The Outlaw

Chapter 1

The trees were full of songs from the

wiggalbirds while they shake their tail feathers

to the beat. The water in the stream swerved

round the rocks like a boy dribbling a football

you could also here the faint russell of the

leases being blown by the wind. Suddenly the

bush started to Rustle and a little girl in a pink

dress crawled out. Her hair was in one plait

but it was full of twigs and leaves. She heard

the chiming again and followed it crawling

under branches into mud. She knew she was

getting close as the chimes got louder till she

came to a dark cave. Vines were covering the

entrance they were dark green and swayed in

the wind. After a moment of hesitation the

little girl climbed through pushing the vines to

the side. Inside was a big cave big enough for a

proper sized house and mentally the little girl

decided this was she was going to live from

now on. In the corner of her she saw

something move and whipped around to see a

little baby dragon. It was red with gold claws

and a gold line going down its back from the

top of its head to the tip of its tail. When it saw

it stopped chiming and curiously walked up to

her. As the little girls slowly stepped towards

the dragon it put its head near her hands as if

asking to be petted. The girl reached out a

hand and petted the dragon then giggled with

happiness." hello little dragon have you lost

your mummy as well?’ the girl asked and the

dragon chimed in reply " how about we be

friends my name is lilac and I will name you

rutilus.”
