Aww come on now....your so cute....be such a waste... The man's words draw out, lust dripping off every word. Alec was pinned against a alleyway wall, fear obviously gripped the boys face and eyes. Their were two other men blocking each side of him, smirks on their face at the sight of such terror on a delicate face.

A noise made the men turned their attention away for just a moment, allowing Alec to squeeze by them and took off running. It started to rain heavily now, the cold air making breathing much more difficult. He didn't know where he was even running to, but the sound of fast approaching foot steps made him blindly just run wherever. His heart beat was racing, pounding loudly in his ears as tears ran down his face.

Finally, he just squeezed through a small opening in the normally closed gates that lead to the graveyard. He fell to the ground, out of breath and he was freezing. His shirt had been torn, only pieces of it hung from his lithe form. He curled up, eyes close and for some reason felt alot safer right now. The men who were chasing him though didn't want to give this up and they pushed the gate more open with ease.

Alec's eyes shot open, he tried to get up but he felt a foot on his back. He winched and whimpered when he was pushed stomach first to the ground. A pair of hands reached downward now, yanking at the boys somewhat loose pants. S-stop it! He cried and kicked at his attackers face. His pants were now hung very low on his slender hips, making running abit more difficult. He tried to hide somewhere, but they just found him and made him lay on his stomach again. This time, they held his arms and legs down while the other started to try undressing him. He just started to cry and beg for them to not do this, gripping the ground hard enough to feel nails breaking. The one who was going to do first slammed his head into the ground, hard to and prayed that he would just pass out so he wouldn't have to experience this.

Casey had just now chosen to surface from his home within the crypt. Golden eyes looked rather bored as they atared up at the sky. It could tell it was about to rain but it didn't care much as it would never be touched by the rain. It kept its steps light before starting to pick up on the emotion of fear reeking from a human that had just made its way into the graveyard. At first the dragon held a smirk on its face at the emotion but its eyes and hare turned white realizing it knew this human. It picked up on the smell and sound of 3 more humans, feeling their lustful intent for miles around. White turned red as Casey ran out into the graveyard. It knew exactly where the group now was, the red in its hair and eyes getting brighter before darkening with its rage. As it came to a halt, it saw something that just made its hair and eyes turn tar black from its hateful emotions. A loud roar came from the dragon before it let its human glamour fall away, a massive white dragon now in its wake. It's mane was black as was its eyes as it watched the humans trying to strip Alec freeze in terror. A massive claw swiped at two of them, knocking them back along with clawing them across their faces. The one that had been pinning the boy to the ground was picked up with Casey's tail, being brought face to face with the angry dragon as its tail was getting tighter and tighter around the attacker.

"YOU IGNORANT FOOLS! SUFFER IN HELL FOR TOUCHING MY HUMAN!!!"

The dragon's voice was actually two voices now, one a deep male voice and the other a high female one. It roared again, the human attackers now stricken with terror. It knew it wasn't allowed to eat their souls unless they were close to death, but chose to make the one ensnared in its tail an example as it drained the soul from it, the body still alive but lacking much ability to feel. It glared down at the other two left with narrow black eyes, blue fire starting to leave its mouth.

"LEAVE UNLESS YOU WANT TO END UP AS YOUR FRIEND!NOW!!!"

The two humans made a run for it then, leaving their empty shell of a friend behind as blue flames licked at their heels until they were out of the cemetery. The dragon was still very much angered that this happens but moved over to Alec now, eyes and mane going a grey-yellow mixture with concern and sadness that this had happened to the human.

He had never been so scared before in his life, he barely registered where he was at the moment....only trying to find a spot inside his mind that would take him to a better place than this. Tears ran down his face, his entire body ached from behind held down and from the bruises that were inflicted upon his face and neck.

The unspeakable act was about to be committed when a sound caught the humans off guard. He felt their hands leave him, but only fell to the side and curled up, covering his face with his frail arms at the sounds. He was so frightened, he didn't quite understand what was going on.

