Dragon's Sauna
In a leisure centre based in the badlands of South London, man cub Tio acts like he's straight out of Compton.
He plays water basketball, and he only just made the squad. It was the only positive thing in his life, since his mum said, "Get a job!"
He would play after the sauna, and the heat would get him creamed, and he fancied all the chicas that were playing in his team.
In the pool, it could get quite vicious, just like lambs to the slaughter, in his speedo trunks n goggles on so that he could see under water.
He caught the ball in a four for all, and through it towards the floating hoop, it was a 3 pointer shot, and a girl called Dot said, "I didn't know that you could shoot..."
He smiled from the side of his boat and continued to play the game. When a dude called Troy, who was a bit of a boy, had to put Tio to shame.
He grabbed the ball from him, with an elbow swing that popped Tio in the nose.
He dropped back in the water, and it looked like a slaughter because it did explode!
The girls all giggled as Tio left the pool, and he hung his head like a fool, Troy apologised with a smirk on his boat, and all the girlies drooled.
All but one, which was a lass called Dot who had a soft spot for him, "shyt happens T, see you next practice, just take it on the chin!"
The next morning, Tio went for a sauna straight after the gym and who was sat there, but that douchebag Troy, that sat there with a grin.
Tio was a man child and and easily gullible, so Troy thought he would be a goon. He told Tio that there was a fire-breathing dragon heating the room!
"Wow, isiih?!" Tio asked surprisingly and excited, "Yes, it is!" Said Troy as the sauna peeps all giggled, then the heater was ignited.
The sound of the heated coals kinda sounded like a dragon fire breathing, Dot walked past while the boys all laughed to the next room for the steaming.
Tio took a cold shower and then popped into the steamer. He plonked a spot right next to Dot, just so he could sit near her.
"They're having you on silly. Don't listen to what they say!" Dot told Tio, as he stays stuck in his way.
Dot had her plates up and explained that it was good, so Tio did the same as her, I guess that he understood.
"It drains the blood from out of your feet, you see? Which pumps back around your body." Tio just lay there drained. He looked just like a druggy.
Dot laughed and sat up and said that she was cooked for now, as they exchanged goodbyes, and Tio closed his eyes as he lay back down.
Suddenly, he awoke to just a room of smoke. It was empty, and it was dark.
"Did I fall asleep?" He thought to himself and gave a nervous laugh.
He could still hear that fire-breathing sound from the other side of the walls. Was there a dragon maybe, or was he going crazy, so he opened up the door.
The spa room was completely different. It resembled more of a cave. Was he dreaming, or was he awake? Either way, he had to be brave!
He carried on walking through the blackness that led to a chamber door. He gave it a budge and nudged it open, and this is what he saw...
A giant dragon, fire breathing on the coals, it had lots of chains and shackled up. There was no way that it could go.
The dragon grabs him in his claws, about to eat him whole. He likes his spicy flavors. He dips him in his lava bowl.
Tio says, "I've had enough, I hate this dream, now please wake me up!!"
Tio comes to, deluded and dehydrated, waking up in the steam. Troy and his boys all laugh at him "Oh what a crazy dream!"
Tio unimpressed and barely stood up, wobbles towards the exit, and gave Troy an uppercut.
He knocks Troy unconscious on the floor, he looked like a ragged door-matt. "Sweet dreams, Troy, now it's time for you to visit the Dragon's Sauna!"
