Description
I was awoken vary rudely by my mother dropping snow on my face telling me to get up and get my chores done. Another day of tormenting I said NOW Elimist! I heard my mother scream. I got up and and went out side into snow that was up to my Knees looking back at our log cabin I go into the barn to feed the animals and then I went back inside to eat the small meal my mother gave me consisting of bread and water. Getting my knife and some wood from the woodpile I began doing a self taught trade woodcarving when papa was still alive he used to do it to making utensils I mainly carve animals and or other creatures. Today I was carving some thing from story's dad always tells to lighten the mood a dragon halfway through my carving my mom looks up and says while grabbing my carving and throwing into the fire not that crap again your father is dead and his story's with him now clean that up pointing to the shavings and get more pine from the mountain then I want you to seal the hole in the wall the blasted winter air is coming thru not fantasizing if I see you daydreaming I'm going to break out the whip because you're 13 now not 7 so get to work! she yelled. Crying a bit I clean up the shavings and grab the axe and head up the mountain. On the mountain I chop branches off the trees and starting a pile my hands were getting blisters from swinging the axe when I was getting the last branch the axe slipped from my grasp and flew down the mountain. Then I yelled out dammit very loudly which echoed of the mountain (what a fool am i) I thought as the mountain began to vibrate causing a avalanche looking for shelter I spied the cave that I was told not to go into do or die I said as I ran for it barley making it when the wall of snow rumbled past trapping me inside.
Inside the cave it was very weird there were these white clear crystals which glowed faintly like they were possessed the cave didn't go very far in but the roof was high above my head then it opened into a spacious chamber with crystals all over the place looking at my hands I took off my leather gloves to inspect my bleeding hands it was warm in the cave at least that is when I spied the whitish blue liquid which was also glowing and a tempted to clean the blood off of my hands however when I got one foot away from the liquid it jumped at me hitting my hands. Screaming with fright I tried to wipe it off me only to have it stick where ever it touched my body. The other part of the liquid was slowly coming towards me as if it was alive glowing wildly. Running away from it wasn't helping it followed me every where I went like a dog getting closer and closer than it caught me when I tripped and fell over a stone I was fighting to get free even though I was tired and scared for my life (I was going to die by a ball of slime! What a way to go) I thought. I couldn't breath and the ball of slime was forming a oval shell around my body while turning it into jelly like substance then I passed out....... I woke up in complete darkness and silence. I could feel slime covering my body and t t tail?? I was freaked out by this. Holding it in my hands which then I had a double take hands?? What Isss going on I stammered slurring my s. What happened to my hands I said frightened they didn't feel like hands they were hard and scaly like my tail with sharp talons. Then I touched my body and found it was hard and scaly. Shocked I then I touched the shell like covering surrounding me and my talons went through it making a cracking sound then A large split appeared in the shell letting in a little light shine in blinding me. When my eyes adjusted I made more cracks in the shell until the top of it came completely off now able to see myself from the glow of the crystals my body was covered completely in white scales and my face was that of a lizards and what really shook me was that I had wings. Wingsss I stammered easily moving them more into view I'm a dragon?!! How??
I got to the mouth of the cave only to find a completely different world than when I left it what trees there were were covered in leafs and grass covered the landscape I saw the farm a house and a barn just like before with the animals in the pasture (how long was I in that egg)I thought looking back in the cave at it well who cares I'm free now I can go home when I got there I saw my mother in her garden and I went over to her she saw me coming and fright filled her eyes and she ran into the house locking the door so I went to the animals and they ran from me too I can't be that scary I said as I looked into the water troff I looked awesome a baby dragon with scales that stood up forming sharp Ridges instead of horns these ridges went down my back and there was even some on the end of my tail. Done looking at myself I started drinking the water stopping myself after the second swallow (drinking the animals water what next eating their food?) I thought in my head stepping back just then my mother came out of the house and grabbed the pitchfork and ran while thrusting it at me telling me to get off her farm and I new she meant it I wasn't beat on every day for nothing. And I rather not have a pitchfork shoved into my hide so I ran and she chased me off the farm. I ran down the road that went to town and found some people on the road bringing their harvest into town upon seeing me they abandoned the wagon yelling gibberish as they ran away. leaving the wagon alone I continued down the roads to town when I got to town I got down on all fours which was a little easer it also made me look smaller so sticking to the shadows I went down the ally to the center of town when in the shadows it was easer not to be seen and this was also a town by the Atlantic ocean so it smelled like salt. Where there'ss water there'ss fissh I said because I was Starving. I found the fish stall close to the ocean and while he was busy I snuck under the stall to eat fish. Eating meat only was hard there were a lot of bones In these fish but soon I ate my fill and left while he was busy looking the other way. Back in the shadow of a ally way I watched the ocean sparkle as the sun slowly went down. finding a place to sleep that was out of the way I made a dirt bed and slept.
