~ Previously : I opened the door to my apartment and jumped into bed, well now is not the time to be thinking about this, it's time to go back into my dream world. I yawned loudly not bothering to change my clothes and let sleep consume me... ~

*Vix's Pov*

Run. Keep running. Running as fast as my legs could take me, I don't know where I am but my wings are damaged and I'm running away from something that's pulling me toward it. I hear an ear shredding howl pass through the entire area, it's full of pain and loneliness, I couldn't stop myself I let out a comforting howl back. Why?... Why, did I just give up my location to my attacker? I tripped on a rock and tumbled into a fallen tree, ow my whole body aches now. Crack...Crack! I looked out into the darkness to see gleaming red eyes staring straight at me, trembling in fear it continues to move forward while I tried to move back, the dark figure whimpered loudly which caused my heart to ache in pain. I tried to touch the strange figure, it stared at my claws in fear and quickly ran away from me, I was pleased at the same time disappointed. I looked down to see that I had transformed back into human form, blood gushed out of my back from my wounds in dragon form, dizzy... everything was spinning as my life slowly faded away another howl echoed through the land this time of sorrow and guilt. Darkness came over me and I gladly accepted it's embrace, it was warm and soothing to be as if held in the waves of darkness.

I quickly woke up, looking around my room and noticing that I was covered in sweat. Sighing as I looked over to the clock to see it was 4:30am, hmm it's way to early but I know that falling back asleep won't work so better try to be productive. I put on grey sweatpants and a big hoodie and ran out of my apartment to walk around the neighborhood for a bit before I decided to go to school for the day. I wonder how my family is doing back at the kingdom... it was my decision to move out although they begged to me to stay since the human realm was dangerous and filled with other creatures that would cause harm to a princess. Oh well... staying back home wasn't what I wanted to do since being under my parents wings and being cared for by the servants and maids, didn't feel like I was actually living at all. I began to jog a bit around the neighborhood while admiring the beautiful colors of the sky, life at this moment was calm and peaceful, the sounds of the gentle crickets and birds. It reminds me of home, in the giant green house there's always peace and quiet... I wonder if my brothers or parents have changed at all or do they even remember me.
My father came from a huge line of Death members, he was the first born so it was only natural that he would be the new king. My father had jet black hair and dark brown eyes that would turn black when he was upset or angered which was very rare since he knew how to control his temper unlike my brothers. He had dark tan skin and was around 5 10" so he was taller than me by alot which was another reason why I was his princess. He's a very serious man who is well known due to the large population of the kingdom and that the Death family is one of the oldest dragon shifter societies in the world, he has a great sense of humor that's another reason why my mother stays with him and how she fell in love with him. He's always been there for the family and do everything to protect it and the people of the kingdom, his dragon is named Jet who is enormous compared to mine since he is king giving him more power than an average dragon. Which is one of the traits my brothers have taken on from him, although they lack his serious attitude they make up with their determination and eachother for advice.
I quickly turned back to my apartment when my legs began to ache from jogging so far,and that the sun was being to come up. Well better get home and take a quick shower before going to college, sighing as I walked into my apartment and walked to the bathroom. Turning on the water to cold since it would numb my aching bones, quickly slipping out of my clothes and into the shower I began to get lost in thought. This was my last year of four year college to become a vet which was what I wanted to do since I was young, but I wanted to help exotic animals not regular house pets that will be very sentimental if they died which was something I don't wanna deal with. I began to sing Stitches by: Shawn Mendes while conditioning my hair in the freezing water.

I thought that I've been hurt before
But no one's ever left me quite this sore
Your words cut deeper than a knife
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life
Got a feeling that I'm going under
But I know that I'll make it out alive
If I quit calling you my lover
Move on
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
I'm shaking falling onto my knees
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
I'm tripping over myself
I'm aching begging you to come help
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Oh you lured me in I couldn't sense the pain
Your bitter heart cold to the touch
Now I'm gonna reap what I sew
I'm left seeing red on my own...

I turned off the water and got out of the shower to be greeted by the morning breeze that caused goosebumps to cover my entire body, before wrapping myself in my towel. I quickly blow dried my hair and styled it as best as I could before slipping on my bra and panties and a black v-cut long shelved shirt and regular white jeans. I grabbed my phone and hoodie before running off to school a.k.a Hell.
