The flesh of a primal predator

The meme of survival

I woke up from my dreamless slumber and looked around me, I had a flashback of me slaughtering the griffons and so I pondered on how necessary was the killing and defiling of their corpses.

The deed is done and I can't go back to right the wrongs but I just have to face the consequences of my choice, I'm not scared of pain as I am physically incapable of feeling it. I felt the ground rumble as i looked up to see a very pissed off dragon, I got up and readied my claws as the dragon begun to charge.
I ducked under his legs while he missed me, I ran up to him and sliced his legs open, this enraged him and caused him stomp me but his foot got impaled on my sharp claws, I spread the wound on his foot to cause more pain and let it bleed more freely, the Dragon roared in pain as it tried to keep the wound pressured while that distraction gave me time to run up to it and climb its body using my claws as ice picks or in this case, flesh picks.
I grabbed the beasts arm and begun to hack away at it to expose the flesh and bones, I then extended my middle claw blade and sliced the arm cleanly off, Blood squirted out like the backyard hose as the dragon roared in agony while trying to stay conscious from the shock, I then jumped from the stump of the remaining arm and tore a vertical line down the dragons abdomen deep enough to show the guts slowly sliding out, I dashed at the dragons leg and grabbed it and squeezed it to the point it got crushed so fast that it looked a tomato just got shot by a sniper.
I then decided to finish the job, I jumped on to the wall in the cave and jumped over to the dragon that was in shock, I then ran up to his head and then the killing blow was preformed, I stabbed a claw under his eye and ripped his eye out, I then crawled into the eye hole and lobotomised his brain.
I jumped out of his head landed on the ground covered in blood and grey matter, I begun wondering about how I got cruelty to kill the dragon that brutally, and then I made a horrifying conclusion, I have become my own monster in body and mind.
I then decided to consume the dragon considering he probably isn't sentient.
I shoved a bit of brain matter in my freakish mouth and then everything went white.


POV of dragon

I looked at my old nest as I left, I had to find another nest as the old one was dominated by a stronger drake, one of these days i will get my vengeance for that bastard stealing my home and my pride but vengeance must wait or i will be dead before I even see him beg for mercy, I found a cave in the everfree forest, it was a good place to live in the everfree forest until further notice, the ponies were too scared to enter the forest and that made an ideal home as a dragon would be bad news for any other predator in the forest.
I decided to feed on some animals before heading into the cave.


Looking at my claws horrified, I drew in shallow breaths as I realised I just killed a drake that couldn't even get revenge, I decided that one day I will kill the dragon that kicked the unfortunate one out of his home.
I walked out of the cave and took a walk down the forest and saw a little cottage, I immediately walked away considering that going inside the place is downright stupid.

"Hello?" a feminine voice was heard from outside the cottage.

I immediately turned around to see a little pony look at me with wide eyes, she looked like she was about to run off in terror while screaming like most kids would, but she didn't, she stood there and looked at me while never taking her eyes off.

Probably knows that it isn't a smart idea to run away from a creature much faster than you.

"Hello there, I'm not going to hurt you" I decided to respond back as it was rude to ignore.

She just stood there in shock as she wondered how a freakish beast like me just talked, that and I have an extremely well hidden mouth that I don't need to use to talk with.

"w-what are you" she definitely was a lot more smarter than I give her credit for.

This was a good question as I don't know what to call myself or my species anymore, I decided to try pick a name that suited my personality and species, however my brain experienced a total blank and so I stood there like a complete idiot.

"I don't know my name" was all I could say.

She looked at curiously and asked one question that held a sad answer.

"Didn't your mom name you" was her only question.

"My species doesn't require to be birthed" what I said practically meant I had no mother which was half true now.

She gave me a look of empathy and decided to have a chat with me, I asked her why she was talking to a beast like me but she said her mother is completely against racism and so is she.

After a while I decided to leave but she tried to protest, I told her that her mother might be very tolerant of other races but she probably won't accept me as I practically am a death machine.

I looked at my claws as I walked away from the cottage, a certain loneliness filled me as I walked in to the untamed forest that she calls everfree forest, I sat down at a lake and looked at my reflection, all I saw was a face that matched my fantasy beast, it had a dull yellow glow to it and looked very rough but actually felt quite smooth.

I sat down there for hours wanting to go to my life but all I could remember is that song and how made me feel even more lonely, I decided to get over myself and go to sleep even though I don't require it, it helped time passed anyway and that I felt that familiar darkness over come me as I drifted to a new place.
