.............

An eyelid opens and a spectacular view of eye came into frame , a purple eye with a cosmological tint in it, it was more like a gem than a eye which gives of the effect of never ending and deep and hidden.

"Yawn!" A little sweet sound escaped from the creature.

The place looks like a cave of solid rocks and clay made. Creature looked around and walks out of the cave where light was illuminating the horizon.

Light falls on the creature and its body shined with the falling lights.

A skin purely made of purple and it has a texture of scales on it .  The whole skin looks flawless and smooth as butter. The creature also had wings of the same color as skin. But the creature had a small size and make it looks like  cute and adorable stuffed toy. But the only difference was that it was very much alive and breathing.

It was none other than a purple-baby-dragon.

Purple-baby-dragon looked around the and saw a vast expand forest. He jumped and took a flight.

And in the next moment, the wings started to create air currents around the body and the bay-dragon started to fly in the sky.

The sky was so big that it even made the baby-dragon looks like a mere bird.

It even started flying higher and higher. And reached a point where it cannot go further up in the sky.

It looked around again and spotted a hilly mountain and started flying towards it.

Dragon flies over the rivers, small mountains and travelled miles with it's astonishing speed.

It reaches a settlement which doesn't look more than a village.

It lands on a filed of corn crops and started eating corns.

"Hmm….So nice!" Dragon started chewing corns happily without any care in the world.

But just as it  was eating the corns, suddenly a shadow launches towards It and hit the dragon. Dragon rolled on the ground along with the shadow and destroying the crops in the process.

"Who da fuck…" Baby dragon was about to curse but stopped when he saw a familiar silhouette. There stands a creature like him but with a red tint all over it, basically a red-bad-dragon.

"Mark!!" Purple dragon said astonishingly.

"Didn't you  said that you were going to go to a different place ? And saying something like feeling ominous feeling?" Purple-baby-dragon added and asked curiously.

"Astarot, I wanted to go but how can I leave my one and only friend here alone?" Mark replied with a sigh.

"Oh! Is that so?" Purple-baby-dragon, Astarot, looked at his friend with squinted eyes and said.

"Hm? What's with that look?'' Mark titled his head and asked.

Astarot shook his head and said, "Nothing! I just remembered 'someone'  was saying that, 'he is afraid of travelling alone' a few ago! And might shit id he..."

"STOP!" Mark yelled with an embarrassed face and tomato red face.

"That's very old thing. Now I have grown up and matured", Mark said with a puffed chest.

"Oh! Is that so? Then why there is a mammoth behind you?" Astarot asked mischievously

"Where?" Mark quickly turned around and squatted where he was standing and covered his head with his hands.

"Hahahahhah!" Astarot started laughing crazily while holding his stomach.

"Mark ! You have 'grown up' then why are you cowering and fearing from a mere mammoth? Hahahhaha" Astarot asked and flew up in the sky.

"You! Wait! Come here! I'm going to kill you today!", Mark said and chasing Astarot.

"Hahaha! You? Kill me? Hahaha, you have to catch me first for that!", Astarot started laughing crazily once again and flew up in the vast sky.

Both of them were flying in the sky but only difference was that one was running was other was chasing.

It was more like a "Tom and Jerry" game but with different animals.

Sometimes Astarot slows his speed down and let the Mark catch up to him and when Mark catches up to him, he again accelerates his speed and leave him behind.

It may seem as that Mark is angry with Astarot but if one were to look at his face which is full of smiles and laughter may have to think again.

...

After hours of chasing and running Mark said, "a-ha-ha! I need to catch my breath! Bastard wait ! I am going to land over here."

Astarot looked over his one and only friend which was struggling for breaths and decided to land.

"Okay!"

Both of them landed on a rock near a corn-farm.

"So! Are you okay now?" Astarot asked while plucking corns from the side-by farms and offering it to Mark.

"Yeah!" Mark said as he accepted the corns.

"You haven't told me what made you return? I remember that you were quite in a hurry and determined.", Astarot asked which chewing off corns with other corner of his mouth.

"You. How can I leave my one and only friend here alone?" Mark said calmly.

"Aww~ I didn't know you care so much about me?" Astarot replied in a comedic way.

"I don't! I just don't want to leave you behind here alone. You are just like me , someone without a family and I can't bring myself to leave you behind and run off alone." Mark said  in a serious tone.

"…I know, that's why we are best friends!" Astarot replied and tried to cheer up the mood.

"But what about that ominous feeling you were telling about", Astarot asked.

" I don't know! I just am feeling scare these and that something is about to happen and gives me goosebumps whenever I think about it." Mark said and looked looks the vast and slight dark sky.

"Bah! Stay positive brother! Nothing's going to happens. I am very strong , I will protect you!", Astarot replied and started flexing his body.

"hahahaha", Mark started laughing seeing Astarot's toddler like muscles.

Two continued chatting , unaware of that fact that something is watching them from the creepy and eerie shadows from which even darkness might get dull in front of.

"Finally the time has come." Voice echoed from the shadow.

"Start preparing for the plan." Another voice said.

The shadows vanished from the spot as there was nothing to begin with and leaving behind the question , "Who were they?".
