Maleficent gasped and sat up. She saw that it was night, and storming. Still breathing hard, she walked out of her room. 'Who was that dragon?' she thought. Then, she realized who it was. Her heart beat sped even faster. 'It couldn't be, she's dead.' she thought.  It was a Skywing, with a messed up face, and it was old. 

She grabbed a torch from one of the walls, and started looking around at the scrolls. She rummaged for a half an hour, 'till she finally found the scroll she was looking for. It was about a Skywing Queen,  going back all the way  when her Father was her age. It was her favorite scroll back when she was a little dragonet. 

    "It was said that the Skywing Queen Scarlet, had found a dream visitor and invaded the dreams of those who she could use to assassinate the Dragonets of Destiny for revenge on what they did to her." read Maleficent. " She did this with an Icewing at the Jade Mountain school a few years ago. No one knows what happened to her after the war. It is to be believed, that she is still alive, and visits those who she could still use to get her long lasting revenge on the Dragonets of Destiny." 

She rolled up the scroll and thought for a moment. She never really understood the purpose of the dream visitors. So she poked around the piles of scrolls, hoping she'd find one about dream visitors. Sadly, she didn't.

"What are you doing up so late?" asked a sleepy voice behind her. She yelped and jump back, knocking over some scrolls in the process. "Oops, I didn't mean to startle you." It was her Father. "Father." She said, annoyed. "How did you know I was up?"  "Well," started Maleficent's Father,"when you're blind, you get quit good at hearing." He smiled. "Now, why are you up at this time?"  Maleficent hesitated. Should she tell her about Queen Scarlet? If she did, how would he react? She finally decided that she wouldn't, not now, at least. "I had a nightmare." She said instead. "And I wanted some time to think." Her Father's smile faded.   "Oh, do you want to talk about it?" He said.  "No." she said immediately.  "Oh, alright, but if you would like to, well, I'm all ears."  Her Father tried not to laugh at his own joke, and went back to his room. "Father?" said Maleficent.  "Yes?" Maleficent's Father replied.  "I... I was wondering about how dream visitors work."  Once again, her Father's grin faded. "Why?" he asked. "Has someone appeared in your dreams?"  Bad idea. "No, of course not, it has just been nagging my mind for a while."  "Oh." Her Father said. "Well, they were created by an animus dragon two thousand years ago. He created three, so he could keep in touch with his other friends. The dream visitors were lost ever since. They have been found though, except for one."  "Oh," Maleficent thought for a moment. "Thanks." She began to walk to her room when her Father said, "Um, and Maleficent,"  "Yes?" said Maleficent.  "Dragons can only go other dragons dreams if they have seen them."  Maleficent's eyes widened. "Oh." she said.  "Glad I could help, good night." her Father yawned. She ran to her room. She suddenly didn't feel safe anymore. Loud thunder crackled through the sky, and she thought that she was not going to be able to sleep the rest of the night.
