The Dragons Meal

Her parents said they needed to take her somewhere, somewhere in the forest. Knowing she could trust them, she followed them. I mean, she could trust her only family, right? WRONG. Sutton was on her way in the forest, her parents told her to walk in front of them, so she was 'safe'. Sutton decided to speak up after almost two hours of walking in the woods.

"Hey Mother, Father, where are we going? We are in the middle of no where," she said.

All she heard was the whistle of the trees as they were moving against the wind. she flung her head over her shoulder, looking back, expecting her parents. But only getting the view of more gigantic trees. She whipped her head around the wood, calling for her parents.

"Mother! Father! Where are you?" She cried.

But nothing came, only silence. She looked to the ground, nervously biting her lip, only to come across a piece of paper laying on the floor. She picked it up, hoping to find a map so she could find her way home, but no, it was a letter from her parents. It read:

Dear Sutton,

We regret to inform you that your father and I no longer want you, we are tired of your acts of rebelliousness against us, as well as you stubbornness and carelessness. We are sorry to say we are leaving you here in the woods. We are not so sure on how you will survive, but it's for the best.

Sincerely,

Your Parents

Sutton was out raged but she knew if she didn't find shelter soon, she would be on the next mountain lion's dinner plate. Sutton knew she has to find shelter soon, for day light was breaking. If she stayed out during the night, who knows what kind of creature would try to eat her. She finds shelter in the trunk of a huge tree, where a hole lies at the base. She crawled in and looked around, it was like a small room. She walked around in the small space, observing her surroundings.

She spots a tiny flask behind a couple of branches, it looked as if someone wanted to hide it. Sutton held up the flask with her petite hands, trying to se what was in it. Once she looked at it, it immediately made her realize that she hadn't drank anything for at least twelve hours. She was thirsty and needed something to drink before she became dehydrated. Without a second thought she drank all of the fluids the flask contained. As soon as she drank the last bit of it, she sunk to the floor falling into unconsciousness.

She awoke with a sudden jolt, however not in the same place she fell in conscious in, but a long building that had cabin like features. She looked out the window and saw the woods. Without a second glance, she threw her feet over the bed she was sitting on and jumped off, but she felt something under her foot, and that thing screamed. Sutton screamed as well, with a look of fear upon her face.

"OW OW OW,AHH!PLEASE GET OFF OF ME!" The thing said. Sutton screamed even more when she saw what it was, more like who it was.

"What are you, what do you want with me," she screamed with terror.

"We don't want to harm you, we simply want to help you. After we saw you in the woods passed out, we immediately took you here to make sure you were alright. It is our job to help you humans who are abandoned in the woods." She said rather calmly this time.

You humans Sutton thought, why would he call us that, as if he weren't a homosapien. Sure she didn't look like one. One for being so small, and two for having wings. Maybe she is just on of those weirdos who think their a fairy. But then again she is almost the size of a parakeet, she thought. Sutton took up all the courage she could get and asked him the true question.

"What are you?" She asked.

"I am a fairy, but my name is Rhiannon." She said without hesitation.
