Chapter 2: The past of the embarrassment moment part one

During that summer, my mother had invited a friend of hers over to our house. Her name is Sandy. Sandy was architecture of modelling wooden ship in hand held model sizes and it is she who uses to work with my mother together at a knitting school long ago. She had two daughters, Jody and Rachael. She also had a son who is known to be Alan who became friends with my brother Alastair.

My mother already had made plans for the day to go walking down to the beach near Port Prospect to have a picnic. So whilst I was sitting in the garden with the girls, I overheard my brother and Alan confessing some sort of dare which sounded exciting. As they went, I wanted to know what they were going to do. So I swept away from the girls in secret and followed.

It was not long before I caught them snickering and Alan said "What are you doing here?""Nothing" I replied by shrugging. "Want to join us?" My brother offered. Alan objected this offer. "Hey man, no girls are allowed to be here. It's our boy thing so just leave us by buzzing off will ya?"

Luckily my big brother stepped forward to protect me of my innocence's. "Hey, she's my sister. I want her to come because she can be good use to us, besides she does no harm because she's not like that. So if you don't let her tag along, maybe this time I will leave you to die and never tell your mother that you got yourself eaten by that dragon".

"Fine! She can come, but you promise to not tell anyone, except us okay?" I nodded to agree with them. I did not want to create an argument so I decided to keep my mouth shut and never speak about it until they leave. Still, why did my brother mention a dragon? "Come on, let's go" my brother indicated and they both started running off without me. There's no turning back now so I had no choice but to chase after them.

It was us three alone who took the trial of the assault course. We turned from every tree and bush leaping, jumping or ducking. It was a long run but all I thought about was their plan and what dragon do they speak off. Is there really a dragon? I thought they would never occur in the Alexanderia region surely. I got left behind because I tripped over a branch which I did not see. Hence, I yelled "Hey, wait up. Slow down you guys!"

I suddenly heard howling sounds. At first I thought that they had injured themselves but when I arrived at the scene, I found them just standing instead. They loitered themselves near a bush with their backs to me and not knowing what they are up too, I had to ask them. "What are you two doing exactly?"

"Aha… Man that feels good". My brother exclaimed but it was Alan who had to lecture me. "Hey, we are just doing a bad boy's thing. It's called peeing, peeing in the bushes as you can see but we are placing it here in this ditch. We really will bust

Him this time wont we Alastair?" My brother giggled and nodded. I looked confused and then pointed out "So you both run all this way to be free from our parents just to pee into a couple of bushes? What's wrong with that?"

"Just chill Jess, its human nature" Alastair said in a cocky manner. I broke my promise to keep my mouth shut by retaliating. "Well I know that that's for sure but… Is that a nest?" I exclaimed by pointing my thin finger at the nest discover. "Yes indeed but it's not just an ordinary nest" Alastair explained. Before he could finish Alan manages to butt in yet again. "It's a dragon's nest. Impressive I must say. Join us to pee if you must. Don't worry we wont tell. We would turn our back on you so that you can have your privacy." I growled with a "No thanks!"

He then playfully explains their plan. "I thought so. I knew that you would not join us. Basically, we are trying to show how stupid dragons really are. So… we pee along here to set a trap for them. Now, we find some dragon dung and wrap it into an old cloth because we want to fool them. As they arrive, we throw their dragon dung back at their faces which will make them slip onto our pee puddle. When they fall into our pee puddle, we simply pee on them so that they stink of it and we run".

Both of them roared with laughter at this point. "That is just sick!" I emphasised. I was so angry that even I had crossed both of my arms over just below my chest. "I can not believe how silly you both are. To be honest, dragons do not often come here and even if they did, they can wipe you out easily. In addition to this, why do you want to put yourselves in danger just to get some entertainment for yourselves by weeing onto a dragon's face?"

