I woke up the next morning feeling like i was on top of the world, and i'm guessing everyone caught on because i'm not normally this happy.

"umm, bro are you feeling okay? you haven't been on the dragon nip again have you?" i just laughed at his question.

"no, Blaze i haven't, i just feel happier today that's all." but in the back of my mind i knew that what i was happy about was also forbidden. But i couldn't let that weigh me down. "well, i'll see you guys later." i flew off to get some breakfast, i flew down to the beach and swooped into the water and caught a pretty big fish, i then settled down and proceeded to cook and eat it. As i sat there i could see a familiar shadow flying overhead and land next to me, she greeted me with a light nuzzle and a bite of my fish.

"you know you could have asked me for a bite, but hey i'm not judging here."

"So, what do you want to do today Fernie?"

"Fernie huh? I kind of like that, but what i think i want to do is see what i can discover around the island, and possibly sleep down by that island we went to yesterday."

"Sounds like a plan, when do we leave?"

"right now if you want, let's go milady." we flew off together in a random direction hoping to find a different location or object. We flew for about half an hour before we found something, an island that seemed to have been an active volcano at some point in time. we landed and looked around, the place was dead, the trees were blackened and charred down to stumps, there was volcanic rock splayed all over the place, this island had no chance of supporting life anymore after all that it's been through.

"this really makes me sad, seeing that this island will never be the same as it used to." i could see her head hanging down and tears starting to form, one managed to drop to the ground and from that i could see a small plant sprouted from the ground where the tear landed, and i could see that she was also a bit scared.

"It's ok Atlantia, I've got you, i'm not going anywhere just stay close to me and you'll be fine." she just nuzzled into me and we stood there for a little while.

"Come on, let's go someplace else Fernie."

"alright, where do you want to go?"

"how about that island you were talking about earlier?"

"sure, let's go." we flew off, but before i really took off into the sky i buried a small flame underneath the rocks and charcoal, a signal fire just in case i want to find this place again. i quickly caught up to her and we flew off to the island, we settled down and rested for a little bit and watched the sunset.

"Inferno, tell me something."

"yeah, what is it?"

"Do you really love me?"

"That's an easy question to answer, I do truly love you Atlantia, and no amount of different elements or family war is going to stop that feeling."

"I feel the same way about you Inferno, I also love you as much as time itself continues on, and even beyond that." we shared another kiss in the dimming sunlight to truly seal this. I laid down on the sand to go to sleep and she curled up next to me, and before we knew it we were asleep. I woke up the next morning with my arm around her and i was rolled over facing her, but this time i wasn't freaked out like the last time. I decided that it was getting kind of late in the morning and the others would probably wake up soon, so i lightly shook her to try and wake her up.

"Atlantia, hey babe, wake up it's getting pretty late in the morning." she sleepily woke up and looked at me with those beautiful violet eyes of hers that i have come to know so well.

"Good morning Fernie, how's the day like?"

"Well the day's gonna be over if you keep sleeping like this, although you do look kind of cute when you're sleeping."

"Come on, let's go, the others are gonna get suspicious of what we're doing, that is if they know that we're together." She gave me a quick kiss goodbye and flew off towards the island, i waited about ten minutes before i decided to fly back, and as i was flying i was thinking on how the others would react to me being with Atlantia. When i landed on the island i went straight to Greenroot who would understand this more than anybody, and i was expecting a hit on the head this time, but it didn't happen.

"So then, you've fallen for Atlantia huh?"

"Yeah i have, i was actually thinking you would be a little more ticked off than this."

"No, i was actually predicting this would happen, but what you have to do now is just lay low and try not to tell this to anyone else."

"Thanks man i knew you would understand me better, you've always been like my second brother. Also i realized that you seem a little jittery lately, what's going on?"

"Grallya will explain everything, she's actually looking for you now." i looked up at the sky and saw she was flying around, eventually she spotted me and signaled that i go back to the habitat.

"Well i guess i'll see you later man, and thanks for helping me out."

"No problem, now go." i flew back to the habitat to see that Blaze and Grallya were waiting for me."

"Jeez bro where have you been, you've been gone since yesterday." Blaze didn't look like he would just take a shrug off this time.

"Sorry, took a day off, now why did you call us here Grallya?"

"Well, i have something to tell or rather show you guys." She reached behind her and pulled out a red shelled egg with a green plant design in the middle.

"No way, is that a life dragon egg?"

"Yeah it is, Greenroot and I are going to become parents, that means you two are going to be uncles."

"Geez sis, when did this happen?" I wanted to know that answer just as much as Blaze did.

"Well you see, when we went out a few weeks ago, we found our own little spot, and a few days later i found out i was having an egg, and now here you go." we just stood there in silence for a little bit, but then we just congratulated her, i flew back to Greenroot's to give him a few words of my own.

"Well looks like now it's official, bro." That night i slept and dreamt about if Atlantia and I would ever have some dragons of our own, needless to say i woke up freaking out a few times, but other than that, i slept soundly.

Author's note: Yes it has been a while and i'm sorry but school has been crazy, i'm working on different stories of my own that aren't fanfictions but original works, i-it's just been crazy. But anyway i hope you liked this chapter, and i will try to upload the next one sooner. until next time, peace
