, I thought upon returning to my castle.

I quickly made my way inside and water-bent the rain out of my hair. It had been five turns since they picked me up and the sky had grown dark with the blackness of night. So I grabbed a quick dinner in the kitchen and proceeded to climb the tower to my princess chambers.

Oh, it seems I forgot something very important. Hi my name is Jessica, I am a member of the Princess division of FaryTale. A secret society that specializes in the normal princess, dragon, and hero exchange. We fair maidens are taken to (not locked away in) a castle where we are charged to await the arrival of our heros while being guarded by an assigned dragon. First of all, let me clear up a few myths. First off, FaryTale is a real, but underground organization; very few people outside it's members know about it. It's long been a tradition of nobles to lock their daughters away in castles guarded by vicious beasts. So it was only a matter of time before an organization like this was formed. There are three divisions and one subdivision: Princess (the damsels in distress), Dragon (the vicious beast), Hero (self explanatory), and Sprites (A sub division of hero).

Recently my dragon Inevra retired after two hundred years of loyal service to FaryTale, and thus I needed a new one to take her place. Hence the arrival of the mistress heads. They took me back to the Princess academy head chambers to deliver the paper work for the new dragon I was assigned.

I trudged into my chambers, which consisted of a bedroom, balcony, and bathroom. The bed was covered in a red fine silk comforter and surrounded by curtains. A white carpet covered the floor and a huge redwood wardrobe stood against the wall opposite me.

I sat down on the edge of the bed and began sifting through the papers about my new dragon. Included was a bio and his records at the dragon academy. It went as follows:

Name: Aizen

Gender: Male

Physical: Pure white body with muscular build, brown hair and golden brown eyes. Large wings and long tail

I decided I could wait to read the report cards, so I set the documents aside and strode into the bathroom to take a shower. There was so much I had to do before the new dragon arrived; practice spell verses, check the potions stock, re finish the castle walls with fire retardant wax, check the meat stores and pantry, and most importantly recheck the rulebook.

I forced myself to relax and repeated in my head the fact that the academy made sure the distance between a dragon's consecutive assignments was atleast several days journey. I had a good three or four days to complete the necessary tasks. With that I strode into the bathroom too shower.

My entire wardrobe was on the ground and I was about to step it when suddenly.

I heard a giggle.

I turned off the water and listened more intently. The sound seemed to be coming from outside, but how could that be?. I was standing in the top room of a tower atlas a hundred feet high. Feeling uncomfortable I went out into my main room to put on my night gown, if possible I would skip the shower. I opened my wardrobe and was about to slip into a night gown-

Something knocked me over.

"HELLLLO PRINCESS!" I turned my head towards the ceiling and screamed. My room has a cone ceiling with a sort of porthole window. And looking through that window, was a GIANT brown EYE?

I covered myself with the gown in front of me and yelled "Go away you PERVERT!"

Another chuckle, "No. Now get over here so I can have a better look at you." He reached in with his . . . claw?

No, that was impossible! No dragon could transfer assignments that fast!

I didn't have time to ponder it. He reached out for me but I jumped out of the way. "Come on, now," he said as he kept trying to grab me, "If you don't come willingly I'll have to force you."

"NEVER!"

A few seconds, then slowly, "Fine then." I felt his fingers clamp down around me, and I was lifted out of my room and up over the balcony outside. I was floored. Not only was Aizen big enough to look over the balcony sitting down, but he completely dwarfed the castle on his hind legs (as he was now standing). Just like the description said, his scales were a pure porcelain white with ivory claws, and his chocolate brown brown heir was pushed back in a mullet like fashion. He stopped leaning on the castle wall and went down on all fours. I was dangled by my leg directly in front of his face, only now did I remember to try and cover myself.

He laughed. "What do you think you're doing?" He hooked his claw around the nightgown I was holding and tried to take it, "I did not say the show was over."

"LET ME GO!" I screamed trying to pull the gown back.

"Are you sure?" He cast a downward glance, "Looks like a long way down to-"

"I said, LET GO OF ME!"

He shrugged, "Have it your way then." He did as I asked, and dropped me. I'm not sure, how long I fell, all I know is that in the process I let go of the nightgown, and screamed my ass off. I could feel every rain drop contact my body as I expected to be greeted by the cold hard ground. No such luck, a moment later I landed on something soft, warm and white.

Crap.

Aizen's POV

Amused by her insistence on being let go, despite the dangerous distance between her and the ground, I graciously granted her wish. The tiny squeal she made when I let her drop was equally amusing. I lied down and after a few seconds, extended my claw out to catch her naked body. And the view I got was stunning.

Man, I thought, Only my first assignment and I already struck sexy gold.

Almost immediately she relaxed, "See," so I decided to tease her about it, "Even you know your safer with-"

"Shut the FUCK UP you BASTARD!"

I was taken aback, apparently she was so angry or scared or whatever she was feeling that she forgot about her present nudity. I decided to casually play along so she wouldn't see me admiring her body, "Ok, that was a little-"

"I said shut UP!"

"Hey, I just save-"

"I DON'T CARE!"

Ok now she was getting annoying, "What the hell is making you so upset? I haven't done anything."

"Haven't? You were peeping on me while I was changing, dragged me out of my own room, and now you're staring at me in that weird way."

Silence.

"HA! Is that all? Hate to break it to you princess, but you have a lot to learn about the evils of this world. I could have done many worse things too you. Like this. . ." I reached my claw toward her nude chest. She tried to block me, and looked down at herself,

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"So you finally noticed."

Again she tried to block me, "Get away from ME!" The poor thing started to cry.

For a brief moment I halted my advance, "Awww c'mon don't cry," I felt slightly guilty, but not by much, "You know I will never understand why you humans are so ashamed of your bodies. There's nothing wrong with showing what you've got."

"Of course you wouldn't think so, " I could hear her loud and clear even though she tried to whisper, "Mister I have nothing to hide, did you ever think that maybe I don't want to be known only for my physical appearance?"

Although I didn't show it, I was thoroughly shocked. A few seconds ago this same human was balling her eyes out begging me to put her down. Now she showed the enraged temper of a charging Minataur. For once in my life I was at a loss for words.

"Of course not, I shouldn't expect something so noble from a creature as inconsiderate and undignified as your self!"

I became visibly angry, "How dare you? Ignorant human, you know NOTHING about ME!" With little more than a flick of the wrist I pinned her to the ground, "Therefore you have no right to say anything about my habits or personality. I have done nothing bad to you this entire night, and yet you act as though I've practically RAPED you!"

"HOW DO I KNOW YOU WONT?"

"WHAT?" I roared as I brought my face down inches from hers, baring my razor sharp teeth.

She shrunk back and began to shake as a new layer of tears flowed from her eyes. Feeling slightly less enraged I graciously removed my claw from her body. She got up but didn't try to run, as she was still shaking. Though she DID attempt to cover herself again.

She finally spoke, "Y-Y-You're r-right, I do know n-n-nothing a-bout you. Which is exactly why be-being dragged o-o-o-out of my room by my legs, held out over a balcony, dropped like sixty feet, and pinned down by a giant claw scared me SHITLESS! And not only that, I had absolutely no-clue what you were going to do."

Fear?

"You even tried to grope me."

She acted out of fear? My heart sank a bit, I only wanted to have fun with her. Which I did. I reached out to her with my claw, but she quickly backed away, "ENOUGH! I've had enough of you!" and with that she bolted back into the castle through the back door.

I walked up to the door and waited for her to come back out again. First for a few minutes then half a turn, and the whole time I could hear the faint sound of crying from inside the castle walls.
