the dragon girl

"My mother is out there, I just know it!" She exclaims determined to find her mother, the dragon. "I am her daughter, she will love me regardless!"

"I don't care what everyone says, I will find her." She retorts demandingly as everyone tells her of the danger. "It's a dragon!" They say "it's far too risky."

On the top of the mountains, the girl finds the dragon, flying high. Upon realizing who this girl was the dragon attacks. The flames from her breath may have missed the girl, but her claws did not. The scrape against the girls arm and she writhes in agony. "I am your daughter!" Says the girl. "I know." Utters the dragon. At which point the girl makes for her narrow escape.

Upon returning home in tears she wonders of the events that happened that day. "Why does my mother hate me?" She sobbed. "Maybe it's simply for the best," she thinks. "A dragon with a human child is not how it's supposed to be, after all." She wimpers herself to sleep.
