Miss Potter's Dragon Girlfriend
Chapter One: First Task Is Getting There
It was just before the first task of the triwizard tournament… or the quadwizard tournament if you wanted to be correct.
This problem arose when a girl by the name of Crystal Potter found herself forced into the tournament along with the three others who accepted participation of their own volition.
Let it be known that Crystal was only fourteen, and as such at a serious disadvantage in comparison to the near adult part4cipants of Victor Krum, Fleur Delecour and Cedric Diggory.
And when the girl found out that the first task was deadly dragons? Well lets just say she didn't take it too well.
"S-sorry I'm *hic* L-late…" Crystal said as she arrived in the preparation tents… totally drunk.
"Miss Potter are you drunk?" Ludo Bagman, one of the main reasons for the tournament's return after so many years of being gone, asked in confusion.
"You *hic betcha, I expected myself to d-die so I though 'h-hey * I might as well go out blaze of glory and get something to dull the pain before I go to my death. B-boy did it help *hic*, I can barely understand what emotion is right now!" The underage drunk giggled as she teetered on the spot.
"Crystal, I'm afraid you cannot participate in this state. I'll be calling to get Madam Pomfrey to get you a Expelling Solution to get everything out your system." Albus Dumbledore said in a tone of disappointment.
"You can't *hic* d-do that Dumb-bee-door… I choose to go drunk and *hic* I remember no rules stating I have to not be… in f-fact there was one year where a participant went drunk for a *hic* b-bet."
"For goodness sake, Albus. Let the girl go. We are wasting time as is just having this conversation and we haven't explained the task to our participant." The man's friend Mad-Eye Moody growled.
"Ahh yes, we do need to get started don't we!"
Any other attempts to get Crystal sober were stopped as Ludo Bagman presented the task, collect an egg from a dragon. The dragon was chosen from a bag of animated miniatures… and oh boy was Crystal's a doozy.
It was by far the deadliest dragon and held the name of a Hungarian Horntail and she was going last.
The other participants went through their tasks with varied success, I mean they did survive and complete the task… but they still got some wounds in return, some worse than others. Then came Crystal's chance to shine.
The girl got up from her seat, wobbled slightly as her brain failed to comprehend the sudden movement and drunkenly walked to the arena's entrance.
Crystal took one look at the dragon she faced, spiky tail-club poised to strike and ready to spew flames… and laughed. She slumped back onto the rocky floor unceremoniously and pulled out a flask that was hidden in her sleeve and drunk deeply.
"S-so… what did they do to get you here?" the girl said abruptly
The dragon's head turned in confusion… more like a big puppy than a deadly dragon.
"W-we *hic* aren't s-so different actually… I was forced here too, brought in front of all these *hic* nice people to dance like a circus m-monkey."
Crystal continued to speak her stream of drunken consciousness, talking of tales about stupid abandoning friends and how teachers were half the time idiots or assholes… this proceeded for about fifteen minutes.
"You are an odd human, did you know that?" a voice spoke up, husky and feminine. Crystal looked around in confusion, but soon her eyes looked up with recognition only a drunk person could attain.
"O-oh *hic*, I suppose parseltongue is all lizardy creatures then? H-has anyone told you you have a nice voice?" Crystal said… to the dragon in hissed tones.
"too many males have done so… that is one of the reasons I fake being a nesting mother. Do you know how hard it is finding just the right rock to copy into a pile of believable eggs?" the dragon replied.
"I don't, but I know how hard it is to f-find a key to a spec-hic-ific lock in a bunch of other keys… they were flying too, it was super weird." The girl said back.
"I suppose that fits the situation somewhat." The Hungarian Horntail returned.
"Would you like *hic* s-some whiskey? I heard its nice to share a drink with your killer before you *hic* go o-out." Crystal asked as she presented the flask to the dragon, who had come increasingly closer during the allotted time
"You know I could actually use a drink... give me a moment."
From underneath the dragon an odd circle formed… which proceeded to absorb the winged reptilian being, causing it to vanish. A few moments later the circle pulled something out… but it wasn't the dragon.
It was a woman. A very nice looking and tall woman. Her skin was slightly pale but still healthy looking. Her hair was a brown-gold hued green, which fit nicely with her golden reptilian eyes. Her body was tall, voluptuous… but the onlooker's gaze was mostly staring at the barely covered dragon's tail and horns. A few moments later and they realised the cloak she appeared to wear was in fact wings too.
"I've never heard about dragons becoming humanish be*hic*fore, how d-did you do that?" Crystal asked, her inner surprise getting blocked out by her current drunken state
"My father was a very interesting dragon, that will be all I tell you. Now give me that flask."
The witch handed the humanoid dragon her drink, who took a huge gulp. A moment later she belched, releasing a huge flame into the air.
