Chapter 5? I think that's right...
Jessica awoke to find a large, bright golden eye staring back at her. She screamed, and scrambled backwards until she felt the cave wall. At least, she thought it was the wall...
A bright red, scaly, vaguely reptilian head reached down to peer at her with its two smoldering orange eyes, and the wall, which was actually a leg, moved. Jessica screamed again and ran to the center of the cave.
All around her were creatures she could only describe as dragons. Their heads were somewhat triangular, their eyes large and almond-shaped. A crest of spines ran down their necks from the tops of their heads, and three spikes framed the head on either side. Their four taloned feet each ended in sharp, curved claws. Their wings fanned out from their shoulders, leathery skin stretching between the fingers on the wings. Their tails were topped with sharp spikes. Their scales glimmered with iridescence, and each dragon was a different color.
Jessica spotted the golden one that first startled her, and the red one, first, because they were the biggest. She also noticed a light green one, a dark green, a dark blue, a yellow-white, a purple-blue, a black, a brown, a gray, a red-silver, a white-blue, the list seemed almost endless!
"Do not be afraid." Jessica leaped around to the golden one again as he spoke in a low rumble.
"You can talk?" she asked.
The golden dragon laughed, a deep sound that shook the cave. "Of course!"
"My name is Jessica. Are- are you going to eat me, or something?" she was so frightened, she could barely stay standing.
"No, of course not! We want to try again to live in peace with the humans."
Jessica relaxed a bit, but it was hard to relax with giant dragons all around you, no matter what they said!
"I am Goldenfire," the gold dragon went on, "and this is Lavafire," he pointed with his tail at the red dragon, "Leaf-fire," the light green, "Mysticfire," the dark green, "Oceanfire" the dark blue, "Lightningfire," the yellow-white, "Sharpfire," the purple-blue, "Nightfire," the black, "Lionfire," the brown, "Cinderfire," the gray, "Emberfire," the red-silver, "and Starfire, my daughter," the blue-white was pointed to last, she seemed a bit smaller than the others, and younger.
sorry, I'll continue this later, thinking of all the dragon names used up my creativity. ![Smile [:)]](/emoticons/emotion-1.gif)
