The Dragon's Heart

Smite' Dream Pony

Within a cave inside of Rumbling Rock Ridge not too far from the town of Ponyville one creature was enjoying his nap among his bed of teasures, gold, jewels. He is a large green dragon named Smite, but he is no ordinary dragon. Some time back, he went to a cave so he could meet a new found friend.

That was when he first laid his pink eyes on her...a beautiful white Earth pony with a long flowing tail and mane of pink, bright blue eyes and three pink petals for a cutie mark. He was surprised that the little pony didn't run away from him but instead gave him a four leaf clover, and from that day on the dragon and the pony became great friends and everything seemed perfect...or so we thought.

Smite was trying to get some sleep but for some reason, however, he couldn't sleep. Everytime he closes his eyes and drifts of, he would be dreaming of Tulip...such as right now...

Smite opened his eyes to find himself in the cave, the same one where he hid from the storm just at the outskirts of Ponyville. The sun was setting, and he can hear beautiful singing just outside the cave...singing?

Smite got up quickly to his feet. He recognizes that voice; it belongs to Tulip. He quickly stepped out of the cave to look outside, and there stood his little Pony, singing with the bluebirds flying around her. For some strange reason Smite found out that he has shrunk because he finds himself only a foot taller than the Pony.

But he didn't seem to care. He was enchanted by this lovely creature. Her singing is the most beautiful singing he has ever heard. Her eyes are like aquamarines and her mane and and tail are like cherry blossoms. And her fur makes her look like a star that Luna herself has has brought down to earth for him.

Smite also recalled her gentle kindness. How she shared half her lunch with him when he lost his. No other female could ever be sweeter than her. He then stepped out of the cave and towards her. The white pony turned to him and smiled.

"Smite..." she said softly and sweetly. The green dragon then stepped closer to her, his heart faster than before.

"What are you doing here?" he asked her with gentle confusion. Tulip simply placed her cheek against his throat, his heart beating faster than before.

"I couldn't stay away," she answered with a small smile. "I've missed you so much..." he then wrapped his arms around her slowly, genly, and lovingly. She has been on his mind lately that Smite has missed her as well.

"I've missed you too," he whispered to her. She then looked up at him and he at her...aquamarine eyes and pink eyes...Smite could just swim deeply in those pools. Cupping her cheek with his clawed hand, he pressed his lips into hers to kiss her.

"I love you...."

Smite woke up with gasp, finding himself in his own private cave, in Rumbling Rock Ridge. He then let out a sad sigh. The green dragon had been having dreams every time he falls asleep, and each and every one of them features the beautiful Tulip. Why is he always dreaming of her?

"Oh, who am I kidding!" he cried, shaking his head in remorse. "I already know the answer to that question! I've fallen in love with her!" he then rested his head down onto the pile of treasures and cried silently. True he has fallen in love Tulip because of her kind heart that has outshined her beauty, but he can never her.

"What I wouldn't give..." he whimpered softly, "to have her with me...so that I may woo her...into becoming my mate..." He then cried some more, knowing that his will never come true. He has no idea how wrong he is.
