Chapter 4
Finding all Three
Violets POV:
The group had been flying for a while and had needed a rest but the only land she knew that was close to the Candlewings were the Moonwings which was where her parents and siblings were. "We are going to stop at the Moonwings territory for a rest, is that ok with you guys?". Sól looked at her. "It's fine I guess". He answered. "I d-don't mind". Mist answered from behind her. "That sounds fun". Drizzle said from below them. They started heading towards the Moonwings and soon saw some mountain peaks. They had landed at the entrance of the Moonwings and a small dragonet ran up to them. "Urple snoof!, Epur!". The dragonet exclaimed. Soon a dragon appeared and picked up the dragonet. The dragon was Starwatcher which she knew as her leader. "Violet?, you're back already? Didn't you have a.......Oh". He stopped as he looked behind her. He stared at the group for a while before motioning them inside. "Why have you come back? Do you need food?". He said as he put the dragonet back into a room while staying in for a moment. As he came out another dragon ran out of the room. "We came here to rest for a bit, plus our wings are tired". Violet said while putting her wings to her side. Drizzle walked up besides her and stared looking around. "What is this from?". He said while pointing to a black scorch mark that left a dent on the wall. "That... Is from....... a dragonet that was practicing fire and they accidentally hit the stone". He said. She knew he didn't want Drizzle to know about the attack on her mother and Bronze. Speaking of her mother. "Where is my family?, are they here?". She said while going down the hallway. She looked in each of the rooms she remembered them in. "I forgot to tell you that your family has moved to another cave". He half growled as he went back to the entrance. She went back to the group and saw Drizzle with the same dragonet again. The dragonet was Dark Grey with a Light Gray underbelly and Dark Purplish Blackish horns with Dark Purplish Bluish eyes. He had a teardrop by his eye and knew he could read minds because everyone in her family could except her mom and dad, who could only see the future. "It was nice seeing you Starwatcher but we have to go". She said while the dragonet ran over to her. "Nuuu, Epur!, Epur!". The dragonet said as she tugged on her arm. "I'm sorry little one but I have to go". She said to the dragonet. Starwatcher came over and picked up the dragonet from her arm. "Well you Four have a safe trip". "We will". She said as Drizzle got into the hammock. "See Epur!, Epow!". The dragonet said as she took off. They started towards the beach and went Northwest to the Candlewings. They had only been flying for a few minutes and she wanted to stop and rest. Suddenly a surge of energy had flowed through her and it felt like she could fly forever. She could see the that both Sól and Mist had been affected by the surge too. They had flown a bit faster and saw Mist behind them. She had picked some food from the bag that she had and handed to Sól and Drizzle. Mist came beside her and she gave her some food. They had all eaten and felt full and had continued on their journey.
They had started to slow down their pace and they had soon reached the island. This time instead of landing on a beach they had landed on a nice patch of grass. It was hotter and dry here. Some of the grass was a nice shade of brown while some of it was a nice green color. Drizzle got out of the hammock and looked around. Sól looked around but kept his talons over the egg. Mist was nervous. She could tell from her mind. Which was asking question after question. There were trees but not as much as the Galaxywings island. "Are we supposed to go in there like we did last time?". Sól asked as he pointed to the trees. She sighed. "Yes we will, only to find the Candlewing". She told him. They started walking into the trees. The grass was dry but it was better than the Solarwing kingdom. They kept walking and didn't know anyone was there until they had finally reached some clear patches. They looked around and saw buildings that were arranged almost the same way as the Galaxywings. The huts were made of wood and they saw silk curtains along with dragons walking along the paths that were paved between houses and other buildings. Violet saw that Mist had looked at the houses nervously. I hope none of them recognize me. If they didn't that would be really good. Why was Mist nervous about being recognized?. And why was it good that they didn't?. Did she do something that they didn't know about?. They had kept walking and she didn't know which house to go to so she stopped and pulled out the crystal. The crystal was supposed to help her see things. She looked at the crystal for a moment. "Look into the stars". She whispered. The crystal started glowing and a small purple mist appeared around it. The crystal showed a house but the house was different. It was a sandstone house with red curtains. A grass clearing showed up and the ocean did too, but it was black?. The crystal faded back to its normal purple color. "Whoa, Violet that was cool, how did the crystal do that?". Drizzle asked while tapping the crystal. "It's used for Moonwings who have visions that are to blank and they use the crystal to make their visions clearer". She told Drizzle as he backed away. "That sounds cool!". He said while walking beside her. They had kept looking and still couldn't find the sandstone house. All of the houses were made of wood. Why would one of the houses be made of sandstone?. By the time they had looked at all of the houses it was Sunset which was pretty but it had distracted them. Soon they had come across a place where there were no houses and everything just stopped. "This is strange? Why would houses just stop being made here?". Sól asked from her left. "I don't know". She answered. She looked behind her and saw that everyone was tired of searching.
