....the ground. He was afraid that it would ruin the grass so he quickly picked it up in a talon and flew as far away from that beautiful place, found a new/fearfully unfamiliar cave in the far north, melted the ice to create a thick, strong shield over the opening as it refroze. And then fell into a long restless sleep. Unsure of what the world would look like when he awoke...
 
Unfortunately, as he was a cold blooded reptile, in that icy environment his metabolism slowed right down, and he didn't wake until mankind was numerous and overrunning the world. Finally when mankind invented global warming, the sun started to melt his icy cave, and slowly fingers of light and warmth began to penetrate the ice and play over his body. But he only actually woke when...
 
..approached cautiously by a very curiously frightened man, sent out from his people to investigate the strange creature sleeping loudly on the outskirts of their land. This man picked the "short straw" and was told not to return without proof that he has, at least, touched the dragon. So he creeps up slowly, sees the loosened talon and the single scale, now lying on the ground. The dragon notices movement and only opens a single eye. Just as curious as to what this young man is & what he means to do...the dragon decides not to frighten him away & lets him pick up the scale and carefully/quietly move back to a safe distance before running back to the people of his village, with the proof they were seeking...
 
At this moment, a rather loud rumble reminds him it is breakfast time, and that he hasn't eaten for sometime. Thinking this man creature might lead him to an easy meal or two, he slowly rises, stretches and sets off following the man.
 
The dragon reached the countryside where the people already waited for him in the village center. They were all armed with scythes and forks ready to engage the furious beast in open battle. However the dragon was not trying to attack them, being fairly hesitant to come closer to them. The peasants took stones from the ground and tried to cast the dragon out of their home. But in this very moment the man who picked up the scale came in to protect the dragon. In those times, taming such a magnificent creature was only told in fairy tales, but the noble man wanted to win the trust of the beast. So he turned around and gazed deep inside of the dragons blue pearly eyes ...
 
And the dragon saw him as a good being; trusted him, & in time became the guardian of all the people of his village!¡ There were many more adventures to come as they grew and prospered...
 
But that adventure came to a halt when they noticed someone rehearsing for a music video and thought that it was their chance to be in the spotlight. They then saw that Lady Gaga and Eminem were filming a music video that involved knights and dragons.
 
So, the nobleman rode on the dragon's back over to where the auditions were being held while the dragon pretended to be a ventriloquist (with the man on his back acting as dummy) and the dragon said.....
 
"Will you get off me?" The dragon roared, shaking the nobleman off his back in a frenzy of scales. The nobleman fell into a dimensional rift with a gasp and appeared....
 
to be surprised at the dragon's mercurial shift of mood, since it had been the dragon's idea to audition in the
first place. "Maybe he's hungry," the man mused. "Hunger can change anyone's mood. I will get him a....."

"Better out than in," said the dragon, complacently, regarding the nobleman. "May I have the rest now? This stuff would kill a mere mortal, but it's like mother's milk to one of my breed." The dragon blinked modestly. "If milk was what our mothers fed us, that is. My mother, of course did no such thing."

The man laughed a little unsurely, but headed toward the washtub that held the remainder of the repast.
 
There he bulimically vomited all of his dinner, which was a funny backfire on what he planned to do to the dragon, and pretty disgusting at it, considering that that washtub held the remainder of the repast, only to be tainted with some puke.
