She climbed the side of the mountain her hands rough and bleeding. Her boots, worn down with holes in them scrabbling along the rock. Sarah tried to get a good grip as her hands were getting weak. But she knew she had to keep going as she brushed her shoulder length blond hair out of her face. The light was getting dimmer as the sun was setting.

Sarah pressed on though renewing her resolve as the scrambled up the side of the mountain. Above her was the cave she was aiming for. At this distance she could see the scratch marks along the sides and the burnt plants. Taking a step her worn boot slipped and her shirt got ripped on a dead plant poking out of the rocks.

"fuck" she swore to her self as she gripped what little clothing she had her dirty shirt and pants gaining more holes as she was climbing. "This dragon had better have some gold in its lair" He mumbled at her self, more hoping than anything.

After ten minutes more of climbing she finally reached the mouth of the cave. the entrance dark and foreboding. nothing else seemed to grow around it, either burned or scared away. Dragons were rare creatures and she needed the money from killing it to pay off her debts. She took her sword out of its sheath on her back her strong muscles tensing as she brandished the long sword in front of her. She wasnt able to afford a shield but she knew the dragon was old and dying, having seen it attempt to fly outside of its cave over the last few weeks on ragged wings.

Sarah walked into the cave having no torch she knew that only the element of surprise would allow her to kill the beast. Her boots barely made a noise as she stealthily walked through the cave, her above average night vision letting her see just in front of her so she wouldnt trip. Occasional glowstone rocks were placed along the tunnel, glowstone being too common to fetch any price but helpful enough to stop her from running into walls.

Deep ragged breaths echoed through the cave. Sarah was getting close, the rumbling of the dragon's snoring reverberating in her chest. Turning a corner she came across a room full of glowstones illuminating the outline of the red dragon. the beast was larger than a horse easily 10 feet tall even laying down and she estimated about 25 feet long from snout to tail. She could see the dragon sleeping as she tipped towed across the room.

Each step was like a stampede of bulls to her ears, each sound each breath scaring her of waking the beast. she was in luck as the beast was sleeping on its side, its soft underbelly exposed to the young woman. she readied her sword as she aimed the tip at where she could guess where the dragon's heart was.

Taking a deep breath Sarah lunged her sword into the dragon's chest. The sword stabbed in deep slicing through the much softer underbelly scales. the dragon woke up instantly letting out a roar as it was stabbed. Its wing buffeted the woman sending her flying across the room. She landed in a large stalagmite, it piercing her stomach.

"Aaaah fuck!" She cried out as she looked down at her impaled stomach. The dragon looked over at her as blood seeped from the wound. its claw trying to scrabble and pull it out. "You dare-" The dragon started before coughing out some blood "try to kill me". The dragon tried to roar out arrogantly.

"well it looks like we are both going to die here" the dragon said looking down at her. "You wont make it down the mountain with that wound and you pierced my lung" the dragon rasped out coughing as blood filled his lung. "I don't know who you are but i am sure you dont want to die here in a cave with one of the last dragons do you?" He asked his voice getting weaker. Sarah shoke her head too scared by the dragon's imposing presence and stunned by the pain to speak.

"I will make you a deal that will save you life little lady. You must accept my Heart into yours and you will live" The dragon spoke out coughing up more blood. "You must do so willingly and I am sure you will not like it but its the only way we will both make it out of this"

Sarah wouldn't normally make a deal with a beast, let alone a dragon. But she knew she was done for. she could feel her head getting weak from the blood loss already and the dragon was right she didn't work this hard to just die in some cave to a monster. "Fine I will take your deal" She spat out.

The dragon grinned widely at the woman. He then let out a pained grunt as he ripped the sword out of his chest and quickly shoved his foreclaw into the wound. The dragon roared in pain as he ripped out what looked to be a beating stone. The stone glowed faintly, that same light pink glow that most glowstones would make. the heart was beating slowly, the light within it fading. It was the biggest glowstone Sarah had ever seen easily as big as her head.

