Dylan the Dragon: The Movie Novelization

Chapter 4

Friday.
Dylan was going to go to Neath Market today, he didn't wake up for quite a while. He had a long and peaceful dream of him and his brother somehow meeting each other again, and when it came to dreams with Dylan, usually they were predicting the future. He woke up very tired, almost sleep deprived. He got out of bed and tried to fly around Joseph to wake him up. He wouldn't budge, so Dylan tried to jump on him to get him to wake up. When Joseph finally opened his eyes, he wondered what was going on and he tried to get Dylan off of his face, but Dylan kind of forgot what he was doing and was quickly flung off. By then Joseph remembered that they were going to Neath and so they got ready.

Once they were ready they went downstairs for breakfast and got in the car. They were going to go into the actual market today. Dylan didn't know what they were going to do exactly, but he was excited.

When they got to the actual market, the smell of pork and many more food smells filled the building. But Joseph knew where he was going to go. The Wales stall was packed with so many things, there were things from rugby balls, bucket hats, scarves, and even Dragon plush pets. They were all waiting to be sold, but one stuck out from all. He was prancing around doing god knows what, and he then did a twirl in the air, landing on his nose. He was ecstatic to see Dylan, for an odd reason. "Hey Joseph, let me see that one for a sec." He let Dylan off of his shoulder and inside the stall, "Hey Dylan, long time no see!" The shopkeeper exclaimed. "Hi Barry." Dylan replied, "It's been a long time, say hi to Joseph!" After that Barry said hi to Joseph and they had a talk. "Hey, do you know why this one is so ecstatic, Barry?" Joseph asked. "That's Dylan's brother, Davidd. Dylan, did you not recognize him?" Dylan took one look at him. Slowly he began to realise who he was looking at.

"Davidd!" Dylan exclaimed. "It's really you! I've been wanting to find you ever since we came on holiday!" Davidd looked confused.
"Who is we?"
"We, me and my owner/step brother, Joseph!" Dylan replied, "He moved abroad and got me after coming back home on holiday. He decided that I could come with him on holiday! And now I've found you!" Davidd looked ecstatic after that. He had been living in the Neath Market ever since March 2023, and now he and Dylan were reunited. "Hey Dav, I was wondering if you wanted to come with us, to live with us abroad!" Dylan was getting too excited, but he didn't seem very crazy when Davidd replied with a bold 'yes'. Both of them got very excited, until Barry said, "That'll be 15 quid, thanks." The shopkeeper smirked while saying it. Dylan checked Joseph's hoodie pocket, 10 Quid was in it, but Joseph used his alternative card. Once it was accepted they left the Neath Market to go back to the house. They were going to stay in their outdoor clothes for a few reasons:

It was raining outside, who wouldn't wear them if it triggered the cold on the inside?
They preferred to, they just wanted to with no explanation.
What was the point of changing back into your pyjamas when you were going to play Rugby in an hour?
They were going to go to the Harvester for a meal later on.

Once It came time to have a toss with the Rugby ball, Dylan Davidd and Joseph looked outside to see if it was still raining. The answer to that was no, but it was quite windy anyway. They got the rugby ball from the garden so that they could go down to the field. Dylan picked up the rugby ball and walked to the front door so that they could leave. Dylan kicked it up for him to catch once it got down, he surprisingly caught it. Davidd got hold of the ball and passed it to Joseph. Once they got to the field they played random Rugby games like:

Touch Rugby (Just so that Davidd and Dylan didn't get squashed.
Rugby Netball
Just a bit of passing so that they could train up for the big part!
Contact Rugby!
And after that a bit of training with contact drills.

For the most part the contact rugby was fine, but at other times:

Yep, Dylan and Davidd had a tactical advantage when it came to Rugby Tackling. They could just fly up from the way that Joseph was tackling. So after Joseph had a little mud bath they left to get ready for the Harvester. Joseph had to have a big shower to get all of that mud off of his face, by then he looked like some sort of mud troll.

