You know I'm not one to break promises
I don't want to hurt you but I need to breathe
At the end of it all, you're still my best friend
But there's something inside that I need to release
Which way is right, which way is wrong
How do I say that I need to move on
You know we're headed separate ways
And it feels like I am just too close to love you
There's nothing I can really say
I can't lie no more, I can't hide no more
Got to be true to myself
And it feels like I am just too close to love you
So I'll be on my way
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don't forget me, I begged, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over yet
I am like water.
I am rebellious, a rule breaker.
I am hard to contain.
Sometimes I can be soft and other times I can kill you.
I can erode away at you, yet I can sustain you.
I am smart and clever, and I am not easily argued with.
I am pure and clean and exposed.
I easily mix with the world.
Perfectionist
Adventurous

Scales ||
Scales the second, or often just scales, is a gecko she found when she ran away from home. He has been her best friend ever since the start, and always will be. He is a crocodile gecko with striking blue eyes. Paige has a small carrier for him.
Tell us about when she was mistaken for a guy:Well... I was.. I was running the streets.... trying to run away from all things that were hurting me...
Pai, slow down. This is supposed to be funny, not dramatic.What's wrong with that? That's a good start to a story!
What's wrong with it is that it isn't what happened.Fine. Well, I was at this corner store buying some food to hold me over until I found a new job when I overheard two dragons talking. One of them was a stranger to me and the other was Blane, my best friend. They were whispering and looking at me, or at least the stranger was.
"So that's your boyfriend?" I heard the stranger say. I froze with confusion. He must be talking about someone else.
Blane looked at the other Dragon. "Uhmmm... no."
"But you guys would be so cute together!"
"I hate to inform you, but... well.. Paige is a girl."
The Jellybean Dragon looked at her in shock. "So... you're... you're..."
"Umm. No."
"Then why do you--"
"Because we're friends? Is that illegal now?" Blane looked at me. She was near cracking up. I smiled widely and walked up to my friend.
"That put a little sparkle in my day." I said, laughing.
"Heh, mine, too." Blane said.
Interesting.... What her most ridiculous fear:
That would be Aviation. At the home I'm living at now to meet who might be my owner he's like a kid, constantly running amok pretty much everywhere. I'm scared of him because he has a small army of tiny mechanical planes on hand at all times. Normally he uses them for just doing stuff around the house, but that kid's unpredictable. I'm not counting on him not attacking me with a militia of aircraft just yet.
Paige, god. Avy isn't that bad, is he? ever since he met Neve he's been a lot more mature.Oooohh, so that's why he runs around the house singing 'Neve I love you' all the time. Seriously, that kid has some isssuuuuuuuessss.
Hold on hold on hold on... HOLD ON GIRL. Oh no you didn't!Oh yes I did!
Waffles, Why does she hate them?:Waffles.
Why do you torture meeeeeeee!
Hmmhmm... Well... It was a dark night...
Paige.Fine. Go with it real. Okay.
I hate waffles because I used to love them. I mean, when my mom was gone and I was left home alone, I found the package of Eggos in the freezer and pulled them out. I ate pretty much the whole box and when my mom came back and saw the empty box and me laying on top of it, she didn't really know how to react. She just stood there, and then said, "Hon, were those the Eggos?" I nodded lethargically. She shook her head. "Those have been expired for over a year now."
I had some pretty bad food poisoning for the next week, and I have vowed to never even touch a waffle ever again.
And besides, waffles are fatty. It's just carbs, and with the toppings it's just carbs with sugar and fat. When you say you love waffles then you're basically saying you love cellulite and sugar highs. And then there's that stupid 'Do You Like Waffles' song. I swear to god that that will be ingrained into my head forever.
Oh, so you're saying I'm fat now.Do you eat waffles?
What do you think? Everybody eats waffles except you, apparently.Then yes.
