I am Dragon. They said I was perfect, but I'll put it to you this way. They killed them.

"You'll be okay, Bane. Don't worry." I heard my mother say.
"Stay here, don't get caught. Whatever happens." My father, Sentiao, said.
"What about you?"
"I'll leave. Aurora, stay with Bane."
"I can't leave you!"
"It'll be okay." He said as he stepped out into the light.
|WM|
"He left."
"I know, Bane."
"Is he coming back?" I asked. He couldn't be gone forever.
"No."
"I'm going after him."
"You can't. You're only nine moons old."
"I don't care. He's my father. I have to." I said, standing.
"Go if you must. They will come back for us."
"That's a risk I have to take." I replied.
|WM|
I started out on my journey the next day.
"Do you have to go?" My mother asked.
"He's my father. I've got no choice."
I left the den. They're going to say I can't. I know I can. I will.
|WM|
They day ended. Night was coming. Night means evil, I thought. Evil that could corrupt a wolf's mind. My older brother had his mind destroyed by it. I was only a moon old.
|WM|
"Please let him live." Aurora said. Footsteps rattled a tree. Aurora's breathing quickened. She ran. "There!" A tranquilizer dart hit her in the side.
|WM|
"Hey wolf!" I heard a voice say.
I turned. "Who are you?"
"I should be asking the same question."
"My name is Bane. Now who are you?" I asked.
"Matias." He replied.
|WM|
"What were you doing anyways? You're only how old?" He asked me as we continued.
"Nine moons."
"Wow. That's rough."
"I guess so, Matias."
"And your father left you?"
"And my mother."
"What's she like?"
"The prettiest wolf I ever saw. She's kind, and warm."
"Nothing like mine."
"Why? What's yours like?"
"Well for a start, she's dead."
"That's rough."
"Yeah, I guess. But she was always nipping me back home, and telling me to hunt for her."
"Stop." I said, suddenly.
"Why would we-" He paused.
"Oh. That's why."
"Well, let's go."
"I'm not going in there." Matias said.
"Do you want to see if your mother is in there?" I said.
"She's dead, Bane."
"She might not be."
"Fine. But if I die, I'm blaming you."
|WM|
We walked in. A smell caught in my nose, and it was horrible.
"That smells like deer scat!" Matias said.
"Keep you voice down."
"Fine. Where do you think-"
A voice shouted. Two strange things took me up.
"Let me go!"
"Bane!" a voice said. The voce was familiar.
"Aurora!" I screamed. My mother. Here.
"Stay strong, Bane." My father's voice said.
My eyes fluttered shut.
|WM|
I woke in a cold metal den. What is this, I thought.
"Bane. They killed her."
"Who?"
"They killed your mother, Bane." Sentiao said.
"Th-they, killed her?"
"Yes. They killed her."
A person with a white pelt came and took my father's den.
"Be strong, Bane." Was the last words I ever heard him say.
|WM|
"He's awake." A voice said. I stood up. Something was different. I looked around. My body was covered in scales. Scales? What is this?
"He looks like a dragon." A voice said.
"That will be his name. Number 31,415, Dragon."
A.N.: I know it's short for a one-shot. Don't put bad reviews on this for that okay?
