Of Love and Loss~My Dragon

The Princess

Lucy POV~

Darkness it always begins with darkness. Then the picture comes into view. I have had visions in my dreams since I was a child but as a child I thought they were just dreams. But they are what got me stuck here alone within this place.
                           ~FLASHBACK~
"LUCY! Come here for a moment dear!" My mother called. "Yes mommy I'm coming." I yelled running over. " Lucy just because I called you that does not mean come running  over remember your manners." Mother said scolding me. "Ok mother I remember I am a princess I have to act polite and respectful and above all be graceful in my movements.. Right mommy?" I asked trying to remember it all. " yes dear you got it, now come on we have afternoon reading to do." Mother called as she walked towards the library. "ok mommy I'm coming" I yelled trotting over to her. "lucy dear use your inside voice would you" mother said.

"Lucy come lay down you have an early morning tomorrow." Mother said to me as I finished slipping on my pajamas. "I'm coming mommy I just finished with my bath.." I said as I skipped over to my bed *brief rustling as she crawls into bed* as I settled into the bed I turned to look over at mother. "goodnight Lucy my little angel I'll see you in the morning dear I love you goodnight." Mother said a she turned off the light and quietly walked out. as I yawned I spoke to her "Goodnight mommy I love.....you" I whispered as I drifted off to sleep.

  "AAAAAAAH!!... Ah ah huh ah uwa *hic hic*".I cried as I shot awake " LADY LUCY WHATS WRONG PRINCESS! why are you crying and screaming?" The chamber maid asked me frantically. while my maid was fussing over me I continued to cry, sobbing over the dream I had. after a while the maid calmed me down and slowly laid me back down into my soft pillow. "hush now lady lucy it was all jus a dream just go back to sleep and everything will be fine in the morning." she said softly lulling me back into a sleep, when I had finally fallen asleep she quietly left the room. That's where the dreams started.

~TIME SKIP~

As I sat down at the large table to have breakfast with mother and father the dream from last night suddenly popped into my head. "f-father?" I called out to him from across the table. looking up he looked right at me " yes lucy, what is it" he stated firmly. "c-could I tell you about my dream from last night father?" I asked timidly. looking slightly puzzled he nodded his head as to say yes. breathing a sigh of relief I look across at mother and smiled. "well father last night I had a strange dream... I was out in the fields of our kingdom with you and mother and everything had been dried up because there had been no rain" I told father. when I was done he looked at me with a smile and said "lucy that was simply a dream a figment of your imagination, dreams never come true." having heard I was put at ease because father was always right. but somewhere in the pit of my stomach I just felt like something wasn't right about this.

The next harvesting season came around and the kingdom suffered a horrible drought. the crops collected were scarce. as we stood out looing at the field it made me remember the dream I had. "father this is what I saw in my dream" I stated as I held mothers hand shaking slightly because of how eery it was. "t-that's impossible!" father shouted scaring me and as I clung to mothers side more.

after that more incidents kept happening that were from my dreams that father was slowly coming to realize something was wrong. he was growing more wary of me and lowly more afraid. And then It happened the final straw. when I dreamt of mother becoming deathly ill and dying in the night. when I told father about my dream he didn't believe me but a month later mother died just as I had seen it.

"mother please don't go come back to me..i..I don't want to be alone" I sobbed into mothers side. as soon as father heard of mothers passing he came storming in. "LAYLA!" he yelled as the doors burst open and he came rushing in. but it was to late mother had passed on. sobbing into her side still I wouldn't let her go. but when father heard me crying instantly his eyes were ablaze with rage. "YOU! YOU DID THIS" he screamed as yanked me back from the bed. "THIS IS ALL YOUR DOING..YOU YOU DEMON!" he shouted as he shook me and held me so bruseingly tight on the arms! sobbing n fear I cried "i didn't do anything I DIDNT DO ANYTHING!" furious he looked at me stone cold as his face hardened. looking with hate he no longer looked at someone he used to call his daughter. now he only saw her as a witch. "you are a witch this is all your fault your the cause of all the problems in this kingdom! and things just keep getting worse when your free to roam like this!" he said to me his voice full of hate. "witches need to be put in their place and away from everyone where they cant hurt people." he said his voice turning monotone. as he dropped me to the ground.

now free from his hold I curled into a ball and sobbed into my chest, when I heard shuffling I paused in my cries only to be yanked to my feet roughly by some guards. "take her to the abandoned tower out in the woods far from here and make sure she can never get out!" the man who used to be my father yelled but now I only saw him as the scared king jude who just lost his wife.

~END OF FLASHBACK~

That's how I got here. alone in this dark dreary tower, I have no one to talk to sometimes I find my self talking to the birds I see through the small window. hoping that talking to someone or something would help me keep my sanity. but I can still see a light in this dark. so long as I can still see the tiniest sliver of light ill keep hope in my heart that ill get out of here someday. it might not be soon but someday ill get out, I wont give up without a fight. even if disease tries to take me ill keep fighting for that way out. till the day I can finally see the grass and the bright blue sky again I will never give up.
