Toby's Story
This is the story of Toby the dragon.
Chapter 1
********************
Toby lay under his favorite tree, blowing smoke rings. He was terribly bored. Oh, of course he had friends, but it seemed they were always occupied and never had time to spend with him. Looking up at the bright blue sky, Toby wished he had a loyal, loving friend to share things with, to tell secrets to. But after all these years he was sure that would never happen. The only friends he had, were not-so-loyal ones. Rising to his paws, Toby shook the boredom away and spread his wings. Flying will get my mind off of it, he thought as he took flight. Gliding smoothly through the air, Toby peered down at the mountains and valleys below. "I just love being a dragon," he muttered to himself. Closing his eyes, Toby let the wind carry him. It felt nice to be in the air. Suddenly, he heard a cry of distress far below. Jerking in alarm, he almost instinctively began to lose altitude. Toby had to see what was going on, since he was a dragon of the curious type. He landed neatly in a wide vista. Where did it come from? he thought. Toby got his answer when the cry echoed again. It was behind him, in the woods, and not far off. Padding silently towards the cry, he thought, Am I doing the right thing? Without giving himself an answer, he walked into the woods behind him.
If you guys like it, I need at least 5 more posts to post the rest of chapter 1.
