PANDORA'S POV.
I trot after Apollo, and find a dragon bed just my size. I curl up in it, not really caring who or what it belonged to.
I hear footsteps approaching, and a girly gasp.
I let my paw twitch in acceptance at the sound.
Then, the feeling of a small hand stroking me rouses me from sleep.
I open my eyes, and squint to see what's stroking me. A girl with a little blue/green dragon is squated in front of me, stroking my side.
I offer through her dragon, "Hello, I'm Pandora. Who are you?"
She leaps back in suprise, and Apollo must've heard my conversation.
He's here in a flash, trying to not look like I eat people for breakfast.
I yawn, and stand up. My vision clears completely, and I rub my eyes with my paws.
Apollo tells the young girl what happened, and I curl up to go back to bed.
Then, Apollo taps me on the neck.
Ug.
I open my eye, and look up at him. He gives me the "You lazy dragon." Look, and I stand up.
I look down on Apollo, and lick him. He seems a little stunned, but stares back up at me.
I smile, revealing my fabulous teeth.
Let's say the girl grabs her dragon and runs off.
I flop back down with my back to the cafeteria, startling dust into the air.
Apollo groans, "We have classes in six minutes! Get Up!"
I roll over so I can look at him.
Why can't a dragon sleep?
I stand up, and lower my neck.
Apollo begjns to deny, but then reluctantly climbs on bare back.
He says he hates it, but I think otherwise.
He whispers, "Don't make any more of a fool of yourself, okay? That was Feona's neice who's visiting all week."
I groan, and take off for the exit.
Apollo's clutching the spine in front of him. I snicker, and take to the air as I clear the building.
Apollo cries, "Thanks for nearly killing me, you lazy dragon!"
Wow, what?
I get an evil idea, and begin to fly upside down. Haha!
Wait, what're doing?
He climbs onto my belly, and sits there.
You little!
I let him sit there, and then he lies down and has a nap. On my stomach.
I leave him, until we're near the magic area.
I warble a warning, and he clings to my neck.
I flip right way up, and smile at Apollo.
This time he bursts out laughing. Soon, I join him.
Feona flys beside us, and asks, "How did you manage to get your dragon to allow that?"
He shrugs, and pats my neck.
He whispers to me through the mind link, "I'm polishing your scales tonight, by the way."
I growl, "Why?"
He chuckles, "Eventing in two days. We're going to kick butt."
I don't reply.
We land without a sound, but Athena still notices our landing.
She smiles and whispers, "You nearly got it, just a little quieter with your wing beats, Pandora."
I sigh, and flop down to watch Apollo mess around with Fire and Ice.
