7. A SURPRISE

CHAPTER 7 A SURPRISE Drake blinked in the bright sunlight. They had landed on a cliff overlooking the sea. A strong wind blew, whipping Drake's hair into his eyes. In the sky, beautiful pink doves rode the winds. Val's eyes were wide. "This place isn't scary. It's beautiful!"

德雷克在明亮的阳光下眨了眨眼睛。 他们降落在俯瞰大海的悬崖上。 一阵强风吹来，把德雷克的头发吹到了眼睛里。 天空中，美丽的粉色鸽子乘风飞翔。 瓦尔睁大了眼睛。“这个地方并不可怕。 它是美丽的!”

Drake gazed around. The rocky cliff made it impossible to get down to the beach. An overgrown, jungle-like forest grew behind them. It led to a range of tall mountains. "It is beautiful, but not easy to get around," Drake remarked. "It's a good thing Worm has transporting powers. Worm, can you sense the baby dragons' parents?"

德雷克环顾四周。岩石峭壁使人无法下到海滩。 他们身后长着一片茂密的丛林。 它通向一系列高山。 德雷克说：“它很美，但不容易四处走动。” “幸好沃姆有传送的能力。 虫子，你能感觉到小龙的父母吗？”

Worm closed his eyes. No, he replied. But I do sense another dragon. One that is right here with us. "Worm says there's a dragon with us!" Drake announced, and as he spoke, a baby dragon became visible right in front of them! "Fig!" Val cried. "Did you hitch a ride with Worm?" "Fig?" Drake asked.

虫子闭上了眼睛。“不，”他回答。 但我确实感觉到另一条龙。 它就在我们身边。 “虫子说有条龙和我们在一起！”德雷克宣布，就在他说话的时候，一条小龙出现在他们面前！“图!”Val哭了。 “你和虫子搭顺风车了吗？”“无花果呢?”德雷克问道。

"This is the dragon that ate the figs in the Great Hall," Val replied. "I can tell because all of the fins around her face are solid blue-green. The others have some purple in their fins." Drake frowned. "I don't think we have time to bring her back to the castle now. We need to find her parents — and the fruit from the tree — before it's too late." Val nodded. "Don't worry," they said. "I will keep a close eye on Fig. I'll keep Fig — wait, Fig!" The baby dragon was running toward the cliff!

“这就是在大厅里吃无花果的那条龙。”瓦尔回答。 “我能看出来，因为她脸上所有的鳍都是蓝绿色的。 其他的鱼鳍里有些紫色。” 德雷克皱起了眉头。“我想我们现在没有时间把她带回城堡了。 我们必须找到她的父母——还有树上的果子——否则就太迟了。” 薇尔点了点头。“别担心，”他们说。 “我会密切关注菲格的。 我要留住菲格——等等，菲格！”小龙朝悬崖跑去了！