She loves silver, but she's rather poor how does she end up getting it?I get my silver from taking it whenever I can. I don't rob, I just make and re-make like any other runaway would. I take some of my writing to a publishing company and I leave it at their door, putting it under a pen name so they don't know it's a pet who wrote these tales. I receive money by using a vacant apartment as my address for checks. Then, afterwards, I take three quarters and buy food and things I need, and I take what is left and buy silver jewelry. I have at least fifty necklaces, earrings, and bracelets all together, all containing my favorite thing in some amazing way. My favorite is a beautiful pendant. It is a sapphire, a large one, too, and there is a swirl of silver going all the way to the middle inside of it. It took me a year to save for it, and it was what sparked my love for both the gem and the element.
I love silver too, good choice of precious metal.
Why is she poor?There's an obvious reason for that. I mean, I only bring in enough money to eat and buy my silver. I practically live on the streets, passing from house to house, trying to salvage food from garbage cans when I run low. I wish I did have for money. but yet I don't. My experiences with my parents made me realize that money isn't everything and that I need to focus on the important things in life.
What jewelry does she have?Oh, I have so much jewelry. I have many, many bracelets, though most are silver bangles that I wear as just an on-the-run kind of thing. I am always wearing my sapphire, of course, but I will wear other necklaces I have, like my necklace that says love, but made out of hands. I also have tail rings, one says friendship and another says trust. I also have two special necklaces. One says 'true' and one says 'love'. They fit together to make a heart. I'm saving it for the right dragon to give it to.
And who would that be, hmmm?That is none of your concern.
What traumatic experience as a kid made her afraid of Crickets:When I was little, we had a sort of spider problem in our house. We didn't have too many, we just... didn't have any at all. So, we had bugs everywhere. I swear, flies breed like... well, flies. They were everywhere.
Right.Maybe I was exaggerating a little bit.... but the thing is, we went on vacation for a week or so. When we came home, I went to the fridge to see if that pie was still there.
The pie was still there, but... just... instead of a pie it had been transformed over vacation into a cricket nest. This didn't bother me too much, but I cracked when I grabbed a can of pop out of the fridge, popped it open, took a sip, and nearly swallowed a cricket. I was officially terrified of those things, and I never drank pop out of a can again because I had no idea how a cricket got into a sealed pop can and survived that long.
Ew. That is why you remove any perishable foods from your fridge before you go on vacay.
Does she have any special someone?Hey! That wasn't on the form!
It is now....Ink! Argh!
Well... I guess that if I did have one I'd hope it was Mango. I mean, he's one of the only Jellybean Dragons I know, and he's been a great friend to me since the beginning. I love him to death, but I don't know if he'll ever think of me that way. One day he might, but for now it's just a friendship..
'Dawwwwwww :'D You have a boyfriend!Shut it. -_-
She likes the cold, Why?I've always loved the cold because I've lived in it and with it all my life. I mean, the cold gives me an adrenaline rush that just kicks up my senses another notch. I love the feel of the cold saturating through my fur, the feel of it whistling through my ears and nostrils. The cold is like a security blanket to me, and it will always be that way.
When she was three she lost something important to her, What was it, what happened?:Okay this one actually has right to be dramatic, and I don't think that Ink here has heard this story. As you probably know already, I love to write. When I was really little, I wrote little stories about pretty much everything I saw in a little notebook. It was nothing fancy... it was pretty much two pieces of cardboard with pages in between. My father, of course, was a serious character and all, and disapproved of my 'rebellious imagination'. So one day when I was playing outside and left my notebook unattended on a park bench he took it and burned it. I'm very glad I wasn't there to see it... my life was written on those pages. I can't just replace memories like I can a notebook. It wasn't really just about the notebook... I still remember some of what I wrote that was okay, I know that there was some amazing things in there and that maybe one day I will remember what they are and write a good story. Or maybe not a good story... maybe it will be an amazing story.
Aww, I feel so bad for you, Pai. That must have been so hard to have your father burn up so many of your childhood memories like that.Don't remind me.
She's now kind of a rebel teen...Why might that be?
Well, I'd have to say--Ink, let me handle this one.
