"SKRUUUNNNCHHHEE" came the noise from downstairs
that loudly woke up
Alexis.
"CLATTER KKRRASH"
really woke up Alexis and she leapt out of bed and rushed to her bedroom door.
Strangely her parents and younger sisters weren't up yet so it looked like
Alexis would have to deal wit the intruder herself.
So grabbing a umbrella from the nearby umbrella stand Alexis quietly tiptoed
down the stairs,not that she had to
since the intruder,a rather vocal guy from the sounds of it,
was muttering about "my no good sister-in-law Genie"
not being where she was supposed to be when people made wishes
It was pitch black down there and strangely even the living room grandfather clock wasn't
ticking.
The guy kept muttering,now it was about "why did Fafnir have to go marry a djinn instead of a proper
respectable Scandinavian serpent girl"
Alexis managed to avoid tripping over the scaly long tail that was slithering about
on the rug but the pony skull lying on the pile of scattered
gold coins snared her
and over she went
"OOOF" she said as down she went and in a instant
the unseen tail had coiled around her waist
trapping her
and
"WHOOS deare" said the guy
just as a shower of glowing sparks erupted in the air and two
slitted glowing golden eyes opened
wide in the dark
and Alexis got a decent enough
silhouetted view of the intruder\\crocodile head
bats wings
big elephant sized body
4 legs with sharp talons ripping and gouging the
expensive living room rug
Yup,it was a orangey golden scaled guy dragon in a black silken
harem girl outfit
the kind of skimpy thing you expect to see
on a female wish granting djinn
not a western flamebreather
"OH $hit" said the guy as he realized Alexis could see him
"Ah" said the dragon,my sister-in-law Genie couldn't make it
so Djinn Central sent me instead to grant you four wishes"
