I don't own Red or any other Spyro related characters. I DO own Kate, one of my own characters...you'll see.
Bite Sized Dragon: Kate?
POV
"Aww, you poor little bat..."
Where is that voice coming from? I'm not a bat! Well...I'm the size of one, but I am NOT a bat! Ow...my head...blasted Phoenix made me loose concentration! Why can't I open my eyes?! Oh...the pain of my head. Feels like a rock monster smacked me in the face. I have to get up, some how. It's so...black out. So this is my consciousness? I thought it would be rather...peaceful than this. Aah, to hell with it! I'm getting up if it's the last thing I DO!
SLAM!
What was that? It sounded like a door being shut...stupid brain! LET...ME...UP! Good...my eyes are open. Ugh, so blurry. Great, now I'll have a migraine! Focus...focus old Red! I have to see where I am! Hmm...maybe I've been talking to myself for too long. Oh well, not like I can take it. Yes, that's better. I'm in some kind of room...bedroom? I was about to stand on my two feet until I felt a jolt of pain behind my back. My wing...I have forgotten about my wing! Then I noticed in the mirror behind me...a rather large mirror...well, I am the size of a fruit bat, so it's no surprise to me. My left wing...it looked as if it was rapped in bandages. Then I looked around the room. Hmp! Full of stuffed animals and dolls of sorts. Pink wall paper...I loath pink. TOO cheerful! One of the reasons I decided on the dark gems in the first place!
So...someone saved me. My guess would be a girl, unless a boy would have the personality to...bad thoughts, BAD THOUGHTS! Wait...foot steps?
"Mommy...I know but-...MOMMY, I'll be down in a minute! I'm playing doctor with Mr. Batty!"
D-doctor? Oh no. NO, NO, not again! I need to get out-OW! Rrr, my wing! That voice...that voice from before. She must be my savior. Well then, if I can't sneak out, then I'll have to show what this "Mr. Batty" can do when you tempt with Red!
--------------------------------
Although Red was cripple, he still had that spark in his eyes to get ready for anything. The sound of the foot steps soon stopped, and the door knob began to turn. Red kept ready to use his flame breath. Then the door opened. Instead of Red firing, he just stood there; dazed with confusion. The person he saw was a girl, but a very young girl. Her height looked to be 3ft 5, mostly like a chibi. She had lavenderish-purple colored hair that was short up to her chin. She was wearing what looked like a tan and brown karate uniform, but with purple flower patterns. Her eyes were like a mix of maroon and violet.
"Yay, you're up! You were sleeping like for...uh- a zillion seconds!" the little girl said while counting with her fingers. "You had lots of boo-boos, so I made you feel better." She giggled and blushed at how Red's expression was on his face. He gave a sharp yelp from the pain on his wing as it twitched. "Uh oh, you still have a boo-boo? Well..." The little girl walked up to the dresser where Red was sitting down on. "My mommy always gave a kiss on my boo-boos, and they would feel better!" Red's face went pale. 'Oh you've got to be kidding me! I may be small, but this is just disturbing!' Red thought to himself, but as the little girl was about to kiss his wing...
"Touch me with those lips, and you'll wish you never had them!" Red yelled, standing up on both feet again. His voice only sounded like a chipmunk's voice...or the cartoon kind anyway. The girl took a few steps back, with a little fear in her eyes. "W-wow! You can talk!" she muttered. Red laughed at how she reacted. "Your damn right I can, you filthy little brat. How DARE you kidnap me! You're lucky I haven't even blown down your house yet!" Red spat at her.
"B-but I didn't steal you. I saw a big birdie try to eat you up, but I caught you first. T-that's not stealing!" Red once again laughed at her under his breath. "W-what's funny?" the girl asked.
"...do you have any clue as to who I am, child?"
"N-no, but I named you Mr. Batty, right-"
"WRONG! You really don't know. I am not this 'Mr. Batty.' I'm not even a bat!"
