words- Parseltongue

Taerel was the last to face his dragon he had seen how the others had done, Viktor had even lost points when he used the Conjunctivitis Curse on the poor dragon sending it into her own eggs smashing and killing several of the eggs, it was a sad loss to the dragon handlers as the dragons were very hard to bread as well

Fleur put her dragon to sleep which was very simple even to Taerel and so utterly boring if you asked him anyone one of them could of talked to the dragon and simply asked for the egg they knew the human language...or so he thought he sighed thinking about it all humans were a funny breed in itself

Cedric well he used his brain to be honest with you he turned a rock into a dog and had the dragon follow and try to eat it and he was able to go around and take the egg while the dragon was busy to be honest with you at least the eggs were safe

When all three came back he noticed that not one of the eggs were a normal dragon egg he noticed that they were golden and no dragon had golden eggs and he knew that for a fact as he helped the Leofaren and Zylphyra families as they closely work with dragons and Taerel had helped as well

When he was called into the arena everyone cheered for him more than they did for their own schools which he thought was very strange he wasn't even a part of any of these schools he was brought here well he was technically kidnapped to say the least and when he said he wanted to leave Dumbles wouldn't let him

He stood facing down the dragon but what they had called the Hungarian Horntail one of the most ferocious dragons around well he had seen and dealt with worse but if the wixen's say that then let them believe it

So he just stood there watching and waiting even after the canon went off to signal the start of the task, Taerel just looked at the dragon which made the dragon stop and wonder why he wasn't coming to her and her nest

Stay away from me and my eggs

I will not come any closer to you my dear I just wish that you hear me out

I will what do you want two legs?

My name is Taerel...

Do you mean Taerel Alaion Heikrana of the Elven Realm we have heard so much about you

My dear what do you know about me? He wondered what had been said about him as this was a complete first for him he hadn't even realised that he was now speaking Parseltongue to her making everyone in her arena go completely silent as many had never even heard the language before

You mean you don't know? us dragons speak highly of you as well as the other two families that help heal us when we need it

Oh do you mean the Leofaren and Zylphyra families I apprenticed under the two when I was but a babe about what... five hundred years ago I was bored you see and I went looking for something more to study and after looking I apprenticed under all the High Elf families within two hundred years I learnt everything that the families had to offer he started to walk closer to her

You have done very well for yourself, question do you know why the other two leggers have brought us here, our eggs shouldn't have been moved as well as my partner has to be worried sick that me and my babies have gone missing as well as three others

My dear..

Saphira... my name is Saphira you can call me Saphie if you like we each have names but none of them like to use them, the Chinese fireball is called Alapapa Ala for short, the Swedish Short Snout is called Chua and lastly the Welsh Green is called Belindo Lina as she likes to be called, we have all been taken away from our homes and our mates...with our children no less
