The Bridge

Blood Split

All I know that am in something and am flying. I can't see but the darkness. I try to kick but my feet are tied together and I have something over my mouth. I hear flapping like wings. I start to squirm, all of a sudden I feel like am falling. Bang! My back hurts so bad right now. "What do you think you doing little girl! You could of kill yourself so just hold still if I was you or next time I'll let you fall to your death." A voice growled, it was deep and very rough like a humans.
Finally after what felt like forever we stop and I was thrown. "Umph," is the only sound I could make and I started moving but this time it felt like a cart. Someone pulled the bag of my head. "Now if you be quiet I'll take this put but if not don't think about speaking again, understand?" I shock my in hopes he would take this dumb rope out of mouth. He did, my mouth hurts so bad and my back. He turn back to me, "Does anything hurt?" "Yes, my back and mouth that's it," I say very quietly and lower my head. "OK we will stop about in an hour then we see what's wrong." The cart bumps and I fly off, "ahh." I hit the road very hard but I don't feel anything but just blackness.
"Wake up Kim, wake up!" 'Why is someone is shaking me,' I think to myself. "Five more minutes," I mumble. "No, get up now," I get throw up onto something. Finally my eyes fly open. I look around and am in some kind of camp, and there is a fire in the middle. I'm on the cart that I was on before I fell of. I look over and see horse but they have wings, wait a minute, oh! There pegasus and a dragon, one of the horses walks over to me and nudges me. Ow! I look down and a huge scrape on my elbow. I examine the rest of my body and my knees are bruised. "Why would you fall of the cart, are you dumb or something?" I look over and a man with his face hidden by his hood. He might be a demon rider, doubt it though. "No, I just couldn't hang on cause my hands are tied," I say with attitude. He gets up and walks closer and grabs my neck. "Don't give me sass Kim or your going to wish you hadn't." He puts me down with force and his dragon breath fire as a warning. I get up and walk over to one of the horse. They are both black have blue eyes, I pet one of them and they don't resist. "You are going to ride one of them the morning, since you can't seem to sit in a cart." He says that it reminds me of Katie, oh I miss her so much. I start to cry and I fall next to the horse. The strange man helps me up and puts me on the ground. "Sleep, it's going to be a long day tomorrow." I try sleeping but I keep turning and tossing, also my mind keeps going back to Katie and Rosemary.
'What have I done, they could be died for all I know and I couldn't do a single thing. This is all my fault.' I think to myself, my vision starts to get blurry from my unshedded tears. I try blinking away the tears finally I get them to go away and stare at the stars.
*Flashback*
"Look the big dipper," Jane says while pointing at the stars. We just got done our chores and homework, so we snuck out and looked at the stars. The moon had disappeared and I ask Jane why and all she said was that it does that. We've been staring at the stars for an hour now, so we decide to go to bed.
I start to sob at that memory we used to do that almost every night. My kidnapper started to move, I made a mental note to ask him his name. The dragon seems to be watching me so I try to hide but it just snorts and moves over a little. Finally my eyelids start to feel heavy and I got to sleep.
"Wake up!" I feel someone shaking me and yelling. Finally my eyes fly open and stare at the man who tells me to get up and on the horse. We start riding to god knows where. It felt like hours since we started, we came to a halt so I turn to see a huge coliseum. People were gathering around cages with animals. That's when it hit me am going to be a dragon. I forgot about that power.
"Um sir why am I here?" "Your going to fight in the 80th Animal Games." What no I can't, this can't be happening, no no no. He threw me in a cage and people gather around me but then walk away. Well I guess if this keep up I won't compete, or atleast I hope. The man was getting fustrated near the end and the beginning of the event.
"All competitors must be now in starting cages first up is Demic and Draco. Rhino vs. Lion. All bets will close for first round and five minutes and round starts in 10 so ladies and gentlemen find your seat."
OK now we are moving to the dark and cages with animals. I was stuck in a corner, "Don't use your powers until you need to go it?" I shook my head yes and he disappeared. It seems like hours till I started moving again.
"Next up and last for the finals is Kim vs. Sam. Human vs. Tiger. Animals set go."
Great I'm up against a tiger, I'll wait and use my powers. The tiger came full speed and pounced so use a little strength and push him off. I use my speed to grab a rock and hit the tiger in the head and he black out. People were booing so I went to the cage and hid. I won every battle, I was finally won or so I thought.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new thing this year the winner fights a dragon to the death."
The crowd went wild that meant me ok now time to transform. The huge black doors open that revealed a huge dragon. My heart started to race the dragon was set free I told the crowd to cheer me on and I turn into my beast. There were gasps everywhere, even the dragon seem to be surprised. The surprised look went away fast and attacked. My smaller size could move quickly away from the beast. I turn fast enough to grab his neck and he slowly stop fighting. Finally he laid limped in my mouth the I drop him. I turned back and everything went black the last thing I thought was 'Not again'.