Without wasting time the dragon bit into the woman's chest ripping her heart out and swallowed it, speaking some strange language that almost seemed to defy the brain to even make syllables out of it he placed his heart into the woman's chest cavity. the heart glowed brightly as it sprouted new blood vessels made of flesh into the woman's body, her flesh stitching back together.

Sarah's body rose into the air as she started to lose consciousness. She could see the dragon flopping on to the ground its body now lifeless. She had the odd sensation of becoming bloated as if she had eaten a hug meal before she passed out.

When she woke up Sarah felt weird. her body felt almost numb and her head felt dizzy. "Shouldnt of drank so much last night" She muttered to her self. Or at least she tried to mutter to her self, the sound she made sounded like a dog trying to gargle sap. Her jaw felt weird like it was too big and had too many muscles.

She tried to get up on her feet but failed stumbling forward. Looking down she let out a gasp that came out as a "gwarf" as her body was now long and lizardlike. This apparently waking her brain out of her stupor. She had become a dragon!

'oh calm down i swear your worse than a hatchling' A voice in her head echoed out to her. 'I had to merge us togeather to save our lives you are now a dragon yes.' the voice of the dragon spoke again in her head, no longer raspy but still as old as before. Her neck moved around on its own out of her control as it stood her body up. 'Oh hells were a hatchling the spell was supposed to make you as big as i was, great. I am running out of energy, go find us some food before we starve' the dragon voice spoke again quieting down as it stopped.

Sarah, the new dragon started to panic trying her best to move around her breath growing quicker and quicker as she started hyperventilating. Taking a shallow breath she coughed out a small spurt of flame lighting the room around her for a second, her eyes adjusting to the light and then to the darkness. to her surprise she realised she could see fine in the dark glow of the many glowstones.

The glowstone, she placed what was a foreclaw against her chest feeling it beat. The sound of her heartbeat while alien started to calm her down. Moving her now jaw around a bit Sarah started to get used to the feeling of her new muscles as her mind quickly adapted. Her stomach growled at her rumbling out in the cave. Taking a few tentative steps on her four feet she started to walk forward.

She felt starving, an instinct took over her as she sniffed at the air. catching the smell of something tasty she started to slowly walk forward. Still new on her claws the dragon moved out of the cave, not noticing that the body of the old dragon was missing. After a few minutes of stumbling around she made it to the light of the mouth of the cave, the light hurting her eyes as they adjusted.

Sarah suddenly felt an odd tingle along her spine, a feeling like someone was walking over her grave. A pop hit her finned ears as a figure in robes appeared in mid-air at the entrance to the cave. Sarah recognized the man as the royal wizard. The wizard wore long regal robes with odd arcane looking markings all over them. The Wizard was also one of those animal people who most people think are monsters.

"A younger dragon? now that's an interesting turn around. I had felt the domain of Charthrax disappear and here you are." The Cat man kneeled down looking at the dragon. Sarah tried to run back into the cave but tripped and stumbled about. The cat Shuck his head. "Tisk tisk tisk, cant have you running off on me. A child dragon is a truely unique find I shall have to take you home with me" The wizard moved his hands as they glowed with a light green glow speaking word that once again sounded like they refused to be understood.

Sarah felt her eyes droop and her body feel numb. She collapsed onto the ground passing out rather quickly. The cat man walked over eyeing the creature. "What a strange creature. The last dragon child to be born was born ages ago. This is strange. hm" he muttered to him self as he snapped his fingers the dragon magically lifting into the air with a soft green glow around its outline. he flipped the dragon onto its back and casted an other spell. The sleeping dragon stirred as two thick tubes of flesh extended from between its legs standing erect at the spells command. "A dragon that's capable of reproducing even. This can't be. You little one are worth much more studying." He said talking more to him self as he ended the spell that caused the dragon to become erect.

Casting a rather complicated spell the wizard teleported the two of them out of the cave and off to his tower.
