It was really weird, at first. We were down on the beach, and we were laughing and playing around. Then um, he grabbed me, pulled me close, and kissed me. Uh huh. Kissed me. It was the weirdest and most awesome thing in the world. I mean, it was like.... I dunno. After the kiss, we just kinda stood there, looking at each other. Then I sat down and stared out at the ocean. It was really romantic, cause the wind was blowing the waves were warm and the sun was just starting to go down. He sat next to me. I'm going into story mode again:
"Is anything wrong, Sari?"
I sighed. I had no idea how to tell him this. "I've got a secret."
"What is it?"
I looked at him. "It's something beyond anything you've ever seen, or could ever imagine."
He was confused, I could tell. "Are you going to tell me?"
"Yes. I suppose I am." I stood up and started to morph. Justin stood also. When my wings and tail came out, he backed up a foot. I looked down, ashamed. When I was fully morphed, I moved my wings around, whipping my tail around before curling it around my leg. I held my hand up to show him my talons. He was scared now.
"Saria?"
"Before I was born, scientists grafted me with dragon DNA. Me and my twin. Seven years later, she died and I escaped. We used her body, which was supposed to be cremated, and replaced me with her. They think I died, too. Instead I escaped. Then I found Evanna and the others and we came here."
"Are they... Like you?"
"No. They're not."
I was crying now, tears running down my scaly face. "I'm sorry. I should never have come here." I took off from the ground, rising quickly. I flew off to another part of the island and just sat at the top of the volcano, crying.
The next day I was working in the smoothie shop when Justin came by. Immediately I tensed. I had no idea what he thought of me. He smiled at me and ordered a mango strawberry smoothie. When I was done we went down to the beach and talked for a long time. He's ok with my dragon-girl form, though still a bit freaked at it. It takes some getting used to, I guess.
Anways, I gotta go.
Later.
