The Mouse & The Derg

Inspired by MouseThyme

It was winter. A mouse was shivering, hungry because she had been chased from her home by a tom cat. She was almost frozen solid when the dragon hatchling found her. Being a very compassionate derg he hauled her to his nest in a hollow of a pine tree. He fed and cared for her until the winter was over. This was how they became the best of friends.
