I am not guarded by a
dragon under my castle; the dragon is actually my pet. We decided to turn the
story around, traditional is overrated anyway.
Oh I almost forgot to
introduce myself. Hi, I am a Princess, of a far, far away land. And while
waiting on a knight to come and safe me, instead I end up with a dragon! Err…
Don’t worry; it’s a very friendly and smart dragon. Yeah, I never thought I’d
have to write this queer, extraordinary story, but then again anything can
happen when you are a Princess of a far off land, right?
Anyway when we met,
this Dragon used to be like any regular fairyland dragon you’d expect it to be.
And by that off course I mean vicious, fiery, angry and scary. How did we
become friends is really amazing and out of this world experience, thus would
be hard to interpret it into words. Sometimes I ponder on it profusely to find
if it was the dragon’s good heart under those rough crimson scales or my
supernatural powers of some kind? Since I am a princess I may take the credit
for anything I like, hence it must be me. Being a princess I do have a
supernatural power of…. Of… we’ll get to this later.
Moving on to the
significant part, where I do my magic and tame this ferocious beast!
One day I told the
dragon how bad it is to keep killing all the knights. The dragon answered
rather obediently, “The knights, who got killed, never deserved you in the
first place, my princess.”
And I was like “Oh
please, they don’t manufacture good hearts anymore”
Dragon became unusually
quiet, but after that day I felt an ease to open up to him. The more we would
talk the more we realized the bond we were oblivious to for so long. Amazing how
the dragon who lived under the castle knows the princess better than any other
weird stranger knights. All of a sudden everything started to make perfect
sense, falling in place like a jigsaw puzzle.
Anyone with a good
heart could realize the dragon has always been more loyal and protective of the
princess. More responsible, steadfast and forbearing creature you’d ever meet.
Once you have experienced the dragon’s love, you know you wouldn’t find it
anywhere else. The heart it holds is just too big to ignore or imitate.
This time when another
stupid knight comes, Princess and the Dragon would be long gone. Among all the dangerous
things we forget to see the good in people, for instance Dragons can fly!
We wouldn’t need to end
the story in the old fashioned way for the Princess and the Dragon is already
living their happily ever after…
