No-One Knows
I was made into this world for good. My clay is good. I am good. I help out with problems, I make them better. The only thing is… no-one knows. That's what I thought, until my friends were made. We are a team now. Gazen, Grake, Gip and I. That is how it is now, helping the humans. But they don't know. Only we know, But I-Gazzif the dragon- wants to change this. The Holly and The Abbey must know our secrets (they are our creators). The question is, how, when and what. How do we do it? When will we do it? What will we do?
Chapter One
We were sitting on our window sill, hatching up a plan when The Holly walking in. We scrabbled for our normal positions then froze into our clay forms. The Holly was a daughter of Guinevere. She was 11 and her hair was turning redder by the day. She, of course, did not know this, nor did The Abbey. No-one knows this-except from us, the dragons. In our solid form we can still see and hear, we just can't move. The Holly opened up her laptop and the screen lit up. For some reason her background was lots of kiwis. It's strange really, she doesn't even like kiwis! I will never understand humans. Anyway, she walked over to us then picked up Grake and I. She took us over to her Pine desk then carefully put us down. She did the same for Gip and Gazen. She was talking to us like she knew our secret. She doesn't know our secret. No-one knows our secret. But they must know. We can't tell them about the darkling otherwise. Daughters of Guinevere are being killed by them. The Holly doesn't know. The Abbey doesn't know. No-one knows but us- The dragons.
On The Holly's laptop, there was a flashing icon. I'd never seen it before. It was bigger, a lot bigger, then the others. The Holly was a curious girl so clicked on it. Suddenly, her screen turned amber yellow. Something was coming out of the screen! I instantly knew what it was. An Ix vortex! A body was coming out of it; a pair of black wings came out. Then emerged a head. Soon a obsidian darkling was sitting on The Holly's keypad. I didn't care if she didn't know that I was alive. I sprang into action and entered my real form. The others followed. They all knew they had to destroy the darkling. The Holly screamed louder than Simon Cowell complaining at a singer (I didn't think that was possible). The darkling hissed at us as The Holly collapsed on the floor. She had fainted.
"I didn't think you had a heart", I told the darkling.
"I don't need a heart, I am a darkling", it said.
"Why are you here?"
"Destroy all daughters of Guinevere".
"Why does that mean The Holly?" Luckily, why the darkling and I were talking, Gip, Gazen and Grake were quietly but quickly slipping The Holly into her cupboard.
"She is a daughter, so she must die". At that point, I checked behind my shoulder and Grake gave a paw up.
"Speaking of The Holly, where is she?" The darkling looked up from me (what a relief for me! Those eyes were scaring me!) then searched the room. It jumped down from the desk then scrabbled through the room, still looking. It didn't know. No-one knew but us.
"Give up darkling", we all said, "you will never find her".
"I'll be back!" It spat. He then flapped those horrible, obsidian wings then took off through the window. We all helped to get The Holly back out of the cupboard then carefully laid her on the floor.
Eventually, she came through. We should tell her our secret- she must be able to defend herself from the darkling. She looked around at us with wide eyes (which were flashing purple), her mouth was opening and closing like a fish.
"Who? How? What just happened?" she questioned us. One by one we told her about us and our secret. No-one knows but us and The Holly. We were a team now.
