"Time to come back in!" Liz yells to me from the ground even though she thinks I'm on the ground, I'm not. I look out at the now setting sun, it is a pink growing from the ground into a light blue then into a dark blue and finally the black, it's as black as the dragon, my mind goes to the thought of that horrid creature.

I turn to look at Liz she smiles "Climbing again I see?" I grin,"what else can I do to see if he is in the sky?" I turn sad. Liz's smile turns into a calming frown. I smile lightly at her hoping to make her smile to, but I know she can tell, it's fake. She reaches out for a hug as I jump down the tree. She smiles, "Can you go get another book for the kids, in town?" I smile "Yeah!"
I get to town and I see the librarian my best friend's mom, I call her Nala, "Hi, Nala, how r ya?" She jerks up "Oh hey sweetie, how are you? Nina isn't here, you know that right?" I nod "I'm coming for a book for the little Elves!" She smiles "How's Liz?" I grin "The usual Liz!" She laughs quietly the "Books are over there!" She points to three rows of shelves. "Okay!"

We say the same time, again! He grins and stands up, he offers a hand to me I don't take, I get up just fine. He smirks "Did you get the new book I heard about? 'Walking Down The Street Of Hope'?" He resists my mouth drops "How did you know what it's called? She didn't tell anyone?" His face shows panic "Oh look at the time! I must go! Bye!" He darts away faster than I could say "wait..." I sigh. Then it hits me and I grin, "He's a Wise" I say aloud. I walk back through the forest to home when I here a twig fall, I look up, "It's an owl!" I grumble putting myself at ease.
