cave Of dreams by meagan wheeler (mystery books to read .TXT) 📖

   I stand in an empty clearing. My dark green scales faintly shine in the darkness. My deep blue eyes search for light,only to lnd upon my father,who looks more gruesome then the ussh. "What do you want,"I ask him drawing back,he sniackers,showing red sharp fangs""Nothing,only to see your face once again,"he explains. His torn up wings flutter open,holes in every spot you look. Amber eyes deep of redness land on me. I grimace. I see he has won some new scars. One long scar goes from side to side. Some talons are gone. One eye is closed shut with a coating of blood,and yet,here he is,standing in front of me smiling."Leave me alone"I yell at him.

   Radofear,is his name,frowns at me"Oh come on sweet heart". I growl"No! I'm tired of seeing your face!"With that the clearing dissappears to reveal her cave. She sighs,her heart thudding in fear. "Thank godness."

I sigh and stand up. Shaking off another nightmare,I unfold my wings and fly out for some breakfast. I soar gently on the winds,they keep me afloat. Even with my heavy wheight i can still fly gracefully. I look about,my eyes lazily scanning the ground and air.

A flock of birds catch my gaze. I swoop down and snap my jaw shut around tham,good enough of a breakfast. So I than land onto my sunning spot,an open grassy path that has just enough sunlight. I land. Now it is time to down to besnuss.

I lay down and shut my eyes. I reawaken,not in a dark grotto,but a shore to a sea that looks as if it were made of crystals. "Mom?"I call. A  beautiful serpent. Her light blue hide of scales glows brightly in the light. The wings look as if they were the best leather you could touch. And her eyes,her gentle respectful,sea green eyes. "Hello Asceria"She says with a light voice,her name,is Christina,in honor of her crystal blue hide."Mother,I have come to sought out your aid,Father huants my dreams and I can not escape,what must I do to be rid of him once and for all?" my deep blue eyes shine with longing.

Christina sighs and casts her gaze out to the sea,"You must journey,to here,Crystal Sea,far west of where are now. To be rid of him." I have question in my eye as I ask"But,why?"

"Your father already has a grasp on this place,for you to escape it,you must venture far out of his reach"My mother replies. Her snout turns to me"Remember,you can not do this alone,now go,you must now or he will taint your blood forever"she vanishes and I open my eyes to the high up cliff.

I now know what I must do. I stretch my wings out once again and let the air current lift me to the west. I turn the way and flap them gently on the winds,keeping my eyes ahead. If I don't,I could be ambushed. I see a ledge and put my feet out to land:

My talons grip it and my wieght is set on my feet. I look about. This area is a shrubby forest. I am unfimiliar with this land. I must stay aware.

The soft breeze licks my face as a smell the air for anything to eat. The scent of deer is the first scent I pick up. I narrow my eyes in te spot it is and I lick my lips. Diving down,i easily snatch it.

Setting it down on my rock,I start to tear it's flesh. I then hear something after I had finished it. A twig snapping. My gaze instantly lands in the spot. A Shimmeringshot stands in the open. A Shimmeringshot is a violet dragon,it's wings have a wing span up to thirty-three inches. It can grow to be as big as a small palm tree. She hisses at me and I hiss back.

the violet serpent then growls"What are you doing my terf?"her amber eyes are locked on me."I was only stopping for abit,I'm traveling"I respond,eyes narrowed on her."How about we fight then?"

The Shimmeringshot shoots at me and calws my face. I leap on her,pushing her back. I hiss at her,"Stop,I'm just passing through"Ignoring her,the violet colored dragon knocks me off with her back feet. Growling at me,she shoots at me again and does a purple fireball at me. I get knocked back.
