1 Flip-Flopped Fairy Tale

A/N: This just a fun little fairy tale I wrote. Thought someone is bound to like it.

Flora was very friendly, but everyone who had met her thought she was very scary. She didn't understand why, though. She always tried to be as kind and friendly as she could when met a new person. Although they never stayed very long. They always ran away screaming, but Flora never knew why. She just wished that someone would stay for once.

It got very lonely being Flora. Since everyone left almost immediately after they saw her, Flora had no one to talk to. She just wanted at least one person to talk to. She wouldn't be so lonely if one person didn't run away screaming. Flora wished that she had a friend.

It had been a few months since a person came around where Flora lived. That day, though, Flora was about to get a new visitor. The visitor was in a metal suit that Flora found out was called armor. Most of her visitors wore armor, but there was something different about this one. The visitor in the armor wasn't alone like the visitors that had come before them. They had a girl with them. The girl, in Flora's opinion, looked like she really didn't want to there or with the person in armor. The girl looked scared, which made Flora want to help her. Flora didn't like the vibe she was getting from the visitor in the armor. The person in the armor seemed mean and unpleasant. That just made Flora want to help the girl even more, but first, she had to come up with a plan to save the girl.

While Flora was in another place in her abode coming up with a plan to save the beautiful girl, the person in the armor had stopped in the doorway of Flora's home. They seemed to be listening for something. They probably wanted to make sure no one else was there. The girl's hands were tied behind her, but she still tried to get free. Her bonds were probably tied really tight because no matter how much she tried, she couldn't get free.

After a few minutes, the person in the armor entered Flora's abode. They dragged the scared girl into one of the many rooms near the entrance. They double-checked to make sure no one else was in the room with them. Once the armored visitor was sure that no else was in that room, they took off their helmet.

Now Flora was in the room almost directly across from the room the girl and the visitor. The door of the room she was in was only opened a little bit. Flora was also very quiet, so the armored visitor could have no idea that she was in there. Flora could see everything that was going on in the other room that the girl was in. She saw when the armored person took off their helmet, and when they did, Flora gasped in her mind. She didn't want to give up her hiding place. The armored visitor was a man. He also would have looked pretty handsome, but he had evil written all over his face.

When Flora saw his face, though, all she saw was hate. She knew the man. When Flora was little, this man was one of the knights who took care of her. He was very mean to her. He beat her with a whip. Every time she saw him she was so afraid because she knew he was going to probably whip her. Flora was so scared of being whipped one day, that she got the courage to escape. She hadn't seen the man since then until now.

She remembered his name too. His name is Sir Lucifer Cane. In Flora's opinion, his name suited his evil personality well.

Now that Flora knew who the man in the armor was, she had to save the girl. Florarevised her plan a bit to fit the man she was now up against. After a few minutes of revising her plan, it was perfect. Hoping the girl wouldn't scream when she saw Flora, she would try and sneak up behind Cane. that is when she would attack.

After a few minutes of going over the plan in her head, Flora started the first step of her plan. She made sure to watch her every step, so she wouldn't step on something that would give away her position. It seemed to take forever for Flora to cross the long hallway to the door where they were. Soon she was right behind Cane.Luckily for Flora, the girl had now been blindfolded, so she couldn't see Flora. Flora didn't have to worry about her screaming. She was a bit relieved, but not completely. She still had to rescue the girl from the evil Sir Lucifer Cane.

Flora got ready to jump , but something stopped her. In Sir Cane's hand was a whip. Flora could have recognized that whip from anywhere. It was one of a kind, specially made for Sir Cane. It was a long and black. It had a cushioned grip with a few designs on it that must have meant something to Cane, but Flora didn't know what. That whip was the same one that Cane had used to whip Flora with when she was little.

Flora was frozen in her spot with fear. Her mind was trying to tell her that she had to jump, but she was still frozen with fear. Flora was jolted from her state when she heard the girl scream. Flora was afraid it was because she had been seen, but she recognized that scream. It was the same scream she made when Sir Cane hit her all those years ago. Sir Cane had hit the girl. All the fear Flora had had about the whip was now replaced with anger. Flora was not just going to stand there while Sir Cane does the same thing he did to Flora , to this little girl. That's when she jumped.

Her angle, aim, trajectory, and everything about the jump was perfect. Flora landed directly on top of Sir Cane. Because she was so big, she was crushing. Although Flora was very heavy, Sir Cane still somehow escaped. When he was out, he looked at Flora with a bit of fear showing in his eyes. He also looked a bit surprised.

A few seconds later, Sir Cane seemed to get over his initial shock, but you could still see some fear in his eyes. Flora was looking directly at him. He didn't seem to recognize Flora, which Flora was happy about.

After a few mote seconds of staring at Flora Sir Cane spoke to Flora, "I thought you were extinct."

"Well, obviously you were mistaken Lucifer," Flora responded with a bit of venom in her voice.

"Ho-How did you know my name?" Cane questioned. His voice was shaking a bit. "Have we met before?"

Flora didn't get a chance to answer him before Cane recognized her.

"Flora? Is-is that you?" The knight asked her. His voice was still a bit shaky.

"Wow. That took you forever," Flora commented.

Lucifer didn't respond, he just raised his whip and got ready to swing. He never got the chance to swing the whip, though. Flora had incinerated the torturous whip. One second the whip was in Lucifer's hand, the next it was gone. Flora hated that whip so much that she had breathed fire for the first time in her dragon life. She was glad that she could breathe fire.

Cane was now unarmed. He was shaking with fear. Flora could see why too. Flora could kill him right now, but that isn't Flora. She wasn't going to kill him.

"I'm not going to kill you, but if you try to escape, I won't hesitate to hurt you," Flora threatened.

Cane nodded his head really fast in understanding.

After Flora knew that Cane wasn't going to try and escape, she turned her attention to the girl, who was still blindfolded and tied up. Flora realized that she couldn't untie her bonds and blindfold with her claws, so she made Cane do it. As soon as her blindfold was taken off, she saw Cane. She was confused, yet angry too.

"Why are you releasing me?" The girl asked the knight. "I thought you were kidnapping me."

"I was, but I was stopped," Cane explained.

"By whom?" The girl asked curiously.

"Flora over there," he said as he gestured over to where Flora was.

The girl looked over to where Cane had pointed out Flora. She looked like she was about to scream. Flora was pretty sure she was going to run away any minute now. Instead, the girl surprised Flora. She ran up and hugged Flora.

"Flora!" She exclaimed. "Where have you been all these years? I've missed you."

After releasing Flora from the hug, to probably see why Flora hadn't responded. She must have seen the confusion on Flora's face because she introduced herself.

"Flora, it's me, Princess Penelope. Do you remember me?"

That is when it all came back to Flora. Her memories came rushing back to her. They had disappeared after all those beatings from Cane. Flora remembered all the fun times she had with Penelope when they were little.

"Flora?" Penelope questioned. "Do you remember me?" Penelope looked to be on the verge of tears.

"Penelope!" Flora exclaimed as she tackled the princess.

"Flora!" Penelope exclaimed.

They were both very happy to be reunited with each other but they would have to catch up later. They had to take Sir Cane back to the castle, so he could be locked up forever.

Penelope tied up Cane with the same thing he had tied herself up with. She even put the blindfold on him. They forgot his helmet, though. Penelope loaded Cane onto Flora's back. Then she got on Flora's back herself. Once Penelope was safely secure on Flora's back, Flora took off back to the castle.

"I'm finally going to have a friend," Flora thought. "My wish came true."

THE END!!!!!!!!!!!!
