Night Calls

She was pale as she teleported into her room after all it was not every day a mother gave up her child. But it had to be done, left for Lone the child would be long dead and if he found out that the child was still alive then she would be better off dead herself but hopefully he wouldn't find out. Or if he did then it would not be now.

“Were have you been?” A sharp voice cuts into her thought startling her.

She turned trying to hide her disgust, as she glared at the man sitting before her fire place. Though her windows were always wide open she knew he did not come in that way he was the high mage after all, “out on a walk, did you need something?” She failed anyway as he smirked at the irritation slipping out her voice.

Ignoring it he motioned her to come to him then in a whisper asked, “and the child.”

“Dead as instructed, ”she bowed.

“Then thats good news my sweet, it was a abormination afterall and it was bound to end this way. Nothing messes with my plan.”

“Yes my lord. ”

“Now what sould we do with you Cloud dear?”

“How do you mean my lord?” Cloud paled and tried to step back but fail the monstar had dared to glue her to the floor with his cursed magic. Her eyes flashed as struggled to free herself but to no avail.

“Do not foght me dear, I won't hurt you, ” he stood up and splaced his hand on her head.

Immedaitely she threw up her mental shield and began to think about dates and oranges and flowers.To bad he did not intend to read her mind but he did something worse he cast a spell on her bonding her to himself forever.

“You left me no choice my sweet.”

Two years...

Concerntrate Dice immagine it coming towards you like a calm breeze, kissing your chin cooling the fire in you.... not that it's not a weapon no it's a loved one, yes yes good.” Galena Dice protector cheered as she watched Dice lure the apple towards her from across the room.

It was a wonder what she could do and so far Dice was the strongest mage Galenahad encountered and so young just shy of two years she already knew how to use her power which was not common. Fact was mages only found their power at the age of sixteen.

“That's it for today, rest now you have school in the morning.”

“Yes mother,goodnight mama ” Dice said as she made her way to her room, she sighed to herself wandering when she would be done with that stupid school she had never like it and most of her class mates were rude and bullies but she never complained after all mother had thought her a spell she could use to avoid them. Not that it worked always but she was gettong better at it, perharps one day she would make her teacher avoid her for the whole class.

«Dice come.»

Deep into the night...

“Galena it's time for her to go.”White said as his nose twitched in annoyance at Galena's reluctance to part with Dice. It was time for her to star her training with the dragons but Galena kept insisting that Dice was still young.

Yes she was indeed young but that was how it was supposed to be she was after all the only dragon born left and as it was bound of her she was to be trained and thought the ways of the dragons.

“But White she's still young and won't last in the Moongrove, ”she argued.

“You do not know that, that's were she belongs you and I know that.”

“But, she will be just two on the 'morrow. How will she survive it?”

“She spent two years with you that alone proves she can pass any test at the Moongrove.”

«Come Dice. »

“Do you not see how different that is, am a mage and so is she.”

“Wrong she's the only dragon born and try as you might she would not fit in with anyone else but the dragons they alone know how to train her. ”

“But...”

White growled in irritation, “Sapphira in growing impatient. The child is to come before she turns two. The dragons call her already.”

“What?”

«Dice child come.»

Dice tossed on her bed she was burning all over and her name someone was calling her name but it was not Galena. No, this voice was softer and melodic like a song it tune trying to lure her into a dance. But no she wouldn't.

«Dice child come.»

It called again she struggled turning now it was cold to cold she would warm herself up.In her subconciousness she imagined woods, plenty of woods and then she lit it on fire.

Ah so satisfying it was warm now but not warm enough, so she willed the fire to grow and more and more.

When Galena came runing to Dice room, she was on the bed and her room was on fire.

“Air, ”she commanded gesturing and trying to out off the fire but to no avail.Her eyezs flasged gold again and again but nothing happened instead it grew. “Water, ”she gestured still nothing.

“ Thats usless against dragon fire you should know. ”

“But Dice.”

“She's safe, and has ti go now.”

Resigned Galena turns and walks out of the room.

While white takes in adeep breathe and roars the fire goes off, he stalks into the room carries her and places her on his back. Then he turns and stalks out of the house, his white fur shining in the moon light.

Dice lay on his back motionless and could on longer feel the cold.

Galena stood by the window watching them untill they disappeared into the night tear drops rolling down her cheecks.

“My dear Dice, take care.”

🐉🐉🐉🐉 🐲🐲 🐉🐉🐉🐉

“She is strong and just right.”Saphira sighed puffing out smoke as she turned ftom the dragon eyes.

The eyes had shone all that needed to be known and Dice was on her way to Moongrove it was yime for the next step.
