Dragon King's Daughter

She looks up to the sky After running out of the house As her mother takes her last breath She see’s a dragon in the sky No one should have to watch someone they love die. Especially at a young age. Being left alone in the world with no one. That is what I was thinking about as I looked at the sky crying. I know I should be with my mother in her final moments. She has been sick for years. She always told me she would one day tell me who my father is and yet even in her final moment's won't tell me. *Flash back to moment before "Momma who is my father?" I asked "I will tell you when you are old enough" Mother says "Mamma why won't you tell me!" I nearly yell at her. "You are not old enough my dear Luna" Mother says weakly "I will get through this again. I have many times before" I storm out of the house. I just knew she was wrong. I could sense her fading away. It has never been this bad before. *Flashback over The doctor comes outsides to me. "She's gone" The doctor says. I just nod my head and fall to the ground. The doctor leaves me going back in to prepare to move her body. I just cry, laying on my back looking up at the sky. All of a sudden there is a big creature in the sky. To big to be a bird. I had heard stories of dragons as a child but had never seen on before. It is told they all had died. There was no mistaking this was a dragon. A huge red dragon wasn't even there for a minute before disappearing again. Shocked I get up and walk back inside to see them taking my mother's body away. A nurse comes over to me "Do you have anywhere to go sweetie?" the nurse asked. "Yeah I do. I am going to go pack now" I lied. The nurse nodded giving me a look that said she didn't believe me The orphanage would be worse than being on my own. I go and pack the little things I owned. We have always been poor our little house didn't have much in it to begin with. Most of it would be sold and I wouldn't see a dime of it. All because I am a girl. After packing my things. I go to my mothers room and stare at her bed. Where she was just moments ago. I had planned to come back and apologize but she died first. I can't stop from crying again. I take a step out of her room to calm myself. I wanted to keep some of her things. I couldn't bear the thought of it all going to the stranger that made the highest bid. I man up and I walk in there not even looking at anything and just throwing it all into my bag. Satisfied I leave the house and never look back as I walk down the dirt path to the market.
