As I freeze in fear a dragon tail stabs the wood next to my head. I quickly snap out of it and roll to the side pulling out my steel sword. "Who are you and where's my father?!" I yell. I'm answered with a growl and another attack towards my face. I quickly deflect it and try retaliate a attack back. My sword is quickly blocked with a dark midnight black tail. "I see how this is going to be." I say. I grab two hunting daggers and throw them in the direction of my attacker hoping to distract them. It works and I'm able to grab my wand and cause a pebble flying towards their head. There's a small thump as their body hits the floor. I light the fireplace and some candles and see who I was dealing with. I was left staring at a young girl with brown hair in a braid. She had black dragon horns, a tail, and razor sharp fangs. Her wings were spread out behind her as she lied there motionless except for the occasional twitch of her hand. I stop staring and start to search for my dad in the house.
After I search every room except the bedroom I start to panic. As I open the door I'm greeted with the stench of fresh blood, lots of it. I slowly walk over to a lump on the floor and I'm horrified as I see it's my father. As I stand there I suddenly feel calm as I fall to the floor asleep.
I wake up confused, but I'm hit with the realization of the death of my father quickly. I try to remember what caused his death but with no such luck. Tears form in my eyes as I sit there staring at his cold lifeless body. I sob for who knows how long. I felt like I was dead. Voices spoke my name, but I could barely hear them. After that I pass out.
