Nineteenth returning Jump Girl for Month of Pink; Toa from Dragonaut: The Resonance.

-:-

Toa loved Jin more than anything in life. He was her master, after all. Which is why she didn't like any of the other females, like Akira, who would dare come near him.

The pink-haired dragon glared at her rival for Jin's affection, while Akira glared right back. Off to the side, Akira's dragon partner, Makina, smirked in amusement since the two girls were more so pouting at each other rather than glaring.

"Why won't you leave Jin alone?" demanded Toa, narrowing her eyes.

"Why won't you?" retorted Akira, returning the gaze. "Just because you're his partner doesn't mean you can claim him as a lover."

"Yes I can!"

"No you can't!"

"If I may," spoke Makina, gaining their attention. "I must question why you both love Jin when he is very rude to both of you?"

"Jin might be a bit…off putting, by he really does have a soft side to him!" explained Toa, not understanding how anyone not see what she sees.

"I have to agree with Toa for once," added Akira. "Jin can be very sweet once you get to know him!"

Toa and Akira could tell that Makina didn't buy that for a moment.

"I must say, Toa. It is quite strange that a dragon could fall for a human the way you have."

The dragon in question could only pout. "You're just saying that because you're siding with Akira. I bet you're going to help her try and win Jin, too."

"On the contrary," replied Makina, earning Akira's full attention. "Akira may be my partner, but I will not get involved with her love life unless absolutely necessary. For example, if Jin hurts her, I will kill him."

Both girls gaped like fish at Makina's admission.

"M-Makina!" squeaked out Akira. "D-Don't hurt Jin!"

Toa let out a growl as she glared at Makina. "I don't care if you're stronger than me. If you hurt my Jin, I won't hold back."

This only earned her a few small laughs from the busty, motherly water dragon. "I should say that what I said also applies to you, Toa."

That confused Toa. "What do you mean?"

"I will be honest. I don't like Jin. His attitude is appalling. So if he hurts any of you girls, Sieglinde included, he WILL feel my cold fury."

Both girls gulped in fear for Jin, Toa more so since she was the boy's partner and didn't want to lose him.

She really hoped she could find a way to win Jin's heart and keep him alive at the same time.

FIN

Once again, this is based on the manga version. Akira and Makina actually live in that version.
