Days turned into weeks, with no sign of anything from the master. Ugin nor I were willing to let our guard down though neither was any dragon. Some of the human clan members said that we should all stop worrying. Ugin continued to teach me defense spells and also worked on being a bit further away from me so that I could fight if I was not near him. I did not like those moments, as I much preferred to be near Ugin, but I did understand that if he was fighting he could not help me so I worked on not panicking when he was away from me..

Jace, and the others helped as well though they were not on world the entire time. Chandra taught me more about fire magic, though it was still difficult for me to cast fire I was able to get a hold of it better. Nissa still tried to gently convince me that I needed to find a home with other humans or elves, but I just kept telling her that I wanted to stay with Ugin since he was my father now. Chandra told me that Ugin could not be my father. Of course I disagreed and said "that as long as he loved me like a father it did not matter what species he was, he was my father."

She merely replied that, "she did not get it, but whatever."

Late one night as it stormed Ugin, and I were in the lair when we heard a loud roar Instantly Ugin was on his feet holding me in his hand.

"They are here, they just used a spell to come into our plane."

I nodded grimly as Ugin stepped into the rain, and I hung onto his hand. He let out a primal roar, and the other dragons replied.

"They are coming."

Gently he put me down, "stay here," he said.

"Ugin Please be careful," I said.

At that moment Sarkhan, and Narset arrived. Ugin told them quickly what we knew, and then asked them both to keep me safe. They agreed.

Ugin took off into the air, but did not get very far as several demonic spirits attacked him. There were so many of them I could see them, as could he, but they kept blasting at him, and I knew that they were hurting him. Sarkhan went to help, telling Narset to stay with me. I could only watch in horror as they were trying to kill my father. I had to stop them somehow. A blast of Ice from one demon ripped several of Ugins scales free.

"Ugin!" I shrieked, stumbling forward. The only thing that kept me from falling was the brace on my leg, and the staff that I was holding.

Narset steadied me. "Don't worry Ugin is strong, he can fight them off, and look there for the other dragons arriving."

Indeed they were, but so were even more demon spirits. They converged on the dragons attacking them as well.

I had to do something. My friends and my family were suffering because of me. Narset also watched in horror.

Suddenly I began to sing. I sang Ugins favorite song. I did not know what would happen, but at least it was something.

The demons suddenly stopped their onslaught. They turned toward me, but there was no longer pure malice in their eyes. I kept singing. They began to leave the dragons alone coming toward me. I still kept singing. They were listening to me.

One spoke to my mind, "please set us free, we just want to go in peace."

I sang telling them that they could return back to the spirit world where they could rest in peace. They slowly began to fade away from Tarkir.

Suddenly, I felt a physical pain worse than almost anything that I have ever felt in my life ever. I fell to the ground, and managed to turn my body to see my master standing over me holding his obsidian staff that he had hit me with.

Narset screamed: "Serenity!"

I looked into my master's eyes that were full of pure hatred. Since I had stopped singing the demons turned back to continue their attack on my family.

"No," I managed and began to sing again. Though pain filled my vision.

"Stop," master hissed, grabbing me up in the air, holding onto my neck, choking me.

Despite this I kept singing. I had to keep them away from Ugin, and the others. I begged the demons to help me in song.

Master once again struck me in the head with the staff. My consciousness began to swim.

I heard Ugin's voice in my head. "Use fire, please get away from him."

I used my dangling hands to cast fire, but something changed: the fire became a pure prismatic light burning him.

Master dropped me to the ground shrieking in pain. He also threw the staff that he was holding to the ground, causing it to shatter into a thousand pieces. The demons that he had once commanded turned on him, and I once again began to sing.

Master turned whiter than he already was.

"No begone with you. Kill the dragons."

I kept singing, it seemed that now the demons were in my control. I sang to them asking them to go back home.

One demon spoke in my head. "We must kill our tormenter," it said, and they converged on the three of us.

At that moment Sarkhan flew by grabbing Narset, and Ugin got to me, and they lifted us away from the demons who began to rip, and tear at my old master. I could not watch one because it was somewhat gruesome, but also because the pain was blinding me.

Ugin Spoke. "Please stay with me. I know that you're hurt, but please try to stay with me."

I nodded, and forced myself to hold onto Ugin.

"Are you hurt?" I managed to ask.

"I am fine, thanks to your song. Your song magic not only healed me, but it turned the demons against your former master."

I nodded, and soon enough we reached the lair. Sarkhan landed beside us.

"Get Serenity taken care of," he said, "I will help finish up things with Jace, and the other dragons."

Ugin nodded, and we headed inside. As Ugin settled down laying on his back I could feel the warmth of a healing spell taking hold, but after that I lost consciousness. The last thing that I remembered hearing was Ugin saying: "it's alright you're going to be okay Serenity I am here with you."

I had battled the demons that were indeed not all that strong, but there had been so many that even I, an Elder Dragon, was a bit overwhelmed by them. They tore at my scales, and even managed to draw a bit of my lifeblood.

I was glad that Serenity was not able to see it up close, but it was obvious that she had indeed seen the battle in, and of itself. I heard Serenity's sweet pure voice singing out. The moment that she began to sing my wounds and many other dragons that could hear her wounds also began to heal. Not only did she begin to work on the demons she had also been trying to control them to get them to return back to the spirit world. It seemed to be working, and until she suddenly stopped singing. I could not see what was happening, but I knew from the jumbled state of her mind that something was very, very wrong. I tried to ask her mentally if she was alright, but was unable to get an answer. That worried me, but then I heard her voice again in song, but this time her voice sounded strained, and in pain. It stopped again, and the next time she sang it sounded like she was being choked. It was filled with pain, and fear. I spoke one command to her: "Use your fire magic to save yourself."

I heard shrieking, and then I could see a bright prismatic light that was Serenity's magic. Then the demons left us heading for Serenity, her old master, and Narset. Sarkhan, and I also flew there to rescue our family.

When I reached Serenity I could tell that she was hurt pretty badly. She had claw marks on her neck as well as a huge knot forming on her head.

"Serenity please stay with me. Please hold on."

With that, I hurried to the lair to take care of her injuries.

When she lost consciousness when I began to cast healing magic I kept watch over her. I wanted her to know that even when she was unconscious that I was there with her, that she was not alone. I also had to decide what to tell Serenity. I knew that she had seen the demon spirits rip, and tear her master's clothes apart, but in her state I was certain that she had not seen what happened to his body.

Rather than being ripped apart, and becoming a bloody mess. He merely disintegrated. I was able to see a dark mist, and then fade away. I knew that he was most likely still alive, but not here. He had been somewhere else, and in fact was a lich, or undead spirit of some sort. I knew that I would have to tell her, but it was something that we could not worry about in the meantime. I knew that at least for now he was powerless to do anything else to her, and that we would all work it out. At least I hoped so. For Serenity's sake.
