Disgrace

Chapter one: Exiled

.

Hailey's PoV

_______________

~~SEVERAL YEARS LATER~~

Ever since my other relatives found out that I'd disgraced the clan, they started chasing me, trying to undo the damage. But chasing me won't really do anything, erasing me from existence would. Oh.... so THAT's why they were chasing me, I get it now. But still, wiping me clean off the slate of existence is waaaaay too much.

"Where is she!?" one of the twins yelled.

"There!! She's right there!!" one of the dragon trainers pointed at my direction.

Crud.

They know where I'm hiding.

I took off, away from my relatives, away from Blackthorn city, and I hid where they daren't ever go; the Ice Path. I wandered aimlessly in the dark, for how many hours? I have absolutely no idea. I thought I'd find my way out here, like my brother did, but it seems I just got more lost -_-.

I stared at the Glaceon trailing behind me.

Glaceon.

I held out my arms for Glaceon and Glaceon hurriedly jumped into them. It was quite cold in the cave and I regret not grabbing things before even getting out of my room..... Or when I actually could get in my room. After my relatives found out, they tried to shun me out of the Dragon's Den and wouldn't let me inside again. Ever.

But, you know. I can usually sneak in and grab some stuff without them noticing, I've recently taken refuge near a small cave, south of the city.

After ten billion hours of getting hopelessly lost I saw a little flicker of light in the shadowy maze.

I ran towards it.

And BOOM!

Some of my relatives where there, staring at me - no - more like glaring at me.

" Hailey, you are a disgrace to this clan. " my Aunt scowled at me.

"you've failed to keep the tradition"

"you're a disappointment!"

"no wonder why your brother left you!"

"we hate you"

"you've ruined us!"

"we're-"

"STOP IT!" an old grungy noise interrupted the insult.

My grandfather stepped forward, his eyes were no longer filled with happiness, they were just blank, with no emotion at all. He just stared at me. My relatives silenced.

"Hyōrei, you have disgraced the clan eternally." he started. My relatives agreed and nodded their heads "you have also disobeyed the family tradition".

"but I always expected that someone would be different, this tradition has been kept for so long that I was not surprised....." he trailed off "Hyōrei Misaki, you are loyal to your fellow companion, Glaceon. In doing so, you have broken the family tradition...."

"Punish her!!" my cousin yelled

"make her release Glaceon!"

"she is a disgrace, get rid of her!!"

"ENOUGH!!" me grandfather snapped "after a long time to think, I have decided. Hyōrei Misaki, you are exiled from the clan of dragons, you are to never come back or face us again.... Is this clear?"

I nodded.

"I will never return, ever, grandfather. Thank you for sparing me....." I whispered the last part.
