Dragon Hive

by Brian Eckhoff

The year is 3001 and there is a new arrival on the transport ship Sunflower. It is a little girl only six years old claiming she is a Dragon... Her name is Athena and though she appears to be a sweet and innocent child, she holds secrets that could affect the fate of Mankind and Dragons alike. She informs the crew that Dragons live in a Hive similar to bees and that her father is the Hive King. He has high expectations for Athena, even though she is the smallest Dragon ever to be born in his Hive. The responsibilities are more than she can bear... therefore she escapes from the Hive in hopes of finding refuge on the Sunflower.
