Part I:
Prologue:
A Change of Heart
I rolled onto my side, trying to fall back asleep, when I felt myself bump into something. Jolting awake, I opened my eyes and looked around. I was in a forest; I'd bumped into a log with my left-front leg...
I was about to turn over and fall asleep again, when I realized: ~Wait... leg?!~ I looked down in shock at the leg where my left arm should've been: a scaly, emerald-green leg and paw with four white, razor-sharp, slightly-serrated claws, one at the end of each toe. Confused, I tried standing up on my hindlegs... and fell over backwards.
As I squirmed, trying to get up, I could see similar changes had occured to my hindlegs. A long, emerald-green, reptilian tail unfurled from beneath me as I writhed and flopped around. As I finally managed to roll to my feet, on all fours this time, I could see two lavender, batlike wings folded across my emerald back.
I stood there, on all fours, stunned, trying to contemplate what had happened to me. *Am I dreaming?~ I wondered silently, too scared to try to talk. As my eyes scanned the clearing I was in, I saw that the edges were thick with trees, with the exception of a small path between the trees to one side. Then I spotted a small stream near the boundary of the clearing. I ran towards it, desperate to see my reflection in the water, to see if it was true.
I bent down low to the ground and gazed into the stream... the long face of a young, handsome green dragon stared back at me. I tried to cry out in surprise, but what came out was a dragon's roar! ~I've been turned into a dragon!~ I used both of my forepaws to splash water on my face, desperately trying to wake myself up... but when I looked again, I was still a dragon!
