Chapter 1: Starmind
Greatwatcher was busy shelving the library when a little black dragonet walked in.
Mentally, she reached out to her sister.
Moon, get the scroll. Is this the one?
Yeah. Can you go help her?
Greatwatcher rolled her eyes.
Lazy Moonreader, never doing her work.
I heard that!
Greatwatcher strolled over to Starmind.
How may I help you?
Greatwatcher then smacked her head, forgetting that not all NightWings had mind reading.
No, it's okay. Is Sahara in here?
Sahara.
The SandWing?
The only one I know of. Starmind answered.
Greatwatcher pondered this. The last time she saw Sahara was.... what, last week?
Okay, thanks anyway. I'm looking for a book on scavengers. Starmind inquired.
Moon, scavengers.
Row 8, shelf 4 honey.
Row 8, shelf 4 relayed Greatwatcher.
Starmind nodded and left.
Greatwatcher gazed at her futures. Many involved an IceWing, and many involved a-what was that? It was a dragon for sure, but it's wings were-fluffy?
This is an interesting one.
Hmm. Indeed. Both futures are... odd, to say the least.
I must agree with you there. However- there's one where she picks a normal looking dragon.
And that future starts now.
Greatwatcher whirled around to see a light green dragonet walk in. The other SeaWings turned to look at him.
The green dragonet was focused directly on Greatwatcher, but his light-up scales said otherwise.
Patterns subconsciously flashed along his side and tail.
I've come to research a scavenger I've come to research a scavenger I've come to research a scavenger I've come to research a scavenger
Greatwatcher blanched. Then she realized that even though he was popular, he still rehearsed sentences in his head. Greatwatcher did the same.
"I-um, where are the books on-um, NightWings?"
Greatwatcher heard Moonreader groan and mentally bang her head on the table.
"NightWings-" Greatwatcher took her chance to set the plan in action.
"NightWings arrrre- Row 8, shelf 4."
The SeaWing bowed his head.
"Thank you." He walked off towards Starmind.
Greatwatcher watched as her plan was set in motion.
The SeaWing was rifling through scrolls, looking for NightWing titles.
"Why are there only scavenger things here? Well, at least I get to take what I wanted." He whispered to himself. Prying a scroll out, he tucked it under his wing.
Greatwatcher clapped her talons together and prayed as hard as she could.
Please do it please do it pleeeeease.
"Oh hey, you like scavengers too?"
YEEEEES
"Oh, um, yeah." The nervous SeaWing mumbled.
"I'm Starmind, gold winglet."
"Um, I'm Seafoam. I'm in the Quartz winglet."
"Oh, cool! I think we have a group study this week-or no, next week. Ooh, maybe I could start a group library session where we talk about scavengers! Anyway, I'll see you later!"
Greatwatcher let out a sigh of relief.
Starmind plodded over to Greatwatcher.
Well that's a triumphant look.
Something just went according to plan.
Starmind cocked her head.
May I see Firefly?
She's busy right now. But, any questions you have, I can answer.
Hmm. Will you ask her about the scavenger book club?
Sure thing. You want to check that out?
You read my mind.
Grinning, Starmind passed her stamp to Greatwatcher.
Greatwatcher stamped the paper and handed both items back.
Have a nice day!
Starmind strolled out of the library.
Moonreader walked over.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Of course I am.
[[AN: So Moonreader and Greatwatcher are twin NightWings, both with mind reading and future telling. They like to use their skills for match making, because what else?]]
