My eyes shot open, I was on alert. The memories where fresh in my mind. Everything related to Hermaeus and my previous life. Scanning my surroundings I noticed I was in a large cave with a passageway which could fit a house.
Standing up I noticed the changes in my body. I had become bipedal and acquired a new set of limbs, my wings. The scales on my body where a beautiful scarlet. Noticing a pool of water within my cave I headed towards to see my reflection. It was then that the realisation hit me. I had become a dragon. A girl dragon but non the less a dragon. It was the dream of any man to be a dragon, the apex predator of legends.
A dark-colored fiery-man running down my back and arms, which appear to be connected to towards my feathery wings. While having three pairs of extensions from her jaw, dark-colored wing-like patterns over my eyes that's complemented by two more oval patterns right above it, the bigger one on the bottom and the smaller one on top. Their was also some of them on my paws, four extending from the forearm and three on each finger. There's a noticeable border abover the nostrils that divides my mouth from her face, extending near the back of the head. Finally, their is a pair of jagged horns extending from the base of the skull and feather-like scales extending from the back of her knees.
Looking towards what I can only assume is the exit I made my way towards the surface. As I moved forward the tunnel became tighter, I did notice this however it was alright for me to travel through. Some time had passed but soon I saw some light breaking through. The passage was to small for me to travel though, breaking into a charge i speeded forwards. Upon making contact with the wall it shattered under my physical strength, rocks bounced of my scales leaving only metallic clinks.
After bursting through the wall i was able to see a magnificent swathe of fauna and foliage. Their was trees larger then me, the scent around this place was pleasant and pleasing. It was almost relaxing even. Closing my eyes I took in a deep breath before letting out a thunderous and mighty roar. "RAWWRRRRRRR!! All the air I held in my lungs was expelled. A shockwave tore up the ground with 100 metres of me whist the roar itself covered the howl range of mountains.
Whist looking at what I was able to accomplish from a mere roar I couldn't help but smile. "Who doesn't want to let out a roar like that when you become a dragon" Just as I was about to leave my own little mental world of happiness the voice of Hermaeus entered my mind. " hello again lost soul or should I call you Irene now, hahahaha. Moving on i gave the wheel another spin to see if you could unlock the understanding and knowledge of how to use your powers! Luckily for you it was another win, so here is the knowledge. Good luck and live a good life"
As he finished a splitting headache appeared. Although uncomfortable it was definitely worth it since I didn't have to spend so much time discovering the powers of a character I'd never known.
Using my newly found knowledge I was able to transform myself into a human appearance. In the distance I noticed a stream of what was left of a creek. Looking once again at my reflection in the water I could t help but be stunned. A tall, voluptuous woman with thick bow-adorned, scarlet hair which trailed along the floor behind me. " that will be a problem." Searching my surroundings I picked up a twig and placed an enchantment upon it to turn it into a hair tie. Once I'd finished I was drawn towards my reflection again. Making a few more hair ties I began to braid my hair. It was something I was familiar with since I'd do it for my younger sister in my past life. The movements I made was almost instinctual and I have me a hair style which suited me perfectly.
Once I was finished i looked somewhat presentable. " shit, I don't have any clothes. " looking down I couldn't help but marvel at my own body. I was a U cup, a fucking U cup. From my enchantment magic I was able to tell my 3 measurements. Bust 118 cm, waist 64 cm, hips 130.cm. It was insane body, any woman would be jealous of these unobtainable proportions. Using my enchantment magic on some bark I turned it into a red tunic but something just felt of with this look. Deciding to try again and let my subconscious make the clothes what appeared before me was some rather questionable attire with a large witch's hat.
I was stunned whist looking at the attire which was made. " meh who knows maybe it'll be fun to wear something like this" taking of the tunic I began to put on the questionable clothes.
It consisted of a black top with a diamond-shaped opening, exposing a portion of my breasts, and a heart-shaped pattern around the borders. It extends down to the naval of the stomach is draped over by a dark-colored cape with a light-colored inside and two medallion gold-like ornaments, and is held together by a golden chain. Not left bare, too, my neck is decorated by other small cloth-based accessories, including a wide bow. Additionally, their is an elongated black loincloth with the symbol emblazoned on its front, having white borders on its edges and being connected to another cloth piece with the very same heart-shaped design. black thigh-high boots with heels that have a white-colored border near the top and gloves of the same color and design, only having claw-like extensions. The black witch's hat is much larger than her head and possesses white bandaging near its ends. It also has fur lining on its edges.