He heard faint foot steps running away from him and felt something hover over him. Please...don't hurt me..... He begged softly, his entire body shaking. He was practically naked, his cloths were torn from his body and the cold rain hit him like ice being thrown on him. Soft, choked sobs left him and he never looked so broken before.

casey couldn't help but feel its heart sink at seeing Alec so afraid and frail. In a sense it was glad the human had ran into the graveyard but was still very much upset that someone would try and hurt the human as those men had nearly done. It reverted into its human form, creating a large red blanket from glamour to cover Alec up with.

"It's just me Alec, those humans aren't here to hurt you anymore..."

It carefully moved to pick up Alec, keeping the human wrapped warmly in the blanket as it made its way back to its home. It made sure the locks were secure for each of the doors before just bringing Alec to its room. Casey was trying not to show it was upset, but its grey-yellow hair and eyes were a dead giveaway of its feelings. It didn't seem to want to let go of Alec as it just kept the human cradled in its arms for a moment, doing its best to soothe the human, it was almost wanting to ask if it could eat Alec's fear and pain just to make the other stop suffering at the moment.

He honestly wasn't sure who it was that had stopped those men, but once he heard the voice he felt much safer. He dared to look up, feeling ashamed now that Casey saw him like this....saw him in that position even. He felt something wrap around him and couldn't help but to gripped Casey's shirt, still shaking some but not as bad as it once was.

He had his eyes close, trying to contain any tears that threatened to spill from his eyes. Once they were inside the dragon's home, he felt warmth and safety wash over him. He looked up to see Casey now, his cheek and the side of his head were badly bruised and there was some blood trickling down his chin.

Although he was no longer shaking, he was still scared but as as much as he used to be. I'm sorry..... He whispered softly and buried his face in the others chest to hide his face.

Casey didn't mind that Alec had its shirt in a vice grip as it kept holding the fragile human. It seemed to cradle the other so as to stop the violent shaking, the dragon starting to relax at seeing and feeling the shaking lessen. The dragon's heart couldn't help to outright cry at seeing the human's battered face, making it wish it could have gotten to Alec sooner. It hushed Alec softly at the other saying sorry. It lifted one hand to run through Alec's hair, still trying to calm the other to the best of its abilities.

"It's not your fault...If I could leave this cemetery I'd have made sure this didn't happen..."

It still held Alec close, rising from sitting on the bed and towards the bath. It was thinking it would help if Alec had a warm bath, the shaking still very much there. The dragon also want the stench of its human's attacker washed away and out of mind for the remainder of the night. Starting the water with the use of glamour, the large tub seemed to just be waiting on the dragon to actually put Alec down as it still held the fragile human carefully in its arms.

He merely curled up close to Casey, feeling his hair being touched and it made him smile some. He enjoyed Casey's touches and it was making him feel alot better. He looked up at the dragon now, his eyes widen some at what Casey said. It's not your fault....its because of how I look....is why I am targeted so much more than most people...its been this way since I was fifteen...but nothing like this has ever happened......I was so scared........I thought I was going to be....raped... He whispered, the last word almost sounding like a whimper.

He felt Casey carrying him to the bathroom, watching the tub now fill up and stared at the warm water before looking back at Casey.

Casey could tell Alec was starting to feel better now, the dragon's touch seeming to help soothe the other somehow. It had heard every word spoken by the other, even what had sounded more like a whimper than anything else.its hair And eyes flared a red color for a moment, having wished it did drain the very souls out of the other two humans that had attacked Alec. Casey had terrible memories of going through such trauma, but unlike most it had decades and decades to get rid of them memory. It moved to set the other in the bath now, the blanket that was draped around Alec vanishing with the use of Casey's magic.

"Let us hope it doesn't happen again, no one needs to go through such pain."

It's tone was mildly somber as it moved to wait in the doorway for Alec to hopefully relax further in the bath. It could wait limitlessly so the human was allowed its time. Casey was still very much focused on just having the other feel better.

