Snippet #2471535

The day started as any day by the lake as the sun slowly rose, it's light moving slowly across the ground than along the smooth water tell it touched the wounded lupine dragon form that laid out along the ground several feet from the lake as birds and insects greeted the day with their normal songs, while fish swam to the top to snatch their own treats while frogs sang from the water pads that floated along the edge of the lake.

A low groan of pain echoed as pale sapphire blue eyes blinked open as the sun light drifted over Ko's face causing him to blink rapidly even as another groan slipped from his as turned his head and lifted his left wing to buried his head under it and cried out, the sound sending the birds flying and the frogs to leap into the water as it echoed through the clearing and Ko keened with pain as his wing dropped back to the ground and the scent of blood once again drifted to his nostrils.

Taking a deep breath Ko gritted his teeth and slowly lifted his head, breathing a hiss through his teeth at the pain from the wounds on his neck and looked back at his wings and flinched when he saw blood trickling from the puncture wounds along the edge where the wings were connected to his back as well as the sections where feathers had been either ripped out or shredded with claws. Once again he laid his head down, stretching out his neck as he did his breathing slightly elevated from the pain as he tried to once again ignore the pain.

"Why was I born different? Why feathered fragile wings instead of normal ones!?" he muttered as he closed his eyes, shifting his head slightly to keep the morning sun out of his eyes, the two small tentacle like tails flicking, while the two split small tails did the same, the soft morning breeze fluttered the odd purple feathers and fur as once again the birds began to sing as the frogs returned and began to croak again.
