Okay people! Next chapter up and I would like to thank everyone who reviewed! Anyway! On with the story!
Previously:
Night had fallen when she had just finished dinner and was cleaning up. She got ready for bed and went to sleep. This time her dream was that she was flying through the sky and everything was small beneath her. It was one of the nicest dreams she had but was woken up by a sudden
CRACK!...
Story:
Lizzie sat up at the noise and turned to see what had made it. On the table sat the stone, quivering. It had a large crack in it and a hand poked out form the side. It is an egg, Lizzie thought as she sat watching in awe at the miracle of sorts that was happening right in front of her eyes. Aleta sang a note in amazement as she watched too.
A shard of the egg flew towards Lizzie and landed in her hand. She picked it up and looked at it. It was as smooth as glass and was a pearly white. She averted her eyes back to the egg to see that instead of a smooth stone was a dragon. A white dragon with terrifying claws for one so young and had a snake like tongue which was licking off the membrane that had in cased it. It looked at her and Lizzie saw that it had gold eyes.
The new born blew smoke from its nostrils that sparkled strangely and started to walk off the table. Lizzie caught it with both hands and held it up to her eyes. Suddenly she felt extreme pain and bit her lip to stop herself from screaming. The pain slowly subsided and she saw that on both her palms was a white, glowing scar.
She felt something touch her mind and looked down at the dragon on the table. Hello, she said in her mind for she felt that that was the way. In return she felt hunger and curiosity. Wait here. I'll get you some food, she said to the dragon and then turned to Aleta saying, "keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't get harmed." Aleta sang a note of reassurance in reply. It was obvious that she was curious about the little dragon as well.
Lizzie went into the kitchen and grabbed some strips of meat, cutting it up into little bits. Then, she heated up some milk and carried it back to her room. The small dragon and Aleta looked up when they saw her come into the room. Lizzie set the food down on the small table by the white new born.
She picked up the dragon and placed it in her lap, then fed the dragon the meat, one by one. She then put down the dragon to let it drink the milk, which it did in a minute flat.
Now, she thought, what to call you. The dragon looked up at her in interest.
How about…Aila? She asked.
The dragon sent an approval. Right Aila it is the, Lizzie confirmed
Lizzie.
Lizzie heard a female voice in her mind. You said your first word! My name! Now how about that, she thought in amazement.
Lizzie picked up the dragon again and cradled her in her arms. The dragon purred in content and promptly fell asleep. That's what I should be doing, she thought as she lay down in her bed.
Goodnight little one, Lizzie said to the dragon.
As she began to fall asleep she heard a faint voice saying:
Goodnight Lizzie dear heart…
