Something Strange Emerging(Cover is a place holder)

A Chance[2]

It had been a week since she has been here, roaming the castle in the clutches of some dwarf dinosaur was strange. Getting acquainted with this place as a home was not as hard as you'd think. It was a beautiful build and had the most amazing view of the area. Ripto enjoyed seeing the setting sun before bed and honestly she couldn't complain. It was incredible and calming, a huff escaping her icy lungs."Come," came Ripto's voice as he gazed over. The Dragoness nodding jumping up onto the bed and curling up. The sheets where soft warm and very comfy a soft snort escaping the female as she cuddled herself close. The shifting of the bed startled her as she gazed a purple orb observing the dino as he got in wearing a robe like dress. Making her laugh a bit."What are you laughing at?" Ripto asked as Athena shut up curling back up."Nothing just a thought."

That was the last words spoken as the two drifted into sleep. For the first time since she got here she dreamt. Within that dream folded..her home? It was the Peace Keepers Realm she could almost feel the sun beating down on her feathers. She saw figures holding an egg. They seemed Fluffy unlike the dragons she knew of that realm. Her eyes fixed on them her tail swaying "Hello?" she asked approaching the figures becoming visible, but still in shadows."Its ok where close to the Portal just a bit further" a masculin type voice spoke as a more femmine one followed after it."It's So hot we didn't bring enough cantine,The egg could boil" there was a slight thud as the male had moved making a shady spot under a large building. Giving an Icy breath to incase the egg. Sitting close by the two sighed settleing into the shaded area gazing at the sun. The female holding the egg close."Athena is gonna be so amazed".The Dragoness gasped as she watched the scene unfold"m-m-my parents?" she stuttered voice struggling to not cry as she moved closer. A Black shadow faded over her eyes and the next scene showed statues green statues"No! No that can't be real!" she screamed. The sky turned dark then to day in a sped up motion.The Statues being covered in moss the egg beginning to unfreeze and crack. Soon after a small hatchling stretching out and wiggling onto the damp wet grass."I-its me" she said staring at her younger self before she gasped waking up and almost falling her muzzle wet with tears."Athena?!" She jerked her head to see the dino in her face almost inches away as she cried looking away embarrassed."Hey its ok what happened?" the sudden change in his attitude was strange.He was treating her like some pet then does a complete turn and treats The Dragoness like he cares."Just a dream,Im ok thank you though" he seemed reluctant to push further but nodded and scooted away.Not before giving her a light pet rubbing her horns it was calming strange but calming.Once she knew he was asleep the Dragoness shuffled to the other pillow curling up on it, tail laying just behind him. Why it felt so calming to be at least a bit closer to the person who is literally keeping you caged. But he was also the reason she wasn't starved and have at least a warm and sheltered place to sleep so at least showing thanks would be good.With that falling back into a dreamless sleep with the best anyone could of hoped for after that.
