CHAPTER 1
Sophie had finally finished class at Foxfire for a month. It was now the holidays, and the first time in her life that she could enjoy it with her adoptives parents and her biological mother with whom she had finally reconciled, as well as her friends .
For the first time in years she had prolonged her night, alas cut short by the monstrous roar of an animal, which made her fall from her bed.
- good .. well I think it's a bit missed for this morning grace ..
growled the young woman getting up, she took her Imp in the palm of her hands and gently put it back in her basket. And then went into the bathroom.
Sophie came out about fifteen minutes later, wearing a red tunic and black leggings adorned with silver embroidery and pearls. her golden hair was combed into a braid. She put on a pair of boots and went down to the kitchen. She didn't find Edaline or Grady there. So she went out in the garden of the estate, she passed near Verdi's old enclosure and ventured into a grove before landing again in a vast meadow where she finally noticed it was her adoptive parents and about twenty gnomes who tried to tame a...
- A dragon ! Exclaimed the young woman, surprised, she had never seen one and thought that it really did not exist. The animal, had scales like a galaxy, they varied from purple tones to an ice blue tone, it had large wings and towering horns. He must have been three to four meters tall. Sophie watched the scene from afar, the dragon let out a roar again that made the telepath shiver . She then approached. When the dragon saw her, he simply sat down and stared at the young woman with his large peridot eyes. He lowered his head to the Inflictor's level. Sophie was paralyzed by fear, the dragon began to sniff her and give her a gentle head butt, then he lay down, like a dog in front of his master, which surprised everyone. Sophie began to stroke it on the top of her head.
- I dream where he purrs? Whispered grady.
- no you don't dream Grady, but how? end i mean ... until Sophie arrives he didn't stop behaving like a bully ... and there all of a sudden ... he behaves borderline like a dog or an Imp ...
Sophie continued to scratch the head of the large lizard.
- in fact you're not that bad! What is his or her name?
- well it's a girl and she doesn't have a name yet ... she has only just arrived. What would you like to call her, Sophie? Grady asked.
- hum ... let's see I propose Sohaïlla ... do you like my beautiful?
The dragon rolled onto its back in response.
- we will say yes then!
- But Sophie, how did you do to calm her down ?
- I have absolutely no idea mom ... whispered Sophie. How is it a dragon?
- a stellar dragon, this is the first time that I see one so close, I must say, and so temperamental! Grady exclaimed, yet they are calm and protective dragons ... who wouldn't hurt a fly.
- what is she doing here then?
- well we don't really know, we found her here. Lie down in the grass.
- so no one took her to you.
- no one ! Say in chorus the two adults.
- ah ... Sophie went around the animal, she put a hand on Sohaïlla's belly, the dragon emitted a growl showing its pain.
- She is injured ... whispered the young woman, gently withdrawing her hand from the belly of the animal.
- that's why she came here ... murmured Edaline.
- We're going to take care of you, Sophie said.
- hurt !
- Edaline and Grady will take care of you! Trust them!
- Trust ?
- Yes !
- Mom ! Dad ... I want!
- we'll help you find them! Promised! But first we'll take care of you!
The dragon straightened up again and lowered its head as for Sophie towards the two adults.
- she trusts you, now ... it's just a baby, she's looking for her parents.
"A baby!" the two Ruewens cried with one voice.
- but then... her parents are at least eight meters tall... I didn't think the star dragons were this big! "Edaline declared.
- we're going to take him to Verdi's enclosure.
The dragon was kind enough to follow Sophie to the enclosure.
- thank you for your help Sophie, you want to have lunch?
- no thank you mom, I'm not hungry, I'm going to Candleshade.
- watch out for you girl! Grady said.
- of course Papa! On his words the telepath took out a jump crystal.
