Intro
"Come out child. It will not hurt as bad this time. You don't want your father to die do you? Who will take care of your mother then?" a man with dark hair said trying to coax a small child out of the shadows, using a soft gentle voice meant to sooth her fear. Slowly, the girl he called, came to him shaking, red tear tracks running down her small face. As soon as she was in rang her took her small arm pulling her to him pulling out a crystal knife. She whimpered and started to pull back slightly, her shaking increasing.
The man slashed her tiny wrist and pulled it to him and started to drink her blood in gulps. A burning pain made itself known in her side as she whimpered closing her eyes tightly in pain.
Another man came out of the shadows and started toward the girl reaching for her other wrist a knife in his hand. This man she knew was worse and pushed towards her father. Her father, seeing the other man pulled the child back and behind him. "Get your own old man!" he growled. "This one is of my blood!"
"Mine has grown to much and is starting to discover his power. I cannot feed off him and you know this Razvan! Now let me have some of her blood!" he rasped edging toward the girl again.
Razvan only push her back more and flashed his teeth in warning and freed his hands of her ready to fight the old man. While the two men started arguing she slowly inched back toward a ice wall. She licked her wound healing it and stopping the pain in her side and wrist.
Skyler? What is happening? A soft female voice asked her. Skyler grateful to hear her mothers calming voice, sent back images of her father and the man fighting in front of her, both very angry. "You forget who is more powerful Razvan! I can kill you anytime I want and you couldn't do anything about it!" the man screamed.
"You'd never kill me! You NEED me to kill the carpathians!" he sneered back.
Honey I want you to move to the edge of the ice wall in the room. Can you do that for me baby? Her mother asked in her head. Skyler sent back understanding and moved. Cover yourself baby, Razvan has forgot to hold my power in check, I'm going to free your brother and sister. I want you to escape with them. Skyler crouched down in a little corner covering her ears, making herself as small as she could.
A second later the sound of shattering ice roared though the cave as two half grown dragons burst into the room. One went straight to Skyler and lifted her to the mouth of the cave while the other attacked the men holding them back. Quick little sister! Run! Go to the city run as fast as you can we will hold them here! As soon as the words left her sisters mouth her brother gave a cry of pain. Go now Skyler! Her sister screamed pushing her with her head then dove back down to help her brother.
Skyler ran as fast as she could tripping slightly over the land to the closest town, never looking back.
