Chapter 1 - Midnight Adventure: Dragons Secret

Chapter 1: The Challenge and the Champions

Not long ago, there was a school that offered a special trip to any student who ranked first in the entire school or city in 10th grade. Two brilliant students achieved this feat, scoring equal marks. They were best friends, and the trip was arranged for both of them. After receiving permission from their families, they set off on their journey with two teachers—one male and one female.

Chapter 2: Into the Forest

The journey began with excitement. They talked, ate, and enjoyed music during the 3 to 4-hour drive. When they arrived at their destination, they were surprised to find themselves at the edge of a deep forest. They grabbed their backpacks and began walking into the jungle. Their teachers guided them with survival tips and appropriate behavior for the trip. They walked for ten minutes, with the bus slowly following behind.

Eventually, they reached a round, grassy clearing surrounded by trees. They set up their tents, started a campfire, roasted meat, sang songs, played sports, and explored the forest a little—though the teachers warned them not to venture too far.

Chapter 3: Nightfall and Fear

As night fell, unease crept in with the sound of wolves howling. Fear took over, and the teachers decided to stay together in one tent, leaving the students in another. The howls grew louder as darkness deepened, and although terrified, the children eventually fell asleep. Later that night, the teachers quietly abandoned the children out of fear.

Chapter 4: Abandoned

The next morning, the boys woke to find the teachers and bus gone. The shock left them traumatized, but they had no choice but to survive. Thankfully, the teachers had left behind supplies and food. One boy, who had learned basic cooking from his mother, prepared their meals. Strange noises echoed from the forest, and they spent the rest of the day hiding and eating snacks.

Chapter 5: Growls in the Dark

That night, the wolf howls returned, louder than before. The boys hid under their blankets. One wolf came close to their tent, growling, but eventually moved on. The next morning, they cooked and tried to figure out what had happened. They explored a little but returned quickly after hearing odd sounds.

Chapter 6: The Battle in the Night

That night, the howls vanished, replaced by the sound of a bear approaching their tent. Just as the bear was about to attack, something incredible happened: a dragon appeared and fought the bear, eventually killing it and eating it. The boys fell asleep afterward.

Chapter 7: Meeting the Dragon

The next morning, they stepped outside and were shocked to see a dragon sleeping beside their tent. One boy warned the other not to run. The dragon opened its eyes and rose, alert. Its leg was injured, and it looked wary. The smarter boy cautiously approached, with his friend guiding him, and managed to pet the dragon. Surprisingly, the dragon enjoyed it. The other boy offered food. Though they tried to treat the dragon's wound, it resisted. Later, while it was asleep, they poured antiseptic on its leg. The dragon stirred and appeared ready to breathe fire but calmed when it saw them—and soon began to recover.

Chapter 8: A Growing Bond

As time passed, the dragon began hunting food and sharing it with the boys. Their bond deepened. One night, a threat approached from behind, but the dragon sensed it and saved the boy. They all took shelter in the tent together.

Chapter 9: The Cave of Secrets

The next morning, the dragon seemed upset and led the boys to a large cave—his home. Inside, the boys discovered clues: dragons had left this place due to a greater threat, and this young dragon had been left behind, unable to fly. They pieced together the mystery.

Chapter 10: The Ancient Threat

They packed their bags and insisted on riding the dragon's back to return home. At first, he refused, shaking his head. But when a strange, fast-moving creature approached—the feared Qilin from ancient Chinese mythology—the dragon threw them on his back and took flight. They narrowly escaped.

Chapter 11: The Journey Home

During their flight, they saw a wolf den and breathtaking landscapes. The journey to the dragon's new home took a day, but at one point, the dragon unleashed a powerful burst of speed—like lightning—though it seemed he could only use this ability briefly.

When they arrived, they were welcomed by other dragons. At first, the others were aggressive, but their dragon friend calmed them. The boys spent two wonderful days in this hidden paradise, playing with young dragons. Eventually, the dragon offered to take them home. Through gestures, he asked where they lived, and flew them back, warning them not to tell anyone.

Chapter 12: A Promise and a Farewell

He landed on the road near their homes at midnight. The boys said goodbye and promised to keep his secret. Their teachers were expelled from the school for abandoning them. From that day on, the dragon visited them weekly, and every month, he took them back to his home.
