Chapter two,

My eyes snapped open to aunt petunia's voice and her rapid slapping of my cupboard door. The pain wasn't as bad as the night before but I wished I could stay in my dream forever it was such a warm and protective feeling being there instead of here.

I quickly got up and moved to the door and out it to start breakfast even though I can't see the top of the stove and that would be my greatest downfall as I couldn't see the bacon to know when to flip it so it ended up burning on the edge.

" You stupid ungrateful girl we take you in and care for you and this is what you do in return you burn our food! It seems we need to teach you a lesson girl one you won't forget!" I heard just as uncle Vernon grabbed me by the back of the neck and my hand I tried to fight as he had aunt petunia move the pan and began to force my hand onto the burner. The searing pain that began within moments of my hand coming in contact. I could smell something burning and I finally let out a wail.

" Shut up you ungrateful freak!" They shouted as uncle Vernon ripped me away from the stove and tossed me like a rag doll across the floor. I could hear crunching as I bounced across the floor and then nothing but searing pain. I laid in a crumpled heap in the floor with one eye being able to see him advance forward towards me and as he came forward I could feel in my bones that I was going to die.

I don't want to die. I kept repeating again and again as time seemed to slow down and then a feeling similar to being suffocated came over me and than nothing I couldn't see for a minute and than a huffing sound. I know that sound but I couldn't move towards it or even roll over.

Just as I thought this I felt a claw curl over my little body and slowly pulled me towards it and then a warm feeling came over me as I fell into a light sleep. I may live through this.

"What have you eaten that you've made a mess around here caraxes?" I heard as caraxes shifted to show my crippled form under his wing.

"Little dragon! Call the maesters quickly come on little one look at me." I opened an eye to see his concerned face peering at me as he slowly came closer because of caraxes protective stance. Once he was to me he gently lifted me into his arms and began moving quickly to a different place. I faded out as he was moving.

Coming too was a new feeling I felt very fuzzy and warm but also tight in a way like I being cradled. " You found her under caraxes uncle. How did she get there?"

" I have no idea but she was there and he was protecting her as if she were his young he grew agitated when even I came near."

Rolling my head back I look into Rhaenyra's eye as I began to mumble half coherently. " Unc punish cause I burn break...fast" it took so much to even say that. I rolled my head back a tucked it into Rhaenyra's neck and tried to flex the hand that was burned but couldn't. Oh well atleast the pain is gone for now.
