Well, it's time to finish the book, but do not be sad. This is just book 1 of 4, and that will be started before school begins for me, which is earlier than last year for some reasons. I'll also be doing something called Not Always Alone: Summer Tales. Just one chapter stories of things that happen with the group of the four month period of freedom.

(No POV)

The cave was dark, wet, and all around miserable. It was especially for the SeaWing chained to a chair implanted in the ground. His head was hung low, waiting for anything to happen. A miracle, perhaps, because his animus magic didn't effect his chances of escape anymore. His unique power was nothing but useless to him right now. Soon, he heard sounds of talon steps approaching, but he didn't move his head. He already knew who it was, and things were not going to end well if he didn't get out of here soon enough. The previous torture sessions left him with multiple cuts on the body and face and some burns. Dried blood rested on his cheeks and below the lips of his mouth.

Hesitantly, he decided to look at the one before him, but he couldn't see who it was. The body resembled a NightWing, but the facial identity was anonymous from his perspective. The SeaWing didn't bother asking his name, because he felt sure he wouldn't be around long enough to hear it.

"Hello there," the NightWing greeted him. "My apologies for these conditions, but I need to some things." He began to pace from right to left in front of the SeaWing, who eyes him cautiously and fearfully. "Do you know an easy way into the SeaWing Palace?"

"Kill me now. I am loyal to the SeaWing throne, and no amount of torture will ever make me betray my Queen," the SeaWing growled, spitting at the dark figure. His night vision eyes were looking for a way out of the cave he was in; he wanted to be free, and he wouldn't get it without a fight.

"Oh?" The NightWing interrupted his thought. "You want to go free? Well, why didn't you ask." The captor snapped his fingers, and the chains loosened, falling to the ground. The SeaWing couldn't believe his eyes: the cloaked dragon could read his mind. "No, no. There are some of us out there, but we are very few in numbers. Now, feel free to go."

The prisoner looked around, but then attacked the NightWing with full force. A split second later he was thrown into the chair and the chains wrapped around him tighter. The NightWing laughed at his failed and useless attempt of attack.

"Oh, Albatross, Prince of the SeaWings," he began, cackling at the mere thought of being overwhelmed by the SeaWing in front of him. "I thought you were a lot smarter than that. Now, your foolish decision has now made it very clear on what I should do. The NightWing raised his claw and rested it on the Albatross' forehead.

Seconds later, the SeaWing felt sharp, burning pain enter his body through that spot, gasping. Soon, the SeaWing Prince was experience nothing but searing pain, trying to fidget and shake off the chair. The chains wouldn't allow so, and Albatross soon began to scream in pain. "Help me! Someone! HELP!"

"No one is going to hear you, almighty Prince," the NightWing told him, who was wearing an eerie grin. This happened for a solid minute before the NightWing released the SeaWing's head from his claw. Looking at the Prince, he asked one question: "How do you feel, Albatross?"

There was no reply. Instead, all the NightWing saw was an emotionless expression on his face. The cloaked figure began to laugh, before stopping it short and making his appearance known to the SeaWing.

"Albatross, when the time comes, you will do what I say, and I don't care if it affects your family." The NightWing told him, and the old SeaWing Prince looked up and nodded. "Good."

"The formal meeting of Ambassadors is taking place at the Summer Palace soon," he began. "I want you to make sure no negotiations are made, and that none survive."

The SeaWing still didn't move, and the NightWing snapped his talons, releasing the chains. The SeaWing Prince stood up, looking at the cloaked figure.

"I will do whatever it takes."

Hello guys, sorry I'm stopping at a cliff hangar, however, what I mentioned above will happen, and I hope you guys can wait as the plot of the new story unfolds in my mind. I hope you guys have a great Summer and Fourth of July (for those who live in America) and any other holiday your culture celebrates. Have a good day.