At my own appearance I couldn't help but be mesmerised. " so red lipstick would really match this outfit. Wait get it together your man" slapping my cheeks to compose myself I needed to find where I was. Walking in some random direction to find civilisation.
Eventually I had found a path and began to follow it until I found a sign with a name I recognised. " Yellowstone National Park huh? I've never been before at least I know where I am." The sign pointed in multiple directions but the one labelled ranger station was the one I'd head towards since it would eventually lead to the exit.
As I was travelling peacefully with a smile on my lips I didn't know that I caused a certain hero with super hearing to panic at my earlier roar.

"RAWWRRRRRRR" everything was shaking, I was scared, distraught even. Forcing myself I hold onto the table I closed my eyes " I never signed up for this!!" I couldn't help but scream. ' did someone awaken an ancient Beast or something.' After around 40 seconds the roar stopped but I didn't move. Who knows it might roar again. After a solid minute of nothing happening I picked up my park communication device and began to called everyone one I could and ask for help.
They all said the same thing " we'll call the police and get help you sit tight" they abandoned me. I couldn't help but think In horror they must have heard it too right, yet they left me up here to day. " if I survive this I'm handing in my notice." As everything around me grew quite i couldn't help but panic more. The thing that roared where is it, will it come for me. My heart right began to increase and I subconsciously muttered over and over for help.
" ranger are you all right" my eyes shot open I was so scared I screamed like a girl " ahhhhhhhhhahhhh! I don't want to die" however i immediately stopped as a saw super-man floating by the window of the tower. At my dumbfounded expression he just sighed picked me up and flew me over towards the entrance of Yellowstone. Along the way he asked me questions after questions about what could have gave of this roar. I'm truth I didn't know but it was close I knew it. Once we arrived super-man dropped me off and flew away I'm the direction of the roar. My boss and coworkers came running out to the building screaming my name " are you alright son, we where so worried about …" before he could finish I raised my hand " I quit, I'm done with this place to dangerous "
Walking over towards my car I immediately left Yellowstone " an office job isn't to bad actually, just need to stay out of Gotham" driving towards my house I began to plan my new life without yellow stone.

After dropping of the ranger of I returned towards where I believed the epicentre of the roar came from. Must at a fast speed I was able to arrive and discovered large foot prints " justice Leauge come in" after a few seconds I got my response " it's Batman. What's the problem" moving my watch closer to my face I began to explain " around 10 minutes ago a large roar which covered the entire of Yellowstone National Park was released, I've discovered footprints of the animal but after a few steps all signs of it disappeared. It appears to have come from a cave, how do you think I should proceed?" After pausing for a moment I got my response " the beast could be magical in nature. Me and Wonder Woman are on route ETA 6 minutes. " at this I could only nod and wait for him to arrive.
Looking around I couldn't help but marvel at the destruction a single roar caused " the beast must have been large for a roar to release this much force" sitting on a broken tree I contemplated about the current events in my life and how well everything has been going, I've progressed with Lois and after steppenwolf attacked we even formed the justice league to combat global threats. Even then I can't help it not lowering my guard. I feel as if something will go wrong sooner then not.
6 minutes later Batman and Wonder Woman are standing next to me. " right shall we get this over with" was all I could say I wanted to get back to Lois. They both gave me an astute nod before we made our way into the cave with me leading Batman in the middle and Wonder Woman at the rear. " did you get an idea of what the creature is?" Asking the question to both. Batman responded "No, I was able to find a recording from one of the phones within the park. I sent the data to bat girl she is cross referencing it as we speak" giving him a nod we continue down the hall.
30 minutes later we came to a dome like area. Their was a water source in the corner. I payed it no head Batman however took a sample. As we continue looking around the beast lair Batman was able to find a fake wall. Returning to our former position we entered. What greater us was a dark room however once we took a footstep inside torches began to light.
The lit touches revealed a wall with a skull above it. The skull was a large reptilian with horns resembling a mythical dragon. The wall it's self was a mural, it told a tale " this is troubling no" batmans usual stoic face turned grim " this is something to do with the supernatural. It will most likely require doctor fate, Giovanni and maybe even Constantine assistance" realising a sigh I couldn't help but voice my dissatisfaction " god I hate magic" only Batman gave a grunt of acknowledgement.
