The sound of birds singing was what woke me early that morning. I yawned and rubbed my eyes with my talons. I then slowly sat up and stretched out my wings and claws.
I yawned once more and I slowly walked over to my vanity and put on my usual accessories for the day. I then washed my face with some cold water and smoothed my tail spikes down. I then put my bandages on and did one more once over and I made my way down the hallway and closed my bedroom door behind me as I went.
As I entered the huge dining hall, I saw the Queen sitting at the table reading a scroll that was spread out in front of her on the table.
I laughed and took a seat next to her and I read over her shoulder. She looked up when I sat down. I smiled and fidgeted with my sapphire necklace.
"You sure are up early this morning, aren't you, Mistral?" The Queen asked, with a small laugh. I nodded with a toothless grin on my face. I then looked up when the doors opened and in walked Aurora, Borealis, Tempest, Ermine, Flurry, Husky, Glaze and Permafrost. I smiled brightly at them as they took their seats
"Well Mistral, today's your first day of school, are you ready?" Queen Snowdrift asked, and I gave a hesitant nod in response. I then glanced nervously at Flurry and the others. After a few moments of silence, the Queen spoke up once more.
"Ermine and Husky will be coming to the school as well," she explained to me with a gentle smile in our direction. I smiled nervously in response.
I stared down at the math scroll that I was just given. I turned to Ermine who to my shock was already finished. She was now quietly reading one of her scrolls.
I then turned to Husky, I nudged her wing with my own, causing Husky to look up at me with a raised eyebrow. "What is it, Mistral?" She asked, giveing me a puzzled look. I sighed and gestured with my talons and pointed to my math scroll. She got the message and smiled at me.
"You need help?" I nodded and she began to explain to me how the symbols and numbers came together. I tried to understand but it went right over my head. I sighed and rested my chin on my talons.
Permafrost gave me a worried look, I just gave her a reassuring smile and shrugged my wings. I just wanted classes to end already. "You ok, Mistral?" She asked, I looked up from the scroll that I had been reading, I blinked and nodded slowly after a moment of silence. She smiled and gave me a slight look of disbelief.
I then sighed once she had left the room, I banged my head on my desk in frustration. I then wrote down some ideas that were floating in the deepest depths of my mind.
I ended up writing a whole story in the process. I then looked down at my ink-stained talons in surprise and amusement. I laughed quietly to myself and I rolled up the scroll and tied it with a black leather band.
The story was titled. 'THE LIFE OF AN ICEWING PRINCESS.' I chuckled softly, and put it on my racks that were full with hundreds of my scrolls that I had written and read over the years. 'Ermine would go crazy at all of my scrolls.' I thought with an amused smile and a roll of my eyes.
I then cleaned my talons and polished my tail spikes... please, for the love of StarClan, don't ask! I'm a weirdo and my friends and the Queen all know it.
When I entered the dinning hall for dinner, the Queen and my friends all had amused smiles on their faces. I looked down at my talons to see that there was still ink on them. I smiled sheepishly and laughed quietly.
I looked up at Queen Snowdrift with a toothless grin on my face. She just shook her head in fond amusement. I sighed and shook out my wings and tail spikes. "How was your first day of school, Mistral?" The Queen asked, after a short while of silence. I looked up from my fruit to look up at her. Yes... I eat frozen fruits. I'm part SkyWing what do you expect.
"It was good I guess, our teacher, an IceWing with rigid spikes and untamed scales named Sled, was trying to teach us algebra." I explained, with a huff. I then continued speaking after a short pause.
"I don't understand it whatsoever, I think that letters and numbers should stay in separate categories, they are different after all." I explained, rolling my eyes and twitching my tail in slight annoyance.
"Hmm... I see..." Queen Snowdrift observed, with a twich of her tail and a raised eyebrow. I sighed and fiddled with my necklace. I then looked up at Ermine with a mischievous grin on my face. Tempest, seeing the look on my face started laughing. While both Flurry and Permafrost had amused smiles on their faces.
"What are you planing in that little head of yours. Mistral?" Flurry asked me with a laugh and an amused smile. I just grinned and winked. Flurry and Tempest got the message and nodded.
"You'll see, Flurry." I say while grinning cheekily at her as I turned and whispered something into Tempest's ear. The SeaWing smiled and nodded, she then went and got the requested itams for my little prank.
I was awoken early that morning to the sun shining into my face. I gave a quiet sigh and tried to go back to sleep, but to no avail, so with an annoyed sigh, I reluctantly got up and began to get ready for the day.
"Well... you know what they say, the early bird gets the worm." I muttered tiredly to myself with a yawn.
Usually, I was always up before the sun had even risen in the sky. But I had stayed up late talking to Prince Frost. I yawned again and rubbed my talons over my eyes.
Once I had splashed some cool water onto my face, and once I had made sure that I was presentable. I made my way downstairs to the dining area. I slowly pulled open the large pale blue doors, I slowly made my way to take a seat next to my mother and Winter, Hail sat on Winter's other side. I smiled and grinned up at Winter, who smiled back at me.
I could only put my tail over my snout in discomfort in an attempt not to throw up. The smells of the chemicals brought bad memories for me. I had almost been poisoned by the same SkyWings and NightWings that had tried to kill me.
I sat at my desk staring down at my science scroll with narrowed icy blue eyes.I don't understand the scientific terms that our teacher was explaining to us.