"But you have wings and-"
"DON'T interrupt me child! Hmm...I shouldn't have to call you child. What's your name?" Red asked with venom in his voice. "M-me? Uh...I'm...I-I'm Kate." the girl replied, feeling a little nervous. "Well...Kate, I'm not a bat. I'm a dragon...the RED Dragon!" Red would have expected Kate to run out of her room, screaming for her mother. She didn't. She only made a confused glance on her face. "Um...yes; this is the point where you run. You know, screaming like a scared child." Red said while pointing at the door. "But I'm not scared." Kate replied.
"Not...scared?"
"Nope!"
"Not at all?"
"Nu-uh!"
"Not even...a tiny bit?"
"Naw! I like the color red!" Kate giggled, and her pale rose sink on her cheeks began to flush red. Red slumped a little. "NO, I'm not the color red, well...sure my scales are the color red, but I'm RED...with an R, not an r! Rrr, it's obvious you have no clue!" Red complained. "Ooooh, NOW I know!" Kate said.
"Y-you do? So then start running!" Red ordered. "Can I have your auto-...uh, your signing thing?" Kate asked.
"My...autograph? Why do you want that?"
"You're Mr. Red from Pokemon! You beat one trainer, and then another, and another, and-"
'POKEMON?! That game with those annoying little-?!' Red thought to himself, while Kate was rambling off and was about to talk about a creature named...Pikachu?
(thanks for the joke TTE XD)
"NO! I'm not from that childish game! I'm the Red Dragon! I tried to take over the Dragon Realms! I was feared by many, and-" Red was interrupted when Kate suddenly picked him up and squeezed him in a tight huge. "Aww, your sooooo cute when your mad." Kate giggled.
"Why you little-OW! MY WING! Let go of me you...you monsterous child!" 'Wait...my wing, my size. Great! There's no point in fighting back. I'm cripple, and the child-...uh, "Kate" is three times a million size of me...what am I thinking?! I've been through worse than THIS!' Red thought thought to himself, and took a quick glance at Kate's arm. There was a sudden scream of pain that came from Kate, and she let Red drop to the floor. She started to cry as a tiny bit of blood came from the bite mark on her elbow. Red only ignored it and scurried to the door, until he heard the sound of foot steps and the sound of the turning door knob.
"Kate? What's wrong honey-OH MY!" Kate's mom hurried to the now upset little girl. "N-nothing mom. Just a little bite-" Kate was interupted by her mom's angered voice. " I KNEW bringing that...that THING in the house was a mistake! I'm throwing it out...once I find it!" her mom yelled. Luckly Red was behind the door in hidding, but how long until she fond him was worrying him. He only had one wing that works. 'Hmp! One wing doesn't matter. I'll roast her if she comes near me!' Red thought to himself and smiled. He was about to jump out and attack, until...
"MOMMY PLEASE! It was my fault! I got the bat annoyed. I...I wasn't being...re-spon-sible." Kate said and wipped her tears. Red stopped in his tracks...was this girl trying to save him?
"Oh...ok honey, but if that thing causes trouble again, its out. Next time take some care into it. Animals have feelings too, and sometimes certain contact can make them upset. Understand?" "Yes mommy..." Kate sighed. Her mom gave her a quick huge and went to the door. "I'm going to attend to the vet tonight so I won't be back until tomorrow morning. I already made your TV dinner in the microwave, ok?" "Alright. I love you, bye bye!" Kate said and blew a kiss to her mom. "Kiss kiss!" her mom said, and ran off. Meanwhile behind the door, Red had a confused, yet discusted look on his face.
'Oh give me a break! I'll hurl if I hear any more of this mushiness...AND I'M NOT AN ANIMAL!' Red thought again, and revealed himself by walking in front of Kate; who was still sitting on the floor. "If you don't mind, I'll be leaving. But before I do I have to ask: Why did you do that?" Red said questionably. "Why did you bite me?" Kate asked.
