Sorry for the lack of updates, I'm just really busy with school and stuff. But anyways, leave a comment, and check out my other stories. Also, I have a Wattpad now. My story is called: The War No One Knew. This also contains characters from that, and some spoilers. So yeah, check that out, you'll love it, and now, let's get to the story.
A couple months later. Peril POV:
Well another day of training. I went to the kitchen and grabbed a quick something to eat for breakfast. I then flew to the spot where my soldiers were supposed to meet. I landed on the ground, but saw no one here. "I'll determine what punishment they'll receive." I said to myself. I first saw Cloudburst and two others come flying down. "Where's the other two?" I asked. "Rose is helping Queen Ruby, I don't know where Flameburst is." Cloudburst said. "So, where where you yesterday?" Redscale asked. "Well, I was actually off with another team to stop some assassins." I explained. "Huh? Which team?" Sunstreaker asked. "The one you don't need to know about." I said just as Rose and Redscale came flying in. "Alright. Now let's get started." I said.
So after a few hours of training them, we were all tired out. "All right guys, that's it for today, get some rest." I said dismissing them. "Captain Peril, her highness would like to see you." A messenger requested. "All be there." Welp, relaxing will have to wait. I flew to the palace and was greeted by the guards, which I nodded and smiled. It feels nice to have everyone know you in a good way after years of being scorned and hated on. I got to the palace room, where Queen Ruby, Cliff, and six unusual dragons stood. Cliff was singing keeping the dragons entertained, which has improved a lot, and Ruby was watching and smiling. "Your highness, you called?" I said making myself known. Cliff stopped singing and flew over to hug me. And the other dragons looked over. "So, who might these be? Much less what tribe?" I asked as polity as I could.
"Well, Peril, they're becoming part of the Guardians team. Meet the new recruits." Ruby said. One black, skinny nightwing-looking dragon covered with scars, maybe more than Burn, came up first. "Well nice to meet you ma'm. I'm Shadowblade of the Shadewings." he said holding his claw out for a shake. "I have fire scales, sorry." I said. "Oh you won't burn me, you're good." he said. I went to shake his claw, but instead mine went right through his. "Oops, got ya. And yes you would burn me." he said holding up his claw, which looked like a shadow. Then he sunk into a shadow in the ground, and came up through another one by the other dragons. "Interesting." I said.
He laughed, "That's not the best part. I'm an animus and I have these." then he took out some weird metal objects. "Um?" was all I could get out before a really loud and unusual noise came from them startling me. There were eight of those until they stopped, and he dropped his objects. "They're called guns, and they shot small spear like plasma bolts that could kill someone in one shot." he said. "Comforting." I said. Then a purple dragon with white dots all over with a star-shaped head came up. "Hi, I'm Nebula." she said. "I'm a starwing. And I was an arena master." I smiled saying hi to her. "And I'm Razer the Spearwing, Queen Swelter's brother, and my quiet fiend who can't talk here is Rocky the jewelwing." Razer said, and Rocky nodded. Razer had grey metal scales and black stripes running down his back and his wings. Rocky was a perfect ruby, literally. His scales were rubies. "And I'm Theif the bladewing." said the dragon whose scales moved around to try and match mine. "And My name is Giga-Joule, but Joule for short, and I'm in charge." a seriously spiny dragon with four wings and was dark blue.
"Well, these are the new recruits." Ruby said. "Well hang on, I need to see them in action first, we can't just invite anyone." I said. "Come on, there's a training ground just a little ways over here." I lead them to the training ground, with was filled it test dummies, spears, and other things. I never really bothered coming here because of my fire-scales. "Well, I guess we could get started. Shadow, you're up." I called. he chuckled and then disappeared into the ground. He then rose up behind a dummy, and shot it's head off. Then he charged in, tossing a couple dummies, shooting a bunch of others. With every few shots he just dropped his guns, and pulled out new ones. Then when he threw a set onto the ground, a bunch of shadows started to form around, him. He laughed, almost evilly, then the shadows spread out all over the ground, and a serious amount of plasma fire coming from his general spot, to all over the training ground, I actually raised a wing up so I wouldn't get hit. But it ended as soon as it started. I peeked back over to see all the dummies demolished, and a dizzy Shadowblade. "Are you ok?" I asked. "Yeah totally, I'm just not used to using this very much, makes me dizzy, seeing as I spin around at least six times when doing it." he said trotting back into the line.
