The Blazing Pheonix

"My name is Sanguine. And no one's trusted me since I was a year old." 
== Appearance ==
"I've seen myself in mirrors. I'm a very dark red, almost black, with red running down my back. My eyes are what really set me apart. They're such a deep orange they're practically red, with black- I don't know the word- whites? Um- yeah. Like a NightWing. But they didn't used to be. Oh, and I wear a shackle on my left wrist. It's a remainder. Um- the other one says I should get the shackle off, but I like it. Makes me look like what I am." 
== Personality ==
"I'd describe myself as the dragon you stay away from. That's what everyone else says. But Phe- The other one- it says I'm perfect, and it's the world that does the harm."
== Biography ==
"Um- lets see... I was born in the Sky Kingdom. Had a normal early life. But- when SkyWings are a year old, we take the animus test. And I passed. As they prepared to kill me, to sacrifice me, I kept calling out to my parents, Claret and Tercel. But they didn't answer. My anger built up inside me. I imagined the chains snapping, and choking the guards. Unfortunately, that's what happened. I saw red- I think I blacked out. But when I came too, the guards were dead on the ground, with my chains choking them. I had one left on my wrist. I kept it, enchanted it to grow with me. I came home- I didn't know what else to do. My parents were scared- horrified, even, and they too tried to kill me. They pinned me down, and the last memory I have of my father's voice is "I'm sorry, Eyas." Eyas was his nickname for me, by the way. It means an unfledged hawk. Phe- the other one says it suited me. But- back to my history. I blacked out again- and when I could control myself, it was too late. My parents were dead. I wasn't. I cried next to their bodies for a whole day... before the shadow came. It spoke to me, said it was on my side, that it could help. when I asked it it's name, it said I could call it Phoenix. I ran away from the Sky Kingdom after that. I didn't want to hurt anyone else. When I was three, Phoenix said I should sign up for Jade Mountain Academy. I did, and was welcomed for the first time in my life. But- my clawmate- she was a mind-reader. A NightWing. She read my mind when I was asleep. And- she found out. That I'd killed dragons. She said- she'd tell everyone. That she couldn't let a murderer loose on the school. I tried to explain, but Phoenix took over. It- she- said that if the NightWing- her name was Truthwriter, for good reason- escaped, then she'd tell the teachers, and they'd put me down while saying it was for my own good. I blacked out again- but when I came to, Truthwriter was dead, and her screams, which I know because of my nightmares, had brought the teachers running. Like Phoenix said, they tried to kill me. They said I was deranged, that this was merciful, that I wouldn't feel a thing. Phoenix took over. I guess that's when my eyes changed. Before they were yellow. As soon as I came to, they looked like they do today- red with the black. Phoenix said that it was for my own good- but- I- I started having nightmares. I was hiding in the mountains, and I kept seeing things only Phoenix had seen. My parents faces as I stabbed them. Truthwriter as I strangled her. The teachers as I burned them. It haunted me. And- I started to see blood. On my claws. It would flash. In and out. Like a dream. Well, a nightmare. By that time, I was four years old. And- Phoenix started to take over more often. I got a name for myself in the Scorpion Den. Well, Phoenix did. They called me The Blazing Phoenix, or just The Phoenix. I hated it. And I hated myself. I tried multiple times to kill myself, but Phoenix didn't let me. She convinced me to return to the Sky Kingdom. I could challenge! I could be the queen! No one could stop me! But- I guess they remembered me. They captured me, and put me on display. Like an animal. They enchanted my shackle with their 'trustworthy' animus. I couldn't enchant my way out. They put me in the arena and- Phoenix saved my life. She could use her animus magic. She helped me escape. But I already hated the shadow that only I saw, the shadow that followed me, and used me as a puppet. I refused it's help. I- I couldn't do as it said anymore. So- I shut it out. Started calling it The Other One. It haunts me still- and I still wake up screaming, from dreams of Truthwriter and my parents.
