Sabre the dragon is determined to catch and capture Sigma, as a 'thank-you' for capturing him and tickling him some time ago. Unfortunately, when he finally tracks the raptor down, a confrontation ensues, and in the confusion Sigma is knocked out. While a struggle takes place, his body is switched with that of Theta, a young scout with similar markings, and ends up being lifted away to Sabre's distant cave in the mountains instead.

Sabre doesn't realise his mistake until the sun rises, and he's already teased his captive. Humorously, Theta is discovered to be a gay raptor, and Sabre, looking after his pet well, finds that he receives a lot more affection than he was expecting! Sabre is a huge dragon, way larger than even a utahraptor. This naturally results in some interesting little escapades between the two bondage lovers...

So, as the title says, a friend is the most precious treasure of all.

Drawn in 2007. Sabre belongs to SabreDragon. Feral Theta is my character, back in the very ancient days when most of my raptor characters were non-anthro.
