Peril POV:

I was just chilling in my room in JMA. After the craziness at the sky kingdom, I needed to calm down. I'm glad that Ruby excepted me, along with Turtle. Oh also that cute little Prince Cliff, he didn't care that I have firescales or not, he always considered me a friend, he barely even knew me. And that song that was almost perfect, I've never stopped thinking about it. "Perhaps people are starting to except me." I said to myself smiling. Then there was a knock at the entrance. I looked up and, "Speak of the devil, and he shall appear." (I don't own that line!) Cliff was right there, shiny red scales in all. "Hey Cliff, what are you doing here?" He walked over seeming really excited. "I'm becoming a part of Jade Mountain Academy, I'm going to fill in the missing skywing." He said with that cute voice. "No way." I said. "It's true, I already met the sandwing and rainwing in the winglet, the rainwing was very talkative, I almost got bored." I gave him a smile. I almost gave him a hug, but I stopped myself. "Oh you can touch me, I found a piece of that weird roll-up paper, and with it, I can touch you." Then he leaped onto me. "Wow Cliff, you're so smart." I said. He lied down on on my back to relax. "You're very warm you know." I laughed a little. "Oh Peril, I was out with mommy at that town which I forgot it's name, and I saw a weird pale skywing that used no fire that fought against some sandwings. It was weird, we all have fire right?" I started to get curious. "Well, most of us do, seawings have no fire, and icewings breath ice, but tell me more about the fire-less skywing?" He flipped over. "I didn't get to watch long, mommy took me and ran saying he's a bad guy. All I got to see was how strong he was, looked like mudwing strength. And I think training from all over, he was powerful without fire, and those pale copper scales blinded me, so I lost him." I was in both panic and relief. "Cliff, you saw my twin brother." He then looked at me. "Then wouldn't he be a she and look like you?" He asked. "Well, that's a different twin. I'm saying he was with me in the egg, and hatched with me, meaning twins." I told him. "Oh, I didn't know that." he said. "Well, as much as I'd like to stay and chat, but I have to find him. I'll see you later Cliff." I gave him a last hug. "Wait can I come?" I turned around. "I wish you could, but I'm afraid you're not ready for all this journeying." he looked down. "But hey, you still have all of Jade Mountain to explore." His face lit up. "Now go make your own adventure." I said as I walked out.

"Clay, where are you?" I called as I strolled through the hallways. "Peril, are you ok? Is someone hurt?" he said running up to me. "No no, everything's fine. We just need to talk, in private." "Follow me." He said taking my claw. He took me to a private cave so we could talk. "So, what is it?" he asked feeling worried. "Clay, you need to worry less, but that's beside the point. I wanted to talk because," I leaned closer to him. "I think my brother is still alive." I said in a whisper. "Get out, how did you know?" he asked feeling excited. "Well, Cliff told me, and you didn't tell me he was joining the academy." he was a little stunned. "Oh sorry, I was going to tell you, but Starflight manged to talk me into helping him organize scrolls." I nodded my head. "He could become the next Blister for all we know." I bantered. "Naw, he's blind, and too timid." I agreed. "I feel like there's more to this conversation." he said looking at me with thought. "Well, I was thinking I should go after him. You know, cause maybe he needs help." He frowned. "Well, you're not going alone if that's what you're implying." I looked at him. "Really? Clay, thank you for helping me." Then to his surprise, I hugged him. "You two have quite the bond don't you?" I heard a voice say, which startled me into dropping Clay. "Sorry, but Turtle, where you spying on us? How much did you hear?" He came out from the entrance and looked down in fault. "Only that you two were leaving to find your missing brother." I sighed. "Well, I guess as punishment, you're coming with us." He only nodded his head. "I was sort of hoping I'd get invited. Ever since Kinkajou found out I liked her, I've been trying to," He shuddered. "Get fit." Me and Clay looked at each other, and nodded. "Sure, if you need the workout, you can come." Clay said. "Also, I kind of like adventuring. It seems to be the one thing I enjoy without getting bored." I laughed a little, but he didn't hear. "But one problem: Where do we begin?" Turtle said. We thought for a bit. "Cliff said he saw him in the town. Perhaps Possibility?" Clay nodded. "It's the only town that has a diverse amount of dragons." "So, back to Possibility." Turtle said a little enthusiastically. We arrived at around noon on the front arch, and nothing much has changed since last time. "See any signs of a fight?" We looked around. "Maybe if we split up, we could cover more ground." Turtle chimed in. "That's a good idea." Clay said patting him on the back. "I guess I get some of my brains from Uncle Shark." So then we flew of to different areas.

