Galaxy was soon able to catch up with Firefly. He breathed heavily. Firefly looked over at him when she saw Galaxy. When Galaxy was able to catch his breath, Firefly spoke to him. When Galaxy was able to, he looked over to see that some blackberries were hanging on a nearby branch. He used his wing to pick up a couple of them. Galaxy shoved them in his mouth and swallowed him. He looked over at Firefly.
"What took you so long?" Firefly questioned.
"Mother just wanted to talk to me. Nothing much." Galaxy responded back.
"Oooo, are you in trouble?" she giggled.
"No, I'm not. She just wanted to talk to me, that's all." he said.
"Ooooo, I can tell you're lying. I know you're in trouble!" Firefly chuckled.
"No, I'm not! Stop acting so immature." Galaxy snapped.
"Hey, you two, stop fighting and come over here!"
The two swung their head over. They saw Ocelot shoving his way through a bush. His scales were a mix between red and black. Firefly and Galaxy both froze as they looked at Ocelot. He glared at the two dragons. Ocelot started to walk toward them.
"Well, what do you have to say for yourself now?" Ocelot hissed.
"Sorry, Ocelot." Firefly and Galaxy both said to Ocelot.
"Good." the RainWing spoke. His scales turned back to what they regularly looked. His scales were copper with black spots over them. Ocelot's scales under his wings were always a flaming orange. Galaxy knew how much the RainWing wanted to look an ocelot since that was his name after all.
"Is training going to start?" Firefly questioned.
Ocelot nodded. "Now follow me. No complaining."
The two dragonets followed behind Ocelot. Ocelot just walked, knowing that Firefly and Galaxy couldn't tree glide and how it would be hard to fly. "I can't believe that these pathetic dragonets are the children of the queen." Galaxy heard Ocelot mutter under his breath as he walked.
Firefly and Galaxy soon arrived at the training grounds. Ocelot sat down in the center of it. They walked up to the RainWing, awaiting what they would have to do. Ocelot looked over at Firefly, his eyes squinting. Firefly waited for what he had to say, but Galaxy noticed that she did show signs of being slightly nervous.
"What happened to your old trainer for tree gliding and venom shooting?" asked Ocelot.
"Well, Blackberry told my mother that she was done with training me, so I'm sort of know with you." Firefly explained.
"Wouldn't have blamed her." Ocelot sighed.
"So, what are we learning exactly with you?" Galaxy questioned.
"Tree gliding." he simply replied back.
Ocelot lunged up. His tail curled up around one of the branches. The RainWing swung his way over to one of the thicker branches. Ocelot perched up one a branch that was higher than some of the thicker ones. Ocelot pushed some of the branches to the side, allowing the two thickest ones to show. Firefly and Galaxy made their way closer. When the two branches were spaced out, Ocelot leaned back.
"Jump back and forth from these branches now. You should know how to do this." Ocelot explained.
Galaxy tensed. He flopped his tail in front of him. He wasn't sure how he was supposed to tree glide with a tail that was like a NightWing's. It would be impossible for him to do so. Galaxy stepped back, hoping that Firefly would end up going first. He just wanted to wait, even know he already knew he was going to fail it.
Ocelot's eyes looked at Firefly. "You go first."
Galaxy held back his sigh of relief as Firefly stepped ahead. Ocelot most likely picked her because Firefly's tail was more RainWing-like. Firefly's wings spread open as she looked up at the branches. She took a deep breath before lunging up. Her tail wrapped around one of the branches. Firefly was quick to shut her wings to leave more room for her to glide. When her tail was fully around the branch. Firefly lunged for the next. She slightly opened her wings to let herself glide to the next.
"Don't open your wings too much!" Ocelot shouted to Firefly.
Firefly nodded quickly as her wings closed. Her tail wrapped around the other branch. When it did, Firefly was quick to move her body to face the other branch. Firefly twisted her body at the wrong direction. Her body flopped over the branch, her tail wrapping around the branch still. Ocelot grunted as he looked down at Firefly.
"You're doing it all wrong! Your body is all wrong. Just, get off now. It's Galaxy's time to do this." he growled.
Galaxy jumped. Firefly sighed as she spread her wings opened. Firefly dived down to the ground. She made her way to where Galaxy sat. Galaxy took a deep breath. He walked over to the branches. Galaxy then looked at his tail. He wasn't sure how well he was going to do this with a NightWing-like tail. He stood there for a couple of minutes.
"Well?" Ocelot hissed.
Galaxy jumped. He took another deep breath. He spread open his wings as wide as he could. He then leapt up, flapping his wings as he did so. When Galaxy's tail slightly wrapped around the first branch, he kept his wings open slightly. It was enough for him to keep flapping his wings to stay in the air. Galaxy was quick to fly over to the next branch. Galaxy kept his wings opened as he went to the next branch.
"Keep your wings closed!" Galaxy heard the RainWing yell.
Galaxy flinched. He closed his wings fully when he went to the second branch. His tail just flopped over the branch, but it didn't wrap around it long enough. Galaxy fell straight to the ground. Ocelot grunted with annoyance as he flied next to Galaxy.
"What was that?" Ocelot growled at Galaxy as he bent down to look at him
