"H-hello? Can anybody hear me?" Scout looked around, trying to figure which way he came from. Everything just looked the same, and it meant nothing to him. He curled up close to a tree trunk, whimpering again.

"I-I-I-I can year y-y-you…" Andie said scared

"Who's there? Can you help me? I-I think I'm lost." Scout lifted his head, looking for the source of the other voice.

"I kinda can't move myself. My wing got scratched up and the pain is really hard on me."

"Okay, I'll come find you." Scout pulled himself to his paws and sniffed around, following the scent of the unfamiliar creature. He took what he could learn about them from the scent. What he knew was that it was female, large, injured, and as she had said, had wings.

"Don't be scared. I'm going to be much larger when I'm a grown up. I can't wait! Than I won't be pushed around."

"I hope I do too, but foxes don't really get that big…" Scout turned round the corner and found Andie. At first he was startled, but remembered that she had said not to be scared and composed himself, looking up at the dragon and feeling incredibly small.

"I might look old but I'm just 10!"

"Really? I'm…" Scout thought for a moment. "Four months old now!" He sat down next to the dragon, wagging his tail.

"What?"

"What do you mean?"

Scout looked confused. "I mean I was born four months ago? I dunno…"

"Then how where you left alone? I mean your four months it's dangerous!"

"I'm fine! I mean, I can hunt okay, I… no, I can't fight… I know how to find safe water in the woods! I could survive, at least for a little while!" He seemed cheerful enough.

"Well being a dragon is way different. It's always your self first. I even fell down over a bird. A BIRD!"

(hello?)

"I mean a stupid bird! Can you believe it!"

Scout nodded. "I frequently get bested by rocks and tree roots and the like. I'm very clumsy."

"Well did anyone ever care for you?" Andie said.

Hello?

(Sorry I went to Easter service and then to my grandma's house)
"Yeah! My parents care about me. I mean, it's fairly typical for young animals to stumble over their paws when they're learning to walk and stuff, I just sort of retained that."