Clay POV:

I looked around for anything that resembled some sort of fight. Then I bumped into a dragon by accident. "Hey watch where you're, Clay!" I looked to see it was Sora. "Sora, what are you doing here?" I asked. "I'm on the run remember." Then common sense hit me. "Oh right, sorry, I forgot about the incident." She looked down. "Yeah, I'm sorry Clay, but I know Icicle was the one that killed Crane." I then gave her a pat on the shoulder. "Well, good luck." "You too, wait, why are you here?" she asked. "Oh, I'm helping Peril find her missing brother. By any chance has you seen a skywing with pale copper scales and uses no fire?" She looked a little frightened. "Come this way." she said motioning me into a corner. Then she reached into her bag, and pulled out a knife. "That skywing, he used these, no fire, all strength." I took it and looked at it. It had a weird symbol on it. "what's this?" She looked at it. "Oh, that. I asked many people about it, but they all either ran away, or said I don't know. My suspicions tell me that this guy means business. If you're looking for him, be very careful. I heard he put three skywing soldiers in the hospital." I gave her the knife back. "No, you're going to need it more than me." she said closing my talons around it. "Good luck, and don't get yourself killed." I smiled and gave her a hug. "I really wish you could come back innocent, and you too." She flew off. So, at least we knew who how dangerous he is, but still doesn't help. I hope Peril and Turtle are doing better than I am.

Turtle POV:

"So, all I need to find is signs of a fight, or ask some people about it." I whispered to myself. I listened for any chat on the subject. Oh who am I kidding, I'm not gonna hear anyone talking about it in this crowd. Then as if by a miracle, I heared someone talking about it. "I heard that a rainwing was involved, and she was fierce for a rainwing, and she had these weird things about her. She had straightened horns and claws. And those fighting skills. A freak I'd have to say." I heard someone say. "Yeah, and that skywing, his pale colored scales. Plus, he used no fire." the other said. "You think it's that one skywing that had no fire that hatched only eight years before the sandwing war ended?" a third said. "No, I heard that Scarlet had the mother kill him. It's not possible to bring someone back from the dead." the first said. "I don't know. I heard they flew north of here, but it's not like anyone's looking for them, they're impossible to find." Then the dragons went their separate ways. "I beg to differ mudwing." I said.

I continued on trying to get any more info. "Hey, you're that seawing that was at the sky palace right?" I heard a female voice say. "Yes I am." I said turning to her. "Are you some kind of adventurer or something?" she asked. "Not really, I'm just starting though. By the way, what's your name?" I said. "I'm Skystrike, nice to meet you, uh." She said. "Turtle. Oh by any chance have you seen any fighting scenes recently, I'm looking for a few dragons." She shook my claw. "Nice to meet you too Turtle, and I did see a few dragons fighting some soldiers. I heard the fire-less skywing put three skywing soldiers in the hospital." I gave a chuckle. "Quite spirited aren't ya?" She looked down. "Sorry if I insulted you your highness." I was surprised she realized who I was. "How'd you know I was royal? Plus don't sweat it, you're good." I said reassuringly. She brightened again. "Oh good, thanks. I do get out of hand sometimes. Plus I have great eyesight. Oh, and hows Carnelian doing, I'm her sister by the way." I looked down. "Well, I thought you looked familiar. Plus, I'm sorry, she's dead." She looked saddened very deeply. "Ok, thanks for letting me know, Ruby wouldn't tell me what happened." She gave me a small hug and then said very quickly, "I guess I'll see ya rou...Wait, can I help? I'm very helpful, please. I never get to help other dragons. Especially royals." "Um, repeat that, slower this time please?" I said trying to calm her down. "I, would, like, to, help." She she popping the P. "I guess you can help." I said, and she suddenly clung to me. "Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!" I pushed her off. "You and Nelian are complete polar opposites." I stated. "You gave my sister a nickname? Did you like her or something?" she asked in a rush. "No, I didn't like her. I use it because it's not a mouthful. Unlike Skystrike. There's only two syllables." She looked more energetic now. "Wow, that's very smart of you. Are you sure you didn't like her? If you got to know her, you really would've liked her." I rolled my eyes. "For the last time, no I didn't like her, I had my eyes on someone else." Then I realized I slipped. "Oh, well. I hope you and her live a good life together." she said calming down. "If we survive this." I muttered. "What? Were you talking about me?" I groaned. "No, I said If we survive this." I said a little sternly, but she wasn't phased. I figured out why no one wants her to help. Three moons she won't shut up. I hope the others are doing better than I am. At least I have some lead, but not much of one.
