Void
By Danny Tauber
Void. Oblivion. Nonexistance. Without being.
Nothing. Absolute Nothing.
Total lack of substance.
...
Boring. Utterly boring. Completely and deathly boring.
...
HA!
...
Death, good one. Too much time non-existing among humans.
...
HA!
...
Time. Another good one.
Nothing.
Still nothing.
Still boredom.
Utter and complete boredom.

Dragon. Roar (hee hee). Small dragon, but i'm still a dragon. Hold the
phone... *I*?!?!? Sentience?!? Yes, sentience. Fun, this is fun.
Wings.
I've got wings. Wings are for flying. Flying is fun. Enough of this frivolous
stuff, J.D. created me and now he wants me to do something for him, i've got
to listen. Crying? J.D., why are you sad? Bait? You created me to be the bait
for a Dauntain? J.D.? Oh... i understand. He'll only attack sentient chimera.
His tastes are too pure for normal chimera. That's one sick puppy. Cheer up,
J.D. Cheer up. Please stop crying. I'll do it, i'll be your bait. Just so long
as we catch that Dauntain. Heave a chimerical brick at him for me, though, will
you? Thanks, J.D.
What's the first step? The city? shiver. oh, the park. Well, that's a bit better. Just fly around? I can do that.
Flying, flying flying, flying. Duck! tree. hee hee. Ooh, look, children. I'm not looking for children though. Hmmm... where can that guy be? Hey look, there must be a changeling down there. If nothing else it's a little kid absolutely beaming with Glamour. He looks like he's having fun. I wonder if he can see me. I'll fly closer and take a look.
