Read and Sea (GET IT? *you roar with laughter*)
Chapter 1:[]
(sorry that there is so much ship stuff in this chapter, there wont be as much in the rest)
a bright-colored Rainwing flew towards Jade Mountain, her orange wings glowing in the sun and her wings flapping rapidly, as the yellow sun marched up the sky. the Rainwing occasionally looked behind her, with a satisfied smirk.
Tsunami watcher her, feeling nervous and happy at the same time, Clay, Starflight, Sunny, Fatespeaker, and Peril were beside her as Glory landed with a small thump in front of them, the orange scales on her wings turning pink.
"Tsunami! I never thought I would be happy to see you" Glory chirped and hugged the deep blue Sea Dragon.
"Me neither," Tsunami said and hugged Glory back.
the Dragonets of Destiny had a group hug, as Peril looked at them with envy and anger and Fatespeaker smiled at them.
"So where is your shadow?" Tsunami asked, 'Your Shadow' was her nickname for Glory's over enthuastiastic bodygaurd, Deathbringer. because he never left Glory alone and he was always angry and aggressive towards everyone but Glory.
"Oh I snuck out last night while he was asleep, I left him a note saying that I would be back so that he didn't burn the whole rainforest down. sure I don't have good night vision so I smacked into a few trees on the way here but I'm fine. let's see how long it takes until he finds me" Glory smiled at them.
Tsunami hated Deathbringer. she didn't think that Deathbringer was good enough for Glory and Glory never said anything good about him ever. and Deathbringer hated Tsunami right back.
a Seawing hatchling rushed out of the Jade Mountain main entrance and smiled at Glory.
"Why is there a hatchling here?" Glory asked and studied the little dragonet, who opened her wings and let her royal markings glow. "Hmmm did Coral have another daughter? but who would she have it wi-" Glory stopped talking and looked at Tsunami, wide-eyed.
"Tsunami, please say that this isn't your dra-" Glory started
"It's my kid" Tsunami cut her off and looked at her talons.
"Tsunami, why would you have a dragonet? You're only 10 years old" Glory said in a worried voice.
"It was an accident, a happy one. thankfully I wanted to have dragonets. her name is Hurricane and her father is Riptide." Tsunami said
Glory POV:
Glory was extremely surprised, back in the cave she had thought that Tsunami would never get a partner due to how aggressive and bossy she could be, but Tsunami had been the second to find a partner and the first to have a dragonet. Glory didn't even have a mate yet and Tsunami had a kid already. sure they were adults but she was so young.
"I'm sorry, alright. it was an accident. please don't hate me... more than you already do" Tsunami said as the dragonet crawled up and onto her head with a squeak.
Glory had to admit that her daughter was adorable.
"Hello, Glory" Peril said, the word Glory coming out of her mouth like it was a swear, and the greeting seemed forced. like she was trying to get Clay to notice how nice she was to his friends
Glory realized early into the visit how Peril would scowl or walk menacingly towards anyone who expressed affection to Clay, or whoever Clay expressed affection to. she was even jealous of Hurricane, just not that much and whenever Clay would comment on Hurricane Peril would give him this look that said 'If you like this dragonet so much, why don't we create one?'
Glory was surprised at how well Tsunami and Riptide got along, she had expected Tsunami to yell at him or be extremely rude. but Riptide knew how to calm her down but also knew how to match Tsunami's energy. and Glory felt a rush of anger whenever Riptide flirted with Tsunami and she didnt know why.
"Glory! why would you abandon me? I'm your bodyguard. Its kind of my job to keep you safe" Deathbringer said as he landed in front of her
"Well I don't know, maybe its, because you act like my friends, are going to kill me all the time even though I grew up with them and they have no motive to do so, your just annoying to be around and you would probably end up murdering Tsunami" Glory snarled and continued walking.
"Hey, im not annoying, im annoyingly handsome. but the other things are correct, my Queen" Deathbringer said with a quick bow and followed her, Glory hissed and stomped out all the pink from her scales
"Where are all the students anyway" Deathbringer asked
"Its break, so we get the whole school to ourselves for two weeks" Clay responded
Suddenly a loud roar split the air and everything seemed to explode with movement and sound.