My parents were rich dragons, yeah. They had it all. The cool cars, the cool, well, everything. They never acted like anything was wrong. It's as if they were wearing masks that hid all their dark emotions from the sight of me or anybody. I played along for a while, but I can't let those feeling just... sit there, you know? I wrote about them, yeah... but that was nothing compared to some of the things that I've felt, even though I could put a lot of emotion into my writing. At that point I wasn't the best writer and it didn't satisfy the anger boiling inside of me. I was so angry, and sad, and... confused. Why did all these anxieties get to me? I was scared... so scared. I would cry myself to sleep, hoping that the nightmares of my parents wearing masks and the loss of my books wouldn't come back, even though they always did. It was like I was a broken record, playing something that was reality over and over again until it was just a meaningless dream.
I know I shouldn't have, but I lashed out at my innocent parents one night, yelling at them for nothing, yelling at them for something they didn't do. I yelled at them about all the things that annoyed me about them and that I hated them. I did hate my father, that was true. But my mother loved me and I loved her more than anything.
I never knew that my own mother was a devil inside and my father an angel.
My mother yelled back and sent me to my room with no dinner. I woke up the next morning to find my door locked. I thought no dinner would be enough, but I guessed she was going to starve me until I apologized. I wasn't going to apologize, of course. I was too prideful and all the things I said about my mother that were lies became true.
I felt some irony here. I wanted those insults to be true, but I guess I have to be careful what I wish for.
For at least a day, though I can't remember because hunger blended the days together, I sat there, pouting, screaming, crying, dying. I thought i was going to. It was a long, long time before I saw a sign of hope, when a plate of food was slid under my door along with a book. I opened the book, and I saw that it was all my old writing. I looked on the last page that was not by me, and it said Run.
I knew it was from my father. He was probably going to be starved by my mother now to save me.
So I guess both my parents were wearing masks, my mother's a smile and my father's a stern frown. But behind each was sheer opposite.
So I ran.
W-was... that a story or real, Pai?It was real. I told you I'd had a hard past.
How'd she get those scars?The scars are from home. When me and my mother fought before I escaped, she slapped me numerous times, and two of her claws caught me sharply over the nose. It bled a lot, and before I ran, crying, I saw the look in her eyes, the look that is one of a mother watching her child be in pain. I looked at her with sympathy for a short moment, but it faded away as the pain grew stronger. After I met her gaze for the last time, I turned and ran without a word. Not exactly the best sob story, but there's not really any other way to put it in words.
HistoryI was born into a rich family that gave me everything I wanted. I always got my way, but under one unspoken condition. I always had to be the perfect little daughter my parents had always hoped for. My parents wear masks; the whole world does, just another layer of onion skin of the world we are today, fed by lies. When I lived with my family the lies and the truth blended together. The line between black and white, death and life, yin and yang was fuzzy and gray. I didn't know if my parents were being truthful or just feeding me another lie. I played along for a while without knowing it; I thought my mother was so nice and perfect and amazing, and at that time she was. My father was stoic, cold, icy even, but inside he was soft like a stuffed animal, but a real looking stuffed animal. He didn't like fake things.
Both my parents were true to this character until I started writing. It's as if when I wrote a new me was growing inside of me, and the words I would jot down in a notebook every day would nurture it. I had a, say, metaphorical egg inside of me, growing, and growing, and I could feel the life in it rustling inside, waiting for it to gain the strength to release itself from its bonds. I knew that a new me would open up once it did. I felt like a banana, with my peel just barely starting to come off, and there was a tiny bit of delicious anticipation that I could see but not get to.
On the day when my writing finally peeled off my skin, I awoke to find a whole new world with new possibilities stretched before me. I remember that night so sharply because it was one of those moments where any move you make could change your fate. It was just about three in the morning, and I woke up in a cold sweat, suddenly feeling something gut-deep. I started writing, and writing. I wrote without thought and my fingers skimmed over the many pieces of old notebook paper with the speed of a practiced, steady hand. I felt words form on my tongue that could never be spoken but had to be written. I yelled into my page, I yelled frantically into my page what I felt and what my mind had suddenly come up with.
