Here's a little something I've written.... You could call it a small narrative..

I stood there, with the cool breeze caressing my face. A strong wind was what I wanted instead of a mere breeze to match the rush of adrenaline inside of me but you don't always get what you want, do you?
I don't have many memories as a child. All my memories mostly comprised of my bed and the small table beside it and a little window which allowed very little light into the dark room. All my life I've known only fear, terror and anger. Happiness was never a part of me or maybe I had forgotten what it felt like to be happy. I was kidnapped as a child, I guess, and was locked up in the dark room of this very high tower. A few men tried to rescue me, or so the Dragon says. I talk to the Dragon. Yeah, we communicate but I never really liked It.
I've always had this urge to inflict damage to the Dragon and climb down the tower and run about wild and free. I have this faint memory in which my father told me that a man, a handsome prince to be more precise would come, slay the Dragon, rescue me and take me back home to my kingdom. We'd eventually get married and live Happily Ever After.
I've waited for quite long. No sign of any prince. The Dragon says a few have come but they have stopped, as It is too fierce for them. "They're all chickens", It says and laughs It's wicked laugh. I waited and waited patiently in my room hoping for someone to come. No one did.
Today, all my urges and desires took over me. I felt really determined and had made up my mind. I sat in my room, thinking, for hours together. Something had to be done. I was tired of being the damsel in distress and wanted to help myself! My patience had clearly ended and there was no use waiting for someone who would never come. People had forgotten all about me. It was about time I reminded them.
I slayed the Dragon in It's sleep with a sword I'd found in It's room. I went directly for It's belly and pierced hard. It opened It's eyes to the pain and saw me standing with the sword. It stared straight into my eyes and became immobile.
I'd done it. I didn't need any prince's help and I clearly didn't need a man for my Happily Ever After. I stood there taking in the breeze and my new found freedom. I had a whole life and the world ahead of me!
