Introduction: AMAHL KWENTHIWE

Lucy..!

Lucy, wake up!

Lucy!

They need yo- Ahhhhhh!

LUCY WAKE UP!

A young, blonde girl pushed herself up from the cushions on her bed. Sweat visibly hung off her skin and clothes. She kept getting the same nightmare- and the farthest she's gotten into it before the voice cries out in agony is the first initial in their name- M. The young girl finally remembered- she were going to try to run away. She threw the covers off viciously, but silently. She rushed to her drawers and picked out the only non-dress clothes, which were not many, and shoved them in her big backpack. She tip-toed to the bathroom and picked out all the necessary toiletries.

She sprinted out of the bathroom and opened the window above her bed. Back when her father was reasonable, she had coaxed him into moving her bedroom to the first floor. She climbed out of the window, still in her PJ's but covered with a blue and black jacket. Her feet landed on the ticklish grass and ran into the misty moor at five in the morning. She was making good progress, about to reach the forest, until a big, grey stone decided to interrupt her. She tripped over it, and her body went tumbling down the hill.

She kept tumbling, but remained silent, except a few groans and moans here and there. Her head then met contact will another large stone. "Aren't these stones just jackasses?" M spoke.

Those were the last words she heard…

Before she passed out. You really think I, M, would let Lucy die just like that? Oh, sweetie, I got a lifetime of pain and happiness depending on this beauty… Oh, what's my real name? Sorry darling, can't tell. It's part of a deal- but I'll give you a hint. When you see my body, I'm not who you really think I am.

Savage cobalt eyes sat delicately within the creature's hard, thorny skull, which gave the creature a rather intimidating looking appearance. Several small tendrils sat atop its head, just above its invisible ears. Several rows of horns ran down the sides of each of its jaw lines.

Its nose was connected to its skull with no interruptions which lead to pointed nostrils. There was a small horn on its chin. Too many large teeth poked out from the side of its mouth and showed a glimpse of the terror hiding inside.

A wide neck ran down from its head and into a short body. The top of his vessel was covered in curved scales and rows of small fan-like growths which ran down its spine.

Its bottom was covered with small scales and was colored much lighter than the rest of its body. Four huge limbs carried its body and allow the creature to stand intimidating and sturdy. Each limb had 5 digits, each of which ended in huge claws seemingly made of black stone. His posture appeared as a lion's- big, proud, but stout.

Graceful wings grew starting from just below its shoulders and ended all the way down at its pelvis. The wings were bat-like, the inner sides of the wing were full of minor holes and each bone structures ended in a curved, yet blunt tip.

His scales were black, decorated with cobalt, as his tan underbelly added contrast to his figure.

It's vicious eyes preyed onto the ground. He saw a small figure, but as he swooped down he realized it was a child.

You kill children all the time, why not this one?

Because she looks like Angelica.

Oh, you loved her? Tell that to Gildarts.

Shut up. I loved Angelica like a daughter- this one looks too much like her when I found her.

Fine. Do what you want.

The hovering dragon swept down closer to the Earth to look at the girl. She had short, blonde hair pulled into pigtails with black bows. She had on a black and blue coat, a pink tank top on, and green PJ pants.

She must be cold- what am I thinking? Everyone else is getting apprentices- maybe I can make an exception and finally fit in?

The girl started to shiver in her sleep. He sighed as much a dragon could, and lifted her up with his wing, and tried as best as he could to put her on my back. He took off into the air, and started flying near his cave. He guesses she'll be staying here for awhile- at least until things were cleared up.
