Hi! I am trying to update this as many times as possible and as fast as I can! If you would like the dragonets to fight one of your characters in the arena, PM me or put it in the reviews. Please do not be angry if one of your characters do not show up!

Chapter 5

Despite the imminent fear of being killed at any moment, Scorch was enjoying the actual flight. I am a half-SkyWing…He felt the wind billow under his wings and flowing along his aerodynamic body. I could fly like this forev-wait, Scorch, control yourself. You are flying towards probably immediate death. And possibly, home?

He felt the soldiers tilt downward, as if to land, and saw what they were aiming for. There was a humongous sand pit, surrounded by towering stone pillars and a gold and gem laden castle. He realized that there were chained blue, green, pale yellow, and even some red/orange dragons strapped together by an enigma of chains on the tops of those pillars. Then he also realized the sand was splattered with blood

It was the arena. There were no dragons fighting currently, probably because the queen was not able to watch their 'thrilling' battles. "BRING THEM HERE!" Scarlet yelled, landing near a giant throne.

The dragonets landed next to it while Scarlet ran inside the palace, and a few minutes later came out with a golden-wired chest plate with rubies attached to it. Komodo was also taken into the castle for an unknown reason and wasn't taken out. The guardians were taken to empty towers.

"Now. Who wants to have a thrilling fight first?" Scorch looked around at his friends, too scared to say anything. Hurricane was about to speak up, but he realized that he did not want to see his friends die. "I'll go!" he blurted.

Scarlet eyed him, looking impressed. His adopted brother and sister looked surprised and worried (at least, Hurricane did). "Scorch, no!" Hurricane yelped. "Take them to their cages," Scarlet ordered the soldiers. "And you," she said motioning to Scorch, "Come with me."

Scorch's life flashed before his eyes. He would have been frozen in place, besides the fact that he was too afraid of the arena queen's wrath.

Scarlet led him to a stairway halfway between the arena and the castle, where there were bands lined up on racks. I wonder what those are for. Scarlet motioned to some soldiers at the top, who grabbed the bands and clamped them on his wings. Oh.

She told the guards to bring her art, whatever that was, to the throne, which overlooked the whole arena. Once they reached the pit, Scorch was shoved into the sand, which sent strange shimmers of energy through his body. He shook the sand out of his ears just as a seemingly bigger, redder, male version of Scarlet landed in the middle of the arena. Some soldiers were dragging a thrashing, silver body into the arena.

The red dragon proudly called out to a SkyWing, SandWing, and MudWing crowd in the stands, "Whooooo's ready for a bloody, gory battle?" The crowd cheered. "Introducing Scorch, the dragonet of prophecy! Which he might not be fulfilling now, right?" That's extremely helpful. "And our other competitor, battling for the third time, the IceWing…"

Cliffhanger! If you want your character to fight Scorch, send them in! Warning: They might die…
