The talons of the black dragon pounded against the ground of the rainforest. In the mouth of the NightWing, a blanket was held there. A small dragonet was wrapped around it. The dragonet slept quietly as the NightWing ran. The rainforest was dark as sky was full of stars. She made sure to run silently as she dashed past slumbering RainWings. The NightWing didn't want to wake anyone up. She had to go undiscovered. The NightWing successfully dodged trees, bushes, and whatever might have been in the way. The NightWing breathed heavily after a long time of running.
The NightWing looked up at the night sky. Her eyes widened with panic. The moon in the sky started to come down. Daylight would come soon. She needed to hurry so she could return to the Night Village in one piece. She knew if her family found out about this dragonet, she wouldn't make it out alive. The NightWing picked up her pace. She didn't care that she was tired, This was much more important to the NightWing.
She sighed with relief when she passed through all of the sleeping RainWings. She looked ahead to see Glory's hut. It was almost near. The NightWing suddenly paused. She saw two RainWings that were wide away. The NightWing spread open her wings. She flung herself up in the treetops. The NightWing climbed over the trees, avoiding the RainWings. The NightWing looked down to see the RainWings walking off to their hammocks to sleep in. The NightWing dived down to the ground, and then ran toward Queen Glory's hut.
The NightWing stared at the hut for a while. It was much bigger than when Glory first became queen. It now had doors and was much bigger. The NightWing sighed as she placed down her dragonet wrapped in a soft blanket. The dragonet started to open his bright green eyes. The dragonet started to squirm around, trying to get to the NightWing. The NightWing jumped back. She gently pressed her palm on top of the dragonet's head, trying to keep him back.
"No, you have to stay here. My family can't see what you are." the NightWing told the dragonet.
The NightWing wrapped the blanket tightly around the body of the dragonet. She placed him down in front of the door. The NightWing lifted up her talons. She pressed them against the door. At first, the NightWing hesitated. She looked down at her dragonet. She then looked back at the door. She sighed. The NightWing sighed. She loudly knocked on the door. She made sure it was loud enough for someone to hear. The NightWing paused. She then heard a dragon walking over. The NightWing lunged into a bush. She quickly crawled up a tree, looking down on Glory's hut.
She watched as the door slowly opened. The NightWing looked to see Deathbringer's head sticking out of the entrance of the hut. He looked to the sides, and then looked down. Deathbringer flinched when he saw the dragonet. Deathbringer fully stepped out of the hut. He looked around, seeing if any other dragons were around. The NightWing kept herself blended into the shadows. She didn't want Deathbringer to notice her.
Deathbringer looked down at the dragonet. He quickly picked up the dragonet, unwrapping it from the blanket. The dragonet squirmed around in Deathbringer's grasp. Deathbringer glanced around once again. Deathbringer then quickly went back into the hut. The door was closed completely. Once it was closed, the NightWing quickly ran off. She didn't bother to look back. She knew that her dragonet was safe, and that was all that mattered.
