The blood within me

Part 1

Shyvana grew up to be a simple girl, helping her mother in the fields everyday, going into town and buying daily necessities. She had waist long red hair with purple tips framing her face with to longer bangs falling on of her shoulders, even though she was in the sun most of the day her skin was still quite pale… but not as pale as it was when she was born. She was currently eight years old smiling like no tomorrow, she had friends in the village and was just returning home that day. She received love from her mother more than she could take from any person. She accepted to the fact that her mother being alone and her father was no where to be found, it saddened her to think her father abandoned them although her mother says it was for their own safety Shyvana didn't believe any of it. She went to bed like any other day, this repeated for another few months.

But on one fateful day everything was going to change… panic spread through the town as a dragon landed, the people hiding behind the guards who raced up to meet the dragon. The dragon only said one thing… "Bring me the girl".

This caused a uproar with all the villagers yelling for Shyvana to be brought to the dragon. Shyvana was the only girl to be born in the village; she was dragged away from buying items from the village and towards the dragon. She was surprised when she saw the dragon; her normally bored eyes sparkled with curiosity. Once the dragon saw Shyvana his eyes darkened with malicious intent, when he raised his front claw it had everyone on edge. In a dark and angry voice he said "Die! Half-breed!" bringing his claw down on Shyvana, she was frozen in place with fear and clenched her eyes shut when the claw was coming. Suddenly his movement stopped and Shyvana looked up, eyes widening in terror to see that the claw had gone through one of the guards, said guard's blood was splattered over her face. She screamed when the dead body fell on her.

She pushed the body off just as fast as it came… she had just seen more of the various guards die leaving her and the villagers alone. There was an extended silence before one of the villagers cracked, a middle aged woman screamed and this caused the villagers to panic who quickly started to look like a bunch of panicking sheep running away from a wolf. Shyvana sat there scared out of her mind, her mind playing back the claw prodding out of the back of the guard. She didn't notice the dragon advancing for her, when the shadow loomed over her she regained her senses. Rolling out from under the dragon's foot she quickly dashed away towards the village, she heard the dragon roar in outrage and chase after her. Its steps were causing miniature earthquakes its roar was deafening and Shyvana could feel the heat of the fire that the dragon was breathing on her back.

Shyvana felt her emotions swell up in fear as she ran towards her house to get her mother out of the village; her fears were absolute as she ran towards her house to see her mother out on the ranch. Her blond hair was tied in a low ponytail, her hands and feet dirty with grime as she ploughed the earth for vegetables that were going to be planted in the next day or two. Her mother glanced up and was happy to see Shyvana but when she saw the terrified look on Shyvana's face she looked behind and saw the reason. After grabbing Shyvana's hand she ran along the farm avoiding the dragon and entered into the surrounding forest. Crops that were long forgotten were destroyed as the dragon ran after them in rage and annimosity.

The mother and daughter ran across the fields trying to escape impending doom as the dragon stormed after them, while running they seemed to have left the dragon behind. They stopped to rest for a while looking around for a place to hide they didn't notice they had stopped too close and the dragon was now leaning over the rocks. It's mouth was open as drool poured out of it, Shyvana's mother now frozen right under the dragon. She mouthed run to her daughter… Shyvana violently shook her head to say no, Her mother wouldn't have that as an answer so she yelled at the dragon to grab its attention. She ran towards the other direction of the bunker the villagers had made incase of an attack. Shyvana had tears in her eyes when she heard but a whisper of her mother's voice.

"I Love you" she said, turning around Shyvana ran towards the bunker sadness welling up inside her when she saw only half of the villagers in the bunker. She sat in a dark corner hugging her knee's to her chest sobbing as she slowly cried herself to sleep.
