Lucien smirked, "Alright, let me see what I can come up with." He leaned back against the seat, his thumb tracing a small trail along the back of her hand. "Once upon a time there lived a beautiful princess. She was the symbol of her people representing everything that they were. She always wore long flowing blue dresses, the color of the sapphires her people lived on. Her eyes were sparkling blue jewels that glittered with happiness and joy. Her hair formed her perfectly shaped face, also blue in color reminding the people of the long lost color of the sky. She was highly revered in the kingdom, everyone loved her, one man in particular. He was her father's advisor's son. He only saw her in passing but every time he did it made him smile."
Lucien smiled over at her trying to keep his voice low as to not disturb everyone else on the bus. He continued, "One day huge poisonous black dragons attacked the kingdom. The guards tried their hardest but could not stop the dragons from taking the princess. The kingdom was left in disarray. The king and queen were lost without their daughter. Countless fleets were sent out to find her but came back empty handed. The advisor's son knew better. The guards, no matter how well they were trained, could not take on even a single dragon for they were not magically intuned. So he packed his satchel and snuck out in the late hours of the night to search for her. He travelled for days until he reached the moutnains he knew the dragons took rest in. He climbed for another half a day, only her face and the need to save her drove him on. Finally he reached the entrance to the tunnel. He could hear the growling and snarling up ahead but despite his fear he pressed on. As he got close he drew his sword and shield, both encrusted with and empowered by sapphire stones. He entered the cave to find three huge dragons, spittle hanging from their mouth, droplets sizzling on the ground when they fell. He took a deep breath and bellowed at the dragons, 'You will release my princess or you will DIE!' The dragons turned to him and growled and roared." Lucien nuzzled his face into her neck and growled at her attempting to make her laugh.
He pulled out his dagger and waved it around in front of him depicting the next part of his story. "A great battle ensued, claws meeting steel, steel meeting scale and blue light magic tearing holes in the dragons. He was a flurry of movement, weaving and dodging the poisonous nails and teeth and spit. His sword was melting as was his shield. He needed something more. He threw the last of his sword at one dragon stabbing it through the heart. He used the last bit of his shield to slice the second dragon's throat and watched it crash to the ground and bleed out. He turned to face the last dragon just in time to feel the dragon's mighty claw swipe into his stomach, knocking him back into the wall." He sheathed his dagger again, and held his stomach with one arm for a dramatic gesture, leaning back against the seat again.
"He knew he was dead as he held his hand to his gut. When he looked to the side," Lucien turned his head to look at Leila, "He saw the princess trapped inside a bubble of energy. She was crying, pounding her fists on the invisible barrier screaming something at him that he could not hear. It gave him a renewed sense of purpose. He looked back to the malicious dragon stalking toward him, gathering the last of his energy to his hands. Just as the dragon reared back to snap at him, he threw the blue energy at it, disintegrating it completely. The man turned back to her, taking his last breath, smiling as the bubble disappeared and his princess was set free. He closed his eyes."
Lucien closed his eyes but continued the story. "Now the princess ran to him, dropping to her knees beside him crying. Her savior had sacrificed himself for her. She held him close and sobbed, her blue tears falling on him. Then the most peculiar thing happened. Her tears started absorbing into his skin. His flesh turned light blue in color and the wound started closing. The poison was pushed out and the skin healed over, until finally he took a breath. The sound startled her into sitting back and he opened his eyes to look at her." He opened his eyes, "The princess gazed back into his eyes, into his soul, returning the love and warmth from his eyes back to him. They shared a deep passionate kiss before he picked himself up and returned her back to the kingdom. The king was so overjoyed to have his daughter back that he married her to his advisor's son almost immediately. And they lived happily ever after."
Lucien was silent for a few moments, letting the story sink in. He smiled at her, "What did you think? I just made it up."
