A/N-Thank you to my reviewers, I'll try to update weekly until I finish this.
Beldan awakened to bright lights, his race wasn't accustomed to the bright lights of the surface world. He could hear voices talking about him. Eventually, his hearing became more refined.
"Oh my what is the thing?" said a feminine voice, one he categorized as Food-warmer, due to the scent of food coming off her direction.
"Well, I think the old ghoul might now, I just came out of the N-n-neko- Ken atop it."
Beldan categorized it as Displacer-Lady.
"Waah! A green thing came to eat us!" Water-thing said.
Beldan got one look at a small violet thing, it smelled of fire, it looked old. Deciding it was odd he named it Old Smoke.
Old Smoke began poking at it with a metal and wood rod, Beldan was more than a little angry at being poked. He used one of his wings to bat at this annoying thing.
"Well, it's still alive, we can take it to the hag and she'll know." Old smoke said.
Beldan was scared, hags ate kobolds from time to time. He might not go if he pretended to be dead. So, for the second time that day he feigned death.
Soon he was being prodded by a short human doll with fur atop her head.
"This is a kobold, not usually seen this far from Jusenkyo. Kobolds are creatures that take our children and sell them back to us for shiny things. Kobolds are so far diluted from our dragon friends that they can only redeem themselves with years of servitude. It seems that this one has the favor of the Heavens." Human-doll prodded his wings. Beldan was scared so he intoned a bolstering melody.
His rich, tenor voice surprised the NWC gathered around. Beneath the din Xian Pu, Mu Tsu and Xian Pu's father hatched a plan that might get Shampoo married to Ranma yet.
"Aiya! GreatGrandmother, there are customers waiting for ramen." Shampoo said.
"Tell your father to cook it and then you serve it." Cologne snapped in Mandarin.
Shampoo disappeared and made a show of serving ramen to two salarymen.
Shampoo need to think of way to get scale of kobold, so she can steal airen's heart.
Having a distraction by Shampoo's latest plan, Beldan invoked another useful thing about his wings, the extra height they afforded him when jumping.
Beldan jumped out an open window and made a break for the hills. Along the way, he scared a couple of girls with his appearance.
"Oni! Oni! Oni!" the girls ran away screaming.
Beldan looked around confused, he saw no demon. Scratching his head with a wingtip, he looked around.
"Hold foul demon and prepare to meet the Justice of Heaven! I Tatewaki Kuno, rising sar of the fencing world and Blue Thunder of Furinkan High dispense it!"
Kuno allegorically said.
Beldan was a kobold, and his racial pride overtook him and he unfurled his wings and concentrated. A shimmering draconic tail enveloped his own, rather inadequate tail. Kuno charged him intent on spearing him. Beldan slapped him into a canal with the tail, then as was custom for kobolds wandered over to his knocked out opponent and sniffed him.
"Ugh, ugly human make big stink; Beldan leave now." Beldan turned and scraped a little dirt on the human to mask the smell a bit. Then with a flap of his wings bounded over the roofs of Nerima.
A/N- I'm looking for input on how to continue with Beldan Scalysnout. Review and if I use things in a chapter you will get recognition in an Author's Note.
