Tronay opens her eyes to find herself staring up into the face of her sister Sarina.

"What are you doing here?" She asks as she sits up.

"Coming to find you," Sarina replies.

"Find me? Wasn't I just gone for a few hours?"

"You have been gone for twelve years sister," Sarina corrects.

"Twelve years? How is that possible?" Tronay mutters to herself.

The shorter girl moves slightly and Tronay's eyes go to the child.

"Who is this?" She asks.

"You tell me," the girl says as she lowers her hood to reveal her black hair with silver streaks and her strangely colored eyes: one green and one blue.

Tronay is in shock as she looks at the child, her child.

"Roylzen?" She asks weakly as she staggers to her feet and grips her daughter's cloak with trembling hands.

"It's me," the girl answers as she takes her mother's hands and holds them gently. "After you disappeared, Neptune brought me to Sarina for her to raise me til I was big enough to come and look for you."

Tronay turns her eyes to Sarina.

"You did right."

"By what?" The female asks,

"By taking my daughter and raising her like your own," Tronay says as she turns her eyes back to her daughter. "I can't believe it's been twelve years since I last saw you."

Roylzen smiles and then turns her gaze to Sarina.

"What of the other dragons you sensed?" She asks.

"Nothing, only darkness," comes the faint reply moments later then it should have been.

Tronay turns and nearly slips to the ground but Roylzen breaks her fall.

"Thanks," she whispers before looking at Sarina's pale face. "Something is wrong about this. I mean why only take the two full dragons and not me along with?"

Sarina looks at her sister. What does she mean by this?

"What are you trying to say?" She asks.

Tronay smirks and unfolds her blue wings, nearly hitting Roylzen upside the head. Sarina stares in a mix of horror and astoundment. Her sister is the only child of the Nekita family to be half dragon.

"When did you. . . ?"

"Find out about this?" Tronay says, cutting her sister off. "Aurora's last wish was for my memory to be restored. I remember everything now and I remember that you carried me to the King and Queen after our mom and dad died from the 'lighting strike'. That wasn't a freak accident, Nira caused it."

"I see," Sarina mutters. "That is how it happened."
