Ice-Ice-Dragon (Tf) Draft

“S-So cold…” Sapphire stuttered as she stumbled through the cavern system that was completely made up of ice on all sides. The air was somewhat bearable, but the walls and ceiling were bone chilling.

“I-I need to continue walking. If I stop, they will never find me.” There was no way she would stop now. She might be lost in here, but there has to be an exit somewhere around these parts.

“Who, if I may ask, will never find you?” A voice, ringing out from what sounded like every direction, asked her. Sapphire was shocked at first, but really didn’t have the energy anymore to be frightened anymore. In fact, she was even a little bit relieved that someone was with her in this frosty cavern.

“I was on a ship with my friends. We came t-to see the Leviathan's Trench. You know, this small island with all the cool legends surrounding it.” Sapphire answered, realizing that she really didn't care about what she was talking about. She just didn't want to be alone anymore.

“Oh, I know the Leviathan’s Trench well. In fact, we are currently in an underwater ice cavern of that island.” The voice answered. This simple answer made light return to the eyes of the desperate girl.

“If you know where we are, does that mean you know how to get out?!?” Sapphire shouted, more out of surprise than anything else. But still, this was a question that she needed to be answered.

“It’s not really a question of ‘If I know how to get out’, more off ‘if I know a way for you to get out’…” The voice answered, making her look in a mixture of annoyance and confusion.

“What? Are you a ghost that doesn't need to respect walls or something?” Sapphire let out, her snarky sarcasm leaking out the moment she relaxed a bit. She had a bit of a bad tongue sometimes, but that didn’t really matter at that moment.

“A ghost? Fufufufu, you wish I was one,” the voice said back. It tried to sound malovenant, but the speaker started to crack and giggle a little at their own performance that it simply fell apart. “I’m afraid you can not leave this place in this form.”

“I can’t leave!?” Sapphire shrieked. “I demand to see- well, to see you! Show yourself already!” The young woman started to pout as her frustration rose. This voice, whatever or whoever it was, was clearly just playing with her. In her quick fit of anger, she seemingly forgot about her predicament and it caused her body to warm up.

The voice couldn’t help but giggle before speaking up again.
“I can not reveal myself to you- because that wouldn’t be a lot of fun~ But, if you do as I say, I’ll give you the opportunity to leave.”
“And what if I don’t want to?”
“Oh, I’ll do nothing and leave. But then I’m afraid that wandering around in an icy cave is all you’ll be doing for the foreseeable future~”

“Fine, I get it. You came all the way down here, so I guess it makes sense that you won’t help me for free…”

Ultimately, Sapphire was kinda bummed out by this turn of events, but at the same time she was happy that at least she wasn’t alone anymore. So she shook her head, looked at the ceiling, where the voice was most likely coming from and said “Okay, what do you want me to do? Don’t expect me to be able to do much here under this big ol hunk of ice! Besides, it’s freezing in here!”

“Oh? Do you really think it’s that cold in here…?” The voice spoke tauntingly, which Sapphire didn’t like. Like at all.

“Then how about we warm things up!” For a hot second, Sapphire was relieved to hear this- until she felt the cold air touch her bare belly.
“M-my clothes!?”
“Don’t worry, I left your underwear on~ After all, it’s a lot hotter when you leave things up to the imagination~”
“That’s- you said you were going to make me hot!”

“Why didn’t you say so?” Suddenly, Sapphire started to feel something burning in her chest. Though it didn’t necessarily make her feel “warm”.
“What are- aaah… aaahhhh….. AAAAHHHH!” Suddenly, Sapphire felt some much heavier baggage on her chest. “My- boobs!? What the fu-”
“Well you wanted to be hot, so I made you hot! Now you got a chest that any woman would kill for!” The voice giggled.

“You are literally the worst. Why would I need bigger boobs or less clothes in the middle of an ice cave?!?” Sapphire complained, making the voice around her giggle. This caused Sapphire to let off a soft growl.

“Okay, okay. I get you. But what is it that you really need then?” The voice asked, making Sapphire even angrier than before.

