Bronwen POV

It was her I was sure of it as I watch the dragon take off into the starry night blue sky with her, but she was different in some way; she was human for one, from the

sound of her fast beating heart that pumped blood through her veins, and those eyes were not the same bright green I remember, but instead an un-normal light

green/brown that still held that glow to it I remember! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw her at first as I heard her scream at my brother, calling him a bastard! The

thought made me laugh, with Marlin used to never being talked or struck back by a human as she did to him, he needed it though! But of course it backed fired and

from his rage he hurt her, the woman that I've been in love with secretly for hundreds of years, and that awoken feelings in me that I have never felt towards Marlin at

that moment. I wanted to kill him, to tear him apart from limb to limp so he could feel my rage! It was the monster in me that wanted his blood, but the love for my

brother stopped me from actually doing it. It didn't mean that if he did lay another hand on her I wouldn't hesitate from ripping it off of course though! He questioned

me as I stood in between them, protecting her from him, and I just replied "You have no idea", in which he definitely did not! He had no idea what powerful forces he

was messing with…even if she did appeared human she was anything than just a normal one, but more! That necklace proved that point. It held some kind of power I

could feel as it glowed blindly, but I did not know what it meant exactly! And of course when the dragon came to her aid I knew the reason for their return then, it was

all her! The dragons were always loyal to the goddess Elizabeth and she blessed them with imaginable powers and gifts that we could only wish to have and before she

disappeared she promised to return, she didn't say how. After they left, I told Marlin to lead the men back home and that I will catch up with them in a few, I needed

answers! Marlin looked at me with suspicion and was about to question me when I told him "Later, I promise!" He stood there staring at me with observing eyes for a

minute before nodding his head and disappearing into the night with the others. I hid in the shadows then when I heard someone running in my direction and stopped in

front of a form lying on the ground and fell to his knees… realizing it was the man, Marcus I believe she called out too, that Marlin killed snapping his neck! "No… father!"

the man on his knees said in a low heartbroken voice. He bowed his head down while putting his hands on his fathers' face breathing heavy. Two other men, one

younger while the other holding his right arm to his chest, came up running behind him and then faltered their steps when they came into view of the form on the

ground. The younger one with the long brown hair bent his legs down slowly next to the other man on his knees and grabbed his shoulders while gazing at Marcus. "I'm

sorry Luke, Chris. I'm so sorry. He was a good man!" the man standing said in an apologizing low voice. The man on his knees then sighed loudly and stood back up. He

looked towards him and nodded his head once saying a sadly "Thank you!" He was just about to walk off until the man still holding his arm said, "Wait Luke! Where is

Melanie? Did you find her, alive or…?" he asked anxiously, his voice quivering at the end. The man Luke shook his head. "I'm sorry Terry! She was taken by the

forgotten…or you could say dragon now since they're back! I do not know what will become of her, they were never really violent creatures from the stories told, only

when they have a reason to be, but I really do not know! You should…you should know there is a possibility that you might not see her again since we don't know what

they are up too! But they might not harm her since she is…different as well. We can only hope and pray!" he said with remorse turning his eyes down while putting his

hand on Terry's shoulder in sympathy. Terry stared at him with a blank expression on his face then squeezed his eyes shut tightly. "No…this is my entire fault! I, I

should…should have been…" he breathed out, shakily. Luke hand pushed and held onto Terry good shoulder, like making sure he had a hold of him just in case he might

fall to pieces or something, and so that he was walking next to him. "Come on man, let's get that arm checked out and healed." They soon disappeared down the road

with Chris walking behind them. So her name's Melanie now, Beautiful! I smugly thought to myself in a daze as I disappeared into the darkness, heading home.

Once I stepped foot into my study, I was ambushed by my brother and mother who were already in there waiting for my return. Marlin was the first to start, "What the

hell Bron? What's going on? Why did you protect her from me? There had to be a really good reason because she's just a human!" I looked at him as he talked then

turned my eyes to mother, who was staring at me with questioning and understanding eyes. She probably was proud of me right now for actually helping out someone

and not hurting or killing them since she did not agree with this war and killing! I knew Marlin already told her what all happened so that saved me the trouble of

explaining it to her. I sighed loudly and walked over to my chair behind my desk and set. Once I told them my thoughts, the knowledge of Melanie, aka Elizabeth will be

out in the open, but I had to tell them, they would eventually find out soon! "Yes I do as a matter of fact; did you not see the dragon brother? The girl's necklace? Her?

She is no normal human Marlin! She is the reason for their return and what the dragon have been waiting for! And she looks exactly like…Elizabeth!" And I'm in love

with her and have been for hundreds of years! I thought. "What! What did you say son?" mother asked in surprise. I knew that name would draw her attention once I

said it. "I believe…that Elizabeth prophecy of her return is now upon us and that this woman, Melanie I learned when I stayed behind after Marlin and the men left, is

Elizabeth! And that we are in for a lot of surprises from her!"

So what do ya think?:) Next chapter you will find out more about what happened to Elizabeth after she left and many more! So stay tuned:)
