Prolog

Suddenly a piercing shriek echoed around, a non human shriek. Harry ran and the snakes hissed and dropped off forming a protective circle around Harry. They reached the clearing and saw…

The First Cut Is the Deepest

By The Night is My Friend

I own nothing except the plot.

Chapter Three

Bold- memory

(Blah Blah Blah) beast speaking

Italics- mind speaking

Underlined- Thinking

Blah Blah Blah Unicorn speech

A woman in black was turning around desperately looking for help with…A beautiful white unicorn was rearing batting its hooves at a dark shape the dark shape reached under the hooves and Harry thought STUPIFY! The dark man ducked the curse because he had turned and seen the light but fled from the scene. Cautiously the unicorn and woman turned to Harry and his snakes. Can you back off a bit, they look nervous, don't worry they won't hurt me I don't think. I want to show her that we mean no harm. Slowly the snakes backed to the edge of the clearing and Harry kneeled slowly keeping his eyes locked on the unicorn's grey ones. He showed his hands palms up. Harry felt the unicorn's mind gently prod his strong barriers asking to be let in. Harry answered by opening a path through the wall of fire. The unicorn's mind walked down and the woman asked too so Harry let both. Harry showed them his life from the beginning. When they got to now Harry felt, more than heard the unicorn asking him to see her life. Cautiously he approached the barrier of electricity. A path opened and Harry viewed the life of a young unicorn learning the whistles and snorts that made up their language. He followed as the foal grew and grew learning the ways and secrets of the unicorns, leading up to the man attacking her. When it finished Harry went back into his own mind and opened his eyes. Wow Obviously Harry had memorized Unicorn language. Seeth, the unicorn, would not be able to speak human because her mouth couldn't do it, she would understand it but not speak it. "No offence or anything but if you're going to be a runaway convict you need a better name than Harry Potter. How about Seth Drasto? By the way I'm Dranta, a vampire." the woman asked, "Sure, why not?" So Harry became Seth (An- I'm calling him Seth now!). Now that that's done, lets introduce you to the other creatures. First Seeth took him to the other unicorns then the elves and then some wolves and other non-magical beings which Harry found that somehow he could talk to and Seeth gave him a strange look, he hadn't spoken the unicorn language, he had beast spoken which even Seeth didn't know. Seeth had then told Harry to stay there and cantered off. Seth just chatted to Dranta happily.

When Seeth returned she looked at Harry as though he was her savior and took him to meet who he was very nervous about, the dragons. All the time his snakes had followed him because he rode Seeth so they couldn't be on him. Now they were very excited because they were visiting advanced forms of snakes.

(YOU DARE BRING A HUMAN HERE?! NEXT THING YOU KNOW WE WILL BE IN CAGES!!!!) (TENTEK! Calm down! Seth is on the run from the prison he was put in for a crime he didn't commit! He would go to the prison if he was EVER seen!!) The green dragon's eyes widened, (Alone he walks in the dark) Seeth nodded (With a barrier of fire) (Can he?) Tentek asked (Yes) answered Seeth looking him in the eyes, (Is he?) (We think so.) (Am I what?) Seth finally burst out. The two magical creatures turned to him. (Hello…) (Seth) Seth muttered impatiently. (Hello Seth, I am Tentek, I will be teaching you.) (Teaching me what?) Seth was curious. (Teaching you to become a dragon rider.)

(Alright Seth, here are your sword, knives, bow and arrows.) A month later Seth had become skilled with blades and his bow. He had a beautiful pine bow with the same wood for the arrows. His sword was long and balanced. His knives were short and for throwing. Harry lodged a knife in each boot and slung the quiver of arrows over his shoulder then picked up his sword in its dark green sheath and hung it around his waist on the black belt. First was archery. Tentek had set up some targets and Seth drew his bow and lodged an arrow onto it. It fizzed through the air and struck the center with a solid thunk and sank into the target and quivered there. After a few more shots came throwing daggers. Seth pulled out a dagger and the next second it was stuck in the center of the target. The same with the other one. Next Seth drew his sword and completed a complicated swords dance so fast his sword was a blur then he put the sword away. Next he took off all his weapons and created a clone of himself to fight. After trading some punches and kicks the clone was on the floor and Tentek was standing above him. ( Seth I have decided that today is the day you first ride a dragon. )