She had found a tree with some soft grass and gestured the others over to sleep. Violet curled into a ball and watched as Sól put the egg down to sleep and covered it with his wing. Drizzle slept between them. Mist slept by Sól but stayed a few talons away from him. As she curled up to sleep she went into Sól's mind. Would she be mad if I crept away? Maybe. Why did I have to come on this Wonderful journey of a prophecy. My Suns!, this is boring. She crept out of his mind and went into Drizzles. This trip IS fun but I miss the water. I do like being in the air though. I wonder how Violet is? Does she miss her home? Her family? Does she have a family?. She snuck out of his mind and closed her eyes to fall asleep. She awoke under the tree but she wasn't with Drizzle, Sól and Mist. She got up and took a step forward. When she did she wished she hadn't. Everything started turning black. The sky peeled away then the trees and finally the ground. Now she was in a completely black void. Was she dead? Had she died in her sleep?. Soon she heard whispers. Then she heard a voice. "You don't look like her?". She looked around trying to reach out into their mind. "You're different". The voice said again. "W-Who are you!". She called out to the voice. "I.....Cannot tell you that but I can help you". The voice said calmly. "How can you help me?". She asked the voice. "I can give you directions to the next continent, but you must be careful". The voice warned her. "The continent is by one of the Webwing islands and it faces Southwest, it is very dangerous". Suddenly a shaking woke her up, It was Drizzle. "Violet are you awake!, I see something!". He whisper yelled with Sól and Mist beside him. She got up rubbing her head. She looked to where he was pointing and saw a purple glow. Why would something glow purple?. They had quietly walked over to where the glow was coming from and saw a sandstone house like the one from the crystal. They went to the side of the house and peeked from the corner. From there they saw a Webwing but it was Dark Green with Darker spots on them. They had purple wings and purple glow patches. That would explain the purple glowing. The dragon was talking with someone else that was a light honey yellow with black scales on all four of their legs fading into the same yellow. Their wing membrane was a darker Yellow-Orange color. She knew they were talking about something but could only hear certain words. "So have you-". The dark Green dragon said. "No but I will-". The yellow dragon replied. "We will try-". The Dark Green dragon said. After spying on them for a while Violet had decided to walk over to them and have the group stay by the sandstone house. "Why are you staring behind me?". The Light Yellow dragon said. The Dark Green dragon pointed to her and she froze for a moment before the Yellow dragon turned around. The Yellow dragon looked at her before speaking. "Why are you here?, Are you spying on us!". The dragon yelled. "No, no i-I'm not spying on you I need you for...something". The Yellow dragon looked at her for a moment. "Okay?, What do you need me for?". The dragon said looking at her friend. She had a necklace made from a crystal and multiple bags on her body. When she turned left she saw that went from her neck to her left back leg. The scar had started at one scar and faded into three. The Yellow dragon made a signal with her talons and the green dragon went into the water and swam away. "I need you for a prophecy". She said. The Yellow dragon looked at her. "You need me?, For a prophecy?, I leave here it's my home". She looked at the Yellow dragon. "Well if you don't want to save the other dragons on the other continent that's fine". The Yellow dragon thought for a moment. "Fine I'll come on this random journey of a prophecy". The Yellow dragon followed them back to the group. She was greeted when she came back. "Random dragon this is Sól, Drizzle and Mist, Sól, Drizzle and Mist meet.....uh". She watched as the Yellow dragon stopped up. "I am Lavender". Drizzle stepped up from the group. "Hello Lavender, I am Drizzle, nice to meet you". He said. Lavender looked at him for a second. "Uh, Nice to meet you too I guess". While Lavender was meeting the group she wondered if the dragon from her dream was in her head. She searched for the dragon in her mind before giving up. "Where do we go now Violet?". Lavender asked while looking into the sky. "We have to go near one of the Webwing islands, the one that faces Northwest". She told the group. "Why are we doing this again?". Sól asked. "We are doing this for dragons on another continent, to save them". Violet said while looking behind her. Now that is was Nighttime it was a bit harder to see. Drizzle had climbed into the hammock while her and Sól lifted it into the air. "A-Are you sure w-we're going the r-right direction". Mist asked from behind them. "Yes we are going the right way I saw it". She said. "Well why are we hovering here? let's go!". Lavender yelled.
