Dragon's winter:

Jane and Dragon get along fairly well for not being from the same species—Jane, a human girl and Dragon. (I hope you know what he is!) But recently, strange visions of another dragon egg mixed with the writing on the wall and the "monster" that haunts Dragon have put the two of them on edge. Meanwhile, neither knows that Dragon's visions are in fact reality. Ahi, a young girl with a troubled past and present, finds the mysterious egg. When it hatches, Ahi must try her best to hide the baby dragon. This proves to be no small feat as there is a group of boys who seem to be on—and possibly in-- on Ahi's secret. When Jane and Ahi meet, how will their dragons fair against the great evil coming?

Well, that's the good summary. Below is the whole I don't own such and such stuff.

I don't own any of the Jane and the Dragon characters. I do own Ahidaha, Lightnose, Kai, Shadow, Tigre, Julian, Dan, Ankoku, Itami, L, Kouyou, Jakku, Bones… The list goes on, but I don't want to bore you to death with it. Just read, please.

Dragon's winter

Chapter 1: The Storm of Change

CRASH! BOOM! Jane sat straight up in her bed with a shriek as her window blew open. Ordinarily, this wouldn't have bothered her, but tonight was a different case, considering that it was thundering outside. She ran to the window, closed, and latched it firmly. As she settled back down into bed, a thought entered her head. I hope Dragon is holding out.

Dragon, meanwhile, was in his cave, looking out at the rain.

How am I supposed to sleep with this entire racket? He thought as another loud boom echoed throughout the valley. After a couple hours, the thunderstorm dwindled down into a light rain shower. Listening to the light rhythm of the rain, Dragon slowly slid off into his dreams.

At first, it seemed like he was staring at a grove of trees in some field, but almost instantly, a flash of light appeared near the first branch of one of the trees. An egg appeared there, large and jet-black. As it sat there in the crook of the branch, a lightening bolt shot through the trees and struck it broadside. He gasped as it fell several feet and hit the ground, the spot on which the lightening struck gently smoking.

Then, something amazing happened. The clouds parted for a moment, just enough to let some moonlight in, and when it did, the spot on the egg that had been burned turned a smooth shade of silver, like a star in the night sky. Some time went by, and Dragon saw a human being, a girl, come into the grove. At first, he held out a paw, trying to stop her from getting any closer to the egg, but she passed right through him, like he was a ghost. She looked down at the egg, touched it lightly, and seemed to consider something. Then she picked the egg up, and put it gently into her sack, making sure it was cushioned protectively. He watched as she left the grove and headed toward a town on the horizon.

"Dragon!" a cry erupted through his dream. It faded and he slowly opened his eyes.

Jane was standing over his head, looking very scared.

"Dragon!" she cried again, and this time he answered her, noting the fact that his head was throbbing lightly.

"Don't yell… my head hurts…" he said, and to his surprise, Jane threw himself onto his nose, hugging it tightly. "Oh, Dragon…"

"Did I miss something?" he asked, bemused by Jane's reaction.

"You didn't answer when I called from outside, so I came in and found you lying on your side…"

Dragon took a quick look at where he was and realized that his position had indeed changed. When he had fallen asleep last night, it had been on his stomach and toward the front of the cave. Now he was on his side and in the back.

"…and the first two times I tried to wake you, you didn't stir." She finished, looking a little worried. "Are you, feeling well?"

"Fine, except for my head. Oww…" he said as his head gave another painful throb. Jane's worried look was instantly elevated.

"I'm fine, Jane, really." He said, noticing the look.

"Your head hurts?" she asked.

"A little." He winced as his head gave another throb, although it was less painful than before.

"So, are we going on patrol?" Dragon asked, ignoring his head.

"I don't know… Are you sure you're alright?" she asked.

"Like I said before, I'm fine." He said, putting emphasis on the last word, but the effect was ruined slightly by another throb.

"Well, if you're alright then, I guess we can go."
