When I awoke I was back on the mountain with Peter's arms around me. "What happened?" I asked softly. "You fell off the mountain and I flew the chariot down to catch you. When I got to you, you were out cold. I thought I'd lost you Lexi." "You'll have to do better than that to get rid of me." I said, "Now let's go get a dragon!"
We ran up the hill to the dragon. When we finally got to him, I climbed back on to his back. I grabbed my knife and started stabbing. The dragon bucked and twisted, but I held on tight. I finally made my way to his neck. I saw a chink in his armor, so I grabbed my dagger with both hands and stabbed straight down. Time slowed down, I heard a loud riiip, and the dragon stopped moving. I sat there on his back, surrounded by his black blood. When I finally climbed of the dragon, Peter and Emma ran up and hugged me, but before they could say anything, a man I'm told was Hermes said Lord Zeus had requested our presence.
When we got to the throne room, we were greeted with applause from twelve twenty foot tall beings. I immediately recognized one of the women on the right as my mother. We had the same blonde hair, heart shaped face, and stormy gray eyes. Then Zeus said, "Emma Landry, Peter Johnson, and Alexa Cantwood we would all like to thank you for your valiant efforts in slaying the red dragon." Then, my mother said, "And I would like to say I'm especially proud of my daughter, Alexa who killed the dragon with no training at all!" my mother said. After she was finished, I felt my cheeks turn red.
Later that evening, Peter and I were walking on the beach at camp. "You were amazing up there." He finally said. "Thanks, but really, it was nothing." I replied. "No, really, you were great." he said, and then he leaned forward and kissed me. We kissed for a few seconds and then I heard Emma, "Come on Alexa! It's almost lights out!" "I'm coming!" I yelled back. I turned to Peter, "Well, good night." I said. Then, I turned and ran toward my cabin, grinning like a fool.