I turned to Ermine, who just looked deeply interested, I could only stare at her slack jawed. Who was she enjoying the smell of chemicals and strong cleaning supplies.
I then turned to the teacher. He was an IceWing named Husky. He was drawling on and on about scientific method and other boring stuff like that.I felt my eyelids grow heavy but I pinched myself to keep myself from falling asleep.
"Do you understand, students?" Our teacher asked, in a bored tone. We all just nodded as if we were zombies.
"I'm very into science. I love it." The teacher drawled on again, and I just toned him out. I just sighed and stared out of the window, I was just wanting this dreadful class to end already.
I was finally realized when the class ended. That class was very wacky. I then took a deep breath of fresh air.
I then nudged Ermine's wing with my own causing Ermine to look up at me with a raised eyebrow. I just sighed and explained to her about our wacky science teacher.
"He was't that wacky, Mistral. You need to be more respectful, he's just doing his job teaching science." Ermine explained, looking at me with a slight pout.
I sighed and curled my tail around my back talons. I then blew a plume of frost in frustration. I eventually nodded. I then followed Ermine as we spread our wing and took off into the clear blue sky that was slowly darkening with clouds, witch meant a storm was coming.
The light was fading by the time we could see anything other than falling snowflakes. The lowering sun in the west tinted the sky a dusky orange, and the walls of the huge palace ahead of us were casting long shadows.
We landed outside in the courtyard and Tempest, came running out to greet us followed by my mother and Flurry. I smiled widly at my mother and Tempest
"How was school?" My mother asked, as we all walked inside. I lowered my head and whispered something into my mothers ear. She frowned and motioned for Hail to come over.
"Oh my Kami! Three Moons! Did you let the teacher know that you were uncomfortable?" Hail asked, with a worried and concerned look. I shook my head and twitched my tail.
I fidgeted with my necklace and my eyes darted around the room. I looked down at my talons as my tail began to twitch from side to side.
'Three Moons! That class made me so nervous and uncomfortable.' I thought. Just the thought of that class caused my IceWing spikes to rattle.
I was awoken early that morning to the sun shining into my face. I gave a quiet sigh and tried to go back to sleep, but to no avail, so with an annoyed sigh, I reluctantly got up and began to get ready for the day.
"Well... You know what they say, the early bird gets the worm." I muttered tiredly to myself, with a yawn.
Usually, I was always up before the sun had even risen in the sky. But I had stayed up late talking to Prince Frost. I yawned again and rubbed my talons over my eyes.
I push my wings off the ground as hard as I can to get them moving, and soar through the open sky. The sun had set, emitting a dim golden glow across the flooded plains. The crescent moon glinted on the other side of the horizon. I smiled widely as I did flips in the air, I just loved the feeling of the wind in my in my face and cooling my scales.
I ran outside into the crisp and chilly morning air. Today was going to be AMAZING! I'm going to make snow dragons with Permafrost, Flurry, Tempest, Ermine, Husky and Glaze.
I grinned and jumped into a snow pile with an excited squeal. I then poked my head out and grinned up at Permafrost. I then looked up to see three approaching dragonets.
I jumped out of the snow pile and curled my tail over my back talons. I then waited until my friends landed onto the snow covered ground. Once they landed, I bounded up to them with a huge grin plastered on my face.
They smiled and waved at me with bright smiles on their faces. I grinned evilly and threw a snowball at the unsuspecting Ermine. The IceWing yelped in surprise and jumped backwards. I bursted out into uncontrolled giggles as the others looked amused.
The snowball fight went down in the courtyard for it's infamy and it only ended when one of the IceWing guards informed us that lunch was ready. I looked up at the suns position in the sky to see that it was already midday. I smiled wildly, time sure does fly when your having fun. I then shook off the snow from my wings and followed my friends into the dining hall to have lunch.
I grinned up at Queen Snowdrift with a smirk. She just laughed and patted my head. I blushed at the attention and turned to Tempest, who sat next to me. Ermine took a seat next to Tempest while Flurry sat next to Permafrost.
In no time at all lunch was brought out to the table, the one who brought us our meals was an IceWing with pale blue scales and pure white wings named Hail. I smiled warmly at the IceWing who smiled back.
"Thank you, Hail." The Queen remarked, smiling at the IceWing guard who gave a curt bow and left the room. I laughed quietly and smiled at Tempest and Ermine.
"So, what did you all do today?" The Queen asked, looking at all of us with a raised eyebrow. I smiled coolly and twitched my tail in excitement. I then explained in detail to my mother all of the exciting things that we had done.
"Oh, my StarClan! You all had quite the productive day, haven't you?" Queen Snowdrift remarked, with a laugh and an amused smile. I simply nodded with a cheeky grin on my face.
Once lunch had ended, we headed back outside for some more snowball fights and to just have fun. I didn't have any of my studies today, so I was having the time of my life.
I flopped on to my bed with a tired sigh. I had the BEST. DAY. EVER! I smiled up at the feeling. I yawned and curled up to sleep.
I was wondering what exciting things would happen tomorrow? Well... It would be my first day of school... that's going to be intersecting I hope.
Before I fell asleep, I smoothed my scales and washed my face in the wash bassoon. I then yawned and rubbed my talons over my eyes. Then I curled up and sleep claimed me in it's warm embrace.
I was awoken early that morning to the sun shining into my face. I gave a quiet sigh and tried to go back to sleep, but to no avail, so with an annoyed sigh, I reluctantly got up and began to get ready for the day.
