Per 
The Emissary
The immortal monster who had claimed countless lives lied immobile in his's prison. A pungent odour permeated the air, enough to make any human recoil and make a hasty retreat to safety, but it did not bother the prisoner, as he was submerged in the liquid that produced it from the moment they managed to capture him long ago. He had other problems to worry about anyways; his body sizzled and bubbled ever so slightly in the parts under the surface of the fluid. "Termination attempt", that's what they called the tortuous proceduces (otherwise hilarious for him if it was not for the pain) to end his life, yet all of them in vain. There he was again, his mind sharp as always and his hatred for the human race boiling even hotter, as his body was broken; shredded beyond recognition, his flesh burned and pierced by their weapons, yet what was still attached to him, everything he could feel had grown stronger, defeated their efforts and struck back at them, and from there, new flesh was now growing to replace the damaged and missing parts with the same strenght as the one that saved his life this time. Slow, deep breaths and the sizzling was all the sounds in the chamber as the dragon recovered from his wounds.
Those lousy apes were about to stop trying after everything they did stopped working on him, but the alarm made them halt and run for shelter, leaving him alone after they closed the gate shut. "173", "096", just numbers, but also names of things he didn't want to encounter again, specially if they were together, but that could give him an opportunity now. The lost limbs finally grew back and he could feel for the wall again. Maybe if he charged against the door… at least he could kill at least one of those disgusting monkeys in white before being captured again… captured, yet not contained.
al these thoughts crossed the creature's mind, but were interrupted by a sudden sound of footsteps inside the chamber. "humans", he thought, but the gate was closed and no sounds were made. The acid level started to lower until his body was free from the strain it put on his body. The flesh recovered more rapidly and soon he was back to his original form with no scars in the scales.
The lights were turned on and light flooded the entire chamber. Before him was a human figure. it wore black and crimson clothes different from the humans in that "foundation" and wore no shoes. He couldn't tell it's gender. Not that it mattered, as soon it would be dead. no restrains were on his body, as the monkeys in white left before his body healed enough to be shackled again, so he would have no problem ripping that new human appart. But there was something strange; the human walked towards him, and that took him by surprise. This surprise lasted for just a moment as his old desire to kill took over. A deep growl emerged from him and he lunged forward stabbing the floor with his claws. He opened his mouth as he was just a little bit from biting down into the figure when it spoke
"█████████"
His body seemed to freeze for a moment before he quickly stopped, leaving deep claw marks on the ground. Both beings remained still, looking at each other. The human's eyes stared right into his without a hint of fear. He noticed those eyes were yellow and the pupil was just like his; a fine vertical line. That being had uttered his name, not once pronounced in all the time in this world.
"who are you?" said he, the surprise not translating well enough through his body to be understood as more than a grumpy question.
"I am █████, an emissary from the king. He sent me for you. The time for his arrival in this world has yet to come, but I am not under the curse of the seventh bride. The preparedness and prowess the humans have shown in capturing you are remarkable, and his grace admits was short-sighted. I am here to offer you a gift. Whether you take it or not shall be your choice, but if you take it, it will give you strenght, help you in your mission. So, what is your choice?"
He made a pause before talking. Finally the opportunity had come
"Give it to me"
"understood" said the human "but for that we will need to move, quickly. The humans will seek to stop this. Those creatures will entertain them for some time, but it will not be forever. follow me, please"
He followed the figure to the gate but was stopped by it raising an open hand. it produced a piece of paper from its clothes and examined it for a moment. it then touched it with a finger. No sound was made as the chamber gate opened to something should not be there. A Big room with a machine. It was made of strange wheels and gears. Two chambers were placed on its sides with heavy doors that were open. In the center there was a mechanism with five human words that meant nothing to him.
"A magnificent machine. It is a shame ignorant humans are the ones who have it, but it will suit our needs. Please wait for me" The human said that as it pulled something again from its clothes. This time it was a single gear. It was made of a golden alloy and filled the human's hand. It dove into the machine and started doing something he could not see. When it was finished, he could see the cog seamlessly attached to the machine meshing with others.
