Hello Hello! We are almost to 100 views and its only the second day! I appreciate everyone so much for reading this! I said this chapter would be longer than the last and it is, and hopefully more entertaining! I will get the next one out ASAP! Enjoy :)
Moon was shocked. Of all dragons to go missing! She thought. " How? When?" Said Moon trying to place her thoughts. Turtle started telling Moon his story. "I was up early and usually Qibli is too. So I went over to his cave so we could go to the prey center together and maybe find Kinkajou. I uh walked around a bit trying to find his cave" Turtle said suspiciously. Moon knew very well he probably used his enchanted coral. "And when I found it there was just an Icewing! So I came and got Kinkajou thinking Qibli was already at the prey center but he wasn't. We checked around for him and Kinkajou said he wasn't with you, Moon. So we told Sunny and she looked around a bit and contacted Queen Torn just in case he was in the sand kingdom but he wasn't. Sunny got Fatespeaker to look around the school and you know the rest".
Moon stood there shocked. "Who was in his cave?" She said. Wait, that Icewing! Flurry? She thought, remembering how Qibli asked her to look into his mind. Tsunami replied "Flurry, our replacement for Winter. Just In case you were wondering, which you were. We already asked him if he noticed anything." Tilting her wing towards Turtle."We should go and look for him!" Kinkajou said. Tsunami didn't miss a beat and replied sarcastically " Oh wonderful another time where the Jade Winglet leaves the school to galivant around Pyrrhia! Gee I really love the stress when you guys leave!". Sunny and Clay both shot her a look and Starflight seemed amused. "We need someone else to help look for him. We need Wi-". Kinkajou was cut off by a loud voice and talon steps.
" IM BAAAAAAAACK!" Exclaimed Peril. She saw the looks on all of their faces. "So I guess no one is going go ask me about my trip to the Sky kingdom?". Geez these dragons. I had a great story too! Everyone looks like someone grabbed the prey they were just about to catch. Clay looks sad, is it Tsunami? I could totally set a tiny bit of her tail on fire if she did something...
"Maybe stop thinking about setting Tsunami on fire" Said Moon. Tsunami looked enraged "Three moons, is that actually what you are thinking about?!" She demanded. Peril shot a look at Moon. "Why are all of you grumpy looking anyway?" Said Peril offended. Clay walked up to Peril brushed her wing with his. "Qibli is missing, we can't find him" Clay explained. "What? The Sandwing?" Said Peril. He's alot more than just a Sandwing Peril. Thought Moon. "Too bad it wasn't Tsunami. KIDDING! HAHA I'm so funny right Turtle?" Said Peril grinning. Turtle rolled his eyes. "Looking for comfort here Peril" said Turtle glancing and Moon and Kinkajou. OH! Moon and Kinkajou do look sad. Uh not the best at comforting dragons Turtle! I'm better at boiling water . Peril thought. Peril walked over to Kinkajou and Moon. "Uh I'm really sorry that Qibli went missing? He's probably fine cause he's like super smart! Unless someone ambushed him. Or knocked him out, he would probably less fine. But yeah pat pat pat very comforting Peril!". Tsunami made a face at Sunny that practically said " what is it with this dragon?". This dragon and her firescales! Setting me on fire?! I'd like to see her try! Maybe I could find and Icewing with frostbreath that might work. "Frostbreath doesn't work on Peril's scales" said Moon responding to Tsunami's thoughts. Clay stepped between Tsunami and Peril "Okaay time to stop fighting guys!". Turtle glared at Peril and Tsunami and went to put his wing around Kinkajou. "So are we going to look for him?" Said Kinkajou was about to say something but Sunny stepped in. "NOPE! Not having the Jade Winglet leave the school again! Ill contact Mother and see if she can send out a search part to look for him." Said Sunny closing the matter. Moon, Kinkajou, Turtle and Peril all started heading for the prey center. While Turtle and Peril were getting fish from Webs, Kinkajou came up to Moon. "Don't worry, I'm sure Qibli is okay he's smart" Kinkajou pat Moon's tail with her own and walked over to Tamarin.
But Moon did worry. All day. Even when Webs was drowning on about the scorching. Even when Peril and Turtle tried to lift her sprits at lunch. Even when Ostrich reassured her that Qibli will be fine because no one would ever hurt one of Queen Thorns most trusted advisors. Everyone kept saying that Qibli will be okay because he's smart. Even smart people can be captured! Like Peril said what if Qibli was knocked out? What if he was just on a trip somewhere visiting Winter at the Sanctuary? Without telling everyone? No he would've told Moon! Or maybe not if he thought it would hurt her to think of him. Then he would've told Sunny. Later that night while Moon was trying to fall asleep (even though she knew she wouldn't) Kinkajou came over to Moon and started talking. "Wether Tsunami and Sunny likes it or not we ARE going to look for Qibli. But we need another dragon to help. You might not like it though." Moon shivered, what dragon was Kinkajou talking about? Within a second even before Kinkajou said his name Moon knew the only other dragon who would help them look. The only dragon who would chose to help them look. The only other dragon who would care to help look.
Winter.
Leaving Jade Mountain to go look for Qibli was easier said than done. The dragonets of destiny must've known that the remainder of the Jade Winglet wouldn't just stand by. So Tsunami, Sunny and Clay were always near by them. Especially Moon. Maybe they thought that because she was closer to Qibli she would be more likely to go after him. Peril had been joking with Moon about ways to leave Jade Mountain and get to the Sanctuary. "MAYBE! We could set everyone on fire! Maybe not Starflight on Sunny, but they aren't really the ones stopping us. We COULD set TSUNAMI on FIRE!" Peril said to Moon one morning. Moon found it amusing how much more confident Peril was in her power (Even though she still had guilt over releasing Darkstalker). Turtle finally came up with the plan they were going to use.
They would wait until Tsunami had done her final sweep of the caves. Peril, who's cave was near by their teachers would listen to make sure Tsunami had gone to sleep. Then, Peril will come get Turtle, Kinkajou and Moon. They assumed they had guards, or Nightwings like Fatespeaker and Starflight who were always more alive and awake at night. So they would have to be very quiet. Then they would fly out of Jade Mountain and to the Sanctuary as fast as they could. Just so the teachers wouldn't worry they would leave a note apologizing in Moon and Kinkajou's cave, which they would no doubt check after they had realized that their students were missing.
That night everything was going fine untill they were about to start flying out. They encountered a dragon with silver-white scales with shades of dark blue around his wings. It was Flurry. What is he doing? Why is he here? Thought Moon. MOON! Moon Glanced around and realized it was Peril trying to get her attention. Can I set him on fire? HE WILL TELL TSUNAMI! Moon suppressed a giggle then shook her head. "What are you guys doing?" Said Flurry. Kinkajou replied quickly "we wanted to go check around the school, for for Qibli. What are you doing?" Flurry looked extremely guilty. " I wanted to swim in the underground lake, its night and cold so it reminds me of home." Flurry said wistfully, with longing in his eyes. In his mind Moon often heard him thinking about his father. "Ill leave you to it then" said Flurry. There was something unsettling about ths dragon, his thoughts of fear were caught in a loop. His thoughts reminded her of Pyrite, the disguise for Winters brother Hailstorm. When he walked away Turtle thought it would be a good idea to listen for minds to see if anyone was asleep. She used all of her power but no one was awake. After they were sure no one was awake, Moon and her friends bolted out of Jade Mountain and into the cool night air. Moon flew as fast as she could to keep up with everyone. She was going to find Winter and get him to help them.
To the Sanctuary now. Qibli I'm coming.
