In Which Magic Space Dragon Teens Fight Evil, aka INWMSDTFE, aka Magic Space Dragon Teens, aka MSDT, aka "Missed It"
Location: ERR. Time: ERR
Abaddon, the bottomless pit. Beyond the stars, in the darkest corner of the infinite heavens, lies a swirling portal through which no one and nothing can escape. It is here that the most evil of spirits, demons, and monsters are held captive. Nine beasts guard the mouth of the portal, ancient sentinels with fearsome powers, crafted from the quintessence of the universe – the Nine Guardian Dragons.
Fire. Water. Earth. Air. Wood. Metal. Lightning. Void. Blood.

Christbelle Black looked down at her phone, and then up at the demon standing before her.
“You don’t look, uh… like the picture….” At her feet laid a yellowed book – “Dark Magic for Dark Leadership”, written by some obscure Vegas phone psychic in the 80s. It was riddled with typos and blatant conspiracy theories, a clear cash grab. There was no way it was real magic, since magic wasn’t even real.
“But did you summon me?”
“Yes?”
“Good enough! Then you’re the body I need.”
All the crappy little dollar store tealight candles exploded, a flash fire overtaking the empty classroom. Her screaming was drowned out by the fire alarm.
Later that evening...
The demon leaned over Christabelle’s bathroom sink, peering at one dark brown eye, and one deep crimson one. He hesitated, and jabbed at the red eye, yelping and swearing in a sixteen-year old girl’s voice. His eyes – her eyes, really, but his for now – welled up with tears.
“I told you to fucking – augh!” In that moment of pain, Christy had wrestled back control, only to have her soul violently chucked from the metaphorical cockpit of her body.
“I’ve killed men ten times your size, brat! I can take out a so-called contact lens!”
Earlier that day but before that evening...
"Define, 'escaped'."
"Well, sir... he's not in his cell."
"No, no, I heard that part. I thought I heard you tell me he wasn't in Abaddon at all, and we both know that's impossible."
The Guardian Dragon of Water tittered nervously. The other eight had volunteered her for the task of breaking the news to the Warden. It may have been because she was the most polite of them, or it could have been because she ratted out their poker tournament last week.
"I-it's really funny you say that sir, because -"
"Fix it, or I'll replace you with a goldfish and you can take his spot."
A teensy bit later...
The dragons crowded around the jagged tear in the empty cell, staring through the void at the tiny blue-green planet. It looked so innocent, so unsuspecting.
"That world doesn't even look like it has magic...."
"They're so dead."
"What are you doing? There's no way you can fit through that tear."
"Are you calling me fat?!"
"No, I'm stating an objective fat - I mean fact."
"Hold on, I got this. Let me just -"
"Careful, if you make that hole any bigger, she might actually fit through it. Wouldn't want anyone to get crushed, now would we?"
"I am going to KILL YOU."
"What if we just... drop in something?"
"Like what, a bomb?"
"No, like... uhm... a lucky coin? I mean, we're basically plated in them."
"I... wow, that might actually work."
"Yeah! And then we can - WHAT WAS THAT FOR??"
".... My scales are solid metal. I picked the smallest one I could reach."
"I'm confused, are we using the scales or the bombs?"
"NOT THAT KIND OF BOMB! Put your tail down!"
"They're really dead."
"Hey! There's another hole!"
"That's what she said!"
"Never mind. We're dead."