I woke up the next day refreshed but hungry so I went to look for some food while there weren't many people. I found a fruit tree that looked like the lower layers have been picked but no one picked the top so that is where I went not aware that I was being watched. While I was feasting on the apples a boy came outside and looked at me in aw seeing the boy I climbed down the tree and slowly went up to him he was probably 10 years old. You aren't afraid? I asked curiously in my snakelike voice this seemed to make him jump back but he managed to squeak out the word no. soundsss like you're afraid I said making him step back. At that moment a guard saw me and rose an alarm coming at me with a sword in his hands and the only thing I thought to do was climb the apple tree again hiding in the branches. The boy's mother came out of the house and shielded her son from my view asking what was wrong there's a large white lizard in your tree the guard said and was soon joined by others. One had a spear in which he tried to poke me with making me hiss at him sounds nasty said the guard then he jabbed me hard in the stomach making me yowl in pain got it he said satisfied. Then I roared loudly at him making him jump back in fright angrily he try's to jab me again but I dodged the blade and went to the top of the tree and looked down at them. A crowd had gathered and we're all looking at me wide eyed. One of them called me a demon and they all started throwing rocks at me. An archer leveled a bow at me and I new I was doomed getting in the tree again I tried to hide my self from view it it was too late the arrow struck my scales going through my wing making me roar in pain. As my blue blood oozed from the tear in my wing it started dripping down on the spearman the arrow was imbedded in my scales but didn't go though them. Scared and hoping my wings would work I freed the arrow and jumped out of the tree opening my wings soaring away landing in the woods.
Finding a tree with large leaves I picked three of them then I searched for a flat rock and ground one of them into a paste and spread it on the other two. Then I repositioned the tear in the webbing of my wings and pasted the two leaves on both sides of the tear to keep it flat and then fell a sleep. Waking up the next day I check my wing to find it healed all that remains is a thin jagged scar. (Wow I heal fast) I thought as I went to look for food. Finding a wild cherries I gather a lot and quickly eat most of them sense they were small. Then I smelled humans nearby following the sent I find a bunch of Indians gathering food in baskets I'm then poked from behind as an Indian finds me. I turn around and see the Indian pointing a bow at me (not good) I thought as I start to back up making the others look at me. Dropping the rest of the cherries I picked I am then grabbed, and a leather strap is put around my mussel, and I am then carried to their camp and given to their chief. Tied up on the ground I start to whimper and struggle against my bindings the Indians start talking in a language that I didn't know. Terrified I say as best I could against the leather strap don't eat me! which shut them up. The chief in moderately good English says in a shocked voice what?! Pleassse don't eat me I said again still terrified. It can speak? said the Indian that brought me here Yesss I can ssspeak and I don't want to be eaten I'm ssstill too young to die. Unbinding me he said sorry we thought you were an animal. I then opened my wings a bit to relive some pain from the binding and said that I was a dragon not a animal. Dragon?? The chief said confused. Yesss a mythical creature that can breathe fire and fly I said as I breathed a little smoke while trying to breath fire this caught there interest. I tried again to make some fire but only smoke came out I may ssstill be too young though I said as went to the tent opening and looked out. I saw some children playing with what looked like a piece of an animal blown up into a ball the size of a water melon. They were throwing it around keeping it in the air the chief opened the flap and looked outside. The children seeing him step out stopped there game and waved then they saw me coming up to them. Frightened they hid behind what looked to be the oldest in the group. Seeing this I stopped and laid down on the ground and waited but still looking at them. They were talking in that language I didn't understand but soon two of them came over too me slowly and I let them touch my scales and wings.