"All right then, Razer you're up." I said. He immediately leaped into the air, and released an astonishing amount of fire. Much more than any skywing could produce in one blast. Then he landed with a very load crack. Then he diced a dummy with his claws, and tail. Then he sat still and said, "Fire at me." I was taken back. "Excuse me?" I asked. "Bow some fire at me." he said. "I don't wish to hurt you." I said wondering why he asked for me to blow fire at him. "Trust me, I'll be fine." he said. "Ok, if you insist." I said getting ready. I took a deep breath, then let loose my fire. I blew a lot more than I wished for, and I couldn't see Razer. I finished my volley, and he was there perfectly fine. "See, I'd be fine." he said taking his place in line. "All right then. Rocky."
He stepped up, and then viciously attacked some of the dummies, in ways I've never even considered using. He threw some dummies others, and his fire seemed to make my fire look like a dragonet's. "Well, that was interesting. I guess Thief." He smiled as he stood in the middle of the grounds. Then his scales seemed to mive and form into a sword and a shield. He let out a battle cry, and attacked the dummies. His scales were seriously sharp, and seemed to carry the strength of metal. His 'sword', cut through the dummies easily as a spear would to a real dragon. And his 'shield', he seemed to use it both defensively and offensively. A shield and a face smacker, seems like a good combination. "Ok, very impressive. So Nebula." she shyly walked out into the middle of the ground. Then her face suddenly went from shy to fierce, and she lunged at the dummies. she seemed to be skilled in claw to claw combat, then I didn't notice the small cylinders she held. They seemed to give an electric jolt and knock out enemies.
"Ok, So lastly, Joule." She jumped into the middle with a smile, almost playful. Then she shot a lightning bolt at the ground, which seemed to bounce and hit three test dummies at once. Then she launched into the air, four wings beating against the wind. Then she flew in quick circles, and then let loose many bolts of lightning hitting the remaining ten dummies. The gracefully landed and looked like nothing ever happened. "Well done you guys. I'm quick perplexed at what you six are capable of. Perhaps with a bit more training, we could be so much more. Imagine saving all of Pyrrhia one day." I congratulated. "Pleasure's all ours, Captain." Joule said. "Dismissed until further notice." I said. I can just see the look on Clay's face right now. What will he think of them though?
Then as if he read my mind, behind me he said, "I think they're going to help a lot of dragons one day." I turned to see him smiling. He hugged me, and said, "So, new recruits huh?" I smiled and hugged him back. "Yep, extra practices now. And why are you here? Shouldn't you be at Jade Mountain?" I asked. "I've talked with the others, and we all agreed that I could swing my and visit every two weeks. Only to see you my hero." he joked. "Oh stop Clay, you're making me blush." I said. We both laughed together and spent the next few hours with each other.
? POV:
I observed the newcomers from afar. They were most defiantly not from Pyrrhia. I hid in the shadows away from sight, I could see them, but they can't see me. I have a lot of patience when it comes to a target. Yes, the new guys and girls will be a problem, but I can manage. All I need to do is get to her, then I can fulfill my plan. I just need to wait for the right time though. "I will get you. One way or another." I whispered to myself. I saw them leave, and a mudwing came up to the one called Peril. He'll be the most difficult to get past, but able whatsoever. He's nothing compared to me. I just need patience, until the time is right. I smiled, and slowly crept away from my hiding spot. "Oh yes, I will fulfill my mission, even if it means having to kill someone."
