Twisting Shadows

==Prologue==
Was that a faint flicker of movement? No, I must be imagining it, my eyes always betray me at this hour.
I sighed, turning around but stopped, slowly turning around, what was that?, I felt a chill creep up my spine. With a shudder a continued walking, only to pause again a second later, something is there.
I took a deep breath in, “It’s nothing,” I told myself aloud, trying to push back the feeling of unease that had entered my thoughts, “Only an overreaction”. With that I opened my wings and took off. Did I hear flapping behind me, of course not, near Sanctuary is always busy at this hour.
I swooped down to land near my cave, see, safe at home. I took back those thoughts as I heard hissing behind me, I whirled around, “Who’s there!” I demanded.
The dragon’s voice was unpleasant, “Your doom.” I snorted, sound like a random dragon trying to pull a prank on me. But I was so wrong, so, so wrong. The dragon made a flicking motion, I didn’t notice anything until it struck me in the throat, quite literally. My eyes flew open wide as a felt the pain and the blood trickling down my neck, my last thoughts before I collapsed was, what... just... happened...
==Chapter 1==
Kelp
Another death, I bit my lip, could it possibly ever get worse? I sighed, shaking my head in despair,what am I ever going to do if mom or dad gets killed too. I blinked away tears as I imagined their dead, bloody bodies lying on the steps to our home.
I turned around, hearing talons enter the kitchen. A small, plump turquoise SeaWing had come in, “You should stop looking at these reports, they’re messing with your head” 
I bit back a growl of frustration as I responded, “I need to know about these things mom, if I can figure out what’s been going on then I can help!” I knew I wouldn’t be able to do much, who would trust a six and a half year old dragonet?
My mother snorted, “Leave that to the officials, a dragonet will only interfere in finding the culprit or culprits.” She didn’t say this unkindly, just bluntly.
I chose to ignore the first part of what she had said, “Culprits? There’s more than one of them?” I blinked in surprise, but I thought there was only one, it could be possible that there’s a team...
My mom nodded in confirmation. “They believe there has been a gang or group of some sort working out how to kill dragons and when certain dragons will be alone so as to not get caught,” She replied and I got up. “Thanks mom!” I called over my shoulder as I ran out the door. She shot me a worried and confused glance as I ran, “Wait-” It was to late, I was out the door, opening my wings to fly.

I was surprised when Kelp slammed into me, running at full speed.
“Watch it!” I yelped, “The tips of your wings nearly blinded me!” She took a few steps back with an apologetic look, “Sorry, I was kind of busy and distracted”
I accepted her apology with a brisk nod, “It’s fine. What are you doing anyway?” I asked curiously, “Wait- no- I think I can guess. You are... trying to figure out who did it, aren’t you?” Kelp took another step back with a guilty look and I guessed I was right, “You silly dragonet, you should just wait for them to figure out.”
Kelp huffed, “For one, your only a few months older than me, and two, that’s literally what my mom told me. You think I’m just going to sit still and watch innocent dragons die?”
“You’re not sitting still, you’re being a smart dragonet and waiting for experienced dragons to solve this rather than getting yourself killed too,” I responded. Kelp rolled her eyes but didn’t respond so I took that as a sign of victory.
When she finally replied it was not to what I had said, “We’re going to the library!” I sighed as she pulled on my tail then let go, stomping off to the library, I willingly followed.
