You turn back, facing her you ask "Hey Lucy how come you're this rich". The dragoness looks at you with a dumbfounded look on her face "Do you really not know?" She asks. You silently sway your head. She sighs and utters "You humans... your lack of basic knowledge never ceases to amaze me. Allow me to educate you in Zoonovan history." You sit down on the glass table, preparing to get bored to death.
She clears her throat and starts the lesson "For millions of years the Draconic race had control over some of the largest mineral deposits on Zoonova. And as such all dragons are rich and influential. I myself have a net worth of several billions and own 7 major brands, 109 factories and 542 ore mines back at Zoonova. The anthros back at Zoonova show us the respect we deserve, but here on earth they seem to have forgotten the proper manners. The best part is that I don't have to do anything, everything is automated by my orderlies and I get almost all of the cash" She declares proudly.
So all dragons are rich apparently. That would kinda explain her discriminative nature considering everyone in the neighbourhood has average income at best. Wait... does that mean that Sapphira the rampaging, dragoness terrorist is actually a multi-billionaire? Your curiosity gets the best of you and you ask "So Sapphira is also filthy rich?"
Lucy's smug and proud expression quickly went sour as soon as you mentioned the infamous anthro terrorist. "Sapphira... don't even mention that name in my presence! She squandered her entire family fortune so she could for a gang of similarly shallow minded individuals and for what? To destroy your race. She is a disgrace to dragons everywhere!" She states. But then her furious grin disappeared into a saddened one?
"We used to be... friends. No, we were more than just friends. She was the only other dragon in my home town, we played together, went to school together, we were inseparable. We never liked humans, but we didn't downright hate them. But one day she went too far. She left her old life with me behind her. I've been trying to do the same, which is why I came here, to start a new life. She even went as far as to changing her name. Sapphira is not her real name, It's Alice."
You sat there, procesing all of this new information, when you noticed something. Tears were rolling down Lucy's crimson cheeks. You felt kinda bad for her, sure she was an elitist dragon with anger managment issues and she kidnapped you, but she's going through the loss of a loved one and you just reminded her about that loved one. What happens next?
