(The IceWing Prophecy)

When darkness falls upon the land,

When dragons fight for a rightful Queen.

Three sisters, two will fall,

And one is left standing alone.

Wings of Night, ice and Rain,

Wings of Sea, Sky and future sight.

Find the dragons of full moons bright,

Fear the dragons of Night and Ice.

Fear the ones who seek to conquer.

These dragons will end this fight of blood and tears,

These dragons will change the fate of this destroyed land,

They will be the peacemakers in this land of darkness and betrayal.

These dragons will find the eye that sees the truth.

Together these dragons form the Wings of Fire.

And the time for peace will be right.

The RainWing Kingdom

"Three moons. Why did it have to rain?" Mango complained. We had decided a while ago to walk instead of trying to fly in the poring rain.

"Huh? I thought you would love the rain Mango?" Tempest said, tilting her head to the sidd in confusion. I agreed with Mango, I hated the rain.

"Well, RainWings hate rain, at least I hate rain anyways. Are we almost ther yet Winter?" Mango asked in exasperation. I sighed in frustration at the rain pouring down on us.

"I think we're getting close, I agree with you Mango, I don't like rain very much. It's to wet and muddy." I complained, my tail twitching in discomfort.

"You're an IceWing, but I have no idea what you like in terms of weather." Tempest said, I just shook my head and replied.

"I like snow and cold temperatures. Obviously." I remarcked sarcastically, rolling my eyes.

"Hay Winter? Do you know the story of Darkstalker?" Shadow asked, breaking the silance that had fallen. I turned to the NightWing with a puzzled look.

"I know a little, but why'd you ask that?" I asked, tilting my head in curiosity.

"Well, he was an animas, like you. He was also an IceWing/NightWing hybrid." Shadow explained. My eyes widened in shock and surprise.

"R-really? But he was evil, and Clearsight ended up trapping him inside of Aggit Mountain. I read about it in a scroll." I said, looking at Shadow.

"Hay, where'd Tempest go? She was here a second ago." Cynder said, as she looked around for the blue SeaWing. I looked around as well, then a second later, Cynder was gone, then another second later, so was Shadow. I looked at Mango in alarm.

"Hay! Who's there? Come out now!" Mango yelled, her fangs bared threateningly. Two laughs were heard and suddenly, two older RainWings appeared in the trees.

"Are... are... are we you're p-p-prisoners?" I stuttered out. I blinked in confusion. Why do I suddenly feel very hot and tire? I wondered, as I rubbed my suddenly heavy eyelids with my talons. I felt myself falling, and the feeling of someone catching me. The last thing I saw was the worried faces of the older RainWings, and the panicked face of Mango, then everything went dark.

"Winter!" Mango yelled, beginning to panic. She then turned to the two older RainWings. But before she could open her mouth, the blue colored RainWing spoke in a calming voice.

"Please, calm down little one. Her scales just became to warm, IceWings don't handle warm weather very well." The blue RainWing explained, as she carefully lifted the hybrid dragonet onto her back.

"Hay, wait! Where are we going? Are my friends going to be okay?" Mango asked, as they flew quickly through the trees, sunlight was peaking through the leaves, causing Mango to smile. The pink colored RainWing was the one who answered.

"To The Rainforest, where else?" He said, a wide grin on his face. Mango just sighed and rolled her eyes.

"Wow, It's so Beautiful here! I can't Believe I have missed seeing the sun and trees and all of these amazing things." Mango exclaimed cheerfully as she flew around the forest in wide circles.

"Now It's sun time!" Janbu exclaimed cheerfully, and he settled down comfortably in a high tree that had a raise of shining sunlight pecking through the leaves. Mango tilted her head in confusion.

"Sun time? What's that?" She asked. Janbu just laughed and replied.

"You really don't know what sun time is?" He asked, Mango just gave him a confused look.

"Well kid, sun time is when we find a good place where the sun shines best, and then we sleep." Mango nodded, understanding somewhat.

Mango curled up near a warm sunny spot and let it warm her scales. She smiled in happiness and contentment. Her friends would be waking up soon, It wouldn't hurt to take a small nap... would it?

Mango awoke to a whimpering sound, and then a yelp of pain. She slowly opened her tired eyes, her eyes popped wide open at what she saw. Her scales turned blue and gray.

"W-Winter!" She yelled in a panic, her yell startled Janbu awake and he almost fell out of the tree.