They had finally gotten to the Webwing islands and were exhausted even after a few breaks and eating they were still exhausted. "Can we sleep now, my limbs are sore!".Sól complained. "Yes we can rest, but after the rest we will have to get to the continent as soon as we wake up". Violet said. She had laid her head down on the grass and had quickly fallen asleep. She awoke but instead of waking up on the island she woke up in a dining hall. There was a large rectangular table with loads of food like bread, meat berries and other foods. She was at the side with two Boulderwings. The two Boulderwings had crowns that had gems in them. Some of the gems she knew, one of them was Opal, The Opal was a pale blue with some Ruby and Garnet. The other Boulderwing had a crown with Gold, Ruby and Emerald, which was a very rare gem to find. She looked down at her own talons and she was also a Boulderwing. She was a Pale Blue color and had very light purple wings that almost looked white. The Boulderwing with Opal in their crown raised a goblet of something and started speaking. "Attention all Boulderwings, I would like to make an announcement!, Since you all know that we have a son he will soon be crowned King, and if he has a Queen she will be crowned as well". She started coughing a bit but continued. "I would like to -cough- make...another.....". She stopped and started coughing more violently this time. She took a sip of her glass but it seemed that wasn't helping her. She got out of her chair but stumbled to the floor and started seizing. The dragon sitting next to her got out of his chair as well. But before she could see what happened the scene crumbled away. She was in the same black void as before. "Hello?.....Void dragon, was I supposed to see that?". It was silent. ".....No you weren't...I'm sorry, sometimes memories flow out and dragons see what they aren't supposed to". There was silence for a while. "It's okay, it's not your fault". She said. "You have to go to the first Webwing island and go Southwest like I told you last time, There will be a small island. Rest there and keep going". The dragons voice faded away as she woke up. She looked around and saw that only Lavender was awake. "How was your sleep, Lavender?". She asked her. "It was well, At least it's quiet without the two of them bickering". Lavender said while motioning to Sól and Drizzle. It was true it was usually loud with the two of them bickering. Between her mind reading and them bickering it felt like yelling that went on forever. I like this journey but I hate arguing it's SO annoying. At least I will get to see the continent again, maybe find my mom. Lavender thought. What did Lavender mean by going to the continent again? And what did it have to do with her mom. The others had woken up a bit sooner and they had started on their journey. Ever since she woke up she couldn't shake off the dream she had about the Boulderwing. What happened to the Boulderwing? Are they ok? Did they pass away?. It had taken a few hours and they had flown until their wings hurt. She saw that Sól was about to drop Drizzle. "Lavender, Do you mind helping me?". She asked. "No I don't mind". Lavender said, taking the part of the hammock Sól had. Ha!, The Solarwing cant even carry a pink Webwing to a continent. Well I flew to the continent myself and since I trained my wings I could probably do it myself. Lavender thought as she picked up the hammock. What did she mean by 'Flew to it herself' and why did she train her wings?. She hoped they didn't land in a Jungle. She looked at Lavender and it looked as though she was looking at something. "Hey, did any of you guys know that there's an island out here?". Lavender said while pointing somewhere. "I don't see anything?". Violet said. "T-there's an i-island where?". Mist asked from behind them. Drizzle had fallen asleep so thee was no answer. "You guys could be hallucinating!". Sól told them. Lavender had guided them to the island that she found. It was a small grassy island with a few jagged rocks around the edges.
While they were resting she felt a weird presence in her head like something was trying to get in her head. When she laid down to rest the feeling got stronger. Hello?... Is someone there? She asked in her head. Was it the Void dragon from her dreams? ...Is someone there? A voice in her head asked. Hello, Yes someone is here, Are you ok? She heard the dragon sigh. Unfortunately not. I have been trapped here for...What year is it? The dragon asked. It's 5,506 AS why? Oh dear...Is Bronze king yet?. The dragon in her head asked. He was... But Fossil is King now. She told the dragon in her head. Wait...Are you trapped here?. She asked the dragon. I.....Am, I have been trapped here since 5,486 AS I don't know how I got here... Please help me out. The dragon pleaded. I don't know how to do that but after the prophecy I promise that I will get you out. She told the dragon. Be careful. The dragon told her. I will, My seeing will help me. She wondered who the dragon in her head was, she didn't know so for now she called him Helpful. All of a sudden she had a vision. There was a dragon that was a Dull Orange color with a Solarwing horn but they had small moons on them that were two times smaller. They also had small teardrops next to their eyes. It flashed to white before showing her a Volcano but there were dragons coming out of it. The white flashed again. There was snow and dragons with feathers. Another flash happened. A jungle appeared and then a wooden structure in a tree. It had soon faded away before she was left standing by herself while they rested. Lavender was the first to wake up and when she did she greeted Violet and waited quietly for the others. Drizzle woke up second, Sól was third and Mist was fourth. All three of them were still drowsy from sleep. Lavender helped her with lifting Drizzle into the hammock. Violet knew everyone would be hungry so she had gotten some dried lizard and handed some to the group. They had kept flying and Violet still couldn't see anything and didn't understand how Lavender saw the island. "Hey Lavender, How did you see the island before we did?". Lavender looked at her. "I guess I can see better than you guys". When Lavender looked at her she could see that she had a very small horn. She hadn't noticed it before. Why does Lavender have a horn like a Solarwing?. They had continued on their journey and even though they had rested they still felt tired. Hello Helpful are you there?. There was no answer. Had she gotten to far away from him? Oh... Hello, what do you need?. He asked her. Can a Candlewing have a small horn like a Solarwing?. She asked him. Hmm... Unless they are a hybrid, but children usually get their dominant genes from their mothers..So the horn could be from their father. Helpful told her. Thank you Helpful. She said. you're welcome. They had continued flying and didn't know how much farther they needed to go. She could tell that Drizzle had woken up because the hammock would shift a bit when he moved. They didn't really know if the continent existed. What if it wasn't real at all?. Lavender picked her head up. "I see it, We've found it!". The group had started flying faster.