"you do not fit the chamber" said the human "I am giving you these" The human showed him a small glass ball. He knew, it was a gift from the king. "It will give you something to fight what the humans have. You will shrink enough to fit there too. Here" He grabbed it and crushed the ball. Pain overpowered his senses and a stinging sensation spreaded through his body as he shrank. Through the pain he listened to a mechanical sounding voice announcing something he expected but did not want to hear "SCP-682 has breached containment". The name, no, the tag the apes gave him. he roared frustrated as the pain receded. The human had a blank expression as it said "quickly, this will take some time". He quickly entered the chamber. The human pressed a button and the door started to close slowly. "Stay there, I will make sure no one interrupts this." Again, it pulled something from its clothes. A bell. He recoiled inside the chamber. A bad memory of something the scientists did to him, but it was not the same bell. The human rang it and almost instantaneously a human figure crossed the door to the room and presented himself. He wore a black uniform with a white shirt.
"good evening, how can I be of service?" He, inside the chamber was dumbfounded and again, surprised. "hello, Mr. Deeds" Said the human "please kill any human that comes near this place. Be careful for the two creatures around"
"With utmost pleasure" said Mr. Deeds without changing his expression. He then ran outside the room.
The door was almost closed.
"this might hurt quite a bit. Please endure it"
He fixed his gaze on the human's eyes as the last bit of the door closed.
"Thank you" He said, and the door closed shut with a metallic sound. There was no turning back.
Gears started spinning loudly and mechanical sounds clicked through the room and the halls. It had started. Minutes passed and loud roars of a creature in excruciating pain were heard inside the machine over the gears while shots and dying cries were heard in the halls as the butler mercilessly killed the foundation agents who tried to close in to capture the beast. He dispatched one after the other and used their own weapons against them. The human who freed the beast stood near the entrance, ready to defend the machine from damage. Long minutes passed until the mechanical sounds and roars ended abruptly. both doors opened but he came out from the opposite from the one he entered. The human turned their head and smiled.
"And now, show them the true fear of the king, ████████"
The human created another "door" and dissappeared with no trace after crossing it. His body was phisically stronger and much, much tougher, and he somehow knew, the strenght he gained after being hurt would no longer abandon him. He walked to the door and a growl emerged from within him. Everything and everybody it touched started crumbling if he so wished, sure wished for everything to crumble except for the ones he chose to spare. The place he was Trapped at was no longer anything that looked man-made, as now a patch of desert had replaced it, and standing on the remains were two beings aside from him: A small girl and the strange human the emisary called with the bell. He looked injured and had an arm hanging limply. He, however adressed him, the newborn dragon politely and without fear or pain in his speech.
"Oh my, I am terribly sorry to show myself like this, Mr. ████████. Is there anything else I can do to serve you?
He chose to ignore the way the human knew his name. "Protect her" Said he, pointing with his snout towards the little girl.
"I'll gladly do it, sir, but there is just one problem. I might not fulfill your order to the fullest in this state. I would highly recommend you consume me and then call me again so I can protect miss fifty three to the best of my ability." He said this and promptly searched in his uniform and took out the bell.
"alright then". He quickly bit into the butler's body and ate him without pause. The bell fell on the ground and was rung again. The man's voice spoke behind him.
"good, there will be no problem now. How else could I be of service?
He thought for a moment and told him something else concerning the girl. The man nodded "Very well, I am going with her now. I wish you the best of luck, sir.
He turned away while the man walked towards the little girl who recognized the kind creature who let her play with him, even though he was larger and had wings. She tried to walk towards the dragon with a teary expression as he went away but was picked up by Mr. Deeds "There there little miss, you will see him again. I'll take care of you". She stared at him, smiled and placed a tiny hand on his face. He smiled as well.
The great lizzard, now a dragon remembered the last words of the emisary, " show them the true fear of the king" That was now in his head, along with his hatred for humans and their foundation. He would start with it.