Earning the tribes trust took some time learning there language took longer. They didn't view me as an animal though just a talking creature. I lived with them for a very long time migrating with them when the English humans pushed us out. I was getting older and bigger every year I helped them plow there fields most because of my strength I stopped growing when I was just a bit bigger than their horses. I woke up one day to children playing on me it has been 26 years since I hatch from the egg I got up carrying the children with me into the forest to find food finding a apple tree I sat down to eat. The children were climbing the tree now picking apples and every once in a while throwing one too me and laughing when I caught it. Then we went back to the village I went to the fire circle and set some logs on fire with my breath like I do everyday the men of the village that went out hunting that morning came back hauling with them a deer skinning the deer they cut off a good sized chunk and gave it to me which I ate happily while they put some of it in a stew pot for that day's meal the rest was dried. I then I took the skin to the women to be tanned. It was just my everyday chores much better than what my mother had me do everyday. I was then asked to help weed the field they put baskets on my back and had me walk with them while they filled them with weeds they do this about every few days to keep the weeds back then I dumped the weeds in a pile burning them. A few hours later I hear a loud bang reverberating through the air in the distance startled by this I run off in the Direction of the noise accompanied by a few people. Staying hidden we come across a few English men in the forest chopping down trees settlers I growl in their language and we head back to the village. We warn the chief of the settlers and I knew what was going to happen next. It's my turn to go hunting for the midday meal so I spread my wings and flew away with a passenger aboard my back. He was learning to hunt so he watches me as I track prey seeing two boars rolling in the mud below I start to circle the boy is happy with my choice shaking with excitement he bring out his bow an knocks an arrow as I swoop down. I pounce on one boar killing it while the boy shoots the second one through the skull grabbing them both in my talons I take off flying again toward the village. Roasted pig I say as I land the boy practically flys off to retrieve his arrow and the men then take the pigs to the fire to prepare them to be roasted. I go to the pigs and slowly heat them up by rotating them over flames using my smooth carved sticks I carved with my claws which I use to carve instead of a knife. When they are done we ate them with fresh corn bread the women made though I couldn't eat any I take a nap afterwards by the trees out of the way. I'm awoken by leather being put over my mussel I jerk awake only to find that my legs and my wings were bound by strong ropes. Soon there were deafening bangs lots of my friends were being killed before my eyes and I couldn't help them. Struggling and growling and hissing at any white man that came up to me I tried to get free. My friends were fighting back but were soon killed until all that was left was me with tears in my eyes I heard one of the men speak what about that thing? Bring it along I heard someone say those redskins tamed it some how then in a much louder voice he said alright men get all the furs and anything you find that is useful get the horses and let's get out of here. The man came up to me along with four others. Growling as they came close I watched as they tied a rope around me and a couple horses and dragged me into a cart. Then they tore down the tepees and piled the furs on wagons and I was soon headed down the a path and into the woods what do we have here? said someone a large lizard was his answer. Found it with those red skins their children were playing on it so they tamed it somehow. I didn't listen to them anymore because I was soon fast asleep. I woke up in the cart still tied up it was morning and the men were boasting about their prize they had gained. I didn't see the skins or the horses they took from the Indians so they probably sold them. Lifting my head up I saw some of them step back from me. Purity ain't she he said (I'm a boy moron) I said in my head continuing he said found her with the red skins as like a pet I like these scales are beautiful they may be worth something. You shire you can control it one asked shire he said I just have to show it who's boss. (Go ahead make my day) I thought while growling. Unhitching the back of the wagon he got in and undid the ropes around my legs and grabbed the rope that was wound around my head and lead me out of the cart I was practically free but I played around with him for a bit longer. I then started to step backwards pulling him with me but giving me a tug he tied me to the fence. People started coming out of the houses around me with wide eyes next he released my wings grateful for that I spread them out making people look at me in aw. Then I did it reaching up I cut the harness that was holding the mussel on and pulled away. Totally free now I roared as loud as a could at my captors sending them reeling back then I took to the sky. Landing on the building I looked below me to find them pointing long sticks a me followed by defining bang then metal balls bouncing off my scales feeling this I let loose a torrent of fire making everyone start to scream and run then I flew to where I turned into a dragon.
It was a long journey there having took five days of fast flying I made it. The farm house looked the same it has always had. Yet something was different I landed in the farmyard scaring the animals which there were a lot more of. The door on the house opened and out came a old man and woman upon seeing me the man grabbed his stick which shot things and pointed it at me and the woman was just standing there looking at me I don't want any trouble I said in my deep snakelike voice. Startled the man asked what do you want? I answered that I wanted to know where my mother wasss and that ssshe and I usssed to live here 26 yearsss a ago and that my name was Elimissst. The woman was crying now Elimist? she said you know me I asked even though sensing doubt in her voice my son was named Elimist but he was a human not whatever you are. Hearing this I spread my wings and she gasped dragon! I said I carved a dragon out of pine the lassst day you sssaw me and sssent me up the mountain to get more wood then an avalanche happened trapping me inssside the cave I ussed for ssshelter I then came out looking like Thisss. I then took off knowing that my mother was still alive I went to the cave in the mountain seeing this old cave with its glowing crystals I found where I hatched my egg no longer there and went to sleep.

I said I carved a dragon out of pine the lassst day you sssaw me and sssent me up the mountain to get more wood then an avalanche happened trapping me inssside the cave I ussed for ssshelter I then came out looking like Thisss. I then took off knowing that my mother was still alive I went to the cave in the mountain seeing this old cave with its glowing crystals I found where I hatched my egg no longer there and went to sleep.
