Guh...
Waking up beneath a piece of the WTGR roof, I was glad that the roof was quite light as I pushed it off. Tired muscles protesting, I slowly sat up and looked about. Most of the WTGR had been obliterated by Rose last night.
Remembering that I had broke my leg and rose had broken a couple of my ribs, I carefully twisted back and forth and felt my leg to see if either my ribs or leg would scream in pain. Since only my muscles protested against the harsh movement, I surmised that my body had healed itself like it did yesterday when I crawled out from beneath some rubble.
Unexpectedly, a large blue dragon landed beside me and gracefully bent her neck to look at me. Her scales and the webbing on her wings were covered in blue lichen, her talons were a deep navy blue, and the horns sticking out of her head were a blue so light they were nearly white. The dragon's sapphire blue eyes were regarding me with a mix of emotions: anger, affection, fear, fearlessness, cruelty, pity, contempt, and respectfulness.
"Who are you?" I asked reaching out to the dragon.
Snorting, the dragon took off with four hard flaps of her wings.
"Who are you?" I whispered, watching the dragon leave.
Approximately 8.5 hours later Edit
Having set up camp next to a small freshwater river after waking up earlier, I poked my fire with a stick. Hearing a faint step from behind me, I subtly turned my head and said, "I may be human, but I do have a keen sense of hearing. Sneaking up on me is not going to do you any good."
Pausing, the person behind me snarled, "Then it will be the last thing you hear!"
Leaping over the fire, I twisted and rolled to my feet to face a rather unusually large wolf who looked pretty mangled. Recognizing the work, I grinned. "It seems as though a good friend of mine has set her claws in you."
Snarling, the wolf surged forward.
Ducking and dodging, I led the wolf over the river and through the woods without a clue on how I was going to defeat the wolf. Somewhere in the middle of the woods, I tripped over a branch. Landing on my back with a whoof! I saw the wolf leap into the air for one last attack.
Throwing my arm over my face, I waited for the wolf to land on me...and waited...and waited...and waited. Peering out from under my arm, I saw that my jacket had appeared out of thin air and was hovering in mid air with the wolf caught within it.
Hearing a whooshing sound approaching from either side of me, I stuck my arms out and spun around to catch my two Louie baseball bats as they shot into the clearing. As I was still spinning, my coat spun free of the wolf and slid onto my shoulders of it's own accord.
"DOUBLE LOUIE SMASH!"
Coming out of the spin, I slammed both of my bats into the wolf and sent him flying. Kneeling, I hugged my Louies, I had not seen them in a long time. Hearing a roar from above me, I looked up to see the blue dragon from earlier circling.
"Who are you?" I whispered.
