Dany was overexcited and put down a map of the island that Philippe had brought.

"We have the right to go to the island to collect samples and bring them back to Philippe's father.

We have a zodiac and in 5 minutes we can be there.

We will have peace and there are no fishermen in this zone."

Me: "But you are not afraid that this creature will attack you? Or that it runs away?"

Dany "It's a risk to take and if it's a dragon, it's worth communicating, right?"

"I think you'll end up killing your mom... It's too dangerous."

"We thought it would make you happy!"

"No, no, yes, I'm happy to do it but I care about you... I'm so afraid of losing you!"

"We know you're a good person, Sylvia..."

"And you, Jasmine, what do you think?"

"I'm going to stay here and watch the cameras... if something happens to you... To call for help."

"And what are these flour sacks for? Baked goods?"

Rudy: "No, to make casts..."

Dany: "You've just given me some ideas... We're going to buy some pastries and put them down..."

I was already salivating...I signalled to mom that we were going to go to the reserve every 4 of us. We were grown up and Mom knew I was as strong as an adult and trusted me.

"I know you'll be home late, but don't be reckless and if you stay there, it's together, okay?"

I loved camping and I was planning to surprise my friends. After gathering our stuff and 2 tents: one for the girls and one for the boys...

Me, I didn't care.

We took place on the zodiac moored at quay and Philippe started the engine and took the controls. The weather was nice and warm, and the sea gave a real refreshment.

The birds were flying low in the hope of scratching a small unwary fish on the surface. The island was huge and the closer we got, the smaller we felt.

Philippe guided the boat which was not too shaken and Dany caught the ring to attach the zodiac, our only means of returning other than swimming.

The boys looked at the surroundings to check that the zone was safe and without danger. Then, after having spotted a small spring, we decided to install the camp in the planned place, in order not to disturb the local fauna.

A little hour later, we were installed and we could see the coast and the city as if we could be there after only a few fathoms. Moreover, the warm water invited us to swim. I was having fun with my buddies and I was good. I really wanted to preserve this happiness and later offer it to my little Victoria.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

I also carried a bag of plaster and it was light as a feather for me and rather heavy for the boys. We crossed paths and bushes, animal trails and we finally arrived at a clear area, full of palm trees and shrubs and big fat plants, sharp agaves and we had to be careful not to get stung or skewered by these cacti.

Philippe spotted the camera and adjusted a few settings.

"Now we have infrared, it consumes more but I have a USB solar plate to recharge during the day."

Then Rudy stopped: "It looks like curdled blood. And they followed the route and a muddy area revealed traces. OUAHHH, look how big it is... Look at the size of the claw and the paw!

We poured the plaster into the hole and poured a little water as we went along. Philip: "I know it's tedious but if you want a good result, it's slow and you have no choice. In the meantime, we were going to adjust the other cameras and we came across huge carcasses eaten to the bone by flies.

"Ugh, what a smell! the dead fish". I was ashamed of the carnage but I could not say or do anything. After adjusting our cameras, we fixed several others and wires in the perimeter of the camp to protect us at night.

If a predator had the bad idea to visit us, we would be warned. We took photos and we put on our bathing suits.

Dany: "there is a small lake!.... It will be great."

We found the small lake and there was a waterfall, rocks around and a green jungle around. We soaked and it was great. The boys sank me ten times but I sank too! I laughed where a lot of girls would grumble after drinking the cup. But I laughed like a whale and we didn't see the time go by. We went back to the camp and we dried quickly with the hot air and we made a small campfire, not visible from the coast so as not to get into trouble. We cooked noodles, marshmallows, cheese and a lot of Frankfurt sausages that we had in boxes.It was good and it nourished them but for me, it was the aperitif! They had whetted my appetite! Jasmine called us on the phone. She said, "So what if she did?"

"You're going to wish you hadn't come... We swam in the lake and we all drank the cup. Moreover, Dany doesn't stop staring at me."

Jasmine: "And Rudy?"

"We had fun but we made a cast that we will take tomorrow morning when the plaster is hardened. We're looking forward to seeing what it is."

"Be careful, giant monitors still exist and they could attack you. They are more dangerous than crocodiles."

"Are you worried... Did your mom tell you not to bring the boys?"

"No, Sylvia. You know, you're my friends but I'm really scared and I'd only be in the way..."

"I understand, Jasmine."

"How about you, Sylvia? Aren't you afraid to be with three boys on a desert island?"

"HAHAHA, that's the last thing that scares me... First of all, I've never been afraid of a boy and secondly, my strength has nothing to envy them. And then... they're my friends, just because the moon appears, doesn't mean they're going to turn into a werewolf. WOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"Hahaha!"

Dany came from behind. "Hey, it's Jasmine! Hi... you don't know how much fun we're having! Too bad you're not here!"

Then I thought about it... mom thought I was with Jasmine... But I put my tent right next to them. Damn it! I didn't think..."

Jasmine, shh, okay, don't pick up if it's mom. She thinks you're with us."

Then we rinsed off by the spring and I changed in my tent. The boys were strangely quiet.Shit! they're staring at my shapes, the lamp behind me is projecting my silhouette on their tent!

I smile. And I'm not overly worried. The dragons are naked with their scales most of the time, sometimes a loincloth. I lay down and said,

"So... did you rinse your eyes out?"

"They giggled and whispered and then it was elbowing and then laughing..."

"Sometimes I wish I was a boy to laugh with you!"

We continued to tell bullshit and jokes to fall asleep and the night life got going. Owls, croaking frogs, geckos... and locusts beating the rhythm.In the middle of the night, the boys were asleep and I wanted to play a joke on them. I dived into the abyss of my tent and reappeared in the cave they hadn't spotted yet. I flew away and began to hunt.

I immediately spotted some kind of antelope and fell on it. The weight was enough to kill it and I quickly emptied it and began my feast. Then I rinsed myself in the lake and I went to the camp in front of the cameras and I arrived at the camp.

BOUM BOUM BOUM BOUM made my steps on the ground.

The tents were shaking and I started to growl like a predator and I started to sniff as if for the smell.

SNIFFF SNIFFF,GROWLLLLGRRRRRRRR RGRRRRRR.

I smelled like urine and I wanted to laugh all my soul. They had wet themselves.

My scales grazed the tent

Scratch

Scratch

SNIFFF

SNIFFF

GRRRRR

They saw my teeth huge and the slime and blood from my meal flowing and suddenly SLURP, I clicked my tongue as if to say... I am hungry.

Then, Philippe began to cry and shiver.

"Pitié.....Monsieur Dragon.....Pitié."

The children began to cry and weep.

A good lesson! I stepped forward and the tip of my claw went down the zipper and I saw 3 balls on the ground crying and choking.

Then I sniffed a good blow and of my snot plaqua Philippe

.Then, suddenly I turned around and my tail, like a whip slammed just above their head. Then, out of their sight, in a state of shock, I disappeared in darkness and resumed my role of Sylvia.

They rushed at me

"Sylvia... Sylvia... Are you okay? THE DRAGON came and sniffed at us... It was a close call. It's huge. It must be 50 meters high."

I rubbed my eyes. "Hey, what have you been smoking? What's wrong with waking up in the middle of the night?"

Dany jumped on me and put his hand over my mouth.

"Shh. He must still be there... He could bite us..."

I went back to sleep ignoring their fears. "

Hey, are you guys or are you assholes?"

"We thought he ate you..."

The camp was upside down. and we decided to all stay in the same tent. We hugged each other a little but in the morning, Dany slept with his arm on me and I left him like that until he woke up and the others laughed at him.
