Hey, I'm back with the accepted OCs. Mist, who will likely be a main character, Zenith, and Dreamchaser, who, if not a main character, will appear often, and was submitted by PM. I'm really, really sorry about Thanatos, but I'm not sure I would be able to do him justice, so maybe when I'm a better writer. Again, so, SO sorry. But, um, you're not here to hear me talk (through the Internet of course) so here's the chapter! :D

.

Mist stared in shock as the IceWing leapt forward, screaming in rage. Time seemed to speed up as his claws got closer to her sister's throat, and the IceWing's mouth opened. Ice crystals shot out of his maw, and as her sister's dark crimson blood escaped her throat, it froze, falling to the floor as icy droplets of ruby.

And then it was over. Her sister lying on the floor with a gaping wound in her neck. Mist reasoned from some corner of her mind that was distantly observing the chaos that the floor would have been almost slick with blood, but the IceWing had frozen the blood in her sister's veins.

And then. Aqua's chest heaved for what would be the last time, and she was frozen. And she was dead.

.

.

Mist shot upwards, her gills pulsing frantically. Just a dream, just a dream, JUST. A. DREAM. But a dream of a memory.

Her family slept around her, peaceful, serene. As if no troubled thoughts disturbed their sleep. As if Aqua's death had had no effect on them. Then, she thought, they won't mind if I leave too. But where to go? She would have loved to stay in the Kingdom of the Sea, but if she did, they would find her. And she didn't ever want to see them again.

Her head rose suddenly, as she had an idea. Jade Mountain Academy. They wouldn't mind her there, would they? Or did she need to make a reservation or something to get in? Whatever, her mind decided. Mist was going to Jade.

"What do you mean I'm not on the list?!" Mist demanded.

The RainWing at the reception desk sighed. "Look, you're not on the list, okay? It's not my fault, and I have had entirely too many dragons yelling at me today!"

Mist glared at her. She glared right back. Mist sighed in defeat, and turned to go. The RainWing started talking to someone as she walked towards the exit. It sounded like she was arguing with a.. SkyWing? Did they have SkyWing teachers here? A sigh came from behind her.

"Wait!" The RainWing cried after her. "Apparently a SeaWing refused to come to school. She was nervous or something, and someone decided it would be funnier to watch me argue with a desperate little SeaWing then just to let me know I didn't have to!" She glared pointedly at the SkyWing.

"Well, sorry," she said. "It was funny though. I didn't know RainWings had any bite in them!" the SkyWing laughed. The RainWing rubbed her temples, and muttered something that sounded suspiciously like, "Too long since I had suntime."

"Great!" Mist smiled. "What Wings are my clawmates?" The RainWing sighed again- it was getting annoying –and frowned at the list.

"Uh… let's see… It looks like you're bunking with an IceWing, a RainWing, and a NightWing."

Mist stared at her. "Is there any way you can change that!? I can't bunk with an IceWing!"

"Interesting…" The SkyWing mumbled. "You're worried about the IceWing…"

"Hmmm." The RainWing peered thoughtfully at her. "I think I forgot to tell the IceWing she would be bunking with a SeaWing.. Well, looks like she's gonna find out soon!"

"What?! No! I will absolutely NOT share a cave with an IceWing!" Mist screeched.

"Yes. You will." replied the RainWing, "Miss 'I'm not supposed to be here, but I think I can change clawmates anyway!'"

"Actually, I'm starting to pity her," the SkyWing interjected. They both swiveled to glare at her. "What? I meant the IceWing!" the SkyWing snapped at them.

"Well, what's her name?" Mist growled.

"Chill." announced the RainWing sternly. "Now go meet her. I think she's in your cave."

.

.

Mist stormed into their cave, only to find a blueish white IceWing sleeping on one of the beds. She examined 'Chill's' bed. She would have thought Chill would sleep on a block of ice, then realized they had no way to keep the ice from melting. So patterned seal pelts and feathers it was.

The IceWing yawned awake, them started back when she found a strange dragon staring hostilely at her. She had silvered blue eyes, like frost had spread across a cloudless sky.

The IceWing broke the silence first. "Who are you? And why are you staring at me like I killed your pet?"

"I'm your clawmate, squidbrain," Mist hissed at her.

"Um, pretty sure you're not. I have a NightWing and a RainWing for clawmates. Not that I'm happy about it, but it's not really like I can change it. I tried yesterday."

"Oh." Mist sat down, defeated. "Looks like I'm stuck with you, huh?"

The IceWing looked at her quizzically. "But you're not my clawmate. Did I seriously not just say that?"

"Oh," Mist replied numbly. "The RainWing at the front desk told me to tell you that she forgot to tell you about me."

Chill looked disgusted. "She is an idiot."

"Were you the first dragon to yell at her?" Mist asked.

"I might have been." the IceWing replied. "I don't know, cause I don't stalk other dragons. Or watch them while they sleep."

Mist stared flatly at her, then looked around the cave. Cool colors danced around the cave, coming from the glass globes of fire on the ceiling. Scroll racks of a dark wood were placed on either side of the doorway, and next to each bed.

"Don't you have any luggage?" Chill asked her, taking Mist by surprise.

Was she supposed to? When she left, there hadn't been anything she wanted to take, except for an ink drawing of Aqua on waterproof scroll paper. But when she looked around, it was obvious that the dragonets who had gotten here had had luggage. The NightWing had brought two dark leather bags of what looked like scrolls, beauty supplies, and a mirror. Chill had brought three sealskin bags of scrolls, scrolls and… yet more scrolls. Huh.

"No," she said finally, answering Chill's question. "Well, actually, I have this, but… that's it." She held up the rolled up drawing of Aqua.

"What's it about? Or just basic information?" Chill asked interestedly.

"What?" Mist demanded.

"What's your scroll about?" Chill asked again, slower, as if she was talking to a one year old. Ohhhh. So that's what it was.

"Um," Mist started, "it's not a scroll." It's a drawing of my dead sister! she thought angrily.

"Oh. Do you not know how to read?" Chill inquired.

"What?!" Mist roared. "Of course I do!"

"Hmmm.." Chill murmured, almost to herself, "then it's either the NightWing or the RainWing…"

Mist left the IceWing to her own thoughts as she decided to inspect the cave more closely. The globes on the ceiling were blue, purple, and green, the NightWing's bed was a pile of moss and leaves, the other two beds in the room were a... hammock? And what looked like a deep pool of water. Mist immediately chose the water. After all, who would choose to sleep above water? Then your scales would get all dry, and it would just be miserable.

She dove into the pool, tucking her wings in tight. She grinned at Chill's indignant shout at the sudden wave of water that splashed her. At the bottom of the pool was a bed of seaweed, and below that, sand. But the water was all weird. Instead of the richness of seawater, it was cold and clear and strange. Of all the things to miss about home, water?!

She surfaced quickly, shaking her head. The IceWing glared at her, and shoved a dripping wet scroll in her face.

"This was from the library! Why did you do that?!"

Mist stared at her. "You've been here for one day and you already went to the library?"

Chill stared at her defensively. "Of course! Why is that wrong!?"

The SeaWing snorted. "You're just a scrollworm."

"Excuse me?! You did not just go there, puffinhead. If you try to insult me one more time-"

"You'll do what, kill me?"

The IceWing stared at her solemnly. "No. Never again. But you will not be happy, trust me."