Turns out my mind was in the mood for an epiphany, because when I looked down on my paper I saw many small stories that had come up, and then one word stood out the most.
Masks.
I wrote it at least seven times... then, it hit me. My mother, no matter how hard she tried to hide herself, was angry. I remember when I would get in trouble and she would yell at me as if I had blown up the country. I remember being so scared of her when she was angry, because she was unpredictable. One moment she would be yelling at me, and the next moment she'd compose herself as if what she'd done was a sin. She had lied to me, she had lied to me all this time and just because I was playing along, and wearing a mask too, I didn't notice.
I was just hoping that my mother could keep hers on long enough so that I could escape.
My father wore a mask, too, but it was a see-through one. He tried to act hardy and stoic, but he couldn't really pull it off and was always just a stuffed animal. I trusted him, at least.
The next morning I woke up to my mother looking down at me sternly.
"Morning, mum." I said, yawning.
"You're late for breakfast." She said nastily. Then she looked down and said, "I mean, you should cone down and eat, honey, your food will get cold." She smiled and got up so she could walk back downstairs.
I decided to test my theory, so I looked her in the eye and said, "What was all that about?"
My mom looked at me funny. "I have no idea what you're talking about." She said blankly.
So I was right. Go figure.
After that day I began asking my mom questions here and there to see if I could crack her mask. I took mine off a long time ago, but I just wanted my father to realize that she was a monster, so that he could, well, at least do something about it.
At one point she did crack and yell at me, and I ripped off her mask for her, but my father was still blind, groping around in this new world my mother had created.
I acted like I wasn't, but I was very afraid. I would cry myself to sleep, trying to find a light at the end of the tunnel, grasping at a vague feeling that it will be okay.
It never got okay, and that's what scared me. I knew I had to change something, just one factor in this, but what was it? I had to face my mom and then run away, but I had to prepare to rip the last bits of her mask from her face carefully. If I didn't do it right it could come stabbing back at me. I wasn't really so sure that my mother wouldn't pull any weapon on me just yet.
I took food when I could, waking up late at night to steal cereal boxes and cans of soup until I had a nicely full pack. I had a feeling that Paige was about to be released, and it wasn't going to be pretty. I put my bag, with some jewelry and belongings in it, on the roof outside my window. I slept restlessly that night, nervous. What was going to happen after I left was my final thought as I drifted into sleep.
The next morning I woke up late again and had an idea. There was this beautiful silver necklace that my mom owned that I could not see her keep. So I tiptoed into her bathroom and took it, fastening it around my neck. It was give her a reason to argue with me.
The argument passed fast and I can't really remember much. it was a screaming match, one that lasted at least twenty minutes and ended with me locked inside my room. What my mother had said had petrified me, and I didn't want to go.
I sat in my room for a few days, not daring to break into my food and water supply in my bags. I fingered that silver necklace over and over, thinking, waiting for something to happen. I realized that my only chance was to go.
So, I grabbed my bags from the roof, but as I was about to jump I realized that it was too high. Having a sudden spark of bravery, I scaled the side of the roof until i made it to my parent's room. I crawled in through the window and ran through the room, down the stairs, and burst into the kitchen. I got my scars there, with my mother slapping me and all, and then I ran out the door into a huge world that I intended to explore. I would tell you about my life on the road, but, well, that's a different story.
Paige, that is so sad. But that doesn't sound exactly like the questions.It really depends on the mindset you're in. I spoke it differently because just saying that is easier to explain.
Oh, I see.
Personality
I'm going to take this one for the team because it's going to be rather hard for Pai to describe her own personality.
Pai is a writer. She's very bright, but she doesn't trust anyone very easily. She doesn't like being around people very much and she doesn't like being touched very much. If you do happen to earn her trust she's a great friends that will always pull through for you in the end. She confident in herself; she's never had any self-esteem issues. She carries herself in a way people are envious of. She can be a bit cocky, though; she likes to think she's good at something and then when she tries it she's not. She accepts it, though, and doesn't try to fight the fact that stuff like dancing isn't her high point. She can be rather secretive, and she doesn't like herself being open to the whole world. She says when someone reveals a secret about her, she feels stripped and naked.