"That is some strong stuff, how can a little girl like you handle this?"
"The cupboard was where my uncle kept his booze… I got really thirsty sometimes." Crystal giggled.
"Cupboard? Tell me more."
Crystal did so. Telling the dragon the bad living conditions she had to deal with in her early life as she drank with the Horntail.
"If I wasn't worried about being hunted down by humans with magic I would kill them myself… but I have to say they raised a cute little witch…" The dragon said, her words slightly slurred as she took a swig of the amber liquid… which didn't appear to stop flowing from the normal sized flask.
"Are you *hic* hitting on me?"
"Would you mind if I was?" The Hungarian Horntail(?) hissed.
Crystal didn't reply in a conventional way… and instead tackled the dragon-in-human-form to the ground with a force surprising for her short body and planted a deep kiss on the dragon's lips. The kiss grew stronger as the dragon accepted it too, pulling the girl deeper into her grasp with her wings, covering both of them with their large span.
Onlookers were extremely confused, having spent their time watching a humanoid dragon and 'girl-who-lived' hiss at eachother. Males were also mostly unconscious all having seemingly picked up an illness that propelled them backwards from a stream of blood expelling from their nose.
Five minutes passed before the cover of draconic wings unfurled, revealing that Crystal was snoring cutely atop the dragon lady.
The Reptilian being in human form stood up a few moments later, carefully moving the sleeping girl into a comfortable carry position in her arms. She then proceeded to head over to the 'nest' and picked up the golden egg, placing it into the grasp of the young triwizard champion, who curled an arm around it subconsciously.
(In the stands, the awake males groaned out in disappointment as the dragon lady's form was now covered by Crystal Potter's napping form)
With one more look at those in the stands, the dragon woman entered the champions tent, where the school nurse Madam Pomfrey stood in preparation of healing the tournament challengers.
"Who are you?!" The woman asked.
"I am… asssss you ssssay… the task." The supposed Hungarian Horntail replied with a hiss and a sharp toothed smile. "Do not worry about my lovely mate here. She is merely… ssssleeping off her alcohol intake."
The nurse just stood there in shock, leaving the dragon woman and her 'lovely mate' to make there escape… directly into Hogwarts castle, which the girl's drunken ramblings had clued her into.
[*The next day*]
Crystal Potter awoke with a semi-banging headache.
"Urgh… did anyone get the plumage on the Hippogriff that barreled over me?" The girl moaned as she massaged her lighting-scarred forehead.
"I should be asking you that… you are rather aggressive when you want to be, my love."
The fourth tournament champion's eyes blew wide open as she turned in her bed, her gaze meeting ones reminiscent of a gold serpent's.
Suddenly, it all came rushing back to her.
"Oh my god… I had sex with a dragon lady."
"It was more of a heavy petting… with biting from one of us. You have quite the fangs, by the way." The dragon replied.
"Oh… sorry… I never did seem to catch you name."
"Taler, my name is Taler."
"R-right. Taler… sorry for talking your ear off… yesterday?" Crystal apologised.
"Nothing to say sorry for, love. It was a breath of fresh air to me, I've mostly been hearing the 'hey look at me, I have the biggest wing span' or 'look at me, I can breath fire so hot it melts this rock' from attempted mates my entire mature life." the dragon replied, letting out a hissing chuckle later. "Of course, none of that matters now that I've found you."
"What do you mean by 'now that I've found you?" Crystal commented, falling into the reptilian tongue herself subconsciously.
"That's easy, just take a look at your shoulder." The girl did so… and squeaked a little as she saw a small, pink dragon tattoo starting from her shoulder and curling into her neck "I marked you as mine, and you did the same to me."
The dragon woman slipped off part of the blanket she covered herself with, revealing a similar marking, but the dragon was more serpentine and its wings were feathered.
"This means that we are together now. And if anyone takes you away from me… I'll just have to rip them limb from limb."
"Oh… oh my…" Crystal whispered to herself as her cheeks turned almost the same colour as the tattoo on her neck. "I… I'm so sorry."
"Why would you need to be sorry. You're mine now. Nothing else matters in this moment."
"You won't want me soon, you'll see that I'm a waste of space…" the girl hissed out quietly.
"Whoever planted those thoughts in your cute, little mind will face my fire soon. I wouldn't have completed the marking if I didn't find you worth it. I would have killed you if you didn't interest me."
Crystal's blush grew stronger. Even if the Taler's words weren't exactly orthodox… something about them still made her feel warm.
But maybe that was just the fire-breathing lady very close to her in her own bed.
THIS CHAPTER WAS PRACTICALLY COMPLETE AGES AGO. IT JUST NEEDED THE FINISHING TOUCHES.
