Come.
She opened her eyes, startled by the voice.
Come to me. I will take your pain away
She sat up; the voice was soft yet raspy. It was as if it was…drawing her in.
Get up. I will enfold you in a blanket of security.
She took the blankets off and got off the bed. She headed toward the door…down the long metal hallway, to a door….a door, so foreboding…yet…comforting. She was reaching for the handle, almost there-
"Dragon! Wake up!" A voice yelled, making the girl twist out of bed in surprise.
She put her hand on her head and pulled her knees to her chest and hugged them.
Just a dream, but it felt…so….real. Dragon thought.
"Dragon, you ok in there?" A new voice asked.
"Yeah, just let me get ready!" She called to them.
She smiled. Can always count on Dark Wing to ruin a good dream. Light Wing would have at least let me sleep for five more minutes.
Five minutes later she got out of the shower and got dressed in her usual cloths. She snapped her swords on and walked out side. She walked down the long metal hallway and past Mac, who was reading a book, strait into Antauri.
"Good morning Dragon, off to breakfast?" He asked as she helped him off the floor.
"Yep, who cooked?" She asked hoping Light Wing stayed away from the kitchen.
"Dark Wing, and it's chocolate pancakes today." He said as he rounded the corner and out of site.
Dragon smiled to herself and headed down to the kitchen where the sweet aroma of chocolate mixed with the mingle of voices. She looked in to see who was there.
Matt and Mac were joking and fighting for the last piece of bacon, until Dark Wing brought in another plate which the boys just attacked. Min-Min, Ren, and Estela were I a deep conversation about new attack techniques or something. Dragon smiled and walked in.
She sat in between Estela and Nova. She piled her plate with pancakes and bacon. She soon forgot about the dream as she got into a conversation about gems with Gibson.
Later they headed into the main room for a lector from Gibson. Dragon sighed; she prayed that it wouldn't be boring. As Gibson was talking about the Trachea and Bronchi allotments, something went off.
At first everyone thought it was the alarm, but they soon realized that it was Gibsons' scanner. Gibson quickly picked it up and pushed buttons. Gibson shook his head after a few minutes of looking.
"That's…impossible." He whispered, but everyone heard him.
"What's impossible?" Min-Min asked.
"Nothing, let's get back to the lector. Now where was I? Oh yes, Alveoli." He started back into the lector.
Dragon sighed and looked out the window and into space. What could that voice mean about taking away the pain? Was it real? And was it a threat? She turned her attention to Matt who was dozing off.
