"Good job fulfilling your role. You're pretty useful." Her father said with a smirk. Holding out his hand, he touched Lily's wounds, and in an instant It began to heal.
"So I won't allow you to die." King Charles said. I dropped down to the ground and catched my breath. I was relieved that Lily was safe.
"As for the two of you." King Charles said with a dark expression.
"You'll be publicly executed one day from now for the crime of attacking a royal and for the crime of being born as a dragon. Guards take them away!" King Charles shouted. All Lily did was stand there in silence without saying a single word to her father. I felt betrayed by her as if who I'm staring at right now is a different person. The old man and I walked back to our cells without a single word said in mind.
"Welp little one we lived a long life. There is no hope in escaping from King Charles." The old man said. But I wasn't going to give up hope now. I kept using my fire powers to break out of this prison cell, but the cells were impenetrable. Then a little girl dressed in black walked near our cells. She took off her hood and it turned out to be Lily. I turned my head and said
"What are you doing here? you should go back to playing princess instead of being in this filth."
"I didn't mean to betray you. I was scared of talking back to my father because he had so much power and I was only his subordinate. Yet when you left I tried to convince him but..but that was a waste of effort." Lily cried. I felt bad for thinking about all those rude thing about Lily and I wanted to comfort her. So I pat her in the head.
"I forgive you just be honest with me." I said with a bright smile. Lily was actually crying but of course I knew she was always a crybaby. But what caught my surprise was that the old man was crying too.
"Man you youngies remind me of my best friend." The Old man said. Besides me and the old man being excuted we all seemed really happy about all the times we have spent in our lives.
"Well since you guys are going to be excuted I might as well share my past." Lily said
"As a girl growing up I was always left out.
Drawing a picture of me and my family I ran up to my dad and said
"Look daddy I made a drawing of you, Perona, Luna, and me." King Charles picked up the drawing and tear it up into pieces.
"A young girl like you should be studying not drawing stupid pictures." King Charles said.
I was also bullied by my siblings most of the times. Perona stepping on Lily she said
"You should just curl up into a ball and die."
"Yeah I bet father would be happy if you died you worthless piece of trash." Luna said. After being stepped on by my siblings I saw my father and grabbed him by the boot.
"Help" I said. But he just kicked me and his merciless eyes said
"If you really want to be part of the royal family be more useful to me." That very day I felt as if I couldn't live in this Torture chamber anymore so I packed my bags and ran away without a second thought in mind. But unfortunately 3 of my guards followed me. I ran into a mysterious dark forest and that's when I met you, Mr. Draggy. My entire life has changed and for once I was actually free from that torture chamber. I was loved by one person and that person is you. So what if you're a dragon? you didn't hurt anyone so you're safe in my book." Lily said. Honestly I, kuru was surprised to hear Lily's childhood growing up. I grabbed a stool and looked Lily in the eye.
"Lily the hardest decisions in life are not between good and bad or right and wrong, but between two goods or two rights. What you just did was right now lean by me Lily you no longer have to fear anything because I will protect you." I said proudly. At that moment the dragon necklace that the old man gave me began to glow. Then I blanked out and saw my late mother.
"Mother?" I asked
"My Child. The 5th Tribe has been a mystery to this very day but now since you're old enough to know I will tell you. The 5th Tribe is known as dragons who are half human. The necklace you possess is one of the last things they have left behind before they disappear on 556 BCE. This necklace will grant you the ability to turn into a human and other mysterious abilities. Now I must go and part ways from you." Kuru's mother said
"NO MOTHER!" I shouted. Then I woke up to reality.
"Who are you?" Lily shouted.
"Did you eat Mr. Draggy?" Lily asked.
"I'm Kuru." I said with a confused look.
"Unbelievable a dragon turning into a human girl." The Old man said. I looked at my hands and screamed
"I...I became a human!" I shouted.
"What? So you didn't eat Mr. Draggy?" Lily asked.