"It's peeing not weeing. For your information we seek it as a challenge. See Alastair, I told you that girls can be fussy." Alan protested. He then picked up an old cloth that contained dragon dung inside and aimed his target towards me; so did Alastair. "Ekk, I hope you are not throwing that stinky cloth at me" I screeched. Both of my arms rose above my face and were crouching so that I would not get dunged by these fools. "Get ready Jess, here it comes".

I could not help but I started shaking. In fact I was shaking since I dared myself to tag along with them. Of course I needed to go too. As Alan notice, he queried me "I hope you don't need to go to the loo as well. I thought you said that you did not need to go". I had lied of course. "No. I'm jus- I'm just dancing". I said confidently as I started to swing my body from side to side smiling. At that point, my brother and his so what called friend shouted "FIRE!" and tossed the dung towards me.

I avoided it and the dung manages to hit a dragon which appeared from behind me and it fell into the pee puddle. As I stood up normally, I took a step back whilst laughing at the dragon and suddenly tripped over yet another branch. I then fell into the puddle of urine along side with the dragon and unleashed the pain of excreting. "Oh. . . OHHH. Man, that feels good" I exaggerated in a man like tone. At this point my brother and his friend exploded into laughter. By finding this hilariously funny, they watched me struggled to get out of the ditch at get haste. I shouted "Hey. Help, get me out of here!"

I had no option but to cast a few spell to defend myself against that dragon who tried to eat me. After those fell spells paralysed the creature by burning his nose, I climbed out of the puddle. As I was embarrassed at that moment, the boys laughed even more. I could not understand. Maybe it was that I stank of pee, No? It was until I realised then that I had manage to set myself on fire. Yep, so I was screaming blue murder by rolling around on the floor trying to remove the flames. After battering each flame my clothes were burnt. I looked at the lads and snarled but as I turned my back on them, the lads laughed so hard they cried with tears. I yelled "Don't look at me you freaks".

I turned half of my body glaring at them and roared "Hey! What's so funny now…hmm…? Oh…, OH MY…" It was then I gasped and discovered that my skirt and tights had been ripped and burnt which demonstrated a lady's bottom. I then covered my bottom with my own hands and the guys were literally crying at this point, rolling over the floor like pigs playing in a pile of mud. Indeed they cried so loud and so hard that they filled the whole region with noises. I had learnt my lesson that day. That lesson was to never trust any man if you are the only woman there because you end up doing something ridiculous and it shows how foolish you are.

". . . . . And that's what happened." Jessica concluded her story. "Really, it was the most embarrassing moment that I have ever experienced. That was the honest truth".

After hearing the story Eight begins to snigger. "No! That can't be true; surely

You have made this one up Jess?"

"No! It's the truth. Why would I lie to you" Jessica

"No way. You have got to be kidding me Jess." Eight choked.

She then shrinks her shoulders down staring at the lake with a frown. "Like I said we have that from time to time. That dragon who suffered the embarrassing pain was poor Hackzilla here." The party looked surprised. The dragon that appeared to be listening draws near and kneels himself down besides Jessica. She placed her hand onto his nose and continued. "Yeah, that why we were able to defeat him you see, it was because we knew each other. The moment he saw me, he was so attractive to me that it meant that it was your chance to strike and you defeated him in battle".

She met the dragon's eyes and presented her apology. "I'm sorry. I didn't want you to get hurt that day. I guess that's why you monsters go after humans because it is the way that we treat you by simply humiliating others because we have that freedom to do bad things. Forgive me? ". The creature nodded with respect as Jessica leans on top of him and produced a soft kiss where the monster had been marked burnt for years on end; he roared and raised his axe high. Jessica grinned and said "Thank you".

Angelo, Yangus, King Trode and Princess Medea finally came out of the bushes and clapped. Angelo then spoke. "Aw, that's very sweet of you Jess. You really do care when it comes down to it, you know caring for people. Aw, and at least you did apologised and told us your embarrassing moment. You know, before I could mention what the subject was, I was going to ask you how you knew the Axoraptor but I never got the chance to ask." Jessica held her chin up and was startled. "What! Angelo! Whoa wait a minute. Did all of you just hear my story while you were supposed to be sleeping?"
