	Lightning spark was alone, she missed her parents deeply. She was also stuck with little food about one days worth left, And that was a few pieces of fruit for two meals. She was a growing mare and needed food. She wanted nothing more then to live and make her mother proud. 

She went outside to think she say on the edge of the cliff thinking not noticing the dragon silently gliding above. She sighed and looked at the stars as a shooting star, she wished that she could get down from the mountain. 
The dragon suddenly roared leaving lighting stunned she couldn't move she was terrified. It flew down at full speed as it roared. It was a dragons tails length away from her before it pulled up. A huge gust I wind blew over the side of the cliff. She fell and her hoof hooked on the edge for her dear life. 

The dragon circled above as lighting hung there. She stayed quiet as she hung on the edge of that cliff her heart rushing faster then a dragon. She gulped as the dragon flew away. She sighed in relief but as she did her hoof slipped. She tried to remain calm as she looked down but regretted doing so. She nearly screamed it was a long way down. Her breathing now fast and shaky as she tried to pull herself back up. She was weak from so little food she was unable to pull herself up all she ended up doing was sliding closer to a long fall. She once again was stuck this time on the side of a cliff.
