The Moon Dragon of the Night

The full moon glows over the forest, sending her rays down through the tangled branches. Her warm glow lights up the night, with the help of endless stars filling the sky. A night breeze blows gently through the forest, quietly rustling the leaves and bringing a crisp freshness to the air. Alone silver egg is sitting on the forest floor amongst the decaying leaves. A single ray of moonlight finds its way through the branches of an old oak tree, coming to rest on the silver egg. The egg moves slightly, and a small crack appears on the top. More rays find their way through, covering the egg completely with their soft, warm light. The egg begins to move, and more cracks came. The soon-to-be hatchling made a small hole in the shell, peeking out its tiny nose, sniffing the fresh night air. It quickly retreated back inside, and continued to break its way free from the silver egg. The hole grew twice its size, and out came a beautiful silver dragon. Fighting her way out of the egg, she pushed her way through till she touched the earth with her little dragon foot. She crawled out of the egg with all of her might. Exhausted and hungry she moves her head slightly to the right feeling the cool crisped air blowing on her face. With the dead leaves around making all kinds of sounds of crackling and such she shivered with the unknown sounds and tries with all of her might to move back into the warm egg. As she moved the warm soothing beam of the moonlight hits her nice cool scaly body. Warming her with ease calming her down from the noisy leafs. As she moves towards again her tiny wings were folded against her back, and her short tail wagged slowly. She opened one eye to see what’s the commotion was about, feeling little more confident she opens both of her eyes and took her first look at the world around her. Her eyes glittered like the stars, and her tiny scaly body glistened like the moon. She stretched out her wings and gave out her first cry, then began to crawl away from the remains of the egg. She explored the forest around her, searching for something to eat. She found a beautiful white flower with its petals opened up towards the moon. She sniffed the flower, and her tiny nostrils were filled with a sweet scent. It was so beautiful and smelled so heavenly, that she hated to put an end to the flower. Then she looked past the trees and saw a clearing, so she headed towards that instead. She made her way through the brush, and saw that it was a meadow filled with the white night-bloomers. She felt so hungry that she decided to try one. She took a bite from the nearest flower, and it filled her little mouth with a perfectly sweet taste. Once she discovered the taste, she couldn't resist another bite. After a few more of the delicacies, her tiny belly was full, and she laid down to sleep. She rested her tiny silver head on the ground, and the night breeze lulled her off into a deep sleep. From then on, the dwellers of the forest called her Moon Dragon. For she was only seen in the light of the moon, eating only the white night-bloomers.
