The torrent of rain seemed to go on for hours Silent Storm paced back and forth watching not noticing the slow moving shadow behind her,nor hearing the scrape of claws on crystal over the thunder. Her focus on her mission would be near fatal as she turned just in time to see the dragons claws strike at her,they hit with such force she was powered into the far wall landing with a thud; the jade bracelet on her ankle shattered and she lay still barely breathing.

The dragon sniffed her over, then satisfied with his work strolled out into the rain spreading his great wings,he pushed himself skyward he'd done his job shadowing the stupid filly for three days seeing what she was going to do with the information here teachers had gathered. Now he could return to his leader and claim his reward for dealing with the little wretch. He himself could care less what the ponies would do before they took back over the land,they were but stones on a path to him easily crushed and brushed aside. He landed back at the dragon camp and folded his wings bowing his head he addressed a silver dragon with soft blue eyes. "It is done Saven the little pony is no more, I still say we should..."

"Enough Nightwind you have done your part now go fill your belly and leave the attack plan to me."The silver dragons sharp voice cut in before the other could finish so dejected and a bit annoyed the other trotted off to the mounds of meat in the corner of the field.

"Soon our brothers will join us,no longer will they serve the ponies as slaves to their princesses, no longer will our great leader Artimis' son Spike tend to their queen's every need soon the true masters of this land will surface, and the ponies will lie at our feet where they belong as servants to Master Tirek & us."he had said his words to do one in particular just in general so that every one of the dragons could hear him.

As the dragon spoke to his gathered crowd some where far away the centaur demon Tirek stirred and chuckled to himself as he held close a black crystal and stroked it almost lovingly." Soon my pet soon you the heart of Darkness will replace the Heart of Ponyland and all of it will fall to us; and the dragons will receive their reward as my slaves to keep it all in order. Foolish beasts bent on "saving" their own kind."
