The Last Clutch of Emberfall
fantasy◐ Teen5 contributors · 3 paragraphs deep
Wren panicked. If the egg hatched, the queen would blame him. He shoved it into the cold shadow under a boulder, hoping the chill would slow it down. Then he sat and watched, heart pounding, begging the cracking to stop.
The cold did nothing. The egg cracked harder, and a tiny dragon burst free right there in the dirt. It shook off the chill, looked up at Wren, and chirped. He couldn't help it. He scooped the little thing up and held it close.

A possible continuation
Wren tore up the queen's order and threw the pieces over the cliff. He would not serve people who treated a living wonder like a payment. With the dragon on his shoulder, he walked off the road and into a new life of his own.
