    “What is a dragon?” he wondered.
    “I am a Dragon,” she said; no, she thought it.
    His mind and hers joined. He could talk to her without talking, and he understood her thoughts. He felt her pain slowly subside as the orange glow from his hand spread over her wound and into the torn muscles and broken bones. He could feel each bone repair itself, each muscle regenerate, and finally the skin healed by stitching itself together with no trace of the injury. All this time he was oblivious of what was happening around him. He began to grow weak and was tired, so very tired.
    “Lie down, my Terra, here in my wings,” Fienna thought.
    He was so tired, and she now seemed to almost be part of him.
    Somehow, he knew she would protect him, so he obeyed. Then he heard the large ones speaking, but now he could understand them. The large green one’s head was right over him frantically moving back and forth peering at him and asking Fienna if he had hurt her. Fienna said no, she was fine. Her wing stopped hurting, and she could move it again. The large green head moved over, licked Fienna’s wing with a huge dark red tongue, and peered at it carefully.
    With surprise in her voice, she said, “It is healed; your wing is completely healed. There is not even a sign of the injury.”
    She turned back to Terra.
    “How did you do that?” she asked.
    In the dragon language Terra answered in a tired voice. “I don’t know. I do it.”
    The green dragon again seemed surprised that he answered and told Fienna to push him away, but she would not do it. Instead she folded her wings closer around him and told the green one that he was hers now.
    Lowlack brought him for her, and she was not going to let them eat him.
    The green backed away, looked puzzled, and said, “I’m not going to eat it. I just want to look at it, but don’t get upset, my little one, he is yours to do with as you wish.”
    The green dragon then backed away and started to talk to the other large dragon in the corner of the cave. Terra could not hear what they were saying.
    Fienna thought to him. “Rest, you are tired. We will talk later.”
    He was so very tired and promptly fell asleep in Fienna’s wings.

    Fienna was still in a great deal of pain, and her mother hovered over her, but she could not help her daughter. The entrance of the cave became dark, and Fienna looked up. She saw Lowlack flying into the cave and landing on the little ridge that her mother usually landed on.
    In his mouth was a small struggling animal. She never saw such a thing.
    It was small and had an odd looking multicolored loose skin on it. Her mother told Lowlack that humans were no good, they tasted bad, and she needed good food. Lowlack dropped the little creature in front of Fienna. Her mother moved toward Lowlack, and they started to argue about this creature. It stood up on two legs and started to walk toward her.
    When it reached its hand out to touch her, she shrieked and then an odd feeling came over her. Suddenly, his hand was on her wing, and the pain was eased. She could feel his thoughts. It was a male named Terra.
    She had never heard of a human. He thought she was a Fienna. She was hearing him, but he was not speaking.
    “No, I’m a dragon.”
    “What is a dragon?” he thought.
    “I am a dragon.”
    She watched an orange glow move from his hand to her wing. As the glow moved over her wing, the pain became less and less. She felt her bones knitting together, her muscles healing, and finally her skin sealing. She also felt the Terra’s body growing weaker. He drained his strength to help her heal.
    The pain was gone, and she could move her wing. Terra was tired to the point of collapse. He used all his strength to heal her. She felt so close to him. It was as if he was now part of her. She did not understand, but she wanted to protect
