The Firebird and the Dragon
Title: The Firebird and the Dragon
Author/Artist: GuiltyRed
Rating: G
Warnings: none
Word count: 404
Summary: Often, that which goes unspoken speaks the loudest.
Prompt: Treize/Wufei: The difference between victory and defeat - "Who knows where my dreams will end, I'll follow as they grow."
A/N: I’ve always pictured Treize to have a Russian pedigree that he could trace back to the age of the Tzars, and with that background comes the legend of the Firebird. Its name literally means “ember bird” – aglow with flameless fire. It signifies fortune both good and ill, and is itself a symbol of power and wealth: large, strong, and shining like gold.
As for Wufei, the connection to dragons is canon. A little research on top of that and I think his horoscope sign would be the Metal Dragon: strong-willed, inflexible, unbending, combative and ruthless. Metal Dragon proceeds alone if no one will follow, and he will fight until he wins for he will never bow to failure.
Dark eyes glare up at me, and I realize: I am the one defeated.
