Leilani looked up at the huge oak tree just inside the forest, a bit deeper then she would normally hang out. With a smile she secured her bag and began to climb the tree. After a few seconds of struggling she got the feel of that tree and climbed it with ease. Once to a strong enough branch she carefully pulled out her notebook and began to sketch a person. She coloured the long wavy hair a blue that was the colour of the Big House while the eyes were black. She designed the clothes and shaded in the skin. After few minutes the drawing was completed with the name jotted underneath, ‘Eva’. She shook her head as the name brought back bad memories and changed it to ‘Ava’. Flipping the page she began to think of what to draw next, remembering the old story her dad used to tell her called ‘The Dragon Painter’ she began to sketch a pearl dragon, leaving the eyes untouched like in the story. In the story if you completed the painting the dragon would come to life. Smirking she drew a chain around the dragon’s leg once again mimicking the story.