“Oh, I don’t know. Maybe a way to get out of here and not freeze to death could be quite advantageous. But a stupid disembodied cowardly voice wouldn’t understand the struggles of a human in an icy prison.” She let out in her frustration and continued down the path in a faster strudd than before, hoping to shake off the voice that was following her.

“You don’t want to freeze to death? That's easy. And it would also solve the whole ‘struggles of being a human part’ as well~” The voice sang in amusement, making shudder back for a moment.

A weird feeling quickly spread through her body, making her slow down with her march for a moment. She was feeling increasingly hot again, but this time, for real. It was like her entire body was suddenly covered in a super hot blanket, that she couldn’t shake off.

“What did you do this time?” Sapphire asked, but as she felt around her body she could feel some weird leathery texture appear in small batches all around her body. She looked down and let out a cute yelp as she saw actual reptilian esque scales grow all over her lower body, especially towards her hips. And she also got the feeling that a few had started growing on her cheeks as well.

“You’re turning me into a lizard!? Why not just kill me already!” She screamed. The choked up a bit, as if not expecting the reaction it got.
“A lizard? Pfff, silly girl, dragons aren’t cold-blooded!” The voice said. Sapphire was ready to scream, but she felt some intense pleasure just above her ass. Something was pushing out from her behind, and as it did, she started to feel rather… indifferent to it. Sapphire continued to watch, not sure what to even say or do at this point. What could she do against a force she couldn’t even see?

So, she simply watched her own reflection, watching her new tail grow. Watching the horns form on her head as more and more scales emerged from her body. She no longer felt cold at least, in fact it started to feel weirdly pleasant. Sapphire looked at her arms, feeling a new sensation she couldn’t describe.

She punched the wall in front of her. At first, nothing seemed to happen. But then a cracked form, followed by many, causing the wall to falter and collapse revealing a new path. Sapphire looked back at her hands, and then back towards the new passageway.

“There you go. Now you can make your own exits as well. And you don’t have to freeze anymore either. As an Ice dragon girl, you have nothing to fear from being in this ancient cave.” The voice spoke smuggly, making Sapphire hang her head in defeat.

“I got it. You won. Could you at least point me into the direction I need to punch in order to get out?” Sapphire asked, raising her head again.

“Sure, but only if you change your name to Sapphira. I think that is a much more fitting name for a dragoness~”

“You little…!”

“Have any of you had any luck finding Sapphire yet?” A young man asked as a small group of people gathered on the island. Some of them shook their heads, others just looked away, but all of them were clearly not happy with the situation.

“I have talked with the local authorities about that and they told me that if someone gets missing on the boat trip here, they just won't search for them.” A girl remarked. “They all believe in some kind of legend that those who go missing here get reborn as dragons of legends or something. It sounds stupid, I kn…”

KABOOM!!!

“Waahhh”

“What the…?”

“Phew~ Finally out!”

The entire group of six friends looked in shock as the side of the giant iceberg next to them just exploded from the inside and opened up a hole where a sole girl stood in a punching position. Though after a bit of shock and confusion, they looked a bit closer because she looked familiar…

“Wait, Sapphire? Is that you? Why do you have…”

“It’s a long story… And… Tsk..” She answered, clicked her tongue and bit herself on the lips. “And I… got by Sapphira now. Because it sounds more like the name of a dragoness…”

“Wait, you are a real dragon?” The entire crew pretty much answered simultaneously, making Sapphira blush.

“Yes, I am. But could we move the interrogation to another time? I would like to change clothes first if that is okay. My old clothes…didn’t survive.” She asked, making her entire crew stare briefly at her newly improved bust.

As the crew made its way to the hotel where they had planned to stay, Sapphira couldn’t help but think back to that annoying voice in the cave. Even though it did troll her a lot, it did also deliver on its promise to get her out of the cave.

And there even was a good thing that came from being a dragon. She would never have to fear being cold for the rest of her life. And also the boob thing, as she already enjoyed all the starres she has been getting ever since she broke out of the ice. Though this was something, she would never admit to anyone…
