Dragon Spire

chapter four

I find myself standing on hill. Where I do not know and strangely enough, that doesn't bother me. It is dark and thunder and lightning are all about me, but it's not raining. I am looking out at another hill but besides that there is nothing. Just green fields as far as I can see in all directions. I turn my attention back to the hill across from me. There are two figures standing on the hill. They are far away, but I can somehow sense that they are watching me. I hear some one call my name softly. I know that it was one of the figures calling me. I don't stop to question how I could possibly hear them I start to run towards them. I barely even take the time to notice that instead of running down the hill I just keep going strait towards them. I am flying. I look at my arms and am startled, but just for a second. My arms have turned into large scaly wings. Only after a second or two I turn my attention back to the all important task of getting to those two figures. As I draw nearer I notice that one is a woman and the other is a man. As I begin to be able to see exactly what they look like I am startled again.

This time I am really confused and sort of scared. My wings which I hadn't noticed flapping before, stop moving. I begin to fall. I quickly resume flapping, trying to process what I am seeing. The woman looks like an exact older version of me. The man also resembles me in certain ways. I also see another person whom I had not noticed before. There is a young boy, about five years old standing behind the man, peeking out at me. He is the perfect mixture between the two.There is no question that they are his parents. He has his dad's blond hair and his mom's green eyes. My eyes. I know somewhere deep inside me that I have finally found my family.

As I continue to draw nearer the wind starts to pick up. By the time that I'm close enough to land on the hill the wind is so strong that I find that I can not move forward at all. I try flapping even harder, but the wind picks up even more. Now I am slowly moving backwards. The trio standing on the hill looks almost completely unaffected. Just looking at them you would think that there was a very light breeze playing with the woman's long dark brown hair and the little boy's slightly wavy blond hair. Desperation sets in. Now that I've found them I cannot loose them. I am slipping away. Both mentally and physically. I can still see their faces. They look sad. Regretful. Black fuzziness creeps into the edges my my vision again. In despair I stop moving my wings and begin to drop out of the air. All the while the border of black is thickening, blocking my vision. Just before I hit the ground the black completely obstructs my sight. Everything is black. Now I am scared. I do not know where I am. I do not know what is real.

Sorry that this is soooo short. It has been awhile since I've uploaded, plus I thought that it was appropriate to upload here.

It is REALLY REALLY REALLY frustrating how no one is commenting. I know at least some people are reading this, so please comment. It really doesn't take that long.
