Chapter 7
When the light subsides, I take my hands from my face and open my eyes.
In the dragons place, is a woman, about twenty five years old, she has flowing caramel hair and bright green eyes, and perfect skin, she is stunning.
She laughs, the laugh that I now consider very, very, annoying.
She smiles at us, I contemplate for a second on my idea, then walk, no stomp my way up to her and punch her in that pretty little jaw of hers.
I hear Mari gasp behind me.
She doesn't even flinch.
What the heck??
A smirk slides it's way onto her face, the bruise on her jaw already fading.
"Stupid dragons," I mutter under my breath, but of course, her being a Dragon and all, she picks my sentence up with her super human hearing.
She chuckles,"You can't say anything, chickpea, you are a Dragon aswell, you know" she says, but I'm barely listening, I stopped at chickpea, because the heat is flaring up under my skin again, this time with golden, silver and bronze sparks coming out of my fingertips, I lift my hands and observe them with wonder. I hear Mari gasp once again behind me, I also hear her hiss something at Aurelia, but my brain finally processing what Samira just said, my head snaps up and my eyes my meet hers.
"You say what now?" I ask.
"I Said you're a dragon, dearie." She replies.
"I sware, if you call me dearie, chickpea or one of your other nicknames again I'll-"
"You'll what??" She says, "I see you're a very powerful dragon, along with your brother-"
"Wait so that boy that I saw was my brother??" I say, spinning round to face Aurelia.
"Well," she fidgets,"Yes, but-"
She doesn't get to finish her sentence, because Mari cuts her off,
"We'll talk about it later," she says, in a firm tone.
I whirl back to face the cocky dragon/woman/thing, aka Samira.
"What do you mean I'm a dragon and a powerful one at that?" I ask.
"Well if you would stop interrupting," she snaps back at me, "I could explain, but first, I sense a presence in your office, mistress, and it is similiar to the youngling here."
"Oh, yes of course, thank you Samira," Mari walks up to the doors, which are still standing open, and signals for us to follow her.
The doorway, that was previously blocked by a dragon, I still haven't gotten over the fact that dragons existed, let alone I am one, anyway, we walk through the doorway into a simply magnificent hall.
Our footsteps echo in the white marble floor, the extravagant tapestrys of dragons and magic hang from the towering walls, i crane my neck to look at the exquisite carved stone ceiling, I assume with dragons, although it's too far up to get a better look.
There's a massive hole in the roof, where the the blue sky I waiting outside, the hole is for dragons to fly in or out of the castle, I suppose.
As I put my head straight once more, I suddenly notice that we are climbing a ginormous white marble staircase, my feet sink into the red carpet that ran from the doors, up the extravagant staircase, and wraps right around the balcony inside the perimeter of the hall.
As we walk around the balcony, I notice some of the tapestries seem to move out of the corner of my eye, but when I look at them directly, there are at a complete standstill, as I look at one particular tapestry, which shows a magnificent golden dragon on its hind legs, with its massive wings spread wide, while a pillar of fire pours out of its mouth, which sets fire to the enemy knights.
The funny thing is, the fire is moving, how??
I'm about to ask Aurelia, who is walking beside me, looking deep in thought, but before I can Mari, who is walking at the front of the group interrupts, how come I never get to voice my thoughts? Anyway, as I was saying, Mari interupts, "Here we are, my office," she says, she opens the door, as we walk in, I look at the door, it has a bronze name plate in it reading headmistress, oh I didn't know that, she just seems too whats the word, oh yes, too happy, but before I can read the small print under the name, I am interupted, once again.
"Ash!!" A familiar high pitched voice screams, I barely have time to react before a small pair of arms wraps around my waist in a bone-crushing hug.
I wrap my little sister in a loving embrace before I burst into sobs that I have been holding in all day.
