 "Squawk!"

"Oh no! Not again. Stop getting into things! This is expensive. Argh!" I yelled at the small animal, "you're such a bad dragon. Too bad that I'm stuck with you."

Wait. Hold on. Let me explain how I got here. 

My names Norina Riley. I'm 19, and I was walking in the woods near my home.

 I live out in the country at my family farm. I had just had a fight with my boyfriend. We've been having problems lately. He doesn't agree with what I'm studying to become, but at least I have an idea.

 I was flustered with him. I want to be a zookeeper. I love animals. I was thinking about what happened when I tripped on a tree root. 

Then I saw this beautiful rock. Of course I didn't know it would put me in this situation. 

I took it home and set it by the fireplace. I forgot about it for a few days.

I came back from my boyfriends house at about 12:30 and my apartment is trashed. 

I thought I got burglarized but then I heard a noise in the kitchen. I went and got my baseball bat from my bedroom, then went to the kitchen. 

I saw a small bird-like creature. It was so cute! I decided to keep it.

 However, I didn't know that would be the end of my normal life.

 I have had Sanaa for four years.

"Let's go little guy. We need to see if you can fly yet." I told the little creature.

 He's a nuisance, but we have become best friends since I first saw him.
