I awoke. My brain was a mess. The cave was a mess. What happened? I only saw Clarence. She looked like she was drugged and then got beaten up. Hard. Even if she was a ghost. I flew over to her. "Clarence! What happened?" I asked. "Clarence!" Her eyes slowly opened. "Clarence, what happened?" 'I-It c-c-came...." She whispered. "I-It took them...." "What took, what took them Clarence?" I asked. "The dragon... that lives deeper in the cave. I-I don't know why I put us here..." Tears came down her face. "Hey, hey, don't blame yourself." I said. "Everything is going to be alright, but we have to find the others. Now, why did the dragon take the others?" I asked. My tone was calm, and so was Clarence. She tried to sit up right, but she was too wounded. "It came during the night, when everyone was asleep. I woke when I heard a grumbling noise. It was the dragon. It had dark yellow eyes, i-it looked like it had fur. It slowly growled, and woke everyone, except you. It breathed a bit of fire, and then took the others. But while it was flying..... i-i-it howled, and then th-these eyes were shown out of no-where. They, did this to me..... they tried to hurt you, but failed. I-I-" She whispered.
"It must of been a wolf dragon." I muttered. "Listen, I can heal you." I said. She stared a me. "Really you would do that for me?" She asked. "Yes. I would." She nodded. I was quite sure I would heal her, I tried to figure out a way. I tried all sorts of ways, but in the end I managed to get it to work. I looked like an idiot, but it worked. All her wounds healed and she got her strength back. "Oh!" Clarence suddenly said trying to get her legs to work. "What?" I asked. "I remember that the dragon called us, 'Non human. Not compatible'. What do you think that means?"
"I have no idea." I lied.
"Where will we find them?" Clarence cried. I flew over to the cave entrance. "I think it's pretty obvious." All the trees had been destroyed by the dragon. "We just follow the path. Easy..." I laughed cautiously. We both knew it would dangerous to go after a wolf dragon, especially since something awoke it from it's slumber.
"Are we going to save them, or are we going to sit around here and ponder?" Clarence asked. I rose into the air. "Lets go and save them!" I said.

I could hear the blasting sounds of the dragon's wings. It was like the sounds of the drums that plays in Hell, or something like that.
I didn't want to open my eyes. I knew that everyone was with me minus the raven and Clarence, but it was terrifying to see it. Anyway, I didn't want to see the ground below me. It would be terrifying. Seeing thousands of metres below me, would terrify anyone.
I surely thought I was going to die.
Wait.
We've landed.
No more blasting wind in my ears.
The dragon loosened it's grip.
Completely.
I could feel the ground.
Oh god, I'm happy.
Wait.
Something else is wrong.
The dragon is growling.
Should I open my eyes?
I mean, I could be smashed to smithereens.
Ah.
Damnit.
It seems that curiosity is going to kill the cat this time.
I slowly opened my eyes.
Yep. Another cliffhanger. Guess you'll have to wait till next time! :-)
