Full Of Surprises

The Savage Fortress (Tina)

We are walking to a henna tattoo shop. My friends and I. I see a large crack in the ground. It gets bigger and turns into a large hill. Am I seeing earth form? It can't be. No it's not. A spike shoots out of the cracked hill. It's a green spike. Then scales come out and the concrete rips into a million pieces. There is a dragon in front of me. It is looking in my direction with soft purple eyes, instead of breathing a harsh red fire at my face. No it's looking at me! It wants to say something... "My darling, I have a message to give you," it says. "You must go to a fortress, this fortress holds the key to-" --BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEERP - my alarm clock once again ruining my life! What fortress where?! Ugh. "Agh." Arthur says. "Morning Artwork," I say laughing. "Howdy Cowgirl," he says. We are corny. But I HAVE to get to that dream again. I can't re-fall-asleep, my body just doesn't work like that. If that dragon really wanted to tell me something, it will later tonight. But for now I'm making my morning trip to Galaxy Dollars. "Arty, I'm going to Starbucks. Adíos," I say. "Want something Elly?" I ask. I'm generous😋."A Mocha frap and maybe a 'rito from Chipotle, hun?" She says. "Sure," I groan. "Ba-Bye," I say and open the door. "Wait!" Elly yells. " Nope! I'm out. No more orders. Sorry bye," I say and shut the door. Yaay free at last. Might as well go to the spa after I drop off this food.
