Title: Chemical, Physical Kryptonite

Pairing: Nyssa al Ghul/ Sara Lance

Summary: Nyssa is a dragon and Sara is her treasure. Or will be. She's certainly precious enough.

Set shortly after the Queen's Gambit goes down, in a slightly different universe.


There are certain things that are absolutely certain in this life, the last and the next.

To railed and fought against, or merely accepted, but unalterable nonetheless.

Like her.

She is Nyssa Al Gual, daughter of Ras Al Gual, heir to the demon, and she currently enjoying the heat of the sun on her wings and the acceleration each beat grants her.

The sea below her is a mirror of her beauty, reflecting a pale shadow of the magnificence that is her.

Dive bombing the waves, while fun initially, lacks a certain something without giant squid to fight off.

She's hunting for a ship to pillage- nothing much, a bit of gold or a few jewels will do, she's not as high maintenance as some (cough Talia cough) – when a flash of light catches her eye and her interest is diverted.

As she dives, she sees gold.

She is Nyssa, and she is a dragon, so of course she carries the human that she finds back to her lair.

The human is even more beautiful when she opens her eyes, even if it's immediately followed by Nyssa being hit in the face with what was previously a priceless vase.

It doesn't matter.

It wasn't that pretty anyway. Gaudy. Didn't fit the colour scheme of her hoard at all.

Besides, Nyssa likes her already. What's a little destruction of ancient, semi-priceless artefacts between friends?
