The Hybrid Prophecy, Book 1

by frostbiteicewing

My first fan fiction! Watch Scorch and his friends as they fulfill the prophecy that will stop the 30-year war. They will face many dangers and perils as they find hidden powers (there should be no Mary/Gary Sues) and journey through Pyhrria. Rated T to be safe. I do not any of Tui T. Sutherland's characters or writing or anything else.

Chapter 17

Part 1

"Are you kidding me? Why would we want a preferred killer in our group?" Komodo flared. "I'm not a preferred killer. In fact, I tried to bring them back." Shimmer murmured. Hmm…

"What do you mean, bring them back?" Hurricane questioned.

"Could we take this conversation somewhere else? You know, somewhere we won't get ambushed by raging SkyWing soldiers?" Scorch interrupted.

"I know a place!" Shimmer exclaimed, her body swiveling towards the waterfall where the soldiers dumped the dead arena bodies. "Follow me!"

"Why are we actually following the psychopath? Shouldn't we be trying just to leave?"

"The one closest to being a psychopath around here is Scarlet and you." Phantom defended. Why in the three moons is he defending her? "Besides, she's telling the truth." he said quietly, and after some questioning looks, he rolled his eyes and said, "I sensed it."

They dove down to a cave near the rushing, flowing streams. "In here!" Shimmer stood in front of the cave and ushered them in, carefully avoiding the water and the small droplets that sprayed from the falls. After she ran in behind them, Scorch heard crack and the whole cave was lit by her claws. Tiny bolts sparked off.

"Are you sure no one will find us down here?" Hurricane asked, scooting closer to her friends with her claws flexing.

"Yeah. The soldiers won't look where they dump all the slaughtered dragons." Shimmer replied sadly. Maybe by you? Scorch thought as he and his companions scooched closer together.

"So. Are you all ready for a story?" Shimmer asked, the light illuminating the golden scales on her face.

Komodo snorted and said, "Make it quick." The sounds of soldiers clashing with prisoners rang in their ears. Screams and roars filled the air, reverberating around the closed in walls of the cave. I really hope they don't find us in here.

"Okay. It all started when…"

TO BE CONTINUED

Now you can find out about Shimmer's past too! If you need to know the rest of the dragonets' years growing up, think about the actual book. It is almost the same, except with all the guardians. Oh, by the way, do any of you guys think Shimmer is evil? Just wondering.
