Wings of Fire: Bright Hope

by QibliStone

Brightfly was born a normal dragon hybrid. He had almost every feature from his parents Kinkajou and Turtle. But a strange discovery sends Brightfly down a tunnel of lies, treachery, hatred and yet adventure. (only prologue and chapters 1-4 so far)

2. Chapter 1

4 years later…

Brightfly looked down at the scroll in his talons. The Jade Mountain Academy library was his favourite place to be, nowadays. Just the peace and tranquillity made joy flow through every single one of his scales, no matter what tribe those scales were from. Peace… for a hybrid. Stuff like that didn't come up often.

Brightfly read some more of the scroll. This particular scroll was a scroll on hybrids, but one of the few with a positive light on them. It described how rare it was for a hybrid to have all of their parents' powers put together. But there's me. I have the rainbow scales on my underbelly, but SeaWing scales on the top of me. I have webbed talons and gills, but I have the RainWing tail. I can spit venom, and breath underwater. What more could I want? Brightfly smiled, stretching out his talons. But a brief contact made the scroll fall of the table with a horrible clatter. Starflight looked over.

"Are you all right?" He asked.

"Yep, I'm fine" Brightfly replied, embarrassed.

"Get up here, back on the table, right now" Brightfly hissed quietly at the scroll, but just joking. But to his horror, the scroll floated up, and up, and up onto the table.

OH GOSH, WHAT? Am I an… animus?
