A Dragon's Revenge:Avdimi and the Fusion of the Elements(Book 2)

Chapter 10:A Dream

I bolted up startled and screamed,I felt sweat dripping down with my face,I looked again and saw no burning forest,no friends that left me and (thankfully) no grinning Avdimi,relaxed a bit I sighed and lied down again,it was dusk and I saw the last bits of the sun setting.

What kind of dream (or should I say nightmare) was that?Some kind of prediction?Or was it just my overactive imagination.It bugged me how realistic it was like it was going to bug me.I lied down staring at the sky wondering about that strange dream.I knew I woudn't sleep anyway so I sat by the lake and played with the water blankly.

I was picturing everything that happened in my mind,my reaction when they left,the smell of smoke,Avdimi's jaws locking into me.I became anxious of what would happen,what if it would really happen,maybe they would leave me,maybe the forest wil be set ablaze what if I get eaten by Avdimi.And if I'm really pushing it,what if Kaida really does like me?

There were too many 'what if's' for me.

"What's wrong?"A voice said behind me.

"Nothing"I muttered.

I always wondered how she could sneak up on me so easily.

"It's definitely not nothing"Kaida said putting her hand on my shoulder.

"Why are you always worried about me,I mean I appreciate it but it gets annoying"I said getting irritated.

"Because,I care about you Artemis"she said in a serious tone.

I stopped moving,and stared at her in disbelief,her expression was serious so I knew she wasn't joking

Well that's one 'what if' cleared I thought sarcastically.

"Tell me what's wrong"Kaida said calmly.

"If i'd tell you you'd think I was pathetic"I said,I mean I was this worked up,over a dream.

"I won't I swear"Kaida said

"I had a dream"I muttered.

Then I began to explain what I dreamed about,I included the part where Avdimi told me about her feelings for me.When I finished I waited for her reaction.

"That explains a lot"she said blandly.

"What?"I said caught unaware,that was not the reaction I expected.

"Nobody slept,it was all good for a while and we shut our eyes but you kept moving around rolling over and whimpering,Ruby and Scepthis coudn't take it anymore,so they flew to the other side of the lake and slept there,Hunter flew and slept in the tree while I was forced to stay with you,when you finally shut up I shut my eyes but I realzed you were so here we are now"she said.

"Oh,sorry"I said sheepishly.

"Anyways were about to leave Ruby said that we leave when the moon rises,their probably about to here so come on"Kaida said.

Standing up and walking over to where she slept and pavked her stuff,I stood up and looked over at her and grinned.I found here throwing little stones at Hunter who was still sleeping.She eventually hit him and made him fall landing on his face,he stood up and glared at Kaida for a few seconds,then he shook the dust off hos body and went to sit down.

I felt a shadow above me and I looked up then I was met by talons and was carried into the air,scared I screamed

"Let me go!!!"I shouted as I was being lifted higher and higher.

"If you say so"a voice said mischieviously,then I dropped I must have been in cloud level and I was dropping,fast...

When the ground was near I shut my eyes,then I felt like I landed on something I looked up and I saw a red dragon flying into the air.I heard Ruby laugh at my fright.

"Is this some sort of cruel joke!?I could've died!?"I shouted at her as she was flying steadily.

"Yes,me and Scepthis planned this,it's a little revenge for keeping us up"she said gleefully.

"I hate you"I said,glaring at her.

"Careful,i'm the one who saved your life,remeber,I can drop you again"she said.

"You won't I know you"I said.

"Never underistamate my character"she said and she began to spin upwards,then when she reached the clouds she flipped upside down and I began to fall again,I shouted again as I was falling,again.

(Ruby's point of view)

"Shoudn't you catch him?"Scepthis asked.

"He deserved it"I said stubbornly.

"Okay I'll do it"Scepthis said.

And he dived almost catching up to him but then another figure caught him and Scepthis slowed down and looked confused.Worried,I dived and caught up to him

"Who was that?"I asked.

"Avdimi"he said.

(Artemis' point of view)

I landed on something again I opened my eyes and began to shout.

"Put me down Ruby"I said.

"I'm not Ruby,don't you recognize me?"It asked.

That wasn't Ruby's voice nor was it Scepthis,then I froze there was only one other dragon...

Avdimi...