He felt the blanket leave him and looked up at the other, not wanting to be away from Casey at the moment when he felt himself being lowered into the bath. He was half tempted to ask the dragon to join him, but kept his mouth shut as he watched the other simply walk to the door way. He sigh softly, leaning back against the tub and closed his eyes.

He started to scrub his body down, wanting to get rid of any trace that those men left. He had faint bruises that looked like hand prints on his arms, legs and thighs were they held him down and winched once he ran his hand over the yellowish-blue bruises. He looked back to Casey, eyes sadden but he continued to wash himself down.

Casey was trying to keep its anger in as it kept a close eye on Alec. It could see the bruises clear as day against the human's pale skin, the ones shaped like handprints getting to it more than anything else. The dragon couldn't help to avert its eyes elsewhere when Alec looked over with sad eyes, it starting to find that emotion very much unfitting for the frail human. it shifted uncomfortably where it stood before choosing to make itself a bit more useful. That and to distract it from watching this pitiful sight laid out before him.

"I'm going to get you something to wear. Don't leave that bath until i get back."

Casey then made its way out of the bathroom, through the bedroom, and to its massive walk in closet. It chose to find something more on the comfy side of clothes for the human, knowing the bruises must feel very much sore. It ended up grabbing a baggy grey shirt and black sweat pants for the other before going back to the bathroom. It set the clothes on the counter before taking its place back at the door.

He just nodded at what Casey said and bite his lower lip, watching the other walk away now and wondered now if Casey was maybe mad at him or something. He tried not to think on that at the moment and continued to scrub his legs down till he washed the soap off him. He had already washed his hair and saw the other come back with some cloths.

He stayed in the water for a few more minutes, finding the hot water relaxing and once he was done soaking, he got up alittle wobbly and grabbed a towel. He started to dry himself off, putting on the cloths that Casey got for him and tried not to look so sad now. He gave the dragon a smile and hugged him, laying his head on the others chest. Thank you. He said.

Casey couldnt help to turn away as Alec got dressed. It wanted to give the boy some form of dignty after how the dragon had found him. If there was one thing the dragon understood it was shame and right now it didn't want the human to feel any of that. It was bad enough Alec had been stripped down and bruised as he was, the dragon didn't need to just make those feelings stronger in the other. It had still been looking away when Alec chose to walk up and hug it, its body going stiff for a moment as it was still adjusting to such affection. A sad smile crossed Casey's lips at hearing the thank you, its hair and eyes a light grey as it moved to wrap its arms around the small human.

"No need for thanks. Let's get you some rest."

It led Alec to the bed, choosing to just sit there on the edge instead of laying down with the other. It was still fully dressed after all, not having taken a moment to even take care of itself. It had turned Alec into a top priority and it didn't even know how.

It felt nice to lay down and couldn't help but to snuggle up with the blanket, turning on his side to look up at Casey with a smile. He sigh softly and looked at the other now with a small smile. Could you lay with me....please....I don't want to be alone. He said softly.

He reached out and took Casey's hand in his and gave it a squeeze. He wanted to be with the other right now and bite his lower lip.

Casey could have just stayed sitting there for the time being but the tug on its arm and the fact that Alec was looking at it with that smile, the dragon knew it couldnt be helped. Taking a moment to get rid of its shoes and pants at least, it moved to crawl under the blankets with Alec. Its hair and eyes had remained unchanged from their light grey coloring at this point as it just laid there letting alec make himself comfortable.

"I make no plans of leaving Alec. Now rest...I know the pain you must feel."

at saying such words the grey in its hair and eyes went a shade darker, eyes even looking a little downcast as it placed a smile on its lips. It didn't want to worry the boy but knew that with its emotions on display so easily hiding them was near impossible.

He smiled some once Casey started to move, watching the other get his shoes and pants off to crawl into bed next to him. He immediately moved to lay against the others side, head on the dragons chest and laid his arm across his upper stomach.

He quickly fell asleep, making soft sounds and started to move some in his sleep. He started to whimper now, having a bad dream that those three men had....actually raped him. He woke up, sweat rolling down his cheek and he pulled his knees close to his chest and started to cry.
