Legendary Dragons: The Black Dragon

Chapter Three

      nce Alexis and I went our separate ways I headed towards the purple dorm building. I had overheard someone saying that each dorm held 50 students. Every student gets there own dorm! I was so afraid I might get a roommate who's a total jerk.

I surveyed my surroundings and saw a monstrously big, black dragon. It's neck was long and snake like, winding around the tower. It's forked tongue spewed fire. It made me jump and I fell off the edge of the bedrock tower. I screamed as I got closer and closer to the lava. I was just about to be burned to bones when...
