Hay everyone! I'm sorry, it's been a few days since the last update. I hope you will enjoy this chapter. The QUARTZ WINGLET Will be researching about three mysterious dragon tribes, the DawnWings, ShadeWings, and the DuskWings. I hope you enjoy. Now, without further ado, let's take flight.
oOo
I sighed in complete boredom. (I want class to be over already!) i thought, as I rested my head on the desk. "QUARTZ WINGLET? Have you decided on a topic for your history project yet?" Both Peacemaker and I looked up at Webs question. "Yes, we decided to do a project about the war between the DawnWings and the ShadeWings." Ermine spoke up quietly, but clearly..
"Wow, that's an interesting topic, that tribe hasn't been heard of for ages. Can't wait to see what you dragonet's come up with." Webs said, sounding intrigued. Nightwave and I grinned in both satisfaction and excitement.
"Hay, Tempest? Shouldn't we start working on our history project now?" I blinked and nodded, and Peacemaker and I, along with Cynder, Ermine, Reed, and Onyx made our way to the study cave.
ERMINE
I let out a sigh and looked up at Tempest with concerned eyes. "What's wrong, Ermine?" She asked, looking at me in worry. I replied quietly.
"U-um... What are DawnWings and ShadeWings? And are they dangerous?" I asked, fidgeting with my necklace nervously.
Tempest frowned, and replied in a a motherly tone. "I don't think so, Ermine. I've never met them before." The SeaWing replied with a laugh. I slowly relaxed and returned to writing notes for my upcoming math quiz.
I awoke early that morning with a gasp. I sat up sharply, my breathes coming out in rapid pants. I curled up into a tight ball. I sat up again when I felt a pair of cold talons gently shake my shoulder. I looked up to see Tempest. I blinked, then shortly after I saw Peacemaker, Cynder, Reed, and Onyx follow close behind.
"Ermine? Are you alright?" Cynder asked, looking at me with concerned golden eyes. I slowly nodded and replied, "i just had a bad dream. That's all," I said, lowering my head. Tempest frowned and put a comforting wing around me. I sighed and welcomed the embrace of both Peacemaker and Tempest.
PEACEMAKER
"I-I-I can't d-do I-It." I squeaked, looking at Tempest with nervous pale blue eyes. Tempest gave me a reassuring smile. "Your starting to sound like Ermine. Don't worry so much. You'll do fine. I Believe in you, we'll be up ther with Auburn and Ermine." Tempest said, smiling at me gently. I gave a shaky sigh, and tried to stop my wings from shaking.
"I... I'm not sure that I'll be able to do this," I said. I was never good speaking in front of other dragons. I fiddled with my necklace nervously, it was a habit that I had started to develop, just like Ermine.
Tempest gave me a worried look. I tried to give a reassuring smile, but my nerves had the best of me. I lowered my head and tried once again to calm myself down. "You have stage fright?" Auburn asked, in concern and I lowered my head even more. The SkyWing's observation was spot on. "Next up, Quartz Winglet." Webs announced. And I froze. But Tempest guided me to the front of the class, with both Auburn and Ermine following close behind. "Well, our project is about the war between the DawnWings and ShadeWings..." Tempest began slowly. I sighed and gave my friend a soft but gilty smile.
"We discovered an interesting fact. A scavenger, and four young dragonet's were able to chase off a group of DawnWings and DuskWings. After two hours of fighting. And what was even more strange? Was that the scavenger girl had strange powers." Tempest said, by this point everyone in the classroom was listening intently. After a few moments of silence, Auburn spoke up next, "That's all we know of so far, but one of the dragonet's was a ShadeWing named Eclipse." The SkyWing announced, grinning widely.
"A-and t-that's a-all w-we k-know a-about t-them," I stuttered out, looking down at my talons nervously. And with that, the class just sat in stunned silence and amazement. and excitement. I blushed and lowered my head in embarrassment. At least it's over, I'm so glad. I thought in relief.
oOo
If you have read my story, A ShadeWing's Tale, then you guys would know somewhat about the DawnWings and the ShadeWings. I hope you like my idea for the QUARTZ WINGLET'S project.
