Chapter 5
I was at the schoolyard. I was still freaked out about what happened. Sun and I had an endless talk on the way to school about it. We both decided that Paint could give us answers. Paint was repairing one of the windows that had broke from a bird hitting it. I marched up to him. "Paint we need to talk." I ordered. "And what is this 'talk' about?" He inquired. "It's about what your grandfather told me." I replied. He turned around and looked at me. "And what did he say?" He asked me. A worried look on his face. "Something with dragons and....BRRRRRRINGGGG the distinct sound of the bell echoed outside. "Well you better go, wouldn't want to be late for class." He said. "But I'm not done yet." I stammered. "We will talk about it later, come on now you go!" He said. I walked into school.
The morning went by boringly. I kept thinking about what Paint was going to say. "What will he say, that it's just a bunch of nonsense?" I thought during my first class. Knowing Paint, he wasn't the type that ignored adults. "Then what will he say?" I wondered. I wouldn't know until the end of the school day. Little did I know, the answer would come in a few hours.
It was my fifth class of the day, math, I sat and looked at the teacher. Who was talking about equations. "Ugh, I wish this day would end, I need answers." I thought. This was so boring. Have you ever thought that school was created to give you a headache? Suddenly the intercom buzzed. "Yes?" The teacher asked. "Can we please see Elizabeth Peters, Sun Chang, Tim and Tom Wright to the front office." The lady on the intercom asked. "Yes you may." The teacher said. "Okay." I thought. This has never happened to me. I looked at Sun, she shrugged. We got up and walked to the front office.
We got up to the office, I went for the door, it was locked. "Well then why do we need to be up here if the doors locked?" Tim asked. "Please children follow me." A voice said. I turned to look at the principal, secretary, and oddly my dad. He opened the doors and we all walked out. We walk all the way to the soccer field before Sun asked, "are we in trouble?" The principal stopped, "yes, yes you are." He turn and looked at us. "What did we do?" I asked. "Oh, you saw something that your weren't supposed to see." He said. Then they began to.....change.
Their bodies started shifting around, bones cracking and changing. They got bigger, their bodies got more lizard like. The secretary changed into a rusty color, the principal was black, and my dad was.. Blue. I stumbled back. Finally, three big lizard looking thinking stood in front of us. Then more cracking and wings shot out of their backs. "Dragons." I thought immediately, Paints grandfather was right. The black dragon, that used to be the principal, looked just like the dragon I had encountered that night in the woods. It had the same silver spots underneath his wings.
"That's because I am." A voice said in my head. "What!, how?" I said. "You humans are so dumb, I can take care of that..... Time to die." The black dragon spoke into my mind. "No, dad please." I shouted. The blue dragon showed no emotion as he walk up to me. He opened his mouth and wanted down to bit me. I screamed,then a loud honk came out of nowhere and a jeep rammed its self into the dragon. The dragon roared. I looked at Paint climbing down.
He pointed at another jeep, "come on let's go!" He shouted. We all got in and he started the car. We sped out. The dragon ran at us. Paint turned onto the road. I looked back, kids where already spilling out of the school. It was still the afternoon, not yet the end of school. "Must be that festival that they have every year." I thought. "Now what was that back there?" Tim asked. "Those were dragons." Paint answered. "Dragons don't exist." Tom said. "They do just there isn't a lot of them, not since those dragons came." He said. "Why are they trying to kill us?" Sun asked. "You've seen to much, my kind isn't really that evil. Well the ones from this world aren't." He replied. "Wait those dragons are from an other planet?" Tim asked. "What do you mean 'my kind'." Sun asked. "Well hate to break it to you, I'm a dragon as well." He answered. "really?" I said. "Okay, I know you all have questions but I will answer them later." He said.
We drove a few more miles. There wasn't a single car in sight. "Where are the car?" I asked. "What do you mean.." He looked around. "This isn't good." He said. "What do you...ROAAAARRR a dragon rushed out of the trees onto the road. It was big, had brown scales with lighter colors. "Jump up!" Paint shouted. "What, no way." Sun said. "Just do it, I know what I'm doing." He replied. I looked at the dragon a head of us. We couldn't stop in time. We all jumped upwards, Paint grabbed us and began to change. He grew brown scales and a bright multicolored mane spouted. He grabbed us with his claws and flapped upward with his wings. The dragon below roared and reached for use. The jeep hit it and exploded.
He flew upward, into the sky. A hiss came from behind us. A white dragon with icicle like horns flew toward us. Paint flew higher and higher. "I have to let you go!" He shouted. "wait, what?" In barely materialized what he said before he let go. He turn back and rammed into the other dragon. We were falling, everyone was screaming. We were pretty high up. Then the white dragon whooshed past us. It's wings splayed carelessly. It appeared unconscious. Paint flew underneath us and we landed on his back. "Now I think I should explain some things." He said. "Really?" Everyone said sarcastically.......
