Dragon Descendants.

Chapter Fourteen

"So I'm just going to check your vitals," a woman doctor says. as she picks up a small flashlight. I sit on a bed in the nurse's room, four or five beds laid here, separated by a green curtain.

The woman uses the light to check my eyes, everything seems to be fine.

"You are one lucky girl," the doctor says as she puts the flashlight down and writes some information on a piece of paper,

"What do you mean?" I ask,

"Not only are you living the dream of most women, but you surviving a life in a boy's school, and against male competitors," she says,

I didn't realise how lucky I have been since now,

"Huh, well it isn't easy," I add as she walks over to test my blood pressure.

"I can bet it has been tough, but you'll survive, you have to, for all women,"

"What do you mean?"

"Well since only males can tame a dragon, woman are still seen less than males. If you get even close to the top 50 in this competition, epically with the whole country watching, you are bound to get a name in the big books."

"Top 50, I need to get to the top 20 or my dragon will be taken from me," I say,

"Why's that?" she asks,

"My brother thinks I'm too weak to handle a war dragon,"

"A war dragon!" she exclaims,

"What?"

"A war dragon is most difficult to tame, I'd listen to your brother if I was you." She finishes up,

"All done," she says,

"Thanks,"

"One more thing, you didn't experience anything weird, or unusual in the simulation, did you?" she asks,

I think about it for a second.

"No..." I say.

"Good, if you ever need something give me a call," the doctor says,

"K, bye," I walk off.

Why did I lie? I am not sure, maybe the woman's words stuck with me. I can't trust anyone anymore.

I walk out to the main area, where Ashton and Jackson wait for me worried,

"Elena!" Ashton yells,

"Hey Ash, Brother," I say,

Wait, can I trust these guys?

"the people closer than that may be hiding things" I recall those words, maybe I can't trust them... not quite yet.

"Are you okay? I didn't know they would do that, last year they didn't, I need to go talk to them-" my brother rants on,

"I'm okay, it was just like a nap," I tell him,

"Are you sure?" my brother questions,

"Yes, I'm 110% fine," I convince him. "What about Ash, wasn't he in the simulation?" I ask,

"Yeh, I was but mine didn't last as long as yours did, in fact, no ones lasted longer than 5 hours," Ash says,

"How long was I asleep for?" I ask,

"Elena, today is the last night of camp," Jackson says,

"You were asleep for over 28 hours," Ashton adds.

You have got to be kidding me... 28 hours.

"The only person who came close to that was asleep for 12 hours, and that was Jackson," Ashton informs me, "Over 12 hours is seen as strange, so that's why he is so worried,"
