Damon stared.
The First stared harder.
"Where is my dragon baby?" Damon opened and closed his mouth.
"…this is the legendary calamity?" The First muttered. "That is not what it is supposed to look like. This must be its infant disguise. Its larval form. Its compressed manifestation… it… it should not… why is it a cat?!"
"I am asking you the same thing. You told me it would be a dragon. Why is it a cat?"
The kitten tilted its head.
"Meow?"
"Looks are deceiving! Kill it! Kill it now!" The First snapped out of it and did not hesitate anymore. He went straight for the kill, his arm turning into a spear of shadow aimed at the kitten's forehead.
The kitten blinked once.
Just once.
A pulse of abyssal pressure exploded out from its tiny body. The First's spear twisted off course mid-strike.
His entire arm bent sideways at an impossible angle.
CRACK.
