The Lawyer and the Queen

Meeting (Un-Edited)

Ethan White sat back in his chair. He was chewing the end of his pencil. He found that it strangely calmed him down, but it was more to keep himself entertained with his boring life. Ethan White was a twenty-five years old, 6'1'' male human. He had dark brown hair and sea green eyes. He had a modest set of muscle on his body. He worked out here and there since he knew a healthy life style was the best way to live. He was in a brown suit as he sat behind his desk. Ethan worked at a local law firm in Florida. He was a smart kid and was able to make it through college and then law school. He was able to pass the bar exam in one take, but took him a lot of studying. He was now a lawyer, but he found it wasn't what he had expected. But he felt other things in his life were the reason he felt so bored with it.

He sighed as he looked at his clock. He saw that it was 5 pm. He sighed happily as his day was over. He packed up his brief case and closed up his office. He then proceed out and waved goodbye to all the people that worked at the firm. He then went out to his convertible and then placed his keys in the ignition. He then began to drive down the road to his house.

Just another boring day at the office. Man, I never thought that I would live such a boring life. I mean, I thought the life of a lawyer would have been interesting. But I have to say, this is completely boring. He slowly pulled into his private drive. He lived in a forest area of Florida. It allowed him to live without many neighbors. He liked living without many people troubling him. He soon parked his car outside his one story house. Even though he had a large salary, he still left a one story house with two bedrooms and one and half baths was great. Plus he had a nice backyard. He got out of his car and locked it.

He walked up to his door and began to insert his keys into the lock. He then turned them and was hit with cool air from his air conditioner. He didn't mind the Florida heat of Summer, but it could get crazy. He closed the door and placed his brief case in his home office. He then walked over to his room and changed into something more comfortable. He came back out in a grey colored t-shirt and a pair of basketball shorts. He stretched out his back as he walked into his kitchen. He went over to his fridge and pulled out a tub with some left overs in it. Inside was a modest sized burrito from last night. He popped it into the microwave and began to let it cook.

He lend against the counter and looked at his nice house. But he sighed as it felt so empty. He had a large loving family back in South Carolina, but he found his job in Florida. Sure he could have worked in South Carolina, but this job paid more and was something he was always looking for when he was searching for law firms. But he never thought he would feel so lonely. He sighed as he heard the microwave beep at him. He pulled out his meal and grabbed a fork from a drawer. He then sat at his table and began to eat. He looked at the other chair and sighed again.

If I keep bumming myself like this, I might not find my life here. There's plenty of single ladies in Florida, well if they are interested in a lawyer like me. I guess I'm just to average for them. Well I guess I just keep moving along till retirement. Well I never now, the right girl might just be right outside, in my backyard. He chuckled to himself as he kept eating his food. When he was finished, he placed the tub and fork in the sink. He then went outside to water the vegetables and fruits he had planted. He found gardening to be quit relaxing, plus he blamed his mother for getting him into gardening.

He opened his sliding door that led out to his screen in patio. He then opened another door, which took him to his yard. He went over and looked over his garden. It was full of all types of vegetables and fruits. He looked through his garden to make sure no weeds had began to grow up. He then checked to see if any of his plants were ready to be picked. He could easily see that none were. He then grabbed his watering hose and began to water his plants. When he was finished he put his hose away. He was about to go inside when he heard a thud. He turned around and couldn't believe his eyes.

On his lawn was a some kind of bug horse thing. He ran up to it. When he got close, he could see it close its eyes. Huh, must have fell unconscious. He then looked over the strange creature. He could see that it was covered in some kind of black armor. Its hair or mane in this case and tail were a cerulean. It had a few set of holes throughout it. He could also see that its hooves also had holes in them, making them look like Swiss cheese. It had a strange jagged horn coming out of its head. It then had a pair of bug wings on its back with some kind of green thing on her body where the wings were folded onto.

I have never seen anything like it. I wonder what gender this thing is. Ethan went over to her tail and gently pulled it up. He easily put it down as a slight blush came to her face. Well female it is, I'll make sure never to look there again. He went back to the front of her and looked at her face. He then saw the fangs that hung from her upper lip. I wonder who and what she is. He scratched his head and looked up to see storm clouds rolling in and the distant boom of thunder. Oh what to do, should I call somebody. Well I'm pretty sure everybody would call, would think I was high on something. The police, well they might just think the same thing. The government's out, since I have no idea who I would even call. Well I guess I should take her in and make sure she's ok. Then when she wakes up, I'll get my answers.

Ethan bent down and lifting with his knees, picked up the strange female bug horse thing. He then took her into his home as the wind began to pick up. Crazy timing storm, but I guess we were planned to have rain for this weekend. Ethan opened the door to his screened in patio of his home and then walked into his house. He closed the sliding door. He then gently set the bug horse thing on his couch. He then went over to make some tea as the storm began to rage outside his house. I guess I was lucky to get her before the storm got her. Well I guess it did happen, I found a girl right outside, in my backyard. Ethan chuckled to himself as he kept brewing up the tea. He had so many questions to ask this new stranger. But little did he know, this was the beginning of something more than he could have ever expected.
