Decades ago there was a war between dragons and humans, the war had lasted for thousands of years until one day both humans and dragons had decided that they had spilled to many blood of their own kind, had sacrificed so much and for what? For no results, so they decided to make a pack, a peaceful negotiation that there would be peace between both clans in order to stop the pointless bloodshed. As many years continued to go by and the pack or deal was still in place, there was peace and no more bloodshed however one person out of a drunken rage had decided to get into in altercation with someone of the dragon clan resulting in the death of said dragon clan member, this had caused for both clans to grow apart and live in separate regions and had their own lands, the humans had the north and west lands while the dragons had the south and east lands, this had also resulted in a deal they had to make where if either or wishes to enter the land of human or dragon they must ask for permission before entering making it a rule that if either or entered without permission they would be killed in sight.
"And since then we had been at peace with them" said Mrs. Jacob's the history teacher of Saint Lucas high school
As the class was over Anne was putting away her notes that were very detailed and organized how she liked it and makes her one and only best friend joke about it in a friendly manner.
"I swear Anne everytime I come to your desk you always seem to have such organized notes, makes me wonder are you secretly a nerd?" A teenager with dark brown hair teased Anne
"No, it just makes it easier for me to understand Stella" Anne replied
"Ah I guess, I mean you get high grades already, so you got a crush yet?" Stella asked as she played with Anne's black hair
"No, I haven't found anyone to crush on Stella" Anne spoke in a way to let Stella know that she really wasn't the type for relationships due to her parents failed marriage
"Oh come one there has to be someone right?" Stella asked in a teasing manner as always
"There is no one" Anne replied as she zipped up her bag and stood up fixing her black baggy hoodie with dark red spots as a design, a gift from her mothers new boyfriend who Anne hated, not because he was with her mother but rather because he doesn't seem to like Anne from when they first met when Anne was only 7 years old
"Shall we go before my mother and her duche of a boyfriend makes a scene again?" Anne said as she put her bag on and started to walk out the classroom door as the school bell rang dismissing everyone, Stella followed Anne to the car where Anne's mother and her boyfriend were waiting. As the approached the car Anne mother runs up to Anne with tears steaming down her cheeks but her boyfriend was nowhere to be seen.
"Mom where's your boyfriend?" Asked Anne in a confused tone
"He….*sniff* he left me for his ex" Anne's mother cried as her ginger hair fell from her face as she burried her face into her daughters shoulder
Anne didn't know how to react to this, should she be happy that she no longer has to see him ever again or should she be upset that he hurt her mother, she didn't know what to do so she just patted her mothers head saying "umm it's okay mom it's his loss" when Anne said that it seemed to have triggered something that Anne didn't understand because one moment Anne was standing in front of her mother then the next she was on the ground being choked by her own mother.
"Holy shit!" Yelled Stella as she tried to get Anne's mother off her best friend only to get shoved away by Anne's mother
Anne was not starting to see stars and before she knew it, it became dark as she thought 'did I die?' She was so confused to what could have triggered her mother to act like this. After what felt like only a few minutes for Anne she opened her eyes to see she was in the hospital, she looked around herself to see her surrounding and found her father next to her holding her hand like he would always do when he was scared for Anne.
"Dad..?" Anne voice sounded warned out as if she had overused it too much but, it was the damage from her own mothers hands, Anne's father quickly looked up and saw his daughter was now awake and immediately pulled her into an embrace holding her like she was the most precious and frail person.
"Oh thank you god for having saved my child, how are you feeling sweetheart? Are you in any pain? Does it hurt anywhere? Do you remember what happens?" He held her face in a gentle manner as he always had whenever she got hurt, sick, scared, in pain or when she cried it showed he cared for her.
"Yeah I am fine dad and I remember mom crying in my shoulder about her boyfriend then the next thing I knew she was on top of me choking me...dad what caused mom to do that?" Anne asked her father still confused
"Anne my sweet child your mother is sick, we didn't want to say anything until we had felt we were ready to tell you, I know your mother might not have been the best and I know that your mother and I had tried to make our marriage work because we had you however your mother had been cheering on me since we had been together before you were born and she didn't tell me till the day I dropped you off at elementary school for your first day only to come home to find your mother in bed with another man" Anne's father looked like he was about to cry, her father wasn't the strongest physically but he was stronger then her mother emotionally and mentally maybe that's why her mother couldn't handle him
"It's okay dad I understand" Anne reassured her father and smiled warmly as they hugged once again "so how long must I stay in here?" Anne asked
"Oh well they said as soon and they check up on your throat for any damage then you can leave, I have a questions thou Anne?" Asked her father
"Yes dad?" Anne replied
"….would you be okay with me having full custody of you instead of your mother? Also would you be okay with moving with me to the east region?" Asked Anne's father
"Wh-…" Anne was shocked not because of the fact her father wanted her full couscous but because her father asked if she was okay with moving to the east region which belonged to the dragon clan
"Dad doesn't the east belong to the dragon clan?" Anne asked a bit worried
"Oh don't worry about that sweetheart I have a friend who I asked to meet us at the border with the king of dragons" Anne's father said it proudly
"Wait dad what if they try to kill us because we're humans?" Anne question only seems to make her father laugh
"Oh hunny your a dragon" as soon as her father admitted this Anne's eyes widened "what do you mean I am a dragon?" Anne was confused as both her parents were humans
"Anne your mother and I aren't your biological parents, you see your mother couldn't have children so we went to adopt, out of all the children you were the only one who stood out to us, so from there we had decided that we would have to wait till you were old enough to be told the truth" Anne was shocked with this revelation "so your saying that I am…..a dragon? But that can't be right because if I was then why was I in the human orphanage?" Anne was confused, she had so many questions running in her head, her father placed his hand on hers and spoke "your biological mother did it to keep you safe because the dragon king is well…..he's your father Anne" Anne froze she didn't understand, 'my fathers the dragon king?' She thought clearly confused and it was written on her face, she looked at the man who she grew up calling father and said "so if he's my father then does he know I exist?" Anne asked
"He does it's why he and my friend will be meeting us at the border to let us through" Anne's father said
"So your not my real dad?" Anne asked just to get it into her head
"No I am not sadly" Anne took a moment to let all this new information sink in
"Alright....so...when do we leave?" Anne asked
"Once your done being checked" was all he said to her
After a few minutes of being in silence a nurse came in and checked up and Anne's throat only to say she was free to go, they got up and left the hospital and got into the car as they drive off to he east border to start their new life, as Anne looked out the window she noticed a figure at the border then a few once they got closer so she prepared herself for her new life.
