…The dark shadow turned with its dragon-like head facing me. it's eyes red enough to pierce the night looking straight into mine.
"You can't do this for your own fun. Stop killing the creatures of eldenstok." I said.
"O.K.… I'll stop after I kill you!" The Dark shadow said as he reared his head back. He lunged forward, and I screamed.
I woke up terrified and looked around. "It was just a nightmare'" I said looking at the ceiling.
"Wake up, Gabe, today is your birthday!" My mom said walking into the room and pulling up the blinds. "It seems like yesterday when I used to tuck you in at night," She said walking to the door. "Oh, Uncle Tim called and said that Uncle Dave died, so we inherit his house. Start packing!" she said as she left the room.
"Could life get any worse on my 13th birthday!" I said getting out of bed. I walked down the stairs and tripped over something at the bottom step. It was a dog, and it licked my face while I was on the floor.
"I see you met your present," my mom said, "isn't he cute!"
"Yeah, cute and slobbery." I said sarcastically.
"What are you going to name him?" She asked.
"He has a scruffy face… I'll name him scruff," I said.
"Well, go and eat breakfast and pack, because there's a long trip ahead of us!" she said going off the subject.
I ate breakfast and packed and packed and packed some more. Then, Threw the boxes into the moving van that was outside. I Put a leash on scruff and got into the moving van.
"You ready?" my mom asked and I knodded. "Then here we go."
