I awoke with a a splitting headache. I looked outside. The sky was dark and the stars shown  brightly over the hospital. ~What a beautiful sight...~ I sighed to myself. I looked around the small hospital room. The lights were off and snores from other patients were heard. I sniffed my nose. The stench of sterilization filled my nose. I wanted to puke. I tried to move my legs. Large casts incased them. No movement there. I tried my arms. Dark red bandages covered my arms. I felt faint.

"Too much blood!" I yelled.

Joey threw his head up quickly snapping out of his light sleep. "Where's the fire?!"

I let out a puff of flames. "right here.... but how long have I been out?"

He just laughed. "Two weeks...for a week all you could hear were loud dragon snores from down the hall."


My eyes widened. "Two weeks?!"

Joey nodded. "Your parents came in here..."

"FUCK!." They had got back from their trip.

"They took it surprisingly well... Your father made some comment about him still being able to kick your ass...and your mum's just like and quote, "Holy shit he's bigger than before!" end quote" he laughed.


A nurse walked in and checked my IV levels and my charts. She unwrapped my bandages and placed fresh white ones over the almost closed wounds. I closed my eyes and relaxed until everything was changed. I flexed my wings. No more pain. My arms and legs were healed and blood returned to my dexterities. ~I can move again...~ I thought.

~Good,~ said Draks, ~ It wasssss a long two weekssss and that girl with the brown hair wasssss very annoying... checking out every part of your body~ I felt his soul shudder and my face lit up.

~C'mon all she could have done was just look at me right?~ I was nervous for his answer.

~ No Gordon.... I mean touching your ssssscalessss and your fur and everything!~

I almost puked right there. Joey jumped up and threw a bucket at me. The taste of the bile had risen into my mouth. That made everything worse.  If you haven't heard a dragon hurl before it's like a car hitting the breaks really quickly followed by a hollow roar and a sploosh. I shook my head from the after shock.

Wiping my mouth I calmly looked at Jamie. "She looked at me naked?"

He laughed. "Dude you're just scales and fur nothing there at all!"

That just means someone doesn't know their dragon anatomy. I sighed with relief. Yet I still felt embarrassed.



A few days later I was checked out of the hospital and managed to make it half way home in one piece. Heather, and Tensa were stalking me. And the smell of dragons kept arising in the air. So far I was the only dragon in all of our hometown and yet....this smell brought trouble.

I looked to the sky and saw birds flying towards our direction.

~Birds have already migrated...those must be dragons.~ Draks said in my head.

"You're right Darks..." I took to the skies and readied for an Ariel combat.

A steadied my wing beats and waited. An hour later two large dragons, one dark sapphire blue the other ruby red came at me with such great speed I was scared.

They stopped mid tracks and stared me down. "Can I help you?" I asked.

The blue one stepped forward. "yessssss." she said.

Have you ever smelt a dragon in heat? It's almost like a perfume.

"We hear you are the only dragon in the next 50 km sssssssso we came to mate."

Shocked I dropped towards the ground. "It's alright ladies " I felt very awkward now.

"You don't undersssstand the circumssssstancesssss" the red one said.

"A dragon not mated in a day will kill the male they found."

My eyes widened. "oh shit..."


Then both fell onto their backs laughing like hell. "He fell for it!!!!!" they shouted.

"Excuse me?" I looked at them stunned.

The sapphire one stopped laughing first. "We were sssssent to guide newly transssformed dargonsss through their firssst daysss with the dragon in the mind thing."



My face was red. "Well... Draks and I have cleared things up...so thanks but...not needed..."

I backed away slowly. The red one came closer. "So since your in control...wanna have fun tonight?"
she winked at me and I bolted it for home.

"He's alright for a dragon... sensible to say the least." They both mimicked each other.
