Lost

Chapter 10

I bolt awake with a shout. I'm covered in sweat. My heart is rapidly beating but starting to slow down as I try to slow my breathing. It was just a dream. I feel something move next to me and look over to find a worried Toothless starting at me. I pat his head and wince. My arm. I look over at my left arm and find it completely covered in red dark blood. The pain is starting to come back but it's not as bad as before I passed out. I realize a green liquid is mixed in with the blood around my arm but I can't tell where it's coming from. I pick up the water canteen next to me and poor the rest of the water onto my arm to wash away most of the blood. It burns as I rub the blood from my skin. I look more closely at the open wound and see a greenish purple liquid oozing out.
"What the heck?" I say aloud. I touch the stuff with my finger and bring it up to my nose to smell it. It smells like bloody dragon spit. I have Toothless smell it and watch as he quickly draws away from my hand. Dragons are very smart when it comes to certain smells. They know when to fly towards the smell of food and draw back away from the smell of poison. That strange dragon that attacked me must have had poison on its claw. That's probably it's defense weapon. I remember clearly that it didn't breathe fire at me like normal dragons so this is what protects it. Great. I've been poisoned by a dragon species I know nothing about.
I wrap my arm up with another section of my shirt, and I'm glad I still have my upper armor to cover me because I'm wearing half a shirt underneath. I look around and realize the sun is almost ready to set. I must have been out for at least 12 hours.
