You entered the large cave feeling brave, or is it just you being stupid? Either way you made your way forward into the cave, and as the darkness grew the walls were lit up by torches for light.
You looked around for anything interesting but couldn’t find anything, until you heard an odd yapping sound and it sounded like a scream. "Get away from me!" It screamed and suddenly you saw four quadruped figures rush past you, the one ahead was small and almost like a small dog sized, but the others were larger, as large as horses almost and they were pursuing the smaller creature.
You immediately decided to see what was happening so you ran after them as well, making your way back through the cave until you saw them all again. There was three large dragon’s, all male and all red, and they were surrounding a small hatchling and growling at it. You could tell that it was a hatchling because it was small, with underdeveloped wings that were tiny compared to its body, while the others had larger wings than their bodies.
"You annoying little welp! Why won’t you just die!?" One of the larger dragons growled dragging its claws on the ground. That dragon had green scales, and a few scars across its muzzle.
"I....I was just trying to s....survive....p...please don’t." The hatchling whimpered and back up against a large boulder.
"You trespassed in our cave! OUR CAVE!!! We told you specifically not to and you did anyways!!!" Another dragon growled and it was fully red with crimson scales.
"Do you not understand what we consider ours welp!? Your ignorance will be your demise if that’s true!" The third dragon growled at the hatchling and it winced, and you could tell that this was going to be it for the little thing if you didn’t do anything.
There were three others though, but you felt like you had to take the risk here. You then saw the green dragon raise its claw and you immediately ran in front of it to shield the small dragon. The green dragon paused and glared at you then growled in a low and slightly annoyed tone,"A human..."
"A human shielding a welp, how....noble, but stupid." The red dragon hissed
"Get out of the way human, this welp stole meat from our kills and it must pay for its transgressions." The yellow dragon snarled
"It’s just a kid though! Doesn’t that suggest anything to you?! He may not have had any choice!!" You yelled and the green dragon snarled,"That welp is an orphan and a thief! Where’s the sense of justice that you humans have!?"
The red dragon then got up on its him legs to make itself look larger and it growled,"Human, this is your last opportunity, either join us, or perish here!"
You paused looking around and noticed a small opening for escape, but then again you glanced down at the hatchling and saw it’s blue scales and a bleeding claw gash on its hind leg. You would have to carry it if you wanted to save it, and also outrun the three larger dragons. However if you joined them you could live, but the hatchling would die.
