Chapter 2: My parents death and dragons

Chapter 2:

My parents death and dragon eggs

      I was digging for a while then i heard a CLUNK!! i dusted off the dirt and saw my fathers brestplate, i dug to the left of him and saw my mother. Thier faces both paralized in fear and their bodies were bloody and torn. I looked next to my dad and saw dragon eggs, 'I'll sell these tommarrow" i thought as i picked one up and examined it, "but i'll keep one..." i told myself. It was the middle of the night and i had trainning in the morning, i took the egg with me and went inside. I put it in the pot over the fire that was still pretty hot but not too hot. I went up to bed and threw myself up on the bed and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pilow.  

         I woke up at 9:45 in the morning, i was late for training!!! i ran downstairs and grabbed my sword and my lighter sheild, then ran outside and around the conner of the dirt road. Then once i got to the end of my street i saw the guards oking around for ditchers, i gulped loudly and caught my breath, then walked up to the guards. "what're you doing out of the trainning academy?" the guard asked puzzled. "I woke up late sir" i said to him politely, "hmmmm..." he thought whether he should report me or write a pass." fine here's a pass, BUT next time i won't be so nice" he looked at me hardly,"thank you sir." i replied takeing the pass and runing to my class. I could hear my teacher and coach yelling at the students in trainning to "cut right!!" and to "dodge left!!!". I ran up and greeted the coach and teacher politely "hello coach, good morning mrs.garcia" "your late..." mrs.garcia exclaimed.

         "yes ma'm" i said "do you have a pass?" she said focusing on the duel, "yes ma'm i do." i said to her  while handing her the pass. She looked at it with a confused look on her face, "*sigh* very well Aaron, now get in the area!" she yelled at me. I grabbed my sheild and sword and was just about to step in when mrs.garcia stopped me "Aaron!!!" "Yes ma'm?" i said confused why she stoped me, "what armour do you have on?" she said with a worried look. I looked down and relized i never took off my dragon scale armour, "D-d-dragon scale armour" i studdered. She looked in the rulebook and looked at me, "i'm sorry dragon scale armour is not allowed" she said with a scowel "you will have to borrow somene else's" she tuned away as she said this. I took off the armour and set it down next to the door, then took someone else's and stepped in the arena. The dragon scale armour was so heavy it made this armour light as crap. i was going against my best friend, Sigan. The bell rang and he charged, my natural reaction was to stand my ground, the coach thought otherwise,he told me to charch and block. I stood there ready to make my move, he swung at me, i ducked and dodged then swung to the right backhanding him in the side where there is no armour. He fell then got right back up struggleing to stand up, i took the opprotunity and charged then smacked him in the neck with the butt of my sword. he fell and couldn't get back up, i got a point, now you thought he would be bleeding right? these arn't real swords just wooden ones. They made him drink some healing stuff and he shot right back up, we got back to our sides of the arena. The belll rang!!, but this time no one charged, we just stood there, Then the coach yelled at sigan to charge, but then i did, he looked suprised to see me charge like that. He took action and swung at me i ducked and doged it, but he won't loose so easily the second round, i was just about to swing at him when i saw is sheild comming up at me.

        He hit me "ha! ha!" i heard him yell as he threw me across the ring, i landed on my back and my sword was about twenty feet away from me and i had no bow. This sucks, i'm gonna get defeated and sigan's not gonna just let this go, he's gonna hold it to me. I ran for my sword with sigan behind me, usually he'd catch up to me, but because of the dragon armour i could run faster because this armour wasn't as heavy. I got to my sword and picked it up and managed to parry his attack, he stumbled suprised to see me parry, and i took advantage of that. I sliced to the right and faked it then went left, he was so cofused, my sword smacked into his side and he fell right down and didn't get back up. "Mabey next time," i told him " yeah..rgh!!...." he sounded in pain and i helped him get up then carried him to the door. the nurse came right up to me "i'll take it from here." she said nevously, i looked down to see my dragon armour... but it wasn't there, i was enraged with fury. " i will find those damn thiefs even if it kills me!!!!" i almost yelled out but manged to keep to myself.