I guess that's probably how she feel right now.Not really, I mean, I trust the person who's adopting me out enough.

The Story of... When She Was Mistaken For a Guy (Bad Title is Bad) wrote:Era had been crouching, about to pounce on her unsuspecting friends. With a swift flick of her tail, she balanced herself, and then sprung. Both of her friends collapsed underneath her as she collided with their furry bodies. The three Jelly Bean Dragons broke out into fits of laughter, though Era's was deeper and heartier than the rest.
"You got us, Era!" her friend, Mango, chimed in between giggles.
"You bet I did!" Era exclaimed, puffing out her chest indignantly. "You guys didn't even suspect a thing!"
The Dragons' parents were watching them play quietly. One of Era's friend's mothers turned to Era's. "He sure is playful, isn't he?" she said. Era noticed the Dragon's mistake instantly. Her deep laughter quickly faded, and she frowned. "Am I really that... masculine?" she asked her two friends. They each looked to each other for a moment, then back to Era. They didn't answer for fear of hurting her feelings.
Era had tears in her eyes now, and her tail was sitting limply on the ground. She gave her fur a few embarrassed strokes with her paws. "I... I'm gonna go home now." she said with a whimper. Without waiting for her friends to say anything, she turned and ran past the humans and back towards her home. After a fit of crying, which was eventually ended by her mother's comfort, Era brushed her ragged fur and practiced various ways to appear more feminine. To her chagrin, it didn't work for too long, so she quit the ruse in her early teenage years.
My Name is Toxic Wave. Odd name but yeah.
My main Nickname is Toxy but my best friend Mango calls me "Wavey" No one else can call me Wavey apart from Mango.
NEVER EVER EVER call me "Tox" I hate that and you don't want to see me angry.
I AM Female, because I'm blue and my name isn't exactly like Angelina the Ballerina people assume i'm a boy.
How can I only say one? its happened to many times. I have learnt to live with it and just move on in life.
The fist time it happened is when I was 7 and living on the streets (i'm 18 now by the way) I was sat in a shop doorway when a child and their mother went by "LOOK AT THAT DOGGY." The Child said. In my mind I was trying to piece together how the heck I looked like a dog. But I still sat there just staring at the child. The mother bent down and patted my head "Good boy!" She cooed. So now I was a dog and a boy? It shocked me at first and I felt a bit self concious from then on thnking I was masculine (as a child I was more feminine as I am now)
Ok, ok I admit it. I have a fear of dogs. I got attacked by one when I was 3 and it left me scarred both mentally and physically. But shhh, no one else knows about this. Apart from Mango, who I tell everything to.
*Shudders* I HATE waffles because *starts to whimper* that was the last food I ate in a house before I ended up on the streets. They bring back guilt, regrets and sadness.
When I was three, this bird who was named "Featheria" (fev-ee-ree-a) gave me this piece of Silver, a human ring. It was beautiful it shone in the light. But then one night it was stormy and I was scared I could hear the trees bustling together and the howling that echoed through the town. I was so terrified. I hurriedly put my few belongings in my pouch and ran to a nearby empty warehouse. On the way the piece of Silver must of fallen out because I never saw it again.
Featheria gave me more silver over time but that first piece, I miss so much.
Featheria flew away for Winter every year (she never told me where she went) and everytime she came back. Apart from one, when I was 6 years old. She went South and never came back. I haven't seen her since. But I do sometimes think I can hear her by me. She's my guardian Angel.
For the majority of my life I have been living on the streets. To get food, even though I hated it. I had to shoplift. I would steal bread, fruit, chocolate, Vegetables anything just to keep me alive. I also stole non-food items too to give me something to do, Like pens and notebooks. It made me feel awful but it was what I needed to do to survive.
