She kept squeezing me until she finally heard me gagging for oxygen. She let go and stepped back to give me some space.
"Sorry, sometimes i get too excited." she gave me a huge gleaming grin.
"Um, its- ok." i wobbled on my feet, feeling dizzy from the hug of death.
"Stelly, we got the good stuff today!" lorneah waved her hands in the air dramatically.
"What did you guys catch while I was gone?" stellette asked.
What were they talking about? Hopefully it wasn't more crazy children with superhuman strength.
"We got a lot of stuff, like eight baskets of salmon, two barrels of cod, oh! And three crates of mackerel!" oh, so they were talking about fish! And that sounded like a lot of it.
"Good! Now we have a surplus of fish for the rest! Do we have anymore dragon nip though?" she asked as if filling in reports.
"We only have two pouches left stelly, should we get some more later today?" lorneah replied.
"Maybe when the sun is high, I think I saw a wild flightmare by my cave." stellette informed her.
"Oh no. that was just max!" lorneah screeched.
"Uh, who's max?" I asked with caution.
The roar of a flightmare answered my question.
The huge, light creature came from the highest skies and soared down, landing gracefully on the beach, then turned into a girl with short, crimson black hair, and and a leather top with light blue hawk feathers coming out of the shoulders. She came towards us and stared at me, her eyes scrolling on me.
"Who's this chica?" she asked deeply.
"Max, this is minnia, i brought her here from the other side." stellette informed.
"Oh, city girl, eh? It's ok, you be like us in about two weeks time." she glared at me with a smirk.
I walked towards stellette, the only real person I felt safe with here.
"Alright guys, we should show her around the island, but first, we need to eat." stellette said.
I wasn't for sure if we were eating the fish raw or cooked, either way I would find out soon enough. She took us to a huge, towering rock that looked down us in its massive size. Then she strolled to the entrance and knocked on the rock with a strange toon. Then a tiny sliver of rock suddenly slid to the side to show the dark blue eyes hiding behind.
"Password please." the voice mumbled.
"Cobblestone" stellette quickly spat out.
The rock suddenly opened out of nowhere, making a doorway for us to pass through. We walked inside for us to find many dragons, cages, and barrels.
"What is this place?" i wondered out loud.
"This is our main base, it's where we keep our food, dragons, weapons, ect." stellette said
"Ok- but, why do you have so many dragons?" I asked
"They help us in battle." stellette responded.
She walked us past the dragons and to the left to take us into a room with a table, stools, and a huge homemade oven.(no it's not electric, it's one of those ovens with actual fire inside.)
"Let me guess, kitchen?" I guessed.
"You got it pal!" lorneah laughed as she hive fived me without myself knowing.
"Now where is he?" I heard stellette whisper.
Then came a loud crash by the oven, causing each one of us to look in the direction of the sound. The boy stood up, awkwardly smiling at the mess he had made.
"Uh, sorry- i was having a fight with the pans again, hard to get to the ladles when the pots are on top." he joked.
"Nice joke calem!" she ran over and gave him a hug. And somehow survived it;
"Wait, did you guys find a dravian?" calem asked. I was starting to get tired of being introduced multiple times.
"This is our new friend minnia! She's just a human, cal." lorneah remarked with enthusiasm.
"Why would you bring a human here stellette?" calem asked again.
"She's going to learn how to train, ride, and befriend dragons." wait- i was going to what?
"I'm sorry did I hear you correctly?" i wondered out loud again.
"Yes, you're going to become a rider." she said.
Then lorneah, max, and calem gave stellette a confused yet surprised stare.
"Stellette are you crazy!?" calem yelled
"There hasn't been a rider in over 200 years!" lorneah screeched.
I was so lost in this conversation. Riders? 200 years? What the heck was going on?
"Uh, guys, anyone willing to let me know anything about the history of riders, and why I might become one." I asked.
They all looked at each other, then looked back at me.
"Follow me." max ordered.
I followed max beyond the kitchen and stopped at a small, black hole in the ground.
"You go first." max said.
"Wait, you mean through the hole?" I wondered
"No, minnia, inside of my mouth- yes through the hole!" she yelled.
I quickly crawled through the hole, hoping to succeed in max's orders. As I got deeper into the hole, the light and the size of the hole grew, in went from hole, to tunnel, to cave. And boy was it beautiful on the inside.
There were candles hanging above us from the ceiling,being held by strings of wire. And as I walked around in awe, I noticed carvings that were drawn into the walls of the cave.
"What is this place?" i finally asked.
"This is the secret room we found when we first came here." max replied.
I walked to the wall and touched one of the carvings: six young children, looking around my age, on dragons!
"What do these carvings mean?" I wondered.
"These carving tell the story of the six riders, the only ones who believed that the dragon's heart was loving. They fought for them, cared for them, and even flew on them. But one day, as they were getting ready for a flight, a vicious and unknown creature rained upon their terrain, and demolished their home, dragons, and themselves." these carvings really did tell a story.
"There's more." max continued.
"According to these carvings, 200 years after this event, the creature would awaken from it's slumber and destroy anything that comes in it's path. But it has been said in these carvings, that one heart as pure as the blazing sun, would destroy this impeccable monster." i stood there, staring into the eyes of the carvings, finally realizing their true identity. But i also had questions now. Who was the one with the pure heart? And what would become of this creature?
"When is this event supposed to take place?" I asked with determination.
"Says here that it will be coming in about five months time." max answered.
"Where do you keep your weapons?" I asked.
"Down by the forest, why?" she remarked.
"I think we need to be prepared." i responded with a grin
