I wake up at dawn and sit up.I can see the first rays of sunlight through
the opening of my tent.Not a lot because the sunlight is limited through
the amount of trees in The Spine. I look next to me and notice the pretty
green rock from yesterday.I grab it and set it on my lap. I get this feeling
it's more than just a rock whenever I look at it. I stare at it for a few moments and it doesnt do anything.
"Ok, it's a rock" I sigh and set it back down on the ground. "Maybe I'm just
losing my mind a little"
I look back at the rock and then get out of my tent and start a fire. After the
fire is started I cook up some leftover meat from last night and eat. After
finishing my meal I grab the rock back out of my tent and put it back on my lap
and stare at it again.
"Do something already...."I say shaking the rock."this feeling wont go away.
Do something!" I stop shaking it and sigh. I am losing my mind! So, I just sit
with the rock in my lap for awhile just watching the fire, trying to decide what
to do for today. After several moments the rock shakes. I look down at the rock
thinking that it didnt really happen when it shakes again after I look down at it. I stare at it when something pokes a hole out through the inside of it. I yelp and roll it off my lap and stand up. It's an egg!! I stare as the hole gets bigger and a claw pokes through.
"what is it?" I ask out loud. then the rest of the egg breaks apart.
and in the middle of the pieces is a beautiful baby dragon. It's scales are a bright green, the same shade of my eyes it's belly just a few shades darker. It's eyes a bright red. It shakes some pieces of egg shell off of it's head and looks at me. I stare back at it.
"A....dragon....but how.....oh my god..." I say unable to finish a sentence.
A dragon egg! it was a dragon egg. and now right in front of me is a baby dragon. how did it get into the spine? I thought dragons were extinct.
The dragon trots towards me and, suddenly afraid, I walk backwards away from it. It stops and looks at me, and It's eyes look sad. I stop retreating and frown.
"I'm-I'm sorry little one, it's just that your a dragon and i heard that theyre dangerous...can you already breathe fire?" I ask it and then realize Im talking to an animal and put my hand to my head. Of course he cant understand me hes an animal. Dragons are animals, animals dont talk. I look over at It and he puts his head down.I look at it for a moment and then walk slowly towards it. It keeps his head down.I walk right in front of it and kneel down. He looks up and I fall back onto my bottom and scoot away. He puts his head back down. I sigh in relief.
"Okay so you won't hurt me" I say and sit cross-legged."and I wont hurt you."
I motion for it to come to me and it walks over next to me. I reach out and pat its head.
All of a sudden I feel a painful jolt through my hand. I tear my hand away and look at my hand. In the center of my palm is an oval. I gasp and look at the dragon. It rubs up against my thigh and I touch it again. I feel another charge go through me and I feel someone elses emotions. The dragons. It's happy and it's a boy. I smile as he gets into my lap and I pet him.
I've never felt so close to anyone like this. I feel like this dragon and I were meant to be together. Maybe that's why the egg appeared. He's my partner. I look at the dragon's face.
"So what should I name you?" I say to him and look at his bright red eyes.I think about it for a minute when it comes to me.
"Leviathan!" I say aloud. He perks up at the sound of the name and I smile."You like it? Well, I'm Avariella, or Avari for short." I lay down and set Leviathan next to me and pet him. I stare up at the tops of the trees and smile.
"I think we're gonna be together for a very long time Leviathan." I look at him and he looks back at me and I smile, definetely not lonely anymore.