Featheria gave it all to me. I believe she was a... whats that bird again? Oh yeah, Magpie. She loved shiny things. She never revealed exactly where she got it from but I did hear a lot of sirens and loud noises whenever I walked past Andrew and Taylor Jewellers Which I heard is where Silver is kept.
As you know, I live on the streets and I have done since I was Three, At that age I should of been in my Mothers pouch not sleeping in the rubbish bin. I was a good baby but my parents couldn't look after me so they abandoned me. Tied me to a pole in the town centre I believe. Thats where Featheria found me. She spent days trying to cut through the rope. She finally did but was weak. She saved me. It brings a tear to my eye. I miss Featheria so much. She didn't deserve to die. We had three precious years together. I know she's with me. I just wish we could speak.
I own 4 silver necklaces, a golden ring, 3 silver bracelets and 3 sets of earrings. All from Featheria. They stay in my pouch all the time.
Featheria was away for the winter and I spent my night in a old Garbage/rubbish bin. Just as I got in I heard this strange noise and I felt something on my fur It was pitch black so I couldn't see. I got out of the bin and went underneath a street light down the road a little. Thats when I saw....the cricket. I screamed so loud and darted across the road being hooted at by 2-legged creatures in their cars. I was tiny and started to panic. I rolled over and over to get it off me. I killed it but the fright made my heart beat so fast that I passed out. It left me so scared. If I hear that noise at night now I have to go under a streetlight and I stay there all night.
For 15 years I have lived in the cold. I'm immune to it now. So I really don't mind it. I love playing in the cold snow as well. It gives me something to play with over the Winter (winter is a hard time for me because it reminds me of Featheria)Feeling the cool of the snow in my fur, I love it!!
The scars?..... well, I got them from the dog attack. The dog lunged at me thinking I was a fluffy toy and scratched my Muzzle. It hurt a lot. He also cut my paw, tail and hind leg. but all of those scars have healed well. The ones on my face though are better than they used to be but still sore. even after 15 years.
I was born on May 1st 1994 in a Woodland. I am not quite sure where. We lived in a broken down house made of twigs, leaves and broken wood. Which was tied up between 2 trees and it was very small. My parents spent most of the day out and about leaving me sleeping in the den. I never knew why they left me. Some times they were gone for days on end. I was just a newborn and was left to fend for myself. To get food, shelter everything. My size came in handy, as a baby I was smaller than the average bunny size. I was more overweight guinea pig size. Which came in handy when hiding from predators.
When they returned they would barely look at me. they fed me waffles and the odd bit of meat but I was a hinderance to them. They showed me no love or affection. It was what I knew. What i thought all parents were like.
It was only when I started Nursery aged 2 is when I realised something was different. I'd walk there myself with a few leaves on my back for camoflauge on the way. By now I was smaller bunny sized. When I walked in and sat on the carpet for storytime I'd notice children kissing their parents goodbye and hugging them. I wondered why my parents didn't do that with me.
I didn't enjoy nursery, I was an outsider. No one wanted to be friends with me. They all thought I was some weird unloved loner who spent all day moping around alone and would give them weirdness if they came close to me.
Aged 3 I returned home from nursery to find my parents waiting for me
"We have been offered the chance to go somewhere else. But we can't take you. Follow us and we will take you to town where someone else can look after you as we can't." My father ordered. I followed a long behind him and we reached a busy road. He sat me by a pole and tied me to it "Good luck in life." He said and we went away without even turning back.
Part of me was happy but I was scared. first of all I was tied to a pole and unable to move and I was about to face the world alone.
After being trapped for 5 hours, I was Parched and Starving. I sat watching the machines whizz past. I was so thirsty I would of drunk acid.
Finally a bird (Featheria) came and well you already know about the rope chewing part.
Able to move again I was overjoyed. I climbed through Rubbish bins and ate anything I could see, from Leftovers to cardboard. Every night Featheria would come back. for a few weeks I slept anywhere I could find which made Featheria finding me harder but then I found a derelict house which I decided to live in. The house was quite small but it made a nice shelter to sleep in.