"What's all the shouting about Mango? Is everything oka-" he paled, scales going blue and gray just like Mango's.

"Oh, three moons! This is not good, not good at all! We need to cool her down, NOW!" He then rushed off to get some cold water.

"What's wrong with her?" Mango asked, once Janbu had returned with a boll of water. The older RainWing looked up from his task to answer the frantic Dragonet's question.

"Well the sun had shined on her scales, sure it's pretty, but not for an IceWing. Even if she's a hybrid, her scales can't absorb to much heat." Once Janbu finished explaining, he went back to cooling the IceWing's scales.

"But why do they need to be cooled off?" Mango asked in confusion.

"Because, if an IceWing's scales get to warm, they will start to slowly melt. If that happens... well I'm sure you can guess what will happen." Janbu said, continuing to poor water onto the hybrid dragonet's scales.

"Oh no, she has a fever, we need some ice." Janbu said in a panic.

"But how would we get ice?" Mango asked, from beside Janbu. He looked around for a moment before replying.

"Well, we have cold water, but we need to freeze it somehow." He said.

"Hay, where are we?" The two dragons turned to see the other dragonets sitting up in alert and confusion.

"We're in the Rain Forest." Mango replied with a grin. After a moment of awkward silence, Cynder spoke up.

"Where's Winter?" The SkyWing asked, she spotted a glimpse of black and pale blue scales.

"You're friend will be alright, she just needs rest." Janbu said after a moment. Tempest approached to get a closer look at the hybrid dragonet.

"She looks fine, I mean what could be... ouch, okay never mind. Her scales are really hot." The SeaWing pointed out as she pulled her talon away from her friends wings.

"Wait but why can't we go search for the missing RainWings?" Tempest asked in confusion and a bit of irritation.

"I'm sure there fine, and what's the point?" The RainWing queen replied lazily, as she petted her pet sloth.

"Okay, we understand. Thank you anyways Queen Sundue." Cynder said, and they all walked out of the RanWing queens tree.

"Well this doesn't feel right, we can't just sit back and do nothing." Mango exclaimed, her tail flicking back and forth.

"I wish Winter was here, she'd know what to do." Tempest remarked in an attempt to brake the ice.

"Yeah, I think the RainWing Queen needs to cool off." Cynder said, looking back in the direction of the Queens treehouse.

"Winter would be unamused at you're comment." Tempest remarked, Cynder just rolled her golden eyes in response.

"What's wrong with making IceWing puns?" The SkyWing asked in amusement.

"We're getting off topic, let's go see how Winter's doing. Then if she's feeling better, we can go look for the missing RainWings." Mango said, and they all headed to check on their IceWing companion.

When they arrived, they saw that Winter was awake, and another RainWing was checking the hybrid over.

"Okay, you're good to go. But remember, keep the frost on you're wings until they've fully recovered." The lavender and teal RainWing scolded gently.

"Alright, I understand, thank you very much Citrus." Winter replied, she gave a polite smile to the RainWing healer. The hybrid then carefully flew to join us. She then landed on one of the platforms.

"So, now what?" I asked, tilting my head. Tempest was the one to answer.

"Some of the RainWings have gone missing. We're going to look for them." The SeWing explained, I nodded in understanding.

"Yes, we need to find the missing RainWings, but first, I think It's time that the RainWings get a new queen to lead them. No offense mango, but there all lazy bums." I said, my tail swishing back and forth.

"No offense takin, I agree, they're lazy bums. But who are you suggesting to be the new RainWing Quern?" Mango asked in confusion.

"Who do you think Mango? I'm talking about you silly." Winter replied rolling her eyes in response.

"Wait, me?" Mango exclaimed in surprise.

"Duh, who else would we be talking about?" Cynder deadpanned while Winter and Tempest just shook their heads in amusement.

"But... The RainWings..." mango replied in protest as I pulled her to talk with the lazy queen, the others following.

"We'll worry about that later, but we'll need more RainWings to help us." I remarked, as we nocked on the door, or curtain, or whatever it was.

"Oh, you're back? And who's this?" Sundue asked. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes, as I replied calmly.

"My name is Winter, It's very nice to meet you Queen Sundue." I bit out in a cool tone, no pun intended.

"Oh, an IceWing, how rare." The Queen said happily, I just blew a plume of frost in exasperation.

"Now what brings you all back here?" Sundue asked, in a bored tone.

"Never mind, we'll leave you be, It was nice meeting you Queen Sundue." I said, in a cool tone of voice.
