Story;;
Flickering his eyelids in a dreary and sleep filled murmur, a tall dragon with distinctly attractive features awoke. His ears were akin to that of a bat and his sable coat looked tussled in the dark of the cave. He opened his eyes lazily looking placidly irritated at the source of his waken self - a smaller dragon with bright eyes and a prodding, accusing paw "Dad, dad dad dad dadadadadadad" It sung, a warbling voice. A deeper voice, scratchy with sleep replied "What time is it?" leaning his great head upon large paws. "Night time night time daddy!' The voice sung happily, blissfully unaware of the sleeping patterns of its father. Closing his crimson eyes once more he muttered, drifting back to a pleasant abyss of unconsciousness "Then go to sleep my love... If you're scared" He yawned widely "Come sleep beside me" falling asleep once more.
It was not long before a small paw prodded his gently moving sides once more, persistent and demanding and a voice in his great bat-like ears. "Dad- pleasseee, I wanna show you somefing" the small lisping voice whispered in his ear. Opening one large ruby eye, he raised his head wearily. "You kids I swear" He grumbled good naturedly. Moving his large dishlike paws, the large dragon hauled his lean body to his feet. His name was Graffyte and he yawned, revealing rows of neat, sharp white teeth. "Now careful, don't wake your brothers and sisters" He spoke softly to the young dragon bouncing at his paws. "Thanks dad" The young one said fondly, winding between his fathers legs, purring like a cat. Graffyte smiled sleepily, shaking his weary body to rid himself of sleep.
Saying nothing, Graffyte followed his child willingly, and bumped surprised into the small bean as he stopped abruptly outside of the cave that the rest of Graffyte's brood lived in. "Son?" He asked confused. "Daddy look" and Graffyte did as he was told. Looking where his son had pointed he looked above his head to look at a sky glowing with the light of thousands of stars above him. He glanced back down to see the young dragon utterly transfixed by the stars above him. He smiled once more, and leaned down to whisper in his ear "You know what they say don't you?", the little bean looked up in wonder - "No what daddy?" He wondered aloud, "Well" Graffyte said in his deep, soothing voice "They say that each star is a dragon's dream, it's why you can't see them in the day - looks like someones is missing" he chuckled. Looking utterly concerned his son looked into his eyes "Whose dad?" and Graffyte laughed "Yours! You little father-waking scamp" and his son looked relieved and smiled back "Yeah, huh - I'm sowwry dad" he said laughing
Graffyte leaned down and settled down beside his son to watch the stars, they sat silently, Graffyte was generally a tired dragon, he spent every day all day with his children - he gave everything he had to them, he loved them more than the world and they loved him. Though Graffyte was sleepy and often looked disheveled, his small mane was untidy and fell on his forehead unevenly, it could not be said by anyone who saw him or knew him that he was a resentful soul. Everything Graffyte had was in his children, they were his life and he couldn't live without them. Sitting silently beneath the cosmos blanket of silver, he didn't even notice as one by one each of his six other children sleepily wandered out of their cave and came to sit beside him and around him. He looked down for a moment and saw each one, perfect as the stars resting at his feet. His daughters entwined in a small fluffy huddle and each of his sons lying by his tail. And with a smile and a final yawn, he settled to sleep, surrounded by his offspring beneath the beautiful sky.Extra 1;; The art that you see above this message

- Wikipedia______________________Today I live in a quiet cave with my family, looking after and loving them my only duty. This is my calling, I'm sure of it. I was meant to be a father.
But before, I was headed for an entirely different path.
Years ago, in my prime, young and fit and reckless and bloodthirsty, I fought. Every night I would go down and take on any bean who wanted to fight me, launching myself at my opponents with wild fury, not stopping biting and clawing until I was dragged off of them.
My parents had died when I was a young teen, and that made me bitter. I felt abandoned. I walled my heart off and built a facade around myself as a tough, angry, violent rogue to hide my loneliness and sadness.
The fighting, which made me forget everything I longed to for a short while, was slowly destroying me too. I was constantly cut and bruised, aching all over, limping from place to place. And I was becoming the person I showed to the world. I was becoming a monster, cruel and violent, seeking blood wherever I went.
And I sank into darkness.
Until something came that lit up my entire life.
It was one night after a fight and I was hobbling back to my home when I saw her. A beautiful, beautiful lady. I stopped in my tracks as she walked by. And she stopped to. I know it sounds silly, but I swear it was love at first sight.
And all my walls just melted away.
I started seeing her every day. I loosened up. Relaxed. Smiled for the first time in a very long time. Slowly stopped fighting.
She's my mate now. And yes, I'm still gruff and scarred and I have so many flaws, but she heals me.
A year after I met her, we had our first child. And then a second. I had never seen anything so perfect and precious in my entire life.
I decided that I would never leave them like my parents had left me. Neither would I let anything hurt them. Ever. I would do anything to keep them safe.
One night after we had three children, in the middle of the night I woke in our den to hear muffled noises coming from nearby.
I crept over and saw two huge muscular strangers with our valuables in hand trying to walk quietly put of our cave. Suddenly one tripped over the slumbering form of one of my children. He snarled and opened his jaws to silence her, moonlight glittering on his deadly teeth.
My vision went red. I roared and charged, flinging myself into the fray with that wild fury I hadn't let out since my fighting days, driving the thieves off.
The next night I was sleepless, tossing and turning. Slowly I realized that wherever there were other dragons, there wluld be monsters among them, like what I had almost become. My children could never be completely safe. And I couldn't bear that.
So I took the children and my mate on a journey to find a place that was safe. We wandered for weeks until one day I stumbled upon a small cave opening.
I walked in, and immediately felt a sense of calm and peace evelop me.
It was safe here, I was sure of it
We would hide from the monsters in the dark.