Once Joseph got all of the sticky mud and sticks out of his hair, he wiped his face to get all of the mud off. Once all of the mud was off, he put on some different clothes so that he was fully ready. His new hoodie looked much better, it gleamed in the light of the night. Dylan was ready and put a hoodie on him, he looked ready for a good meal from the Harvester. Davidd and Dylan had some mini clothes for dragons made by the Neath stall. Davidd had a whole suitcase filled with hoodies, jumpers and tops. Davidd thought they had done it as an act of good luck so that he could do well when he moved abroad with them. It was a big change sitting in a stall where they sold dragon stuffed animals as pets. And that was something else that the twins thought about too much. They didn't understand how they were sewed and stuffed with cotton by people in a factory, and came to life once they reached the Neath stall. It was a big question to ponder, but there was no time, they had to get downstairs as quickly as they could before the family left without them! Joseph rushed down the stairs, dragging Dylan and Davidd by the scruff until they would budge.

Once they got downstairs, they opened the living room door, where they were waiting on the three. Joseph chuckled in fear, same with Dylan, but Davidd was new, he didn't understand what was happening and said: "How is everybody doing this evening?"
They went to the car.
Dylan sat in the middle with Davidd while Joseph and his brother sat on the other seats at the back. Their parents were at the front, starting up the engine. Their grandparents drove in the other car, they were just about starting their engine up, too. Once they took off, Davidd got excited. This was the first time he was going somewhere with his twin brother and his step-family. Joseph lifted them up onto his shoulders, and while listening to a football match they took a sharp turn. SCREECH! The car took a left turn, but it was so bumpy that Dylan and Davidd fell off of Joseph's shoulders. Once they got to the Harvester, they opened up the doors and everyone was silent, staring at Dylan and Davidd. All was silent as a grasshopper, until:
"Table for 9, please!" Dylan yelled.
Once the waitress showed them their table, they sat down and ordered the refillable drinks. Dylan and Davidd were given small portions to fit their size. Once they got the salad bowls, they went up to the salad bar to get their starters. It started with Dylan and Davidd going up with Joseph so that he could show them what it worked like. "Okay, here's the salad bar, where you can fill up on starters. It's mostly vegetables, red devil sauce and the healthiest food, but there is the occasion of pesto and tomato pasta." Dylan filled up on pasta, some red-devil sauce and some lettuce. Davidd hogged all of the lettuce, a roll of bread and some tomatoes. They all went back to eat their food while the others went up to get starters. When the waitress came up to sort the main meals, Joseph ordered the usual: "Can I please have the Chicken goujons and chips?" Davidd ordered the same while Dylan had a mini-cheeseburger. They waited around for their food to come by talking about the holiday. The conversation was a bit one-sided but it went like this:

"So how's the holiday so far, guys?" Joseph asked.
"It's pretty nice." Dylan replied.
"I really like it, I'm so glad that I can finally see you again, Dylan." Davidd chirped in very happily. Davidd looked at the time, it was 8:37. By the time that the food came, they were all starving for it and they had practically chomped it after a couple of minutes. But they weren't done, all of them ordered a Brownie sundae to see if they could get it finished in 5 minutes.

The food came. PLONK! Is the sound the sundae glasses made when they slipped onto the table. Fear was racing through their minds as they stared at the large glasses. What? How are we supposed to eat this in 5 minutes? Davidd thought, This is gonna be a challenge, Dylan thought, Piece of cake! No problem. Thought Joseph as he took the spoon and started eating. It was on, the crowd in the restaurant watched as Joseph raced past the brownie goodness, He was finished in half of the time he was given. But by then Dylan had only got his first spoonful through the hatch. He had to race through it to get it finished in two and a half minutes. But as he reached for his second spoonful, he thought about how he could chomp through it in a short time by diving into the glass. He got his wings ready, and the electricity of the crowd stopped, replaced with confused faces and noises. Dylan flew up and into the ice cream glass.

Once Davidd did the same as him, they were finished a few seconds before time. The clock ticked, Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock. TIME! Everyone cheered and screamed like nobody was watching! They had done it!

They were given a cash prize in return and they went back home and went to sleep.
