Nova woke up to voices. She blinked and tried to get up, but pain shot through her arm. She cried out, and fell back. A Rainwing dragonet with cloudy gray and pale blue scales looked at her with a worried expression. He looked about her age, 5. "Are you okay?" he asked in a soft voice. Nova said weakly, "I don't know," she continued "The last thing I remember is falling from 50 feet in the air. I heard screaming." She sighed, and asked "How bad is it?" He whispered, "You fractured a wing, and broke your arm. It's not as bad as you think." Nova relaxed, "Good." The sooner I heal, the sooner I can go home. She looked at the dragonet, and asked "So why are you here anyway? And how did you know what happened to me?" The dragonet shrugged and said, "My mother is a healer here, and she wanted to teach me. Also...that screaming you heard?" he laughed nervously "I might've shot a little drop of venom on their scales..." Nova blinked. Then she processed what he said, "You what?! But...but why?" The dragonet shrugged again, "I got in trouble with my father, who was able to help a little, but it was worth it. I've seen those 3 bully just about all the Rainwings in the rainforest. They deserved it." his scales had slowly started to turn red and black, but quickly turned to a light blue and green. Nova smiled, "Well thanks. By the way, I'm Nova, who are you?" The dragonet smiled back and said, "Nice to meet you Nova, I'm Leopard." Someone called, "Hey Leopard, come here for a second!" Leopard jumped. "Oh, I better go...maybe I'll see you when you're better?" Nova smiled, "Sure."
My writing always sounds weird when I introduce another character :(
