Story;
Ryuu was never one to get too involved in the business of others specially humans. He often found them simple and barbaric so he avoided them like the plague as to not get caught up in another one of their silly wars. But this all changed when he met her by the rivier..
It was a normal day and Ryuu was walking by a fast moving river, he loved the water and it almost seemed to bed to his will even when it seemed like it didn't. There was a heavy rain last night and the water has higher then normal and the banks were all mud. Ryuu was naturally very graceful and was able to keep on his feet but something caught him for surprised and he nearly fell in.
A small human girl probably about 3 or 4 had fallen into the river, Ryuu knew she would drown if he left her and agents his own mind he waited in the water a bit and used his tail to pull her out. He carried her on his back to a dry spot away from the river and set her down. He wasn't sure if she was alive or not so he leaned in closer only to get a face full of water as the girl coughed it up.
She rolled onto her side and coughed up the rest will he looked down at her unamused and wet by what just happened.
She sat up and looked up at him just realizing he was there and asked if he was the one who had saved her and he nodded in
agreement. She smiles and thanked him for his kindness, Ryuu was about to tell her to think nothing of it and she pulled out a flower and put it behind his ear and bowed. This flower only grows by the rivers and is very sought after by human's for medicine and teas. Ryuu was shocked at the human's gesture as well as a bit embarrassed, she asked him to accept the flower as a offering for saving her life. Ryuu gave a small nod but scolded then girl for getting too close to the river when it was so dangerous
he anticipated for her to get upset and yell back or something as he's seen other humans do, but she only thanked him again and promised to be careful around the river.
She then got up bowed and thanked him again but called him Guardian of the River, before Ryuu could correct her she had left. He was in awe of the name she had given him and he actually liked the sound of it. For the next few years he came to the river every day, where he had met the girl in hopes to see her again as he had become attached to the little human. But instead every day she would have left him a offering of either flowers or food at the spot she had laid her down.
It turned out there was a village near by and once they got word a dragon-like being had saved a girl from the river they even made a small shrine where she had left gifts for Ryuu. He eventually got to see her again face to face but she was not like he remembered she was much older and it seemed with little ones of her own. She smiled kindly at him and greeted him like a friend
would greet another who they had not see in a long time. She bowed and finally asked for the name of the one who had saved her and Ryuu told her his name. she smiled, leaved her offering and left with her children in tow.
It has been years since then and Ryuu still misses the human girl who gave him his name Ryuu,the Guardian of the River..
