Hi again. I'm back with a nice fluffy chapter. And BTW, if you notice any of these 3 those are my hearts that keep messing up. Sorry 'bout that. Anyhoo, let's get to the story.
Citrus was visiting the Nightwing village with Fearstriker. They needed to pick up some scrolls for Glory. Scrolls on scavengers. For Deathbringer, I suppose. They landed between a row of huts, and began to make their way around.
They got lost. Even in a tiny village, Fearstriker had no sense of direction whatsoever. Citrus looked for a Nightwing to help them but they all shied away. "Hey, that's the mute hybrid mother." A particularly loud and mean one whispered. Citrus huffed, her scales burning red. "Hey! Don't you talk to her like that!" Fearstriker hissed, and the other dragon began to growl.
"No Fearstriker, please don't fight!" Citrus pleaded, and he backed down. "But.." He started. "Shh, let's just get out of here, we can tell Glory we ran into problems" They left the village, and returned to Glory.
After telling her what happened, the queen sighed. "I'm so sorry Citrus, I will talk to the Nightwings" she reassured, and walked off, muttering about disrespect and scrolls.
Late that night, Citrus sat outside. She knew that the words the dragon had said to her were just a ruse, but she couldn't help but feel sad. Did she do the right thing, having dragonets? Or what? She loved Fearstriker, but it was hard, having a whole tribe look down on her family.
Out of the hut came Fearstriker. "Thought I would find you here." He sat down next to her. Twining ther tail around his, she leaned into him. "I just want them to accept us. I hate feeling like an outsider. I don't even know what I'm feeling." The larger dragon kissed her, filling her with warmth. "Feel proud. You have two beautiful dragonet, plus me, your queen and your tribe love you, and if the Nightwings can't see your amazingness, then they should open their eyes wider. Don't let them get you down,Citrus." In the darkness, she smiled.
"You always know what to say. Thank you for everything." Citrus kissed his maw, then nuzzled him. "Anything to defend our family, and our love."
Far away, Glory gave a good slap to a certain Nightwing. Then she took a scroll, and Deathbring awoke with three new friends. He screamed, "Are you TRYING TO KILL ME!" Glory pecked him on the cheek.
I know, it's super short. But it's a oneshot. Also long live GloryBringer and CitrusStriker! (as well as Cleril!) also, sorry if it wasn't fluffy enough.
TTFN! Clearly
