"Dragon Rider"
Chapter 3
Obviously, everyone knew Draco. He's like a celebrity. We had to move him to Magmient though because the poor overgrown lizard became too big to be still in our neighborhood. We would visit him everyday. He just loves to fly with me and Ruby. We can't catch up with Draco though. He'd just slow down if he feels he's getting too fast for us. Often times, we would go flying in Aniceknight because the view there's awesome. One time, Ruby and I got home when it was dark already. This time, we didn't let Draco escort us home. Usually, he would. Just be looking at Draco, it was obvious that he was really tired so we let him just rest instead. I woke up the next day because of the ruckus outside. There was an awful lot of people outside the house, furious about something. When I got out, a man from the mob immediately grabbed me and said, " Saint Morning was burned down to the ground last night because of the dragon you raised!" I was surprised. They were all so nosiy I couldn't think clearly. Then I heard someone shouted, "SOME OF US ALREADY WENT TO MAGMIENT TO KILL YOUR DRAGON!" I then immediately grabbed my board and went to Magmient. When I got there, Draco was already being attacked. They were shooting arrows at him. All poor Draco could do was fly as fast as he could. Soon, the people lost sight of him. I knew where he would go though, the garden of Rhisis. As expected, he was there. Some of the arrows got to him. Removing the arrows one after the others wasn't a good experience. He got badly wounded. He couldn't even fly or just stand right anymore. He must've just forced himself to reach the garden of Rhisis.
Just after a few hours, Ruby came... along with her were some of the people from the house. As she walked up to me, drops of rain came falling from the sky. Soon enough, it was raining heavily. "Ruby, you let them know?" She looked so fragile. Though the rain did a good job of washing away her tears, I knew she was crying that time."I'm sorry, Alexis... I had no choice. They were gonna hurt your parents." I couldn't say a word after that. I just walked away from her and just tried to protect Draco by fending off the angry mob. I couldn't use my bow though. I just can't kill any of them. My only weapon then was my body (crap!). The rain made it even harder to move. Outnumbered, I got beaten up so hard I thought I was gonna die. I looked lifeless lying on the ground. My face was half-submerged in mud. Hell--I was covered in mud! I couldn't move anymore. The people left immediately after taking Draco with them. They tied him in ropes, placed him in a net, then transported him to Saint Morning. It was obvious to me that they were gonna kill him there. Ruby stayed behind. She rushed to me and helped me stood up. I was still too weak though. I was too heavy for Ruby alone so she just let me sit down instead. She then handed me a capsule. After taking it in, I fell lifeless on the ground. I died. "Alexis, Alexis... Alexis!" no response. "Alexis, don't you dare die on me!" She kept on hitting my chest. "Alexis, don't leave me alone!" She held me close, crying like she suddenly lost on of her arms.
I then...
laughed so hard! "Ruby, I was just..." She banged my head to the mud before I could say another word. "YOU JERK!" She then hugged me (so tight). "Ouch! Ruby, that hurts."
