Chapter 5: The Incredible Transformation
After a long day of sculpting outside, Enero decided he needed to get out of the house. He was getting a little crazy in the head. Plus he needed to shower.
Why do you need to leave when you have a perfectly good all-in-one?"Shut up. I'm a little stir crazy."
Enero made his way down to the local gym. His first few days in Dragon Valley were spent running there to use the bathroom every couple hours because someone couldn't afford to buy a toilet for the lot.
It wouldn't have been an issue if you'd let me put it outside."And let people watch me. No thanks."
I watch you."That's bad enough."
Anyways. Spending time at the gym got him a little nostalgic. There were things in his life that were still missing. Of course he had his best friend Kearney and his new friend Breadan to fill a little bit of the void. But it wasn't enough. He needed someone to fill the ache in his heart.
"Vie. You're a social dragon. What do you suggest?" He asked his little friend hopefully.
Vie let out a mix of a caw and a rawr that went a little like, "Cawwrrr!"
"I love you too!" E smiled down at the little dragon. Vie rose up in the air as sparkles rained down around him.
A flash of sparkles appeared showering down upon Enero. He squinted his eyes against the brightness as he took a step back. Over in the corner a pot, a clock and a candelabra looked on the scene in awe. Vie exploded in a flash of light, and in her place a woman appeared.
"Enero?" The woman looked over at him before looking down at herself. "It's me."
E took a questionable step towards her. He stared at her for a moment, reaching up and pushing back her hair. "It is you..." He exclaimed excitedly.
The woman smiled and opened her mouth to speak.
E continued on in his excitement. "It really is you, Vie!"
A frown crossed the woman's face. "Vie? Who is this Vie?"
"Cawrrr!" Vie called out as she floated back down to E's shoulder. 'And I thought this gentlemen was supposed to be bright, cawrr'
Same here."No. It's me Susie. We made faces at each other at the Dragon Tavern?"
"Oh right, right! We're friends?" Enero asked rather oblivious.
"Yeah. I've been to all you're parties. I always bring the best food. Is there something wrong with your neck?"
"No nothing at all, just thinking.
You mean the weirdest looking food..."Hey she's a chef, you know. She has to know a little something."
How do you know? You didn't even recognize her until a minute ago."I...uh..."
"Who are you talking to?"
"The voice."
"Should I be worried?" Susie asked taking a step back.
"She can't hear you, can she?"
Not yet at least. Give it some time."Uhh...Anyways. Where are we?" She asked looking around at their surroundings.
"The men's bathroom at the gym."
"Charming." She replied with a slight frown. "And what are we doing here?"
"How about I show you or explain it via song?"
"Woah." Susie raised a hand to her chest as she recovered. "What song?"
"Hey I just met you..."
"But-"
"And this is craaazzzyyy. Here's some flowers."
"Take my ring..."
"Have my babies!"
Woah, getting a little ahead of yourself E. You still live in a shack, remember?"Oh right. Well...just marry me." He ended the last part with a tune.
"Yes, Yes, Yes!" Susie exclaimed with joy.
So Enero returned to his lot with Vi-I mean, Susie. Where they enjoyed a nice quiet ceremony next to the ever romantic Sculpting Station and a large chunk of Clay. Congrats.
"I, E, take you, Vie, To be my wedded wife. To have and to hold from this day forth."
"And I, Susie, take thee, Enero, to be my wedded husband. To paint portraits and to bear his heir from this day forth to the end of my days."
"Cawrrr. Kiss her already!" Vie voiced impatiently.
Alright, Alright. You've said your vows so now it's time to get to work. Let's see, Bookworm, Chrarismatic, Excitable, Friendly and... Unlucky. Well I guess that explains how she ended up with you, E."Hey! I love Vie."
Point Proven."Ah, you must be the voice my husband spoke of. I'm Susie. And you are?"
Oh I like you. See that E, she's polite. My name is C-Rex"Pleasure to meet you."
"Crex? What kind of name is that?"
You've already used that line E."Oh...Well... Let's get out of here, Vie. I know a place where we ca-"
Not so fast, Susie. E's not getting any younger."I hate you so much. You know that?"
You remind me every day.Next time. Fishies in Wuv!
