The leaves rustled in the slight breeze, creating a music only nature can make. The breeze slowly got stronger until finally a small amount of water spilled over the side of the pond onto a small fawn curled up in the long grass. The fawn, Rowan, woke with a start, gasping as she emerged from his nightmare. She looked around, taking in her surroundings and after a minute she was sure this was her home. But something was missing, something important... It came to her suddenely, her brother, where was he? She didn't waste a second more, leaping up she started calling her brothers name, "Dante!" "Dante, where are you?!" Suddenely a great roar shook the ground, knocking Rowan to the ground. She looked up into the originally blue sky only to see huge, black clouds rolling in from the west but that wasn't the only thing. A huge flame seemed to spurt from the clouds setting a huge patch of the forest on fire. That was when the huge, black dragon chose to make its apperance. It plunged towards the ground, head first, but just as it looked as if it was going to crash it put out its huge legs and landed with a tree-splitting thud. The last thing Rowan heard was a fawns for help as the dragon lifted up of the ground, it had something dangling from its mouth, a fawn. That was all Rowan needed, she curled up in a ball and left her real nightmares to plunge into her dream nightmares but when she woke up she realised, that cry had been her brothers cry, the dragon had her brother and she was going to get him back!
