A Dragons Favor

Winifred dropped us outside the deep chasm that was the dragons nest. She gave us a deep bow and thanked us profusly for our service to dragon kind, we had saved Felix from the clutches of evil and delivered him to his rightful place.

Depression hit me like a ton of bricks, I knew Micah was saying something but my mind wouldn't process it. I glanced at him and he gave me a sad smile, our life after this wouldn't come immediatly. As we descended down the mountain slowly I came to the realization that I was being overly emotional about the whole thing. Felix had imprinted on me and I wanted nothing to do with him, So why was I so sad this was over? Was it because I lost my sense of purpose?

As we reached the cabin belonging to Micah's relative he stopped me.

"Hey. Are you going to be ok? Do you want to talk about this?"

"About what?"

"Why do I feel like this? I didn't even want the responsibility anyway...I never wanted to raise a dragon...So why do I feel like he was taken from me?"

"Well that's easy!" A new voice sounded making me whip around,

"You're experiencing withdrawls."

"Like from a drug?"

"Yes, Exactly!" Somehow Micah's relative, Andrew, had heard our conversation.

"Well, How do I get over it?"

"You need to wait it out, unfortunately there's no cure all for this."

"What about the life we're suppose to start?" I turn asking Micah.

"I'm here with you forever, wherever you may go. From here on we're partners in everything." He said taking my hands, caressing my cheek with his thumb.

"Ok then let's find a place to live...together."

He gave me a huge grin, expressing how much he agreed with my statement.

"Yes let's. And if we run into any problems we cant handle just remember," He said as he pulled out a small golden egg,

" We saved the dragons way of life, they owe us a favor."
