Comments are welcom i would love some advise and/or your thoughts.


Drip....Drip....Drip....Drip....Drip....Drip....In an icy cave atop a snowy mountain a dragon lies dormant undisturbed for thousands of years. The cave consisted of mainly ice with the floor being a mix of dirt and ice-slush. Drip....Drip....Drip....Drip....CRACK....BONK...."OW", I complained "that hurt!" The dragon was rudely awoken by a slow melting stalactite hanging above his head. Being asleep for a thousand years can really refresh you. As the dragon slowly rose from the spot where he was sleeping he noticed that about 50% of the ice that made up his den was gone?! Being a curious dragon and slightly angered that some force was messing with his home he made his way through the cave to the entrance. While he was walking he felt all the pains and aches form sleeping on a slightly harder surface then was comfortable with. Due to the height of his den and his height he was forced into the traditional stance of walking on all fours. As he walked he noticed that the ground was extremely wet. Realizing that the ice had melted and was absorbed into the ground, "but the ground can only absorb so much", he thought to himself. Getting closer to the entrance he could hear a very soft rumbling that to a human was undetectable, (being a dragon you have perks, for example you have the ability to use magic, you are fire proof (on the outside), you can breathe fire (or in some cases ice breath), you have sharpened senses like super hearing and extremely good night vision and not to mention you could smell food from miles away), but after a second or two the rumble would be gone then it would return after a couple of minutes. "What is that sound?" he wondered. The rumbles would continue but each one was somehow different in there pitch.as the dragon continued his journey to the entrance he was suddenly stopped by a wall right in his way the wall was solid ice and looked one or two feet thick. Casually he waved his hand and the wall receded into the ground. He continued with only one or two more walls in his path. When he reached the last wall or what he thought was the last wall he noticed that the rumbles were getting louder the closer he got to the entrance of his cave. Instead of waving his hand to dismiss the wall he approached it and drew a big rectangle which then turned transparent but unlike a window the ice was one way so only the dragon could see out. What the dragon saw through the window surprised him! "What has happened to my snowy forest?!" he exclaimed. In place of the snowy forest was an unattractive flat grey protrusion with yellow dashes down the middle. All of the sudden he saw 2 bright white eyes that seemed to be getting closer and closer to his cave entrance, but slowly turned following the grey protrusion on the ground where the forest once was scared because what he saw was unlike anything he had ever seen before. "What was that beast that rumbled past my cave?" he said with a hint of fear in his voice. As the eyes turned completely he saw something that frightened him more, apparently the beast had eyes in the back of its body also. After the beast had gotten far enough away he stepped away from the "window in the wall, which disappeared after he had stepped away from it, with both hands he motioned for the wall to split in half and open vertically so he could exit. To any normal human looking at that spot on the mountain they would have seen snowy mountain side, but to the dragon there was a huge cave entrance the humans only saw a magical projection of a snow covered mountain. Once he was far enough away he resealed the wall and took flight.

When he reach his cruising altitude which meant he was high enough to not be seen by the humans he almost passed out from what he saw, practically the rest of the mountain was devoid of all snow with the exception of the shaded spots and his side of the mountain because it didn't get much sun. As he continued to fly he heard a loud humming that was coming up on him from behind at an incredible rate. When he turned to check to see what was making the noise he saw a giant metal bird a little bigger then him flying towards him with extreme speed. He was forced to take action in avoiding the bird. He took a nose dive to avoid it then got ready to breathe his icy breath at the bird if it decided to attack him again, but to his surprise it kept going in the direction it was originally headed. He decided to follow the bird to see if he could get some answers from it. He immediately started to poor on the speed in order to catch up to it. Once he got closer to the bird he noticed it was unlike any bird he had seen before it had pointed tail feathers and unmoving wings. The closer he got the more he saw what looked like 30 or 40 small windows along the side of it. As he neared the front of the bird he saw a bigger window and inside the window were two skinny humans along with a bunch of flashing lights. He experimentally touched one of the wings and discovered that they were indeed stationary angered by this fact he gripped the metal wing and ripped it off the side of the bird he then did the same to the other one. After he had ripped them off he gripped the wingless bird and headed back to his den. That was the last time the humans ever saw flight 370 from Malaysia. The dragon proud of his large kill landed on the grey protrusion that lay in front of his den entrance and began to poke at the carcass when he heard the hiss of compressed air followed by a panel on the side of the bird fall. Once the panel had fallen a bright yellow object inflated and humans started to poor out of the bird like ants on a dead carcass. Sleeping for a thousand years really leaves you hungry so he picked up a hand full of the humans and decided food was food and ate them. Humans aren't the best food but I was making do with what was available.
