I shrunk back as Yfandes drew herself up to her full height. The setting sun glinted off her bright green scales, giving them a fiery gleam. She rose her wings, snarling.
Sunfern backed up until she was hiding behind me the best she could. My throat felt dry all the sudden, I swallowed.
"Would it helped if I apologized?" I managed to squeak out. I squeezed my eyes shut and scrunched up my face as Yfandes let out an ear-piercing roar. It started out as a loud angry roar, then it faded into an anxious, upset growl.
I opened my eyes and straightened up. Yfandes was back on all fours, looking at me with the saddest expression reflecting in her eyes.
"I'm sorry..." I walked forward, wrapping my arms around her, hugging her. "I'm sorry I made you worry. I'm ok." She huffed softly, leaning into my hug.
"I can't promise I won't do it again though." She pulled away from me and glared at me, irritated. I giggled weakly. "Sorry in advance."
Yfandes let out one last huff before reached behind me to nuzzle Sunfern. Sunfern let out a purr. Yfandes turned and nudged me inside the cave. I willingly obeyed.

(somewhere deeper inside the cave)
A spiked tail slithered across the stone floor. Tiny sounding scratches echoed. Darkfeather stopped at the entrance of a sandy cave. Numerous gaps in the ceiling cast sunlight, focussed in certain spots.
She gazed at a golden dragon egg.
Then, turned around and slithered back to where she came.
Hey, so I've gotten requests to continue and update this story. So here's a chapter. Sorry if it's not great. But I will continue where I left off. Thanks for reminding me.
