I left Astrid to read through some stories on Fanfiction while I ho for a walk around with Dipper and Stormfly. I have to go back home soon cause I have school. They say how importantit is but really you forget most of what you learn. AlthoughI do need to practice something.
"What do you guys think? We practice my dragonese so I can speak it without the stone?" The two dragons turn to me with a mischievous smile on both of their snouts.
"I think we can help with that" Stormfly muses, glancing to Dipper, who looks away to stop his laughter.
"you guys beter not try something like throwing me off a cliff or something stupid like that" I warn the two, who just roll their eyes.
We continue walking through the trees and bushes, theI look to the orange bright sun warm on my pale skin. Chirps and squwarks can be heard from dragons that are either playing in the warm sun, or sleeping peacefully, soaking up the last few couple hours of mid peak sun.
We reach a clearing next to a small waterfall, where some Gronkles are sleeping on the big rocks. I take a seat, admiring the sleeping beasts.
"so what do you want to start with? You guys are experts after all" I ask, leaning back on Dipper, who is happily talking to a purple and green Gronkle.
"how about we start with you only gently holding the stone. It should make it a bit more difficult for you" Stormfly suggests. I nod, letting the stone stit loosly in between my fingers.
"ok here goes. So how are you?" I speak most of the sentence in dragonese, but not all of it successfully.
"good try. Keep going, you'll get there" Dipper encourages, nodding at me.
"ok. My name is Indi and I have blue-ish grey eyes". I look to the two dragons ro see if I did get it this time.
Stormfly smiles happily, and urges me to continue practicing
"my hair is brown, and my skin is pale. My favorite colour is dark blue, the blue of an angry sea". I sigh, this is hard work.
"you are a human speaking dragonese. I am impressed" The Gronkle Dipper was talking to earlier turns to face me, seeing impressed and interested.
"Thank you. I do have help though", I raise the dragon jewel so the dragon can see it, and he gasps.
"the jewel. Well this is an interesting occurance. I thought the jewel to be gone forever. Never thought I'd get a chance to see it again, let alone see it in use". I look at the orangy' yellow stine at the tips of my fingers. This is something truly amazing.
"well do you know what else this stone is capable of?" I ask, curiosity growing inside of me. They did say they don't know all of what it can do. Maby it can do something else, something that could change the face of this earth.
"unfortunately no. But I have heard that it is capable of great evil if left in the wrong hands. Look after it" , with that, the Gronkle drifts off to sleep, and I chuckle silently.
"Well he was nice. What else should we do for me to get this right?"
"Well how about you put the stone down next to you so your not quite touching it but you are still close" Dipper says, look at the mossy soft ground next to me.I place it down onto the soft geen ground, the dark mossy green complimenting the reddish yellow of the stone.
"Here goes. I love dogs. I have two back home, and I love big dogs the most". Once again I look to the dragons for confermation and they nod excitedly. I jump up in happiness and give myself a high five.
"very very impressive. I must say I didn't expect you to get it that fast", Stormfly smiles, and croons at me gently.
"I am also very impressed. Although u have heard the cleaner tje heart, the easier it is" Dipper adds, making me smirk.
"so I have a clean heart huh? You know you're gonna regret saying that later" I say still smirking.
"yes I do regret saying that now. But moving on. Lets get rid of the stone altogether. No stone, not so easy".
"You are on" I challange and give the stone to Dipper, who walks about 100 metres away with the jewel in his mouth.
"peter piper picked a peck of pickled peppers". I grin evilly, knowing I got the sentence correct, and that I'll get extra credit because it's a tounge twister.
"hmph. You win" Dipper grumbles, defeated. My self and Stormfly chuckle at his babyish behaviour.
"here take your stone. We should be getting back anyway", he starts walking back towards the edge base, and me and Stormfly just roll our eyes and follow. Today has certainly been interesting, and it's only our first day back. I wonder what the rest of our stay will be like?
