Dragon Adventures, (Book 1) Heather and Astrid's girl day

Page 2

Both girls began to tell the other about their trip; they shared laughs and stories about what had gone on in their life. "This is nice" Heather finally said after they rested on logs. "I agree" Astrid lounged back farther and gave a sigh of complete satisfaction. Both girls watched the sun go down. Something about the night was too calm as if something or someone was watching them. Both dragons perked up their heads in aggression. "Astrid, I think I heard something..." Heather started. "I think it's probably just the wind, or another dragon," Astrid said, still too comfortable to check it out. "You're probably right," Heather agreed. Both laid down on the grass to sleep.

It was definitely peaceful here. The dragons laid down next to them and they lounged for a while. Soon after it was maybe noon they heard something once more. "Do you think a dragon lives here?" Heather asked. "Hiccup's maps don't say anything about a dragon living on this island," Astrid replied. "Well maybe we can discover a new
