My instincts were screaming at me to be suspicious and I felt the dangerous aura that this person was giving off sitting at the table and staring at me.

"Tantante?"

"Come sit down, darling... It's Professor Kardon. He's proposing a solution to your problem."

I sat down to eat and greeted the teacher without touching him, out of fear and hid behind Eric.

I was afraid Tantante would have talked about our secrets, but no.

I had to protect my unborn brother and sister.

"Hello Emilie... Don't worry, I came as a friend

-

Gasp!

-

"I represent the scientific community and your case has not gone unnoticed. It's a good thing you're recognized as Emily and not as an "X specimen." Your rights are thus guaranteed.

But be careful to keep them because the State can lift such a right for a priority reason, such as the protection of your species."

Me: "I'm human!"

Kardon: "But I believe you... especially when you protest at a subject as complex as even humans wouldn't react.

Your problem is that several states would like to put you in a zoo to study you, clone you and have you reproduced. They only see the dragon in you"

I said, "Uncle, so much so, I'm afraid... Protect me."

Luc: "Professor, I think you're scaring her, she's just a child... I think this kind of information is an adult problem and shouldn't affect her"

Professor: "Your uncle is right, forgive me. You don't have to worry about it."

I hid behind Uncle Luke and Eric came to comfort me.

Kardon resumed with Luc:

"Your niece goes to the" fairy valley " all the time and it's just and fortunately the property of the University for the department I manage."

Luc: "As it is open to the public, is there a problem? She goes there to play and often buys ice cream at the fishery or sometimes brings back fish when she is fishing."

Kardon: "You fish?, how?" by looking at me.

Me: "With my claws or my teeth. And the fishermen applaud me because I never miss!

I also catch at the river, but it's more difficult.!

"Haven't you ever tried it with a hook?"

"Yes, but it was annoying to wait, so I gave the rod back and caught the fish in my hand."

Kardon: "Do you hunt too? What's your biggest catch?"

"10 lasagna!"

Everyone started laughing! I concentrated on the meal and swallowed my sausages with lots of mayonnaise and samurai sauce.

"Aye, it stings! Burp! And flames sprang up a little bit through my nose."

EMILY!

"Behave yourself! " Shouted Celine!

Eric rolled on the floor laughing.

"Are you coming? Are we going to play?"

The boring conversations, too little for me.

And we ran to the barn below, to my huge bathtub and played with battery-operated boats and a submarine.

As the laughter and screaming continued, Kardon and Luc continued their discussion.

"Sir, your niece is going to see another dragon, here are the pictures... It is immense. And it's an extremely dangerous animal!"

Here is a picture of a boar swallowed in one bite.

So the story of the slaughtered parents is true!"

Luke nodded.

Then he said: "Professor Kardon, you would have made an excellent inspector. But we're acting in the best interests of the kid and her brother. She is followed by a friend who knows the monster and has managed to survive him. He is a French doctor and worked in Nepal. But I have to arrest you, Professor. The great dragon is not an animal. We are animals in front of her.

Luc brought mines and ammunition. Do you see that? Where did this come from? What do you think?"

Kardon: "Traffickers? "

Luc: "I did the investigation myself and it was a team of elite Taliban soldiers who had stood up to the Americans for years. An entire troop slaughtered."

Here, if anything is done, it will be my men, the army and many innocent people who will die. And we don't know when she'll stop the massacre. If you want to send scientists, you send them to the slaughterhouse. The little one here guarantees peace and we found some kind of "pact" with the monster"

Kardon: "Did the little girl tell you how she killed them?"

Luke: "Yes! She closes her eyes and then they kill each other. You don't even have to see them no matter how far away. She speaks all languages perfectly and knows some missing writings. The rest of them were like puppets and threw themselves into her jaw. Entire armies and empires have passed through her stomach. No modern weapon, or poison can defeat her and she has resisted more than a thousand years of hunting. She knows technologies a thousand years more advanced and she teaches in Emilie."

