Chapter 7
Back in Insomnia, Prompto is looking through a telescope, looking out for danger. Then he saw something flying towards them. Something with multiple wings.
"Hey Gladio!" he called over his shoulder.
"What!" Gladiolus called from inside.
"You might wanna come see this!" Prompto called back.
Gladiolus quickly walked out onto the balcony. Prompto moved aside to let Gladiolus see through the telescope.
"What is that?" Gladiolus asked as he raised his head away from the telescope.
"What's going on?" Cor said as he walked out onto the balcony.
"There's something coming straight at us." Prompto said.
Cor looked through the telescope and then he raised his head.
"Gladio, Prompto, be prepared to go into battle." Cor said.
All three looked out at the giant flock of dragons flying their way.
Silver stood there, breathing hard, exhausted. All around him were dead bodies of the dark dragons.
"Silver? Are you alright?" Ignis asked.
Silver sat on his haunches. "Yeah. I'm fine." he said.
"What type of power did you use?" Ignis asked.
"A Light Spell. We are Light Dragons. We have a power inside us to defend ourselves from darkness. Leora dragons are able to produce light from the sun. Orpheuse produce their power from the moon." Silver explained.
"So you're telling me that Moonrise has the same ability?" Ignis asked.
"Yes. And the Orpheus power." Silver added.
"Orpheus power?" Ignis asked.
"Yes. She's part Orpheuse. Meaning she can do both Light Solar and Dark Mist." Silver said.
"Then we must save her." Ignis said.
"But how? I don't know where he went?" Silver asked.
"I'm assuming he went to Insomnia in Lucis. You can fly me there." Ignis said as he hopped onto Silver.
"But I don't know how to get there. And you can't lead." Silver said, not wanting to add that he's blind.
"You may be right but I just seem to know exactly which direction to go." Ignis said.
"Alright." Silver responded. He spread his wings and took off.
Cor, Gladiolus, and Prompto were at the bottom of the stairs to the Citadel when Shadow, Moonrise, and his thousands of dragons landed.
"Shadow." Cor said calmly but seriously.
"Ah. Insomnia. How long has it been since I've last been here?" Shadow asked. Behind him, Moonrise is being held by two dragons.
"Let her go Shadow. She has no reason to be with you." Cor said.
"Of course she does. She is my daughter after all." Shadow said.
"Uh...daughter?" Prompto asked, confused.
"What did you do to Ignis!" Gladiolus asked aggressively.
"Oh him. He should be long gone by now." Shadow said.
"What did you say!" Gladiolus asked. He was so ready to take on Shadow.
"Gladio! He's okay! He's fine!" Moonrise said.
"you just don't know when to quit, do you!" Shadow said angrily. Shadow grabbed her wing and twisted it, breaking it. Moonrise yelled in agony and crumpled to her knees.
"Why you-!" Gladiolus said as he summoned his Greatsword.
"Orpheus. Attack." Shadow said and all the Orpheus dragons attacked.
Moonrise summoned a dagger and plunged it into Shadow's side. He yelled in pain.
"Go! Get to the Crystal!" Moonrise shouted to the three.
Cor nodded and said "Let's go!"
The three ran up into the Citadel, heading towards the Crystal.
Shadow took the dagger out and glared at Moonrise.
"Looks like I'll force you to obey me." Shadow said darkly.
Moonrise looked back at him with fear.
