The moment i looked up at those two pairs of eyes i knew there was no way i was gonna weasel my way out of this one. I knew there was only one option left for me to do; fly away as fast as possible. i tried to roll over and get up to fly away but they had this prepared, i was being held down by both their weights, and the extra 5 pounds of an egg.

"Well, since i'm not getting out of here anytime soon, how's about i ask you the obvious question; how did you know about me and Atlantia?" I guess that caught them off guard, they apparently thought i was seeing some random water dragon, the fact that it was Atlantia threw them off, quite literally they jumped off of me in surprise. Grallya was the one to speak up.

"Atlantia, that's who that water dragon was?!"

"You know come to think of it she did seem quite familiar when I saw her."

"But anyway, you want to know how we found out huh?"

"Well we realized that you were acting quite jittery lately, and i decided to check out where you were going; i wanted to bring Grallya along, but she couldn't leave with the egg any more than past the habitats so i decided to go. I saw that you were flying quite fast to some place, but i couldn't keep up so i decided to wait on the beach until you came back, and once you did i was really shocked to find that you were with her, so i decided to fly back and report to Grallya."

"I was thinking that you were seeing another dragoness, but Atlantia out of all dragons?! How could you turn against your own kind Inferno?" I stood up and held my ground against my two siblings, it didn't matter what they thought, i was sure that my heart was telling me right.

"You don't think that I've been wondering about the consequences too?! You don't think that night after night since first meeting Atlantia i haven't had a care in the world about what others would think?! Well i have, and i know what my heart is telling me, it tells me that what i'm doing is right, and there is nothing you two can say that can change any of that; not you, our father, or even the entire fire dragon species." I could feel myself on the verge of exploding in an emotional bomb, but i kept it cool long enough. "What we have is something you two could never experience, not with you and Breeze, not with you and Greenroot, and especially not with anybody else on this island; how could any of you understand?!." Finally the bomb went off and i broke down right in front of my brother and sister; it's funny that i would have the emotional breakdown considering i'm the oldest sibling, but i had to let it all go. After that speech and watching me slumped on the floor there was nothing those two could do except stand there and stare.

Eventually they tried to comfort me, to talk me into calmness.

"It's alright Inferno, we can understand you." Grallya tried putting a claw on my shoulder, but i just snapped on her and pushed it away.

"How could you understand, how could either of you understand?!" I stood up, spread my wings and flew away, i didn't care where i flew, just as long as i flew somewhere far from here, in my flight to escape this place i thought i could hear a voice behind me calling my name, but i just ignored it and kept going. Eventually after about twenty minutes of flying i managed to land on an island that i've never been to before, and watched the sunset. I could feel a presence behind me, and when i turned around i could see Atlantia rise out of the water behind me, the only being on this entire planet who could calm me down at this point in time.

"Inferno, i actually heard your yelling and saw you fly off in a random direction, so i decided to follow you and find out what was wrong." i looked onto those big violet eyes of hers and knew that there was no hiding the truth from her, so i told her.

"They found out about us, both Grallya and Blaze." she looked shocked and then began to look really sad; i could see her begin to form tears. i walked over to her and held her right in my arms, and then she began to cry but talk at the same time.

"Oh Inferno *sniff* i-i didn-n't think that, thi-i-is would end s-s-so quickly." i simply held her tighter and tried to reason with her.

"What are you talking about, this isn't over; we'll find a way to live this out, just the two of us, we'll find a way to make this work." All i could do was hold her and hope i was right; there had to be a way to make this work out, the two of us.

We were at the island for a while more, until i realized it was about midday. I looked down at Atlantia to see that she had stopped crying, but was still huddling against my chest.

"Come on, the day's still young, we can head back." She looked at me in surprise and shock.

"Go back, what do you mean go back?! We're outcasts Inferno, there's no way we can go back to the island, nobody will accept us there." I just looked into her eyes.

"No, only your brother, and my siblings won't like us, the others will understand, especially Greenroot."

"Won't Greenroot be surprised to find us together like this?" I just gave her a smirk and explained the whole thing.

"Greenroot's known about us since we first became good friends, he's supported us together, and even offered to help us out in case things got ugly." She had a face of surprise since she didn't know anyone else knew about us.

"So i guess we do have friends who are willing to help."

"Yeah, by now Greenroot and Breeze have made an allegiance and are at this moment trying to talk to Blaze, Grallya and Tidal right now. So the best thing to do is show them we're not afraid of living on the island together with them." She nodded in agreement and we flew off, back home.

When we got there my assumptions were confirmed, Greenroot and Breeze sat down the three of them and started to talk them out of this. We flew directly in the middle and landed right there. I was nervous but began to talk anyway.

"Hey guys, so i guess the secret's out now." I knew i wasn't gonna get anywhere with this, so i decided to let go of my nervousness and let confidence take its place. "Now i know that the three of you are against this, but i'm here to tell you guys that you're wrong about us. What's the point of this war even, i mean the five of us have been living right next to each other for nearly ten years now, and this whole war seems pointless. I mean what importance does it make if we're fire and water, they're just elements, Blaze and Breeze are two different elements, and so are Grallya and Greenroot, so why can't we be together; if that's what we want then so be it, that's how it's gonna be, and no centuries old war is going to change that."

After my speech everyone seemed to have a look of understanding on their faces, they actually seemed to accept what was going on. Then Blaze spoke to us.

"Well, it seems like you have this planned out bro, and you don't seem to be letting go anytime soon, so just to let you know, i accept you and Atlantia for what you guys are; take care of each other." Grallya stood up and spoke out as well.

"Inferno, you're right, we can't let some silly war be in between you guys, and we sure won't try and split you two, i for one am happy to welcome Atlantia as my new sister." Finally it was Tidal's turn to speak up.

"Well sis, it seems you finally found someone you want to spend your life with, and as much as i hate to say it, I genuinely like you Inferno, I say let them be."

We actually stood there in awe at what had just happened, the two of us had ended a dispute, well on the island at least, and it seemed like everyone was happy about what we had. I have a feeling this is going to be the start of something good.

Author's note: there, i updated the chapter sooner, are you happy? But anyway the reason i never really updated the last chapter for a long time was because until june i was really busy with school, and afterwards my computer was really slow and acting stupid. but now i'm back on track and ready to deliver more parts of the story and hopefully if you guys have any ideas for future ones to recommend, that would be great. as always i will see you next chapter, peace.