Kardon: "Fascinating! But something doesn't add up. How Emily is part of your family and not staying with the dragon. It's her mother, isn't it?"

Luc: "Eric and his father stole the egg and killed a dragon by accident. She took revenge and found the trail back here!

Emily ended up in the egg, absorbed. The egg was not viable but Emily found herself in it and came out as you can see now. Her mother took her back by slaughtering the family present and Eric miraculously survived the massacre. Emilie's hell began then because she kept her personality and human memories. She tried to kill herself several times and the dragoness brought her back here by making a pact. The weekend for the dragon, the week at school. Holidays for the dragon...

We're not looking for contact, we pray that Emily will be happy and free one day."

Kardon: "What does she teach him? "

Luke: "Hunting, and defending oneself from hunters..."

Kardon: "Do you think I could talk to her mother?"

Luke: "Only Dr. Chlaks can approach her, and only him! It's a miracle he still have his head on his shoulders."

Kardon:" I am a behaviourist and I never use electronic stuff. Animals hate it. But I will be more careful."

Luc:" This is not the time to disturb the balance... it will be the start of the school year and the dragon has two more eggs that will hatch... Only Emily can approach them..."

Kardon: "then I will train Emilie for her higher education... even if she is a gigantic size"

Luke: "Thank you for your intentions. But what are you going to do with the valley?"

Kardon: "Nothing! Just to put the Valley of the Fairies as a nature reserve. Walkers will still be able to walk on the trails but no longer do off-piste, which is dangerous. Discretion is the best way to avoid accidents. But I would like Emilie to become my casual assistant. That is, she's going to be our eyes and ears herself. I think she's a brave and courageous child.

"

Luc: "We'll ask her"

SPLAF! "EMILY I AM THIRD!" Eric shouted by the small pool in the stable.

Eric was shooting his water gun at my boat and I was shooting water at his with my mouth. My profiled mouth to spit fire, could also spit water.

The red dragons hated water, but I didn't! I loved swimming and swimming. And I had found a way to escape it: underwater! She couldn't find me or detect me! But I kept that secret. It was a huge and exploitable weakness.

Tchak Tchak Tchak: Sinked!

Eric: "But you pull too hard! You'll break it!"

He jumped on me and I laughed, I let it happen and then he gave me a kiss and I kissed him back. POUAH, your kisses are drooling!..

Knock knock knock knock. Can we come in, kids?

I hid behind Eric.

Kardon: "Emily, I know you're afraid of being hurt, but I'm not here for that. I know your story and that you're going to visit your dragon mother... and that you're human inside."

I bowed my head, having nothing more to defend, defeated.

Kardon:" Don't be afraid, we won't bother you and no one will come and disrupt your life here. I'm a friend who wants to protect you. You're very human and you love Luc, Celine and your brother Eric, right?"

"Yes..."

Kardon: "You're going to have little brothers but you're going to take pictures of them, right? with what? your mobile phone? you're going to have bad memories then. As I am a teacher, I will teach you how to use a real professional camera, if you want, tomorrow I will give it to you and we will take pictures of animals and make pictures and threads like on TV. You can make money by reporting. You know, for example, you fly over a farmer's land and take pictures, you get paid for the pictures. They are used to find out if the field is sick, or infected and where to treat so as not to use too much poison so as not to pollute."

Me:" But that's great"

"Yes, there are many techniques for taking pictures of rabbits in their burrows, photographing bird's nests and even making underwater movies."

If you like biology, you will learn how to study, classify, and sort species, how they reproduce, and if they are in danger, how to protect and save them.

We treated dolphins and one of them had lost his tail by a propeller and we gave him a prosthesis. But we had to do a lot of calculations to put a plastic one on him. If you want, I can teach you all that, but the knowledge you acquire will also allow you to pursue other studies and other professions. You can even study yourself instead of others bothering you."

Me: "But that's great!"

Kardon: "I suggest you start tomorrow if you want so you can film the birth of your brothers and sisters and have good souvenir photos".

We waved goodbye and I spent the night excited to learn photography and animal photography.
