Drake was a little taken off guard by the question, most people didn't take anytime to ask if he was full dragon and not a turned one. He remained silent for a moment, he didn't feel comfortable talking about his past with others even if they had worked together to stop a villainous threat to innocent lives. So he decided to make up a story.

"I'm an actual dragon, I don't remember where I came from, I just woke up one day in the mountains of the Midwest and found my way here. I don't know if I'm the last dragon or who my parents are" he lied to Danny. Lying didn't feel right to him and he hoped that it wouldn't ruin any trust between them keeping his past a secret.
