It's impossible ... Fear awakens me completely, the adrenaline starts to flow and my heart starts beating fast, I attach myself to a wall and start groping while my sight begins to adapt to the dark, watching straight in front of me on the other side of the room I started noticing various details, on the ground I could see something like a ... TAIL! ??!, it's completely still, further to the left I can see something that looks like skin, up above I can barely see anything shiny like metal, they look like... Swords!?

A giant all-black reptile-like beast lay completely still on the ground on the opposite side of the cave,

Cautiously I approached the beast, it's still bleeding, the "skin" I saw before was completely pierced, they look like wings, I gently move the wing to reveal the body and legs of the creature, the head and long neck were facing the wall, its front legs are very similar to human hands, 5 fingers with opposable thumbs and claws, it seems that the creature is not breathing, but this is not a confirmation of its death,

I bowed and took the left front paw of the creature, it was completely cold, I turned it towards the palm and tried to take the pulse, the heart… .. IT BEATS!?!? !!

I broke away and sat down on the ground observing horrified, It was beating, slowly, but it was beating! So, it's still alive ... ..

What should I do now? Stuck in a cave with a beast I don't know, what if it wakes up? Would it kill me? More than likely,

escape is out of the question, I could run but the adrenaline would not continue to flow for long and in a short time I would be lying on the ground with no more strength in my body to act as food for the beasts.

Even giving it the coup de grace does not seem feasible to me, both for my emotional and physical state, I would not have the strength to withstand such a blow.

I could wait for the sun to rise, but even if I had to hold out until then, what could I do? I would be point and over.

What if…. I'd tame it? It seems a crazy idea but… it's the most feasible one, after all I still have a lot of those "miraculous" medicines, and the bandages are not lacking, besides I don't think it can do who knows what, it's hurt quite badly.

DECIDED!

I got up, went to the wall of the cave and started tearing some vines now visible because they were illuminated by the moon, I threw everything I had found in the center of the cave, took two stones and started bumping them into each other, nothing, two minutes had passed and I couldn't even make sparks, patience, I got up defeated, the moonlight would have been enough,

I sat next to the creature, placed all the medical equipment I was wearing on the ground and started with the wings, as for the squirrel, I soaked the bandages with that substance contained inside the bottles and began to bandage the wings of the creature, they were completely pierced, perhaps not even the medicine would have been enough, passing to the body, the back of the beast was completely slaughtered by swords that pierced it, it was more than likely that he clashed with human beings ... Is this a good sign? I leaned onto the creature's arm and climbed on its back, took a sword firmly and began to pull with all of myself,

One two.... Three…. HAAAAAa!

Because of the shot I completely lost my balance and risked falling, however the sword came completely out of the flesh making the beast bleed, I didn't have time to recover that a cry of pain stunned me,

The beast had awakened ...

He got up and hitted me with its tail throwing me across the cave, with such force that the wall behind me chipped, how did I survive something like that?

The beast stood on two legs, furious, its red eyes peering down at me, some of its scales on his face and the back of its four horns had begun to glow with a strong purple color, it was trying to intimidate, like a peacock opening its tail to appear bigger, His mouth opened wide revealing a double row of teeth, with every breath from his mouth and nose came out black flames accompanied by smoke, panicked by the situation I threw myself on all fours and threw every sort of equipment I had, I had to look weak and harmless, it was the only way to avoid being roasted, the beast looked confused, it approached the bandages and medicines and sniffed them with a halo of curiosity, then got up and began to analyze its wings, in an instant it turned to me confused, the beast got on all fours and tried to get closer to me, however, the wound on his back suddenly ripped open, making it fell to the ground in pain.

I quickly took a bandage from the ground and threw myself on the creature applying it to the open and bleeding wound, the creature looked at me confused, brought its muzzle close to me, and began to growl, at this point I was too tired to play, impassive I turned and I looked it in the eyes, seconds passed, we looked at each other intensely. Eventually, the beast decided to give up, understood my intentions he threw himself on the ground giving me his back and allowing me to continue, the operation lasted for at least half an hour, remove a sword and put on a bandage, take off a sword and put on a bandage, while all this the creature still continued to silently observe me, in the end while I was bandaging the last wound a sudden blow made me pass out, after a whole day without eating, drinking or resting tiredness made me collapse completely.
