He
recognized
Dejoni
and
he
sighed
“
Dejoni
?
You
can
talk
?”
The
wyvern
nodded
“
I
'
ve
been
able
to
speak
for
a
long
time
.
I
just
never
felt
the
need
to
say
anything
.”
Bryn
was
still
sitting
shocked
“
Tom
,
do
you
know
a
Wyvern
Rider
or
something
?”
Tom
nodded
and
smiled
“
Ya
,
in
fact
I
know
two
.
This
is
Dejoni
,
my
best
friend
'
s
wyvern
.
Dejoni
this
is
Bryn
,
I
just
met
her
tonight
.
I
couldn
'
t
sleep
,
so
I
went
on
a
walk
and
met
her
.”
Dejoni
dipped
his
head
in
Bryn
'
s
direction
then
asked
Tom
“
Why
didn
'
t
you
fly
?
I
find
it
much
more
refreshing
.”
Tom
replied
“
Sometimes
I
walk
instead
of
fly
because
it
makes
me
feel
normal
.”
Bryn
watched
the
two
in
amazement
.
She
turned
to
Tom
and
said
“
You
can
fly
?”
Tom
nodded
saying
“
Ya
what
do
you
think
I
do
with
these
.”
and
he
spread
his
wings
. “
I
just
didn
'
t
completely
connect
that
,
I
guess
I
am
little
slow
and
tired
right
now
.
It
just
doesn
'
t
seem
like
someone
my
age
could
fly
.”
Tom
nodded
“
It
was
weird
for
me
for
a
while
when
I
first
was
able
.
Even
I
didn
'
t
believe
it
.”
Bryn
looked
at
the
moon
and
said
“
I
should
get
home
,
I
need
to
sleep
.”
She
stood
up
and
Tom
said
“
Want
me
to
fly
you
home
?”
Bryn
looked
at
him
and
said
“
Sure
,
that
might
be
fun
.”
Tom
stood
up
and
spread
his
wings
“
Sorry
if
I
drop
you
,
this
is
my
first
time
carrying
someone
while
flying
.”
they
both
laughed
and
Tom
picked
her
up
.
Tom
flew
up
careful
not
to
drop
her
.
He
asked
“
Which
way
?”
she
pointed
and
he
started
flying
,
Dejoni
behind
him
.
As
they
flew
Bryn
gave
him
directions
.
Tom
landed
in
the
middle
of
the
street
then
set
Bryn
down
. “
Good
thing
I
didn
'
t
drop
you
,
I
'
m
surprised
I
didn
'
t
.”
they
laughed
and
Bryn
went
into
her
house
.
Tom
spread
his
wings
again
and
Dejoni
and
he
flew
together
for
a
while
,
then
they
turned
towards
Tom
'
s
house
.
They
landed
in
the
backyard
and
Tom
went
inside
.
He
crept
back
to
his
room
.
Zack
was
still
asleep
and
Tom
went
back
to
sleep
.
He
woke
with
the
sun
shining
in
his
face
.
Zack
was
still
sleeping
,
so
he
decided
to
let
him
sleep
.
He
got
dressed
then
went
downstairs
.
He
went
to
the
kitchen
and
his
mom
was
making
breakfast
.
He
went
over
and
started
helping
.
A
few
minutes
later
he
sat
at
the
table
and
started
eating
.
He
was
eating
his
bacon
when
Zack
finally
came
down
.
Once
Zack
was
done
with
his
food
they
went
out
back
and
got
their
practice
weapons
.
Zack
got
on
Dejoni
and
Tom
spread
his
wings
.
They
both
launched
into
the
air
at
the
same
time
.
As
they
practiced
aerial
combat
over
the
fields
,
Zack
noticed
Tom
was
distracted
.
They
landed
panting
.
And
Zack
asked
“
What
are
you
thinking
about
?”
Tom
looked
at
him
“
What
do
you
mean
?”
Dejoni
replied
for
Zack
“
We
both
know
you
'
re
thinking
about
something
,
we
'
ve
been
with
you
almost
all
the
time
for
months
.”
Tom
told
Zack
that
he
was
thinking
about
the
night
before
,
how
they
both
would
be
fighting
for
the
rest
of
their
careers
.
The
boys
looked
over
and
saw
Madison
walking
over
to
them
. “
I
saw
you
training
and
was
bored
so
I
came
over
here
.”
she
explained
. “
Why
do
you
guys
practice
aerial
combat
anyway
?
Only
people
I
know
who
can
fly
are
either
Dragon
Guardians
or
Wyvern
Riders
.”
The
boys
looked
at
each
other
for
a
second
and
thought
. “
Because
things
like
vampires
,
wild
wyverns
or
dragons
,
other
nations
and
”
Tom
paused
for
a
moment
“
it
'
s
fun
.”
Tom
finished
and
all
of
them
laughed
.
Suddenly
he
heard
someone
say
“
Hello
Tom
.”
he
turned
ready
to
swing
his
axe
.
He
sighed
and
laughed
“
Bryn
,
I
thought
you
would
know
not
to
sneak
up
behind
me
.
I
nearly
cut
you
in
half
.”
Madison
and
Zack
looked
confused
,
Zack
asked
Bryn
“
Hi
,
what
is
your
name
?
I
'
m
Zack
,
this
is
Dejoni
and
Madison
.”
Bryn
nodded
“
I
'
ve
met
Dejoni
.
My
name
is
Bryn
.
What
are
you
guys
doing
?”
Tom
answered
“
Zack
and
me
were
training
,
Madison
just
got
here
.
What
are
you
doing
?”
Bryn
untied
something
from
her
waist
. “
I
was
just
returning
your
jacket
,
you
forgot
it
.”
Bryn
said
,
she
handed
Tom
the
jacket
.
