Luthien- Silly. Axl and dark magic? Crazy. 

~~~~~~ 3 Days Later~~~~~~~

I woke up, and streched. Nuoí was the size of a ...... Well I don't know anything that size. All I know is she was big enough to fly on. I grabbed the saddle off my wall and strapped it onto Nuoí. Her scales shifted after I put it on. We flew  out the window and off to Luthien's house. I knocked on the door. No reply. I knocked, harder and louder. No reply. I signed and flew off. 

Upwards! 

Ok.

We flew up high, and we could see all around us. My eyes soon fell apon a camp with three seemingly unprotected tents. I seen Luthien and her dragon circling the camp along with the rider and its blue dragon. 

Go!! 

We flew towards the camp with extreme speed. Nuoï flew upward then folded her wings. She dove downward. If I was not strapped on I probably would have fallen to my death. When we were 20 feet away from the ground Nuoí did two things:

1. Grabbed one of the persons trying to shoot down the dragons.

2. Opened her wings and tilted them so we flew back up into the sky.

When we where high Nuoí yelled her thoughts aloud so everybody could hear;

OATH BREAKER! EGG SMASHER! Then she dropped him.

 
I then noticed the camp was on a cliff. From behind the cliff, up flew Axl and his dragon. His dragon made his thoughts for everybody to hear;

WE ARE, THE ARROWHEAD DOMINION! WE WILL BREAK EVERY EGG!!

 
I gasped. Then all three dragons, and riders, drew their swords, including m , and charged Axl and his dragon.

Sorry been busy. 

Senaria-

I rush in to get in line for the choosing of the dragon riders. I heard that they have five eggs. I hear a gasp as the egg turns a bright shade of orange. I hear wistful sighs as the elders declare the girl is going to be a dragon rider. Three more boys and another girl go and then it is my turn.  I hesitantly pass my hand over the egg. Then it turns bright orange. "People," the elder says, "we have found another rider!" I find myself blushing under the stare of all the people. I pick up the egg and rush away. The next day at the third meal I walk back to my room and just as I open the door I hear a cracking. My first thought is that the roof is cracking but then it dawns on me. I run to the shelf where I put the egg and I see two cracks forming. Then the shell pops open and I see a baby dragon. It is bluish green and and has tiny wings. I tentativly reach out my hand and then pull it back in alarm as the gedwey ignasia apears on my palm. The dragon opens its moulth wide and i see about twenty? needle-sharp teeth. "Ris," I shout, "can you bring some chicken for my new dragon? I hear Ris or Rismer give an excited squeak and a few seconds later I hear Ris knocking on the door. Ever since I got home she has been in awe of me and is just like my servant. Her head appears around the door, and with big eyes she hands me a plate of chicken. The dragon reaches out its little neck and grabs a small bit of chicken out of my hand. Then I hear my dragon call into my mind, "Senaria Senaria." "I think I am going to call you mmmm Arana." Then I hear a knock at the door. Ris runs out of the room and I hear the door open. Then I hear Ris's voice from downstairs. "Sen, it's the dragon teacher." Arana eats a fourth piece of chicken and crawls onto my arm, then I head downstairs.  

"Tari," I say after she starts to charge. "Tari, NO!" When she stops, I say, "You don't know enough. Go back to the village. You'll meet another new rider, Seneria, there." Tari looks at me reproachfully, but she does what I say. Once I'm sure that she's gone, I turn my attention back to Axl. Tari had been right. Are you ready to fight? I ask  Bluit. I was born ready, she responds. Then let's fly. We charge Axl and his dragon. I pull out my sword, and , once close enough, swipe. I hit Axl's dragon, and while Axl is distracted I think "Brising.r" His tunic catches on fire.  Cursing loudly, he turns away from me. Bad decision. Soon the battle is over. We've won, but Axl escaped. As soon as I land in front of my home tree, Tari comes out, pulling Seneria along. 

Should I stop posting on the CB and work on my CriNoWriMo novel? Yeah, I should. 1 sentence.

"What happened? Did we win?"

Luthien describes the events. My smile fades into a frown. " Axl? Why him....," I whisper. I swing onto Nuoí. "I am going after him," I announce. 

" Tarí,no!" Luthien yells as Nuoí starts to glide towards the hills.

Will write more later if someone does not reply. 

Wow! Didn't even notice this had started! Writing ASAP!!

Two new Riders. TWO. I am positively green with envy. I got my turn at the eggs yesterday, but they didn't respond, which only made the envy worse. I probably know the most about dragonlore of any non-Rider...which isn't to say that I know a lot. The Riders keep many things secret, and I have suspected for years that there is much even they do not know. But I do know enough to have a healthy respect for the power and majesty of dragons, and to wish with all my heart that an egg would choose me.

I have to settle for watching the Riders, new and old, and their dragons. It has become something of an obsession. Usually an elf's life is peaceful, but between Rider-watching, day-to-day activities, and research in Tialdarí Hall, mine is getting quite hectic! The dragons have been growing astonishingly fast, and their Riders' strength in magic is unbelievable. At least from the glimpses I've caught of dragons flying over the treetops, or of Riders performing small practice magics in corners and alleyways. The training itself is secret.

Many have told me that a dragon chick is too much to hope for. Perhaps it is, for some. But I feel like my hope will last awhile yet.
