"Why am I here?"Sliy asked.
"Master Hardman wishes to see you." Vicky answered.
"Is that why i'm getting dressed up?" Sliy asked again, as she slipped on to a silk red dress.
The maids giggled, "NO, silly. He's already married. To Mistress Alina. Oh, she's so elegant and graceful, I wish I were her." Evelyn sighed as she tightened the bow on Sliy's hair.
"So why AM i here?"
"Yours to know and ours to tell." then, without another word they slipped out of the room. Sliy watched them leave, then inspected herself in the mirror. She wore a long silk red dress that dragged on the tile floor. A red bow centered in the back of her head. Pulling two bundles of hair on either side of the head, forming a crown. He wore a red choker, and she had eye shadow, tinted red. Sliy always thought she had the perfect legs, but thSliy
e dress enhanced her legs, making it seem even longer.
A knock on the door.
"Come in?" Sliy said, not even sure if she was allowed to say that, this wasn't even her room.
A young man entered the room, he looked like he was in his twenties, "Ah, Sliy, long time no see! Last time I saw you, you were a little thing!"
Sliy stood there dumbfounded. He had his curls, fall just below the eyes. He looked fairly handsome, and woman in their right mind would fall head over heels with him. But Sliy wasn't engulfed in that, she was wondering why she had that nagging feeling in the back of her head, that sense of familiarity...
Then, a beautiful woman came into view. When I say beautiful, I mean Shiny she was so bright, that she made the newly waxed floor look dull.
"Oh, Hardman. Don't freak her out, she probably doesn't even remember you." The woman spoke in perfect english, every syllable spoken with clear pronunciation. She extended a arm, "Nice to meet you, daughter of an old friend of mine. I am head of this Firm, also known as F-4190. You may call me Alina."
"Have you met our daughter?Amber?"

Next thing I knew, I was in a bed, lying down. I looked up and saw my mom, pacing around. Wheres Sliy?
"We have to go look for Sliy, she could be in trouble!" Mom sniffled.
"Mom, calm down. We can walk down the halls and look for her. Door after door." I said, clearly frightened. Where are we? Why were we taken here? Are we kidnapped? Call the police!
They paced down the halls and gradually slowed down.
"Liza, I have something I have to tell you. Its about your father."Mom said, looking directly at Liza's eyes.
"Sliy told me to never talk about him."Looking astray.
"Thats HER father, i'm talking about yours."
"I don't understand."
"Liza, I'm not your real mother. I will tell you a story that not even I believe, but its all true. You must not tell Sliy, which it is not her destiny. Can I trust you?"
"Yes mom?"
"Long time ago when I was just twenty-three years old, I met Sliy's dad. We had a wonderful time together, eventually we got married and had our first child. Her name was Hannah. We were so happy together in one family. One day, I got my second child Sliy. Hannah got very jealous and ran away from home. We didn't worry. For these streets were very kind to us, and no crimes happened in many centuries. We expected her to come back very soon. Soon night fell and still no sign of her. Eventually Sliy's father went to go look for Hannah.
He came back, huddled in tiny sobbs. "I'm so sorry Ashley, I didn't mean to."
"What happened, did you find her?" My voice shaking.
"Yes, but she's not Hannah, she's something evil. Oh, its all my fault!"
"That doesn't make any sense!" He explained to me everything. He went to go looking for her. Every corner of town, but no sign of her. He went knocking on door to door but no one has seen her. One old crazy man pointed to the woods and said, "She ran in there, following some reddish, whitish, blackish blob. He knew what it was. Its a type of monster that leads you to its territory and devours your soul. He stepped into the woods and heard distant howls, for he knew they weren't ordinary howls, for they were werewolf howls. He shivered. A huddled shadow closed behind him, as he turned around to face Hannah, for she was not Hannah, she had the same appearances, but her eyes were dull and her smile was threatening. "Hannah?"
"Daddy, bring me home?"
"Hannah, daddy will get some help. Daddy will help you."
"No! I want to go now!" and with that she slashed at him, leaving a scar under his eye. hssss. Then he fled, knowing there was no cure, and that his daughter was permanently lost. He told me who he really was. The leader of the highest vampire clan in the world, his true name was Mike, Mike Hardman. Sliy's father explained that because of his bounty, no one in the family was safe so he took off, with all his belongings." Sliy's mom pauses for a moment.
"So how does this have anything to do with me?" Liza said, startled by all this news.
"After a few months, I heard no new of my daughter Hannah. I heard a recent murder but didn't think much of it until a police came knocking on my door.
"We have a murder case, and we'd like to ask you a few questions. May we come in" a tall policeman entered the house. Next to him was a short blonde woman, scrambling to catch up with his steps.
"We are sorry to inform you that your sister cecelia, has been murdered." The blonde policewoman said, and gave my a second to let it settle. I cried. I loved my sister. My parents died when I was very young, we went to adoption together. Whenever she got picked, she wouldn't go without me. Eventually we snuck out and found a big box to live in, my sister went to work and I went to the streets to beg for money. But now, she was dead.
"Is there anything I could do?"
"We have a few question and then we have to discuss some children matter."
"Anything!"
"When was the last time you saw her?"
"Last week."
"Did she have a boyfriend of a husband?"
"Not that I know of."
"Did you know she has a child?"
"Pardon?"
"Your sister has a child, she's up for adoption."
"Oh, this is big news..." Then I thought to myself this is my sister! its the only thing i can do to repay her!Oh, and right after my husband and daughters news. "I'll take her."
"Great! just sign these papers...and by next week, you'll add someone to your family!"