I spent the daytime walking around town and gathering food and interesting things to keep in my den. The den made good shelter but it didn't have a roof and bricks were falling off the walls.
At winter time featheria would wave goodbye and fly away somewhere for the winter months. She would come back around the following February with a tan and a bikini (Lol, I'm kidding).
When I was 6 years old I was anxiously waiting Featherias arrival. Sat in my den with some Peanut butter and a biscuit taken out of the neighborus bin. I saw birds starting to appear in the distance. Groups of them flying over head. I waited all day, and the next and the next. The stragglers came and went and no flock had gone by for days. I waited all the way through February and through March, and april. When it reached May I had lost all hope. "She's gone." I sobbed. I didn't go to town for about 3 weeks. I survived on the food around the house. Which was Mainly grass and a few berries.
Near the end of may I decided enough was enough. No more watching my tears land on the brick floor of my den. I decided to move away from my den. It held to many memories. I said goodbye to it and headed into town as a 6 year old ready to face the world alone once again.
I changed where I slept every night, One night in a bin, another in a bush and even sometimes in a tree.
Aged 13 I decided i'd head back to the old derelict house and see if it was still live-in-able. I didn't realise how far i'd gone away from it. Four days later I arrived. It was even more crooked and broken than when I had been there. I went in through the hole in the wall and looked around. A sense of sadness hit me as it reminded me of my days with Featheria.
Looking around I noticed that everything had moved. Someone had been here. I tiptoed out to the secret hideaway spot that I slept in when I lived here. As I arrived at the spot I saw a piece of blue fur sticking out from the top of a cardboard box. I peered inside. A JBD that looked about my age was fast asleep. I had never seen another JBD before so I screamed in shock. The JBD jumped up and screamed as well. "OHMYGAWD." he yelled. "WHAT IS YOU. DON'T HURT ME."
After he calmed down we introduced ourselves. It turns out that he is called Mango. He has a loving human but likes to spend his days in the house so he can juggle his thoughts and sleep.
Mango came with me walking around the streets every day we became best friends. Turns out that he is only a year younger than me! He calls me "Wavey" and I call him "Mango". We always have a good laugh with each other. He is so understanding. Especially when I started crying about Featheria when we saw a dead bird. He is a great friend!
I have now known him for 5 years and we are inseperable. He introduced me to his other friends as well![]()
Adeo and Cheesecake. We sometimes go shopping together and they lend me money to buy sweets with!! they are great friends!

Mango wrote:Wavey is Really sweet and loving, Caring, Gentle, Helpful, Nice, Calm, Strong, Independent, Adorable and an awesome dragon!!
Every year, Adeo, Cheesecake, Mango and I all go out trick or treating around my home the neighbourhood. I love halloween so much. Getting nice, sweet, clean food makes it better than christmas!
This year, I am going trick or treating dressed as a..... wait for it......... KANGAROO!!! Kangaroo's are lean,mean fighting machines! They kick, Punch, box and they are vicious. Although they are very cute like me.
This is my outfit: It will be explained below:
Its awfully drawn, sorry about that
This is my Kangaroo costume
It is a zip-up with a hood. (Picture it as a bit like the Lion and tiger outfits in the store)
My tail is squished in to the tail part of the costumes and my ears are squished under the hood.
The hood has fluffy lining to keep me cosier whilst walking around.
The Costume is quite thick but is still lightweight. So it keeps me warm but itsn't too much weight to carry around with.
The Back legs are longer than my actual feet to give it a Kangaroo impression.
The pouch also shows its a kangaroo, although I already have a pouch.
It is furry which makes it look like a Kangaroo.
It comes with a Pumpkin Candy basket perfect for collecting up my sweets.
My feet are bare so I can still feel the ground and my costume won't get dirty. if I have to walk in Mud
This picture is of Cheesecake, Adeo, mango and I after a long night of film-watching at Mango's house. Mango was so tired he fell asleep so we all gathered around him and decided to take pictures. Adeo started patting his head as if he was a dog as Cheesecake giggled and I just stood there like a lemon.
