Prologue
It was cold in the IceWing prison. But then, when wasn't it cold? Blossom shivered. She'd been in the gleaming white prison for six days, in conditions that should have been outlawed when it came to holding RainWing prisoners. The only thing the guards had brought for her to eat was a chunk of raw polar bear meat. Gross! She'd thought. Give me fruit any day!
Blossom had turned her nose up, refusing to eat it, although she was resigned to the fact that she would probably have to eat the meat sooner or later.
Blossom could still clearly remember the day when she was captured. She had been patrolling the outskirts of the rain forest, near the secret tunnels, when, all of the sudden, three IceWings had swooped out of the Sky and knocked her unconscious. When she woke up, she found herself here, in the IceWing prison. Blossom's stomach growled, reminding her once again of how hungry she was. She sat up and turned her gaze out the small window, thinking longingly of escape, and how wonderful it would be to return to the rain forest. After a while, a glimmer of white caught her eye. She warily turned her head to get a better look at it, and, to her surprise, a huge white IceWing emerged. And not just any IceWing, but the queen of the IceWings, Queen Blizzard. The enormous, snowy-white IceWing had a jagged scar running down her neck, and she was adorned with necklaces of diamonds. Rumor had that Blizzard had gotten that scar when she challenged her mother, Queen Snowfall, 18 years before.
Blizzard walked past each empty stone cage until she reached Blossom's. What does she want from me now? Blossom thought to herself.
Blizzard looked through the bars of the cell "Well, well, well" she spoke in a slow, regal voice "I'd wondered if you'd hide your emotions. Obviously not" she gestured to Blossom's now angry red scales, then continued. "I must say, I anticipated you would be more upset than angry. So much like your mother when she was abducted by the NightWings. You RainWings seem to be awfully good at that."
Blossom felt another wave of rage rising inside her. How dare she talk about my mother like that! "Queen Glory was a hero! My mother knew exactly what she was doing when she traveled to the kingdom of night!"
"Hmm" Blizzard grunted, making it clear what she thought of Glory. "You show unflinching loyalty to your mother, and soon you'll show that kind of loyalty to me. Blizzard opened up her white polar bear skin pouch and produced a copper colored armband "Put this on, or I'll put it on for you."
I don't want to put the dumb armband on,you moons cursed dragon!, Blossom thought. But she could see no way out of the situation. So Blossom took the band and slid it up her front left talon, making sure to glare at Blizzard all the while.
As soon as the armband touched her scales, they began to turn the same copper color as the band. The copper scales rippled outward, like waves in a pond. With a jolt Blossom realized what was happening. She was being changed, like how Hailstorm was changed into Pyrite!
Blossom looked at herself again. Steam rose from her copper scales, and she had sharp serrated claws. The transformation was complete. But if so, why did she still remember who she was?
Blizzard beckoned to her. "Come Lynx. It's time to meet the other BattleWings"
