Chapter 1
-Blizzards pov-
I gazed down at my brother, Shadow, trying to climb up the ledge. His wings were bleeding from a spear, and I tried to reach him. As he grabbed a icicle sticking out of the great Ice wall, it shattered, and he fell.
"SHADOW!" I screamed. My wings were impaled, so I couldn't fly either. All I could do was watch as my Nightwing/Icewing brother fell helplessly to his death. He looked like he was making a decision, and tapped his wings, and they were healed. I gazed at Him in complete shock. He was flying up, and when he saw me, we turned whiter than a ghost(Authors note: Blizzard looks more like a Nightwing, and Shadow looks more like a Icewing, I'll go into detail why Later).
"Sorry." He gently muttered to himself looking down.
"What the actual FUCK just happened?" I asked him with a very serious look on my face. "How did you do that? Do you have healing powers?" I asked very confused.
"I know you will keep this a secret, but." He gulped very hard." I'm an animus." He said. I burst out laughing.
"ANIMUS? YOU SERIOUSLY THINK I WOULD BELIEVE YOU? WE HAVEN'T HAD AN ANIMUS IN CENTURIES!" I bellowed.
"I'm serious!" He said looking mad. He tapped my wings, and they healed faster than a dragon running from a volcano. I knew animus dragons had a little bit of there soul taken whenever they used their powers, but Shadow seemed fine. He then pressed his claws in the ground, and the snow formed into a giant ball, and rolled off the ledge. I gazed down, and saw it crash at the bottom, but instead of bursting into a million pieces, it bounced back up, and shadow spit some frost at it, which made it explode."Now do you believe me?" He asked. I nodded my head as I looked at him with a mixture if surprise and fear. I guess he read my face. "Please don't tell anyone. If queen glacier figures out I can use animus magic, and not get hurt, then I will be forced to work for ever." He said grabbing my shoulders.
"How do you know it doesn't affect your soul?" I asked.
"I've been using it every week since I was three. So, basically once a week for 2 years. Why haven't you wondered why I come home with money, and food every day?" He said.
"I don't know, but where going to Jade mountain in a week, so I don't see how you are going to hide it there. Also, can you make me a scroll like the one Darkstalker had?" I asked looking curious. His eyes were furious.
"DO YOU HONESTLY THINK I WOULD MAKE SOMETHING AS POWERFUL AS THAT AS A TOY? DO YOU KNOW THE WARS IT COULD START? THE PEOPLE IT WILL HURT? THE CRUELTY I WILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH?" He screamed. Thankfully, we were out in the woods, so no one could hear him, but it scared me.
"I'm sorry." I muttered quietly. We went back to the village, and I reminded Shadow he could be in the 1st circle for the rankings if he gave his power to queen Glacier, but he threatened to burn my face. I forgot that we had the ability so of both icewings, and night wings. To be honest, I'm not really clear why queen glacier didn't kill our father, banish our mother, and have us both killed, but instead let us all live in the main Icewing village. I opened the door, and went straight to my room. Ok, so my room is Actually just the attic area where he keep some junk, and Shadow, as my twin, also sleeps here.
"How was hunting, boys?" Our father asked us.
"Good." I quickly choked out. I almost accidentally mentioned mtpy brothers secret.
"Catch anything good?" He asked. Before I could respond, Shadow camel king in with a moose. "How did you catch that?" He asked.
"A trap." Shadow lied.
"Well hand it over, and I'll get it ready. You guys can go to the town and play." He said.
"Thanks father." Me and Shadow said simultaneously. We trotted out, and flew to the town.
"How did you get that moose?" I asked.
"I heard father ask about hunting, and I turned a stack of hay into a moose, and snuck out the window."
"Hold on a second, you can MAKE food?" I asked.
"When I told you why I always came back with money and food, did you not get that a I could make food? Although if you assumed I took the money to buy food, then that also makes sense." He responded. He closed his talons to his paw, and opened them to reveal a small sac of coins. He held them tightly as we glided down. Once we landed, we wandered the streets looking for something interesting. There was a toy store, a sweet store, a weapon store(my personal favorite), and home supplies store. We wandered into the toy store, and saw our friend, Freeze. Freeze was also going to Jade mountain in a week, and was a son of queen glacier.
"Hey buddy." I said walking toward him.
"Hi, are you excited for jade mountain? I am." He amounted looking happy. He was holding some sort of gem, and when he rubbed his scales in it, they turned golden brown. "I found this the other day. Some Nightwing dropped it, and didn't realize, and when I touched it, my talon felt cold. After experimenting, I figured out it makes me a musing! All I have to do is hold it, think that I'm a Mudwing, and I turn into one!" He whispered. I inspected the stone. It was golden, and looked precious.
"I heard there's a genius at Jade mountain name Starflight, Maybe he could help us figure out what it is." I suggested. I gestured to it,and he put the stone in the palm of my hand. I thought about Mudwings, and I felt a biting pain everywhere. I dropped it, in shock. That must have been what being cold felt like. Our father never felt it because he was born that way. Everyone in our family was considered odd in someway or another. Freeze picked it up. Muttered something like "Thank God this giant case is in front of us."
So, yeah, my first Wings of Fire fanfic. Hope you enjoy. If you think I could improve my writing, let me know down in the reviews. Just don't write hate because you don't like the story. I wrote this because Icewings/nightwings are my favorite, and I love writing. Chapter 2 will be out soon. The whole Blizzard looking like a Nightwing, and Shadow looking like a Icewing thing is because at birth, they looked like the other species, and overtime, changed into their current forms. By y'all. -Cheeriojoe.
P.s. I imagine The dragons in Wings of Fire as human like creatures with scales, claws, and other Dragon like features, but they have the general shape of a human
