Author's Note- Hello, good dragons of the world! Jade Winglet here, and we got something in store. A fanfiction! Yay!

Now, before we start telling a tale of thrills and betrayal, we'll have to state a few things:

This fanfiction takes place 3,000 years after the events of DoD. So, OCS are involved.

And, NightWings regained their old kingdom, thanks to a kind animus restoring their old kingdom to be habitable.

So, enjoy!


-Prologue-

Dear Principal Shrimp,

It is an honour for me to announce that Jade Mountain Academy will have an opportunity to be able to travel to the Scorpion Den to watch a play put on by a group of young actors and actresses. I, of course, have the honours of being there myself.

I hope that you will be able to come to see the play! If not, then this will truly be such a missed opportunity.

Yours truly, Queen Ebony of the SkyWings -

Shrimp sat at his desk in his office inside the great Jade Mountain Academy, reading over the letter sent by Queen Ebony of the SkyWings herself. It was a real shock, in all honesty. Getting sent a letter by a queen? He observed the words carefully, rereading it a few times. He couldn't really believe that the letter was even genuine.

He was quite confused, even amazed as one might say. However, he still knew that he was going to have to make a decision to respond to such a letter, none less one by Ebony herself.

He barely even had any connections with his own tribes queen, so getting an invitation from another tribe's queen was practically mind blowing.

He got up from his desk, his tail flicking anxiously. He read the words on the letter one last time before putting it down. He had to really assure himself that a queen, of all dragons, would have invited his academy to a private showcase, with her also there. He didn't know if he could turn down such an offer. Why exactly she had invited Jade Mountain Academy, he did not know. He felt like turning down such an honor would be a waste, as well as disrespectful. He looked at the pool in his office, staring at his reflection. He saw himself with a confused face. He folded his talons over and over and thought to himself in an observing way, I should say yes. I should let my academy go to such an honouring thing. But am I ready to? How could I say no? Well.. I guess if I cannot say no.. I have to say yes.

The SeaWing snapped up from staring at himself in the pool. He grabbed the letter and rolled it up neatly. A new rush of confidence ushered him to alert the staff first; maybe their opinions will make him definitely not regret his decision, he only hoped. He knew that getting advice from other dragons would help. He hurriedly bolted out of his office and down the hallway, before he could change his mind.

Students were jumbled in the front of the school, some patiently waiting for further instructions or for the principal to begin speaking, while some were still loudly talking with their clawmates. Shrimp just was watching over them, waiting for the moment of where he would break the news that they were seeing a private play, and that they were invited by the queen of the SkyWings, as shocking as it was.

Shrimp cleared his throat loudly, waiting anxiously for silence. When he knew all of his students had begun to quiet down, he started to speak:

"Students of Jade Mountain Academy, I have some news that I must tell you. Queen Ebony of the SkyWings herself has invited us to a private play. I have thought long about this invitation, and can confirm that we are going. It will be taking place at the Scorpion Den, so I hope you are all excited for this honouring surprise!"

Shrimp then went silent, waiting for reactions. It started with a few surprised whispers and mutters, and then he saw a few dragons starting to talk in small groups, which soon erupted into full chaos, either dragons now beginning to ask questions.

"When are we going?"

"How far is it?"

"How hot is it going to be? I might literally die if we are stuck in the middle of the desert."

"Can I bring my history scroll?"

Shrimp cleared his throat sharply for silence, but the dragons kept on talking. When the students did not listen, he called out,

"Students of Jade Mountain Academy! I wish for silence! Your questions will be answered soon. You are all dismissed. And I do NOT want chaos inside the mountain, so talk with you clawmates quietly!"

He watched as dragons quickly cleared away, dispersing into smaller groups and chattering in different tones to each other. Excited, nervous, anxious, jittery, and even angry that their questions had not been answered. He climbed down from the rock ledge and just watched the younger dragons. Once they had all left, he hurried over to the fellow staff, and they went into a small huddle, talking anxiously.
