Chapter 152: That's Going To Leave A Mark

I turned and gave my big winged friend a hug, watching out for big wings. He was looking stronger than ever, the man was jacked, what had Marly been feeding him? I let go and looked at the two of them, both looked to be in great shape, They hadn't just a couple days ago...was I missing something here? 

Wait, what the fuck was going on with Mesh's face! His pointed face morphed into a man's orangish face with scales that ran up to his face. 

"What the fuck is going on! That's fucking cool! How are you doing that?"

I was shaking Mesh a bit hard, and my friend put his hands on my forearms to stop me from shaking him to death in my excitement. I let go, but I was still excited; how did this happen?!

"Both of us evolved last night, now we can both change," Mesh said with a big smile as both he and Marly flew into the air.

I watch in pure rapture as my best friend, the scrawny little lizard who could barely speak less than a month ago, soared into the air. The same one that ran and protected his princess, and begged for my help. Now I watch him burst into a brilliant sparkling orange dragon, the purple Marlogora floating beside him, and then a thought intrudes my brain to ruin my moment of happiness.

Why did those fucking dragons have dragon flights? Those two floated, so why...I would have to ask the girls or Marly. Still, I turned to my wives and they all rolled their eyes and waved me off. There was food still coming out, and it isn't a day that your best friend turned into a dragon, but how did they evolve without me?

I was up in the air near the two dragons, and I shifted into a dragon, but I kept my size equal to a normal dragon size. Mesh was wearing the most god-awful-looking smile, just all razor-sharp teeth.

'Stop that Mesh, that smile will scare the city! You look awesome! I like the color, I've seen all the dragons in Karstia, and there isn't a single one that looks like you!'

'There will be more! I'm sure you guessed that we evolved, but it happened when we talked about how we felt about each other and what we wanted for the future, and those things lined up. Then, we were both blind for a bit, now I really know your pains, hehe.' -Mesh.

'That's crazy, and really good, meaning that people don't need me to do it! I can't be every wear at once, so this will give more people a chance that doesn't get to see me as much. So, Marly, I have something eating at me right now about the dragons. If you all can float, then why do you have mating flights?'

Marly's dragon form rolled her eyes and then told me.

'There was an idiot hero long ago that visited the dragons, and convinced the males that only real dragons had mating flights. Somehow they believed him, but it was later found out that he was a mischievous hero that could influence anyone or things choices. Parsh Deem, was the man's name, and stories of large-scale messes have popped up all over history, and some people believe he is still alive. If he was, I would like to eat him.' -Marly.

'I might just let you, but he sounds like a pretty dangerous guy, how did he get close?'

'I don't know how much range he needs, but he was greeted as a friend, and his actions seem innocent at first but, the trend caught on fast and the females had almost no say.' -Marly.

If this troublemaker was still around, he could cause problems in the future. The three of us changed back and then dropped out of the sky, back to the ground. Parsh would be a problem, people like him always got in the way. 

On the ground, all the food was ready, but Mesh and Marly asked if they could join me. I said it would be a great idea for the rest of the dragons to see what was possible. I lift us, a pair of Dragon-kin, five humans and the Badger-Kin, and Tree-kin girls, and the food into the air. In a couple movements, we were at the ledge of Greg's cave. 

The sounds of women laughing were coming from inside and we all entered, to see the tables filled. Wings were everywhere, and all eyes turned to me and the helpers, and then all the covered plates of food that they could no doubt smell. There were lots of the same trays so I placed one of each at the tables, and the rest I put on the side for the servers to pass out. 

After I was able to unload all the food, I brought Mesh and Marly with me to sit at the table. I told the other two Dragon-Kin to go find a place to sit, and both of them gave me strained looks, I sure they would never ever have an experience like this if they lived for another five hundred years. So, they could just go, figure it out.

My wives we all waiting and I introduced Tamika and Dalmia to Mesh, and then we stepped aside for Marly to talk to the girls. I moved around the table and sat between Wendy and Tescelle, after kissing Nuwari and offering Mesh a chair. The tops from our food were removed and the food looked amazing.

Piles of steaming steaks, roasted vegetables, roasted potatoes, and even something like a caesar salad with no cheese or lemon, but it was alright. As we ate I asked the girls to invite others over to come and talk with us and share our food. When they did, I would, or Mesh would talk about the changes he went through. Then he did his face-changing trick, but he could actually turn his head into a dragon's head, teeth, and all.

Everyone was thrilled to see the change, but Marly chased off a few of them we were trying to get to...familiar. There were a couple awkward moments, where the women would strike ridiculously provocative poses, a couple almost made both Mesh and my eyes almost fell out of heads. Then our wives tried to help the process but smacking the back out of our heads, I mean one of the dragon women just walked up in a skirt and turned around. Then she bent over and backed up, but Marly was there and caught her left cheek with an open hand that sent the girl tumbling.

That was the worst, but not the only antics, the women afterward were a lot more timid. After everyone was finished and the girls seemed more comfortable I gathered everyone at the ledge in front of the cave. I didn't want to take a bunch of freshly turned and hungry dragon women back home, I figured that it would be better for them to have a bit of time to adjust to their new bodies and to feed them. Now, it was time to take everyone back home.

Before leaving we had a long talk about keeping your eye closed, just to make sure that I wasn't on puke clean-up duty. Tescelle stayed close and showed me where I needed to go and I located the area, giving her a kiss before putting my hand up in the air. My signal for eyes close. The entire group went quiet, and after the count of five, I took us home.

To my surprise, not a single girl puked, maybe it had to do with being dragons or maybe they actually listen. Though, there was one person that didn't seem to listen very well. Greg was retching onto the street corner, with his hand on a lamp pole. There were a pair of girls that rushed to help them, and I was tempted to tell them to just leave him.

We had arrived at a new part of the ground with many new houses for the women to share, and a center in the middle of it all with people to help them get adjusted to not being a monster/dragon anymore. I wanted this to be a place for new people to the city to come to get used to their new lives. There was a group of women waiting to help organize the new tenants, and after that I was free!

I was about to guild Tamika and Dalmia to the house, but Nuwari and Tescelle grabbed them and disappeared, leaving me and Wendy with the group of dragon women milling around behind us. I turned and took Wendy's hand, pulling her in for a short kiss, today was our day, or did she and Arrentia switch? I don't know, but she was here now and looking as beautiful as ever.

"Would you like to go for a date?"

"A...date? What's that?" Wendy asked with a puzzled frown on her cute face, putting a finger to her lower lip. 

"Well, we just go out and enjoy places together!"

"Haven't we been doing that all day?"

"No, silly. This is where we go out and get for and have drinks!"

"But, didn't we just eat? And there are drinks at the…"

I dragged her by the hand behind me, what a turd. I was trying to be cute and she was being so painfully oblivious, but she was a dragon. So, she would have never heard of any of this, so I would just have to show her!
