Hi this is my first story so please be nice with your reviews.

A dragons flame

Prologue

Just outside of Camelot, a seven year old girl is with her dad walking next to a river. "You are strong and will do great good even if it doesn't seem like it." He said proudly.

"How do you know?" the girl responded.

"Because The Dragon told me." he whispered "Can you remember the story of The Dragon?"

"Tell me again!" the girl said excitedly.

"Well your mother and I were walking down this very road..." he started.

When he'd finished telling the story the dad and girl started to walk back to Camelot. When they got there her father opened a secret compartment in a chest he had. In it was a sword and some rolled up paper that he'd never let her see. He pulled the sword out and they watched the dragon on the blade move around like it was at home. "Mary," He spoke with sadness in his voice "We have to move a way from Camelot."

"Why?" The girl asked still looking at the blade.

"We're not safe here" He put the sword back in the chest and handed a bag to Mary "Put all your things in there." He then started to pack his belongings in a different bag. She walked to her room confused but she knew that if she asked about it she'd make it worse.

Early the next morning Mary and her father got on a carriage a left. As they got out of Camelot Mary watched the castle getting smaller. When it was out of sight she put her head on her fathers lap. Her father stroked her hair

"Every thing will be fine. I've made sure of that. We're going to stay with your aunt." Mary fell asleep on her father.

Mary woke up when the carriage stopped "Dad what's going on?" Mary asked.

"Probably just a fallen down tree nothing to worry about." Her father answered. "Stay here while I check." her father left the carriage. She sat there for what felt like an age. All she could hear was angry mumbling. Suddenly her father started shouting a the driver "DRIVE, leave me and just drive! Take my little girl to safety!"

Mary looked back at her dad and yelled "No, dad!"

"Protect the sword and never for get the story I told you! It has a much greater meaning!"
