Charlie's Pov:
We were tracking a group of Dragons and one was acting very weird. It was flying in staggered movements as if it couldn't open it's wing all the way. One of the guys in my group tried to shoot it down which only made it angry. But I could see something else behind its tough demeanor, almost human like and scared. So that's how I got here, at 12 am I was in a field where the Dragon was. It knew I was here and surprisingly didn't mind. I heard a bunch of commotion and a group of Dragon hunters appeared. The Dragon freaked out, but it didn't stand a chance the hunters shot a spell that shattered it's left wing. I couldn't stand here any more. I thought to myself.
"Leave it alone!" I shout running towards the hunters who get spooked and run off as it breathes fire at them. It turns and looks at me before crumpling to the ground. I rush over and lay a hand on its back, and it shudders; it starts to back away slowly.
"Hey easy, I don't plan on hurting you." I say and the dragon cocks it's head at me. I get a really off putting feeling and the dragon flashes a bright light and in its place is a girl; around my age, cradling her arm. I step back only now realizing that I am dealing with a shapeshifter. I've heard stories of them dying out, but maybe they've began reproducing again? I don't know. I shake my head clearing it. I take a step closer and she backs up, I stop. "What's your name?" I ask and she hesitates for a moment. "It's Harper." She says and I nod. "I'm Charlie, I want to help you. Can I look at your arm?" I ask and she nods slowly. I cautiously approach and look at her arm, definitely mangled. "I don't think any healing spell with fix this." I mutter thinking aloud. "What do you mean spell?" She asks and I look up at her face confused. She's gorgeous, her eyes are so beautiful.... "You don't know about magic?" I ask and she shakes her head. "No, I know that I have magic but I don't understand using a wand and using magic that way." She says wincing as I gently touch the side of her arm. "Well it's definitely broken." I mumble. "Why don't you come back with me to my hut?" I ask and she immediately tenses. "I promise I'm not going to hurt you.". She hesitantly nods. "Okay, yeah. Lead the way."....
