CHAPTER   I

... my life ...

I’m Latis the dragon.  I’m the youngest one in the pack.  Every night my mom tells us of the Chosen Ones.  My older sisters think it’s lame and that my mom made it up.  Why would they think that?  Don’t they know moms never lie?!! 

Well ever since then they’ve been making fun of me because I believe in it.  SO WHAT?!!!  Well I guess that what’s big sisters do.  My mom has been trying and trying to get them to believe in it because she really isn’t lying!!!  But of course they didn’t fall for it for a second.  I guess maybe she could be lying.  Of course I am 6 and they are 9.  I just hope not!!!

For my ninth birthday it was obviously going to be themed the Chosen Ones.  So when my ninth birthday arrived, we were going to do it in the Chosen One exhibit at the Dragonia Ville History Museum.

By the time the party started, 3 out of 7 of my friends showed up when all of them had RSVP’d and said YES!!! L.  This is

SO UNFAIR!!!  Nobody likes me in this crummy town!!! 

Not only am I turning 9 but my sisters are 12!!!  They are so lucky!

A guide started to show us the whole exhibit of the chosen ones.  My sisters weren’t listening at all. They just rolled their eyes and stuck their tongue out at me. 

One of the displays was about The Lynx, the Chosen Ones’ arch enemy.  I noticed the guide was pointing at an ancient stone that said: RED, YELLOW, GREEN AND BLUE, PULL THESE THREE AND YOU WILL SEE.  It had no description to tell you what it was for so I just ignored it.

When the guide was done showing us the whole exhibit, she took us to a room to have cake and open presents. J.  The door had a sign on it that said: HAPPY BIRTHDAY LATIS!!!

The cake was red velvet with white, blue, and purple frosting.  It was so good I could have died right there on my birthday!  But I didn’t! J.

When the party was over, I notice a giant poster on the left wing side of the museum that said: NEW MIDEVIL KNIGHT EXHIBIT COMING IN 1 MONTH!!!  That just really freaked me out because knights are dragons arch enemy!!!  AND I’M A DRAGON!!!

* * * *

A month passed and the new knight exhibit opened and I totally FREAKED!!! L.  My sisters went there on a field trip.  Elsa, one of my sisters went there a thought one of the knights was handsome.  Ever since then she has been talking to herself in the mirror about how she’s going to marry him.  Not happening.

That night was also family movie night.  We watched The Terror of The Black Knights.  It was so scary, I decided to go to bed early.  Yeah!  That’s how scary it was.

* * * *

I woke up at 1:37 a.m. with my mouth taped shut and my feet and claws tied together.  I looked into the hallway and saw my sisters tied to chairs with their mouths taped shut.

I could hear helicopters outside, so I rolled over on my bed and looked out my window to see my mom tied to front lawn with helicopters shining spot lights on her since she’s like……um……30 feet tall!!!

We’ve been dragon-napped!!!

Two dark colored figures came walking into my room then picked me up and my sisters up and through us into the Dragonia Ville History Museum van and drove off.  I was scared. 

My mom was being transported from the anchor of a helicopter.

My sisters and I freed our arms.  Elsa still had her phone in her hand so I took it and tried to call 911.  Nobody answered.  Sparkle, my other older sister tried and still nothing.  It was no use. L.
