Powers Given
Prologue
It was the brightest night. Time for the dragonets to end the fight. Which was kind of the whole point of the Talons of Peace, Webs would have said had you asked. But of course, no one's interested in my opinion. I'm just a run-away-scared-dragonet, he thought bitterly. I'm a no-guts-stupid-SeaWing. He'd heard the whispers, and just because he didn't say anything didn't mean he was deaf. He felt the egg in his talons slip, and he adjusted his grip on it. If this egg broke, there would be nothing to stop Kestrel to from destroying the other eggs, and that alone made him fly faster. As he dropped in the sky, he saw that, for some reason there was a makeshift nest, and Dune was bringing the NightWing egg out from the mountain tunnel, putting it with the others, which were in the nest already. What are you doing, Webs hissed as he landed. Since you took so long, the MudWing egg started to hatch, we brought them here so they could hatch together, like they're supposed to, Dune replied, without looking up. The NightWing egg caught the moonlight in such a way it looked silver… wait a sec. It WAS actually silver. It slowly had, seeming to absorb the moonlight coming from the three moons. By the time Dune set it down, it wasn't black at all, it was completely silver. Should we move it, Webs thought is that bad? But before he could say anything, the NightWing egg shimmered, and started to crack, quickly becoming more cracked that the MudWing egg. It looks like that egg is going to hatch first, he commented instead. Kestrel came out, but didn't say anything. They all watched silently as the silver egg hatched. The tiny dragonet looked at the moons after it completely hatched, and seemingly tried to touch the moons, soaking up their light, unfurling its tiny wings. Looking at it, Webs could see the little dragon looked like a normal NightWing, except it had some silver scales the same color as the egg had been, right under it'[s eyes. They looked almost like teardrops on the dragonet's face, and he could now see it was a male, so the name Teardrop he had been considering wouldn't work. He looked at the dragonet's wings and had an idea. Let's call him Starflight, after his wings, Webs suggested. Kestrel snorted. For once, the fool has a good idea. Fine. We'll call him Starflight. Webs realized they had heard him wrong he had meant to say Starlight, but Starflight as a nice name too. And he wasn't complaining, he'd got to name one of the dragonets of destiny. That was more than he'd gotten in a long time from anyone, so he was fine with letting Dune and kestrel name the other ones. He just wanted some part in this, and he felt as if he'd gotten it. *** End of Prologue
