~Nova~

Nova wandered aimlessly around the school. She had no intention of going to meet her new clawmates, as she preferred scavengers to dragons. Back at home, she had known three scavengers, who would come and join her on her little 'adventures' in the forest.

She had always wanted a pet scavenger, but her parents had barely enough money to feed her and her sister, let alone get a pet scavenger. Thinking of her family brought tears to her eyes. She missed them so much. She remember that awful night like it was yesterday…

~Nova's Flashback~

The IceWings had found us. We could see them getting closer, there weapons gleaming in the moonlight. Three of them had spears, and the other seven had swords. My dad, a RainWing, was holding a knife, standing in front of the house. My mother was screaming as the guards drew closer.

"Nova, Lilly, get out of here now!" She screamed at the top of her lungs.

"I'm not leaving you, mom!" Lilly had shouted back. "Nova, run!"

I stood still, watching the nearing soldiers. Lilly screamed again, but I was frozen in fear, and I didn't hear what she said. Lilly almost shoved me off the mountain, and I had to fly to avoid falling to my death.

"Wait! No, Lilly come with me! I need you!" I screamed. The IceWings were almost here. Lilly glanced at me and shook her head.

"Go." She whispered. "I love you, Nova. Please go for me." I fled, glancing back her. She stared at me for a second, then went to help Mom and Dad fight the guards. I didn't have the courage to look back.

The next day when I returned, Mom and Dad's dead body lay in a fighting position. Lilly's body was nowhere to be seen. I buried my mother and father, then I left that house for good.

Nova was jolted out of her sad memories by a voice.

"Are you ok?" asked a dragon in front of her. "What's wrong?"

Nova only then realized that tears were streaming down her face. "I-I'm fine." She said in a shaky voice.

As she focused more on the dragon in front of her, she realized it was a SandWing.

"Are you sure?" the SandWing said in a kind way.

"Ye-yeah. I'm Nova. What's your name?"

"Dusty." the SandWing said with a smile. "Are you lost?"

Nova looked around, realizing she must have been moving while she was lost in her thoughts. "Yes."

"What is your room number?"

"I think it's 1-E."

"Oh, I'm a few rooms down! Follow me!" Dusty walked down the hall, and Nova followed him. On the inside, she smiled and thought, A new friend…
