drabble for "Swing"

[hwango]

The journey has been long and fraught with unimaginable peril, but at last I reach the dragon's cave.

I struggle against fatigue even as I creep silently into the darkness. Luck is with me, though, and I find the beast slumbering and unaware.

I raise my blade high over my head for one mighty swing, and with the very last of my strength I cleave the dragon's head from its neck. I sink to my knees, weary in body, but triumphant in spirit. Victory is mine!

That is, until I notice the other much bigger dragon waking up.

You're going to get sick of me saying this sooner or later, but I LOVE the twists you put into your stories like this one, and therefore I love reading whatever you write :) *awed* :D I end up having to read them to whichever poor family member is closest to me, just to share the laughs :)

Nonsense! Always happy to hear when things make people happy. Glad you enjoy my zany twists.

I echo missflyer; you are quite talented at the art of the drabble! Very charming, and the twist is always a fun, as well. As always, a delight!

Hee! Drabbles ARE fun. Especially when you're the one writing them.

Whee, drabbles! It's so odd - normally there's nothing I like more than using 5 words where 1 would serve, but trying to fit a story into these tiny boxes is still a lot of fun.
