(flashback)

Urgent voices." Rune hide quickly. We don't want them to find you."

"Why not?"

"Because dear it. it's very important that they don't find you. They are dangerous and would hurt you. I know, pretend that you are playing hide and seek with them. Don't let them find you or you have to be it okay."

"Okay mommy."

"That's my baby, now hide and don't come out no matter what you hear okay. Even if you hear screams. Don't even come out if mommy or daddy asks you to. Just stay hidden!"

" When will I be able to come out mommy."

" When your mark stops glowing then you can come out. Go straight to Tintlet's house and knock three times. They will let you in. Now hide! They're coming."

Minuets later are the sounds of metal on metal, and metal on flesh. I strain trying to hear my mother and father in the uproar but it is impossible. Suddenly all is quiet. Then I hear my mother's scream of pain and my father's roar of defiance. Then I hear another voice a new and strange voice that I know I will remember forever. It is full of ice and malice.

" Where is the child?"

"What child?" my father asks " There is no child here, only me and my wife."

"Is that so!" It wasn't a question but a statement. " I seem to remember seeing a piece of child's clothing on the floor."

" No!" I hear a sickening thud as my father impales himself against this unknown enemy's sword. My mother screams again. Then quietly, so quietly that I almost missed it my mother says " The child will live to destroy you. That I promise you. It was prophesized at his birth when the marking first appeared. He will live to destroy you and rebuild the world as the prophesy says."

There was a scream then. So inhuman that it could only have come from the unknown enemy. Then a thud as my mother's body hit the ground.

(end flashback)

I woke up sweating and breathing hard. For the second night in a row I was dreaming about my parent's death. I remembered that after I left my hiding place I surveyed the damage. Demon bodies were strewn all over the ground and right in the midst of it all were my parent's bodies. Both of them were covered in blood. I ran over to them and saw that my mother was still breathing a tiny bit. I leaned close to. Close enough to hear her last whispered words.

"Chase the shadows, and steal the sun, thy destiny is begun."

They were the words of an old prophesy long ago foretold, and not yet fulfilled. I mulled them over in my mind trying to figure them out. With no luck.

Figuring that I would get no sleep I got out of bed and went to my window. My room is four stories up in the dragon castle. I don't mind. I decided to climb up to the roof and watch the rest of the day unfold.

As always before leaving the sanctuary of my room I covered up the mark on my arm. I don't think it's dangerous to have it exposed in the Dragon Castle but one can never be to prepared. Besides I preferred keeping it a secret from the others. Especially Thatz and Rath. When Rath gets drunk he'll tell you everything he knows, and Thatz will sell anything for the right price.

As I climbed out the window I wondered how they were doing. I knew they had stayed up pretty late last night. I decided to annoy them for once instead of it being the other way around.

I quietly crawled over to Rath's window in order to surprise him. Right above his room I stopped in order to plan my next move. That's when I heard the voice of Thatz in the room. Perfect I could get both in one shot. Then I stopped. I had heard my name in their conversation so I crept closer to the window in order to hear better. Yes, they were discussing me. Just as I was about to surprise them by jumping into the room I noticed a shadow looming over me. I looked up just in time to see.
