Once upon a time, there was a dragon named Dillon who could dream about the future. Dillon did not breathe fire like other dragons. Every night, he went to sleep and saw adventures that could happen tomorrow.
One night, Dillon dreamed about a shiny treasure in a secret cave. This treasure was very special and could make everyone happy and safe. Dillon woke up and wanted to find this treasure because it was his dragon job.
Dillon got lost in a big forest while looking for the cave. Then, he met a squirrel named Sam who said he knew where the cave was. But the squirrel tricked Dillon and made him more lost. Dillon was sad but had a new idea. He sat down and dreamed again. The new dream showed him the cave was very close!
Dillon found the cave, and inside, he met another dragon named Daisy. Daisy had dreams about the treasure too. Together, they used their dreams to open the treasure. It made their land peaceful and everyone was happy. Dillon and Daisy learned that friends can solve problems together, and they had many more fun adventures.
