Anita woke up in a warm bed and saw bandages wrapped around her waist she then got up put on her clothes and limped outside the room to be greeted by her cousin." Hi artha before you ask I'm fine", she said wincing a little. artha smiled and helped her down the stairs her arm around him she looked outside to see beau greeting Crystal and she smiled but last night didn't escape her mind but she shook the thought out of her head she then limped beside artha to the front door only to be greeted by loud roars she smiled at beau, wyldfyr, cyrano and fracshun before patting crystals head only to be lifted upside down by beau." Ok! Ok I'm glad to see you too beau", she laughed. She then patted his head too and beau put her down and they all began to laugh." Well I better get Crystal ready for today's race", Anita said. Martha was shocked and looked at her as she walked over to Crystal." But your not 100% healed ", he said. Anita laughed and climbed onto Crystal back and onto her saddle smiling bravely yet her side still did hurt." I'll be fine and I'll see you guys at the track", she said. With that she waved goodbyeAnita soon left with Crystal and the two practiced on the track needing to get their bones and muscles working as well as their minds. ok at the huge gap we should use white aero gear to glide over and red rocket boosters to make us go fast. Crystal thought. Anita noded before falling off her dragon and hitting the floor she looked around to see what hit her and rolled out of the way as Crystal landed beside her." What was that!?", she asked. Instantly she felt a hand grab her shoulder and lifted her up she then heard laughter and kicked out with no success then she saw a familiar hand appear on her shoulder from behind and rolled her eyes as moordryd came into view." I got you", he said. He then released his grip on her shoulder and Anita stood up angrily and crossed her arms she didn't even know why she gave him attention but she did know that he liked it so she would put in the cold shoulder by not talking to him making it clear she was angry
Moordryd's smile vanished when he saw her angry look." Oh yeah almost forgot the push to far thing so goodbye", he said. He got back on decepshun and the two ran out of sight Anita looked back at Crystal who was smirking at her." What?", she asked. Crystal snickered and nudged Anita smiling a mischievous smile and the same were in her eyes. Anita and moordryd sitting in a tree.she thought. Anita felt her anger rising even more and tried not to hit Crystal but she must admit whenever moordryd was around she felt happy and safe." I can say the same for you and beau now let's just carry on and head to my cousin", she said. Crystal bounded over to the racers and stood beside beau but on her other side was decepshun Anita smiled at artha then waved at moordryd before the race began
Anita clinged to the saddle tightly as Crystal sped up and was soon in first place Anita then saw decepshun and moordryd were catching up and were soon pulling up beside them then moordryds eyes widened and he looked at Anita." Wraith dragons!", he warned. But it was to late the wraith dragon's hit into Crystal and made her hit the ground hard but Anita saw decepshun mag Crystal and pulled her up beside her so she could still run Anita clinged on as Crystal half limped and half ran down the track Anita looked over her shoulder scared for the first time in her life but she shook the fear off and focused again as Crystal pulled ahead of decepshun before crossing the finish line first her cousin artha was second and moordryd was third she then jumped down and saw Crystal lean to the side." Crystal are you ok!?", she asked. Crystal noded weakly and put her head lightly on Anita's shoulder so she could see her injured side. I'll be fine...A-Anita. Crystal replied. Anita shook her head as artha called for medics to treat to Crystal and that was all Anita saw before she fainted from pain in her thoughts caused by crystals pain
Moordryd watched all of this as both Crystal and Anita were taken into the medic tent he then turned to decepshun and the two left once back at his farthers secret hide out he had walked in angrily and yelled at his farther for the first time since ages." Why did you do that!? Now both Crystal and Anita are in medical care because of you!", he said. He noticed that Cain and his crew were in here too but didn't care all he wanted was to let all of his anger go on his dad and deep down he felt like a old bond was healing itself and he remembered how kindly Anita had smiled at him before the race and that made him even more angrier
Moordryd watched as his farther looked at him with shock at how much anger he had he then smirked." I thought you wanted to be a winner my son always coming first", he said. Moordryd was taken back but didn't let this get in the way of what happened he ignored the confused looks on his crew and looked straight at word." Well obviously but I don't need your help! I can win on my own! Especially now! Also I don't want you to harm other racers like Anita!", he said. He instantly covered his mouth at what he just said did he really have feelings for that stable brat he heard everything go silent and was expecting some sort of angry response but he saw word lean back in his chair in his normal pose with a evil smirk." Ahh it's this Anita girl again? Tell me now what makes this girl so special to you?", he asked.
Moordryd was shocked at this question he didn't even want to talk about her but he had to say something." She's tactical, clever, communicates with dragons and has some sort of bond with her dragon that allows them to feel each other's pain and feelings", he replied. He saw Cain couldn't control his laughter any longer and neither could the rest of his team and he frowned but everyone fell silent when word let out a silent chuckle." So the crystalline blood has been past down from my old friend into the blood of another very interesting moordryd I want you and your crew to capture this Anita girl and her dragon I want to run some few tests", he said. Moordryd noded and left with his team but outside things were no better for Cain and the others started laughing again
Anita woke up in a hospital bed in the medics tent she saw Crystal not far from her and listened to the conversation her friend's and uncle were having ." Crystals wing is badly damaged will she still be able to fly?", lance asked. Anita was shocked and close to tears she couldn't dream about not flying in the air with Crystal and now she listened even more." I'm afraid it will take 11 weeks for it to properly heal", replied parm. That made Anita smile but only just and closed her eyes again as her uncle, artha, kitt, parm and lance walked over to her bed." This is all my fault it should have been me I was the one who should have warned her", artha said. Anita could tell his voice was close to tears and she felt like crying herself
" it wasn't your fault artha you didn't know it would be this bad", kitt reassured him. Anita smiled knowing artha had friends who would try to cheer him up she then heard her uncle come closer to her bed." Anita if you could hear me I hope you recover soon", he said. Anita definitely felt like crying as her four friends and uncle left the medic tent she then opened her eyes again to see Crystal limping towards her." Are you alright girl?", she asked. Crystal noded and gently rested her head on Anita's bed to comfort her. yeah I'll be fine but it's you I'm more worried about are you sure you will be ok?. Crystal replied. Anita noded smiling and hugged Crystal weakly still smiling at having her with her
Crystal smiled and nudged Anita weakly before laying down next to her bed in a guarding position her heart in her mouth for both her rider and herself she then closed her eyes for some sleep but before she did fall asleep she made sure Anita was comfortable and with that fell asleep. ok well goodnight Anita see you in the morning . Crystal said. Anita patted Crystal gently on the head as her dragon fell asleep before turning onto her good side and pulling the covers up tight so she was nice and warm." Goodnight Crystal", she replied. They said this because it was now night time and they had been unconscious all day now Anita closed her eyes and everything faded to black
