The Cursed Dragon

Hatching Day

Mother P.O.V

Wind was rushing all over my scales and wings as I kept flying faster. The sky was a stormy gray as lightning flashed everywhere. "I'm almost there!" I yell out to myself as I see the volcano appearing. It was raining hard as I clutched the fiery egg in my talons, not wanting to let go. I was being chased by two other night wings, but I just kept beating my wings harder. I wasn't going to let them have this egg. And I surely wasn't going to let them destroy it either! I snap my neck towards the direction of a small gloomy cave next to the volcano. I dove straight down towards the cave as fast as I could. I'm almost there, I'm almost there.

Lightning flashes all around me as I could hear strong wing beats behind me as the guards roared. I kept flying as I look down at the cave to realize soldiers were flying out of it. They held spears and wore gray armor as they started flying straight towards me preparing to fight. I wasn't going to give up! As I grab the now steaming egg tighter in my talons as I fling myself up and into the grey gloomy clouds. I looked around I couldn't see anything, hoping that the soldiers couldn't see me either. I fly high and higher as I could before the air got to heavy for me. I stopped and just flapped my wings in place turning my head around.

I then look at the black egg in my talons. The egg had small holes inside that had lava dripping out. I hissed in pain but still held onto the egg. This egg was going to hatch very soon. And to make matters more worse was that the night wings were right. This egg was cursed with too much fire is what all the elder night wings said. And they were right. But I'm still not going to give up. I panted hard as still no sign of other night wings in the gloomy clouds.

That's when I heard a crack of lightning as a spear came tearing into my wing and out of my second wing. Shrieking is all you could hear as I started falling and falling through clouds. Holes were in my wings now as I frantically flapped them not wanting to die. Not wanting the egg to die. No this can't be happening, the egg can not get destroyed! Especially now! The dark brown volcano started appearing through the clouds as the jagged sharp rocks and ground came closer and closer to me. I will not fail your father now! I say in my mind to the egg. It was true as my husband had the smarts and I could read minds. But that was before he left me...

Wind was rushing all over my scales and wings as I slammed into the sharp rocks crushing part of  my skull and tearing parts of my neck all over. As the egg flew into the air and landed in a lava river as it floated away and into the volcano. A small black dragon head peaked out of the egg. "Shadow Stealer is your name" I say to the little dragon before it vanished into the volcano.
That's all I could remember....
