CHAPTER 1
It all began when I was six years old, my mother needed to fly around and look for something, she told me to stay and watch the gold while she was gone. While she was flying away, some guards from the Kingdom of Far, Far Away saw her coming and thought she was going to terrorize the kingdom. So they took out their weapons and tried to kill her. Some guards tried to stab her. While I was back at the cave, I heard a loud roar that almost sounded like a death roar, so I come running out of my cave heading toward the kingdom and what I have found was my mom, bleeding as if she was going die. I went toward her and asked, "Are you alright Mother?"
"No, I am hurt very bad. Guards have come and attacked me," She replied. "They thought I was terrorizing them."
"That's not true! I know you Mom; I know you're a nice mother! Oh no, please don't go!" I said. "I love you!"
I was crying as soon as she died, I was upset and I headed back to my cave and I cried some more. I didn't know why those guards at that kingdom would do that to her. She wasn't doing anything to harm them. So I became irate when that happened and I just wanted to get them back, but I'm not old enough to live on my own. So I started to pack all my things and started to find somewhere else to live. I had a human friend who lived around the area, her name was Matilda. She is a wizard and she was a very nice person. She knows all kinds of things and also knows about nature. So I went up to her home and told her everything that happened. She was shocked when she heard my story. "Those guards had no right to do that! She didn't do anything to them." She said. "That's outrageous!" I agreed to what she said and she has let me stay in her place.
The next morning, I woke up and still had thoughts about what happened to my mother. I wanted to die with my mom so I could see her, so what I wanted to do was to commit suicide so I could be with my mother. My first attempt was to fall off a cliff so, I went outside and I find a cliff up ahead of that was around 14 inches tall. I started heading out toward it and when I got there, I started to climb up on it and got up to the top, then I started to walk normally like nothing happened then I tripped and fell off the ledge. I sprained my leg very badly and lie there for a while. That attempt did not work. Matilda saw I what I was doing a cast a healing spell on me. "I understand you want to be with your mother, but killing yourself is not the way to solve your problem." She said. "Now please stay near the house."
I did what she said and I went to the house, when it became dark, I went to sleep for 3 hours then I woke up and started sneaking off to the cliff, then I went to edge and turned around. As I leaned back, I fell to the ground and lied there for a couple of hours. I hurt my back but I did not break any of my body parts so I went back to the house, and rested until morning. I woke up and played around the house for a while until I saw couple of trees. Without Matilda looking, I snuck up to those trees, I climbed up one of them and I flew over the top and tried to hang myself. I hung there for 4 hours and I fell off on my back and hurt myself, I still did not break anything. So I got up and looked around, I see a knife in front of me. I picked it up and I went look for a hiding place. I kept on walking and looking and then I bumped into a big rock. It was almost 9 inches tall and it was very wide. I hid behind the rock, and then I began to take the knife and started to aim it at my stomach. Then I stabbed myself with it and I layback letting it bleed. I lied there for a while but I am still alive. I don't know why I'm still living, I stabbed my self totally, or maybe I didn't aim it correctly. Then I wanted to try something different, So, I looked around and then I find a boulder up on the cliff I fell off earlier. I went to the top of the cliff and I push the boulder. It would not budge so I tried ramming it then it started rolling, then I hurried to the edge of the cliff to wait for it to fall on me I waited, and waited, and waited, then it finally fell down and hit my head. I lay down unconscious for 3 hours. I thought I was dead at this point but it happened to appear that I was still alive. So, I went back to the house. When I got back there, Matilda came up to me and said "Are you still at it? Please, I know it's hard for you to loose your mom at a very young age, which I know, but what is killing yourself going to do? I mean seriously, can't you accept things the way they are?"
"I just can't accept anything, I am just a young dragon and I can't stand it anymore!" I said.
"Calm down." She said, "as I said before, I know it's hard for you, But this is life. Some people lose their parents, too you know. I do feel bad for you, I know how you feel. I've been using my healing spell on you. I didn't want you to get hurt. I care for you Stephanie. You're the nicest dragon I have ever met. I don't want to lose you. Come on, get some sleep." She said
"Okay, I will." I replied.
So I went to my bed and I fell asleep for a while. I had a strange dream about my mother getting killed and I was trying to save her, but I fell down into a ditch. I try to fly back up, but I couldn't. A guard with a bow shot and arrow at my wing and I fell back in the ditch. I tried climbing back up and one other guard stabbed me and pushed me back down. I was bleeding everywhere in that ditch. I tried to get back up once again and then I found my mom dead! I was screaming my lungs out. Then I woke up and realized it was just a dream. I just wish that my mother were around. Anyway, I got up and looked around for a while, then I decided to go back to sleep. While sleeping, I was thinking taking revenge on my mother. Since the guards from the Kingdom of Far, Far Away killed my mother, why don't I get them back? But I was six years old then, I wanted wait until was older.
