I'm still not too sure why, but...Draco refused to be my assistant.

I had asked her, 'Why?', but...well, maybe it'll be better if I explain it.

…

I can usually find Draco by the beach, trying to tan her skin. She has to tan it just right, or she'll refuse to go outside for days. (Kind of like that time Satan enlarged the sun. She got a nasty sunburn.)

So, I went by the beach, but oddly enough, Draco wasn't there.

I scratched my chin. "Eh? Where in the world is Draco? I could've sworn that she'd be here…?" Maybe she's training with her twins?

See, Draco's got a ton of family members that look exactly like her. Extremely similar. I've got to wonder how they reproduce, seeing as there are no males present…

...Though, that isn't something I wanted to think about at the current moment. My mind was focused on asking Draco to be my magic assistant, so I had to go look for her myself.

I decided to check by the Village first. This village is where the School is. I attended for a short while, but my grandmother decided she could teach me better things than what the school provided. I trust her intuition! I've learned a lot thanks to my grandmother!

Anyway, I didn't see any sign of Draco here...I did see an orange-haired girl, though. It was that blasted Arle. "Arle!" I shouted.

"Eh?" She turned around. "Oh, it's Witch! What are you doing here?"

"I could ask you the same thing...Listen, Arle. Have you seen Draco around? I need her to be my assistant!"

"Draco…" Arle put a finger to her chin. "Err, not today, haha. Did you try looking by the beach?"

I rolled my eyes. "Obviously. Draco's usually always there, but not today. Why would you think I'm asking you?"

"True, true...maybe try the forest. I'm sure she'll be there."

"If you say so, Arle…" I had to hope Arle was leading me in the right direction.

I tried the forest nearby the town, and found exactly the person I was looking for. So, Arle was right after all…

"Draco!" I yelled. "I have a proposition for you."

"...Not now." The half-dragon was resting on a rock. "Too tired…"

"...But, I was going to ask-" Draco put up her palm to interrupt me. "I'll pass. I'm trying to rest…"

You'd think she was trying to get a tan, but, no...apparently, she was just resting on the rock. I guess if she wanted to get a tan, she'd be at the beach, not in the forest.

"So, you're really going to just brush me off like that…?"

"Yeah. Sorry, Witchie. Come back later, okay?"

So much for that…

I headed back home. Seems today was utterly wasted. I'll find my assistant one of these days.

I mean, how hard could it be?

I wonder what made Draco so tired in the first place? Reviews are welcomed and appreciated!
