Chapter 2
Xuithcoal
I walked on the dry sand of the Sandsea, continued to be beaten down by the heat of the sun. I can't last any longer without food, and I'm running out of water. Suddenly I see an egg half-buried in the sand, was it a mirage? I went over to it and picked it up.
"It is real! What luck!"
I dusted off the sand, and set up a campfire. I used the things in my backpack, to make the fire. I stretched my hand to grab the egg, when it suddenly moved. Great now I can't cook it, I guess I'll just eat whatever was inside. The egg cracked and a sleeping dragon lied on its remains, it snored softly.
"Awwww, so cute!"
"How can I eat anything to cute and innocent?"
It opened its eyes and yawned; he looked up at me, and let out a little whine. It got up and came over to me, I patted his head.
"I won't eat you but you'll make a great companion"
It breathed fire on the ground, and a rhinake (A mix of rhino and snake) that was hiding in the sand died. It would have attacked me if given a chance, I blinked at that thought. He saved my life, I patted his head again.
"Thanks, you'll make a great hunter too"
"You need a name… Hunter?" He shook his head.
"True, not very creative"
"Ian?" It shook its head.
"Too plain? Alright then how bout…"
"Xuithcoal?" It roared in approval.
"Alright Xuithcoal, I'm Tech" I was bonded to him on that day.