Past
At exactly one week later, you came our house, but you weren't alone. A man was right behind you, and you clung to him the whole walk to our porch.
"Who are you?"
"I'm her guardian."
"But, i'm her guardian."
"I'm her father."
"Oh." was all I could manage out.
"No time for that. Her name is Liza, she has one secret."
"Go on..."
"She's a half-dragon."

Present
"That's impossible, I'm 100% human, I mean look at me!" Liza protested.
"Ever wonder why your hairs gold, and ours is red?"
"Skipped Genes?"
"No, no one in our generation ever had gold or even blonde hair."
"So...my father?"
"Yes, after your father came to me, I did some searching. Dragons have different types. Different scales, different powers, different interests. The Black dragons are very clever, they sneak up on their opponents, they are usually very small. They love the night. Next is the rainbow dragons. They aren't actually rainbow, but they camouflage to their surrounding. They love rainbow chives. Then is the water, wind, earth, lightning, fire. Humans know dragons as fire dragons because fire dragons are careless to they get caught more easily."
"Then what am I?"
"There are many more dragons species, the more rare ones. They come in levels; common, rare, very rare, ultra rare, and legendary. You are in the legendary. A gold dragon. Dragons are known to like jewels because of your type. One villager found a gold dragon sleeping on a hill of jewels. He told the knights of the city, and they slaughtered the dragon. They used the dragon pure gold scales as plates and silverware. Because of the wealth these knights earned, there was a huge hunt for gold dragons. The gold dragons used to be in the very rare section, but because of hundreds of slaughter, its now in legendary."
"How do you know all this? If I were you, I wouldn't believe a thing."
"Your dad told me most of it_" She was interrupted by footsteps hitting the stone floor. Then we saw Sliy and relaxed, but tensed again when we realized she could've been eavesdropping.
"Where are we?"I asked, panicked.

Next thing I knew, we found ourselves in a massive room. I fell asleep on the bed with my mom next to me. What we talked about earlier was so bizarre, I'd rather not think about it. But its my history, i'm 1/2 dragon. It's so hard to accept. Back home, the boys would think it would be so cool. I should become a boy. Nah, I like being a girl.
According to tales of dragons, I should be able to have magic. Why do I look human? I looked at my hair. Hmmm, gold. I've always liked shiny, sparkly items. I'll go test my powers.
Quietly slipping out of the room, looking for any glimpse of light, i walked along the hall. After about 30 minutes. I finally found a door that had sunlight peeking through its cracks. I opened the door, the hinges creaked loudly. I blinked a few times to adjust to the rough sunlight. I saw figures moving about. So fast my eyes couldn't follow.
A guy around my age walked up to me. "Need help finding your station?"
I didn't know how to answer that, "What if I say yes?"
"Then I would ask if you knew your type."
"What's a type?"
"What powers, what specialties. What species."
"Is there dragons here?" I asked, sounding foolish.
"Dragons don't exist." He answered. Now I felt really stupid. Sensing my embarrassment he added, "But if you're talking about big winged lizards, we prefer to call them Gargoyles."
Wait, so mom...Ashley. I can't call her mom, she's not my biological mom. So Ashley was telling the truth. My dad is a dragon.
"I want to check the dragon section out."
