The Disaster
We all sat at the table for dinner. The Farrow family, Stephen, Marcie, Ian and Erica, sat together on one side while Celeste, Peter and I sat on the other.
By now, we had already introduced ourselves to each other and we were having a great time. Peter and Ian were in a deep conversation about fighting and the skills that Ian received from his training. Celeste dreamily watched Ian while eating even though she would usually talk her mouth off. On the other hand, I was half listening to everything Erica has to say about the Queen.
Suddenly, the ground shook. Celeste screamed but the Farrow family seemed to know what to do. They each grabbed a bag while Ian also grabbed his sword. He ran outside with Peter at his tail, holding a shovel.
I looked at the rest of the family and asked, "What's going on?"
They each exchanged a look but refused to say anymore. By then, Celeste was done screaming. We exchanged a look ourselves and decided to go outside to see what was happening.
When we got outside, we couldn't see anything so we followed a group of healthy, strong, young men. They all headed in same direction. When we got there, we saw some of their swords at the ready.
Peter stood a distance away from the group, staring up at the sky. He stood by himself. Celeste pulled my arm and pointed at the sky. I looked up. A dragon.
I followed the gaze of the dragon and realized what it was looking at. Peter. I screamed, "Peter! Watch out!!"
