Chapter 1
"There we are!" The captain yelled at me over the loud wind.
I jumped into the water. It was cold and wet as expected.
I gotta find some warm clothes.
While I swam to the beaches I saw a dragon glide through the water under me. Instinctively I dived down, then thought took over.
You can't take him now. Think clearly so you don't risk the objective.
I continued my way to the beach.
Wait, the beach? no you can't be noticed.
I swam around the island to look for another way to get to that island. Something more stony.
The only place for me to get out of the water was a 10 meters high sandstone cliff.
Oh great!
I climbed up said cliff. The wet clothes were really pulling me down but the longer I took the more water dripped down and the more water dripped down the lighter I got. Also the sun was up high and helped dry out the clothes.
After a while of climbing I finally reached the top. I walked through the woods looking around for something to eat, to make a fire and to have a camp.
I ran into a group of dragons pretty soon. They were less lizard-like and more like a bird. They had some sort of bone fan around their head and some really sharp looking spikes on their tails. The biggest of them, probably their group leader or something, stepped forward, ready to attack the invader of their territory. It spun around and shot three spikes at me. I quickly dodged them and even managed to pick one right out of the air to throw it back at that beast. unfortunately I didn't aim very well and the spike only bounced off its head instead of impaling it.
Seeing that I was immune to the spikes it decided to daze me with it's fire breath. Seeing an immense light when it opened it's mouth I closed on my eyes and relied on my ears to locate that beast.
I heard heavy, yet somehow light footsteps come closer. I stepped right and grabbed to where I assumed the fan horns were. I was proven right and pushed the horns forward, forcing the birds head to the ground. With all the strength I had I rammed my dagger into the birds neck. After a few centimeters I felt the blade touch something, then shatter. I pushed the rest of the dagger inside, leaving both the bird and my hand bloody.
I felt danger around me.
I had just killed the leader of a group of dragons.
I sniffed the wound, then looked at the group. I gave really slow and low growl. They sensed the danger and fled.
works every time.
I examined the corpse for what I could need. The wings weren't really useful, the head horns neither. The only useful thing about that animal was it's tail.
I cut it off. At the length of my own tail. Then I sliced it lengthwise with the broken dagger I pulled out of the bird's neck.
I wrapped it around my tail and felt it's essence flow through me.
To test the accuracy I shot a needle of a pine about 5 meters away. Just one single needle.
Well that is useful. Although I had better starts on previous missions.
As you may have guessed the protagonist is not a human. And I'm not gonna reveal what exactly he or it is.
