In the beginning there were no humans or dragons. The Elements were the only ones that roamed the earth. It was gentle Water that first suggested to the other Elements that they bring life to their empty lands. Together, they covered the earth in animals and plants of all shapes and sizes; Air made birds to fly and sing to her, Rock made plants and trees to decorate him, Water made animals to swim in her and Fire made animals to walk among Rock's plants.
But even with all this life, they were still not happy.
"We need something to rule over what we have made." Mighty Rock said. A debate went on for many days on what they should make until they decide to go off for a week and come back with what they were willing to offer.
Fire came first with his gift of power, Rock with his gift of hardness, Air with her ability to fly, and Water with her gift to life. With the gifts they had, they combined them to make the first dragon. They stood in aw at their creation, each of them blessing some dragons to control their own power; Fire the ability to call upon him in need, Rock with acid, Water with frost, and Air with lighting.
For many years the Elements were happy with their child. The dragons brought peace and happiness, making sure that no one animal died off due to over hunting or one from over breeding. They kept balance in the world and all was happy, but it was not to last.
But even then, the Elements were not completely happy. They wished for something other then dragons to roam the earth and so they made man. Each of the Elements blessed them with a gift. Fire gave them weapons to hunt with, Rock gave armor to defend with, Air and Water gave them knowledge.
For awhile the dragons and humans lived together well, but soon humans grew confident with their abilities. They started to attack dragons; killing them for honor and for power. The dragons did not wish to kill their long time friends so they fled, flying away from the lands they had grown up in and lived all their lives.
For many days they flew, some dying on the way but they kept going. Soon they came to a land that was untouched by humans. They settled down and rebuilt their lost number. For many years they lived in peace, but then it all changed over night. A whisper of humans came back to their ears, sending anger through some and fear though others.
Some wished to try and win back their trust, to show them the wrong that they did was not right. Many others wished to go back to the humans and kill them all. Those that did not speak did not care, they were safe so it did not matter to them on what happened.
The once large group of dragons started to fight a mongst them selves on what should be done. Those that wished to try and win the humans back formed their own pack while those that wished to kill them all formed their own. The dragons that just wished to look out for themselves soon made a pack of their own.
Wishers of humans still come now and then, but they no longer hold the fear they use to. But the three packs still exist today and they still fight on what should be done. No matter what side the dragon may be on they all have one dream, no matter what they wish to do. They wish for freedom as they once had, to not be forced into this bickering. They wish for a
