Chapter 2

AN-Welcome back there is not much to say but there is a time skip because Moon flying by herself is not very interesting.

When Moonwatcher awoke that morning she had hoped that what had happened had all been a bad dream. But when she went to where she had placed the letter the night before it all came rushing back. Learning that Turtle had gone and killed so many innocent dragons. Moon could not help but feel responsible.

"You cannot control what an animus dragon does with their power Moon."

"But maybe I could have helped him, the way he helped Anemone."

"Anemone was not going to kill Queen Coral because she was losing her soul, she was a little power hungry."

"So were you, back when you tried to take the throne from Queen Vigilance."

"Vigilance was not a fit leader, she had a party every other night and unless you were always invited before she got addicted to alcohol you would have been a laughingstock. The only reason that she and her daughters did not waste the kingdom's money on parties was because she had an unlimited amount of supplies from me. I cannot tell you how many times I tried to disable that enchantment. In Fact the rest of the tribe would have backed me if I did not make Arctic kill himself."

"The books never mention that side of Queen Vigilance," Moon replied.

"You think the nightwings would have let that fact about them get known. That the Queen and all of her heirs were in no way fit to have the throne. Moon we were and are a very prideful tribe. Me, Clearsight and Viglance's most trusted general were running the entire war effort against the icewings because Vigilance just had to have her wine and her men."

"And yet none of that explains why you made Arctic kill himself like that."

"Now then, let me tell you the full story. Arctic was the most evil icewing I had ever seen. He did not care that dragons from his tribe were dying. All he cared about was power. Until it was discovered I was an animus he was one of Vigilance's most valuable assets. Then I replaced him. That seemed to make him hate me even more. The only reason My parents were allowed in the night kingdom was because Arctic was an animus. When mothe was trapped by that bitch Diamond I took Whiteout and we went to my room in the palace, where we would be safe from his wrath."

"Three moons, I never realized that was what happened to you, but I best get going Darkstalker. I'll come back after the event."

Moon then went to her window and started to fly to where Jade Mountain Academy was. She flew for hours only stopping to eat and drink. When the sky began to darken she landed and slept to recharge, before she could start flying again. When she finally got to The entrance of JMA she noticed that the only dragon there was the skywing caretaker.

"What happened, where is everyone," Moon asked the old skywing

"You must have not been here dear, are you sure you want to know what happened?"

"Of course I do, why are there no other dragons here?"

"A couple of nights ago some crazy sandwing animus came here and killed 20 dragonets, before killing herself while proclaiming about how great and wonderful the seawing prince that tried to take the throne was. It was truly a horrific sight. But you know what was strange? She killed only two dragonets for each tribe. Of course Jade Mountain Academy can't stay open much longer, now then who are you,"

"I am Moonwatcher," Moon said in an astonished voice.

"Ahhh, your friends told me to tell you to meet them in the rainwing village, at Queen Glory's palace."

Moonwatcher then took off wondering why this had been happening. Did Turtle really do something to make Jerboa do this? It was a while before she noticed that she was automatically flying to where the rainforest and where her friends would be.

AN-So Moon had a chat with Darkstalker and yes everything he said was infcat cannon to this AU Arctic was the biggest asshole he could be and Vigilance and her daughters spent more time drinking and hooking up with random nightwing men than running the kingdom.
