"Female… what are you called?" A light, hesitant, female voice says in my head. I freeze, my head going a thousand miles an hour, Holy Macaroni and Chicken Nuggets! I stare at the creature and it's staring at me intently. I must be going crazy, I shake my head and the creature squints its eyes, slightly.
"You heard me?"
The same voice says in my head. Without thinking, I nod in response. The thing releases a face of surprise, it's eyes widening, its muscles relaxing a teeny bit. I keep my eyes taped on it, or I'm guessing her. I'm so surprised that I can't speak, so… I try to speak in my mind back, "Umm… Hello? Yeah, I can hear you? whatever you are… No offense."
I really don't want to get this thing mad. It looks even more bewildered when I'm guessing it hears me.
"Hello, as I was asking, what is it the humans call you?" I hesitate when she asks this, I just met this creature, closely reminding me of a dragon. Like, two minutes ago, should I trust her? Then I realize, I thought that out loud.
"You can trust me, no one knows about me. By the way, yes I'm a dragon. The answer to your last question."
I think of what Chris said earlier, "… or a dragon perhaps…" No, Chris has a funny imagination, maybe it's just a coincidence. Yeah he really doesn't believe in dragons…. does he?
"I'm Samantha, my friends call me Sam. What's your name?"
The dragon's eyes smile slightly, glad that I chose to trust her.
"My name…" she says in my head, hesitant, "is Emberlynn."
A mix of fantasy, romance, coming of age, and adventure.
