You ran faster, into the woods away from your home. You couldn't stand it there, your parents would beat you and your sister, this time when your father knocked your sister down, she didn't get back up. You had no other choice than to run. You heard the intense sound of gunshots, and ran until you couldn't run anymore. One of the gunfires flew through your shoulder, making you fall to the ground. You were left there to die, your world fading into blackness...

You woke within a cave, your wound was closed, but it had been burnt closed. You felt pain.

"Ah, so you've woken from your coma?"
You heard a mysterious voice say.
"W-where am I?" You choked out,
"W-who are you? Why am I-I here?"
The voice chuckled, "Your in my cave, and I am Charred Ashes. You can call me Charred."
He sounded kind, despite the the rough voice that he had. "Sh-show yourself!" You shouted, not knowing what to expect.

"If you wish." Out of the shadowy atmosphere a dragon approached. He had black scales with stone-gray patterns and glowing, emerald-green eyes. You gasped, "H-how? Are you going to kill me?"

"No! Why would I bring you all the way here when I could've let you die in the woods?" He snapped at you.
"B-but your a dragon! Don't dragons normally kill people?" You replied with a shaky voice.
"Some do, but I prefer not to be a viscous human-slaughtering monster! Now, do you want to go home or to my castle?" He asked annoyed.
"W-what...? You replied shocked, "w-why can't I j-just live in the woods? Or find other human homes?"
He answered quite angrily, "Do you or do you not?!"
"I g-guess..." You started crying softly.

He took you into his claws and put you on his back. He flew away from the cave, his battle-scarred wings souring through the air. You clung to him for dear life, for you had a terrible fear of heights. He flew higher and higher into the sky, eventually reaching an extremely high altitude. He flew through a pane of magic, barley visible to the human eye. When he flew through it you were greeted by a dark atmosphere, realizing it was night there. He flew out to a floating island, no, a floating MANSION in the sky. There was a forest down below, the tall evergreen tops poking out here and there.

"We're here." He said, obviously exhausted from the trip.
"Woah... Where are we?" You asked, intently studying the area. He flew through the massive castle doors and landed on the cold marble floor inside.
"We're at my castle."
