There lived a young girl named Shaquia. To others she was considered an evil youngster because of what happened that one day down by the river. You see, what happened was...

one day when she was by the river having a picknick. all of the sudden she heard a noise and out of the corner of her eyes she saw a guy running towards her , she feared the worst

but then she focused her eyes and realized it was her brother. He was coming to tell her the good news.

He wasn't pregnant after all. The test must have been faulty. She slapped him, twice, hard and screamed, "Snap out of it!" When he first decided to be a woman it was cute but

she had sold as many children's books on the subject as possible and was frankly tired of it. She wanted grand children and had enough money to afford an expensive deprogramming

device for the cyborg wife her son had married. Once Maeve was out of the picture, she would fly to New Caledonia and search out the woman he had always loved before the accident,

but never had the nerve to pop the question to. Only now, with her son disfigured worse than a pizza pie under a Goodyear, the odds were stacked against her. Still, she had to try

not to lose hope. At this moment all she could manage was to hope someone would by her a drink. Conversation may be nice but not until after a couple drinks. Then she

dropped her guard. So the dragon saw this as an opportunity to break the ice. "Need a smoke?", he chimed in, nervously.

Christ, dragons just cannot tell a joke. It's no wonder. Yet she still loved him. She'd done worse, a lot worse in her life. "Let's go," she said, nodding towards the door.