(I know I suck at writing, lol)
Chapter 2:[]
Glory felt herself being flung backwards and she hit the ground with a thud, she launched open her eyes to see that Tsunami had shoved everyone but Clay and Peril inside of an open cave,
outside of the cave were tons and tons of Seawings and Sandwings and Clay, Peril, and Tsunami fighting them
Tsunami slashed the gills of a Seawing and tore off the tail barb of a Sandwing, which did almost nothing against the sea of dragons who were breaking things and trying to kill them. Clay was guarding the cave entrance, where they had put everyone and fighting any dragon who came near it.
all Peril had to do was walk forward and she would kill tons of dragons who couldn't get out of the way in time.
Tsunami bashed a Seawing's head against the wall with her tail and let out a roar of agony as a Sandwing tail came around and stabbed her in the leg. she leaped at the offending Sandwing who was much bigger than her, legs first, and barreled him against the ground, she raked her claws on his throat before leaping into another fight.
she oddly enjoyed this, she could take out all her frustrations while helping.
Deathbringer eventually came, not from the cave that he had been shoved into but from a different hallway.
Odd Tsunami thought
A Couple Minutes Earlier:
Deathbringer looked out of the cave to see tons of dragons attacking and his heart dropped, he looked around and saw Glory laying on the floor, groaning in pain with her eyes closed.
he knew that she would try and fight them when she woke up, and she would most likely die in the ensuing conflict. Glory was half the size or less of every dragon that was attacking.
Glory opened her eyes and sat up, Deathbringer ran towards her and held her mouth shut, and picked her up.
Glory squirmed hard, against him even though he was three times bigger than her, because of the age gap and tribe difference he still almost dropped her a few times.
"I'm sorry, I'm doing this for your own good. you would die if I didn't do this. I'm sorry" Deathbringer said and closed the door to the cave that he just placed her in as Glory rushed to it and started pounding against the stone door while screaming muffledly.
Deathbringer gulped and went back to the battle, already regretting what he had done.
Tsunami POV:
"Where is Glory?" Tsunami asked Deathbringer as he appeared.
"I don't know" Deathbringer lied as he slit a random dragon's throat
Glory let out a deep sigh and continued banging on the door, why was Deathbringer so overprotective?
if he hadn't done this then Glory could be out there protecting Jade Mountain with her friends and Deathbringer. but no. she would just have to sit in a random cave for the entire battle.
What if they all died?
then she would die in this cave of starvation and dehydration, wasting away and dying a miserable death.
she couldn't even use her acid because the door wasn't organic, it was just a huge slab of rock with a lock.
Glory shoved one of her claws into the lock and jiggled it around, to no avail. all that happened was half of her claw almost broke off.
Glory sighed and laid down on the floor,
Deathbringer approached the cave that he had put Glory in, they had won and the roque group of Sandwings and Seawings had fled.
he put the key into the lock and opened the door
"Look, Glory im-" Deathbringer was cut off by Glory running faster than he had ever seen anyone run, out of the cave
"Did Glory Die?" Glory heard Tsunami ask Clay as they cleaned up the blood and broken glass from the floor.
"No, I didn't! this lunatic just locked me in a room!" Glory yelled, loving the feeling of being free.
Riptide had his wing draped over Tsunami and Hurricane was playing with a Sandwing scale, everyone's heads jolted up when they heard Glory
Tsunami walked away from Riptide, and towards Deathbringer. standing as tall as she could, Deathbringer let out a low growl
"Why would you imprison Glory? if we died she would suffer a miserable fate. of agony" Tsunami snarled at the night dragon who just looked at her stubbornly
"I did it for her safety, and I don't have to explain my reasoning to you. You're just a teacher" Deathbringer snarled even louder and took a step towards Tsunami.
Glory launched herself between them and glared at Deathbringer, who upon seeing her, his eyes lit up.
"Deathbringer. you don't do that to me, ever again. I understand that you didn't want me to die, but I'm, not a dragonet. you don't have the right to yell at my sister for what you did." Glory snarled and Deathbringer looked down at his talons
out of nowhere a blood-red Nightwing appeared, with two satchels draped over her wings, and handed Glory a letter. the Nightwing dipped their head respectfully and flew away.
Glory opened the letter and read it
_____________
Dear Queen Glory of the Rainwings
I sent this letter to ask you if you need any payment, for the land that you kindly gave our newly independent tribe. I can pay you back in Treasure, Food or Resources.
