hi everyone! I'm back! I had an amazing time on vacation, but I'm glad to be back. I'm sorry for the short chapter but I promise another one tomorrow or Sunday.

i don't own anything!

Smaug kept low to the ground as he peered around a rock at the stag he and Scatha was stalking. It had its head down feeding in the long green grass. The stag's antlers branched out from the top of its head and poked out just above the top of the grass. Smaug's mouth water at the thought of his teeth sinking into soft stag flesh. He sniffed the air and smelled Scatha on his right side, hiding in some berry bushes. Scatha flicked the tip of his tail toward Smaug. Smaug brought his hind legs underneath his belly, arching his back for more power. He thrust out his hind legs, putting all his power in the launch as Smaug hurtled toward the stag.

The stag spooked and ran toward the berry bushes at full speed. Scatha launched himself at the stag and the two of them crashed full force into each other. Their was a cracking as the stags entire chest cavity collapsed in on itself from the impact with hard dragon scales. Smaug strutted over to Scatha and the dead stag.

"Good kill Scatha!" Smaug said. "Apparently Doriath still has great stags!"

"You were right this time Smaug!" Scatha teased, cracking his tail like a whip. Smaug jumped at the snap aimed at his rump.

"Want me to take it back to camp while you continue hunting?" Scatha asked. Smaug nodded and Scatha wrapped his jaws around the stag's midsection and trotted away with the stag flopping like a rag doll.
Smaug launched into the air snapping open his wings, and gliding just above the sea of lush green grass, and random tree patches. Smaug's scales on his shoulder were growing back and his elbow was better, but he still couldn't fly for extreme distances without pain flaring up.

Movement in the grass caught Smaug's eye and he landed not to far from it. He cautiously walked toward it. Smaug nudged some grass out of the way and suddenly, a rabbit burst out making him jump. He roared and gave chase to the rabbit. It's fluffy white tail bobbed just out of his reach, so Smaug jumped toward it and tackled the rabbit grabbing it in his jaws. It squealed as it was tossed into the air, and hit the ground with a thump. It tried to run but Smaug pounced on it like a cat, trapping it under his for-claws. He slowly removed his claws, giving the rabbit a chance to escape, but the rabbit huddled in the grass trembling with fear. Smaug sniffed it, then nudged it with his nose. It jumped once then went back to trembling, and flashing the white of its eyes.

"Why don't you run for your life, my little mid morning snack?" Smaug sneered at the rabbit cowering in the grass.

"I am a dragon from the North! I am the son of the greatest dragon to ever live! I am fire!" He breathed a red hot jet of flame into the sky. The rabbit squealed and tried to run but was snatched, tossed, and eaten all within a few seconds. Smaug licked his lips with pleasure and launched back into the air to continue his hunt.

yeah it was kind of random chapter of Smaug just being Smaug but another one will be up soon! Please Review!
