The baby's name is Olive. Victoria decided on that because it's what she wanted to name her kid when she was five years old. Olive is perfect. She was smooth, squishy, rosey, baby skin and had medium-blond hair. The only thing is the dragon. The dragon refuses to let us leave the area around our huts. He breathes fire every time we step out of the imaginary range. We don't know why.

It's getting boring on the island. We almost have nothing to do anymore. Except for finding food. That's all. The dragon keeps us in captivity and when we ask him why he does this he stares at Olive and growls. Then he stares northward and growls. He repeats this many times yet we don't understand and he gives up. I have no ideas.

Olive is the best baby you will ever meet. She is cute, funny, and just so loveable! We would not give her up for ANYTHING!

I know what the dragon wants. I figured it out. But it may not be worth it. Technically, we stole Ezra's egg. So, Ezra wants something from us. An egg is something of life, and so is Olive. If the dragon can have Olive, he will take us home. I've told Tori this but she said she would never give her perfect baby to some clumsy dragon. I'd do the same if I were her.

"Tori, I wanna go home," I said.

"But for Olive? No," she replied.

"We can't stay here forever," I told her.

"Not for Olive. Not for her," she said. I knew that she made up her mind but I was getting sick of Ezra. So were all of my other kids, and Gary told me that he could attempt to kill the dragon even though it could kill him. I refused to let him do that.