"You didn't answer my question, girl: Why did you do that?"
"D-do what?"
"Cover up for me; save me from being thrown out? You and I both know that I bit you unpurpose, so the first thing someone else would do is to throw me out." Red said, a little irritated. "Well, I thought you could stay over. Your still hurt, and I want to take care of you." Kate replied, giving a little smile. It soon faded when Red turned away to the door and gave a grunt. "I can take care of myself, thank you! As much as your hospitality is charming, I do not care for such childish emotions."
"But your wing is-"
"I KNOW it's broken, but there are other ways that dragons can defend themselves. Even you should know that I have fire breath."
"Well...uh, I think its out." Kate said with a sad sigh. "What was that?" Red turned around and walked back up to her. "What do you mean...out?" Red asked. "Well..." Kate turned to the side a little, looking nervous and unsure. Red, however, was getting impatient.
"Well?! Spit it out! I know you hiding something!"
"Well...when you were sleeping, smoke was coming out of your mouth, and...and you were coughing, so I think it burned down."
"Burned down? Don't be rediculous! My fire is fine. Besides, you don't know anything of my abilities." Red laughed. He inhaled an amount of air, puffed up his chest, and exhaled with force...but no fire came out; only smoke. Red was choking and coughing on smoke. Kate rushed out the door and later came up with a bowl of water. Red went up to the bowl and almost drank all of it. "I told you." Kate said teasingly.
"How...how did this happen?! It was working yesterday!" Red said in disbelief. "No. You were sleeping yesterday." Kate added. "Wait...how long have I been sleeping?" Red asked. "When I found you it was raining out, and water takes out fire so-"
"When was that?" Red asked irritated. Kate got up and walked to her calender. "On Monday." Kate replied. "And what day is today?" Red asked impatiently. "Uh...Thursday"
"THURSDAY?! I'VE BEEN OUT FOR FOUR DAYS?!" Red yelled. "Monday, Tuesday, Wed-...hey, that's four! Your smart with numbers Mr. Red." Kate giggled. 'My wing is broken...my fire is gone...the only way I can fend for myself is my horns and TEETH! Its a nightmare!' Red sighed in defeat and sat on the floor. He didn't notice Kate sitting beside him. "Umm...Mr. Red?" Red looked up to her curious, yet concerned looking face.
"What do you want now? You probably want to torture me more now with your...cuteness?" Red spat out the word as if it was like a bad taste on his tongue. "I can make you feel better. My mom's a animal doctor, and she has that potion stuff that can-" Kate was interupted when Red jumped onto her lap. "-A potion to get my flame back?!" Red asked, now relieved that he'll be able to fight again.
"Yeah, but..."
"But what? Well, go get it then!"
"But..." Kate got up and closed the door, with a suspicious looking smile on her face. "W-...why are you looking at me like that?" Red asked, a little nervous. "I helped your booboos, so now you have to play with me." Kate giggled again. Red was only shocked and angered. "WHAT?! I will do no such thing! Now you either get that potion or I'll-" "What?" "I'll...I'll...I'll bite you again- OH FORGET IT!" Red turned around and sat down again. He had to admit it to himself...he was defenseless for the moment; unless he got the chance to bite again. Perhaps a vital body part on her face? But then Kate's mother appeared in his thoughts. What if, when Kate was injured, she found out who he was. She could call up Spyro again, and he'd be back in the lab...that wretched lab.
"If you don't play with me, I'll tell mommy that you can talk!" Kate said. Red's fears came back again, as though she read his mind. He was also in a state of shock to how a seven year old girl, a girl who he could beat with his powers...is blackmailing him.
"So...your cuteness is only a red herring." Red smirked. Kate giggled.
"YAY! We're gonna have lots and LOTS of fun!" Kate started to giggle again, and jumped onto her bed excitedly. "I have a new friend!" She jumped up and down with happiness.
'Yeeeessss...lots of fun. That "fun" will disappear from your face, once I get my abilities back..."