Thank you in advance
From: Queen Dreamcatcher of the Nightwings
____________
"What's it about?" Deathbringer asked her
"Well Dreamcatcher wants to know if she has to repay m-" Glory started
"I'm going back to the Kingdom of the Sea" Tsunami's voice cut in
Chapter 3:[]
"What?!" Sunny yelled in surprise and panic and Tsunami looked down at her talons
"I'm not cut out to be a teacher," Tsunami said gruffly
everyone was visibly sad except for Peril who seemed to be uncontrollably smiling but trying to hide it.
"Of course you are! Tsunami please don't abandon us" Sunny pleaded "Sunny, this is what she wants to do. this is her path in life" Clay said softly and put a wing around the little hybrid who started crying.
Glory just looked at them, she had known basically from the beginning that Tsunami was too hot-headed and arrogant to be a teacher, but she hadn't expected this.
"Sunny, it's alright. Tsunami is a little too arrogant slash rude to be a teacher, this is her path in life. to become a shark" Glory said and wrapped her tail around Sunny's
Tsunami didn't even look up, and didn't show any emotion at Glory's comment, which made her feel horrible about it.
Sunny pulled away from Glory and glared at her, with more anger than Glory had ever seen Sunny have.
"She is leaving! don't you get that? we might never see her again." Sunny snarled at Glory, which made the Rainwing jump backward and into Deathbringer who in turn took a menacing step towards Sunny, who just flared her wings and stepped towards him.
"Deathbringer, I'm in the wrong. stop trying to intimidate my friends" Glory growled and Deathbringer stopped and went back to observing
"No, you will see us again. I promise to visit every once in a while. us being Riptide and Hurricane" Tsunami said
"Well, what will you do there?" Starflight said as Fatespeaker leaned into him.
"I'm going to stay in the palace with my mother after I convince her that Riptide is trustworthy with the fact that I trusted Riptide enough to have a child with him, and I have good judgment. because I'm her daughter. Coral will be more convinced with flattery" Tsunami explained in a confident voice as Riptide put a wing around her.
"Hey, you do have good judgment, not just because your her daughter," Riptide said and Glory snorted. but they just ignored her, everyone did. besides Sunny who gave her an angry glance.
Tsunami started blushing and kicked Riptide in the shin. It was more like a tap than a kick which surprised Glory that her angry older sister could be gentle with anything.
"So when will you be leaving?" Clay asked
"Tomorrow Morning" Tsunami answered,
Peril looked on, feeling sad, lonely, and jealous as the Dragonets of Destiny hugged, Clay's warm brown scales against Tsunami, that weird Sandwing and that beautiful Rainwing made Peril want to kill them.
and the way that Clay hugged them with no hesitation, without even asking or looking towards Peril made her feel angry and as significant as a speck of sand at the bottom of the ocean. Peril wanted to wrap Clay in her wings and hopefully in the process kill all his friends, and they could be happy together. but she couldn't. Clay would probably kill her. even Hurricane was there.
"Goodbye, Dear friend" Starflight said
"Guys, I'm not going to die. sure you might only see me a few times every year. even less than Glory. but it's fine" Tsunami said with a grin.
"Tsunami, I'm sorry You have changed a lot since I last saw you, and I'm sorry for treating you like you were the same as before," Glory said, with a tone of anger and sadness in a weird mix.
"I haven't changed, you're just slightly less annoying to be around. you still treat me the same though" Tsunami growled back, a small puff of steam came out of her nostrils and Riptide put his wing back around her and pulled her close, which seemed to stop all anger from her face.
Glory felt herself turning dark red, she had tried to apologize but Tsunami had to ruin it.
"That was rude, she was just trying to apologize" Deathbringer hissed and glared at Tsunami who glared right back.
Glory didn't try to stop him, she felt so embarrassed by Tsunami shutting down her apology in a split second with no consideration.
"You know, I don't think that you could be Queen. you would need to be Bossy, Arrogant, and full of yourself. oh wait" Glory basically yelled, but Tsunami just gave her a disgusted look and ignored her.
"Alright, I should probably be going now. Goodbye, everyone. I have had amazing memories with all of you, I love you all like siblings. even though we're all from different tribes. we were still raised together" Tsunami said as she grabbed Hurricane who let out an unhappy squeak and Tsunami put Hurricane in a satchel around her neck.
and with that Tsunami and Riptide turned around and flew away, in the direction of the huge ocean.
"Should we go to?" Deathbringer asked Glory who let out an angry growl, and stomped out all the pink from her scales and Deathbringer smirked at her.