When they had landed they landed in some sandy dunes with some grass to the right of them. She looked at the sand dunes and saw that it looked a lot like the Solarwing kingdom. In the distance she could see outlines of something. "Hey Lavender, Do you see the things in the distance?". She asked her. "Oh, Yes I do, they seem to be buildings". She said as she started walking towards them. Drizzle walked besides her like he always did. She draped the hammock over her back and saw Sól walking besides Drizzle. Mist and Lavender were walking to her left. Walking was easier than straining their wings more. While they were walking they noticed the buildings were getting taller as they got closer. Violet never knew buildings could be so tall. She soon realized that as they were getting closer she could see more buildings and she saw dragons flying. They had reached the buildings and there was an archway and saw there was a sign that read: City of the Eclipse. What did that mean?. And why was it the City of the Eclipse?. They had walked through the archway and saw tons of huge buildings with dragons coming out of them. In the middle of the huge buildings that were scattered everywhere was a huge palace with a fountain in the middle of the place. There was a sign near the fountain that read: Queens Palace^, Jobs<, Markets and Shops>. She started near the markets as they had almost run out of food. She saw that there were lots and lots of markets. Some of the markets were filled with things that were mostly food. There were lots of fruits, breads, flowers, meats that were hung on a metal rack, fish and vegetables. Some of them she didn't know. She knew some of them like a tomato and a carrot. She didn't know the others. She looked around and saw some fruits that she hadn't tried yet. The others followed closely behind her. Oh, Some new customers!.....Oh they look...different?. The merchant thought. "Can I buy some of these?". She asked the merchant. She has a teardrop scale by her eyes. I know someone like that. "Sure how much would you like?". She looked at how big the fruits were and they were about the size of both her talons. The fruits were red and green with spikes on them. "I would like five please". She asked. The merchant looked behind him. There's Five of them and it's going to be.....Oh! It's a discount day!. The merchant turned around. "That will be three scales please". She looked into her bag and dug around for three scales. She found them and handed them to the merchant. The merchant handed the fruits to her and she put them in her bag. "Hey Violet, can you mind read why this dragon is coming towards us?". Sól said looking at the dragon that was coming at them. The dragon had armor on and was holding a spear. I don't know these dragons and Queen Blaze always said to take unknown dragons straight to her. Hmm, these dragons don't seem to be running? Have they never been here before?. The dragon walked towards them faster. "They are taking us to the Queen, maybe the queen can help us". She said. Sól looked at her. "But what if she kills us?, or exiles us?". He said while looking at the dragon. "I don't think she will". Violet said. The dragon had come up to them holding his spear at them. "I will escort to the Queens palace, come with me". The dragon said as he walked behind them. They had gone out the way they came and turned where they saw a sign. They passed the sign and went up a flight of stairs. In front of them was a doorway that the guard had to open with a key. The door opened slowly and a large hallway was in front of them. They walked for a while and stopped at a throne made of Marble with stones embedded into them like Ruby, Quartz, Obsidian and even Jasper. There were two hallways on either side of the throne. A large dragon sat on the throne. They were a Dark Grey with their wings fading into a lighter grey and their feet and tail were a Blazing Orange and it looked as if the dragon was on fire. The dragon looked at them and at the guard. "Oh!, New visitors!, I haven't seen you before?, hmmm". I would throw a moon festival party but I have a few errands to run that day. Is that tomorrow or the day after? Maybe I should throw a private party! I don't know if the Pink one would like dried lizards. He looks to be made for swimming, the one with the horn and egg, I don't know what to do with him. The one with the Galaxy in her wings looks pretty. "Amber, can you tell me why these five are here?". The dragon said. "I- Uh you said to bring any unknown dragon into the palace and I don't know them so I brought them here". The dragon blinked. "Well as your Queen I respect your decision but you must escort them out". She shooed him away. The guard turned towards them. "Wait!, I have a...Prophecy". The Queen looked at Violet. "You do?, and what does that have to do with us?". She asked her. "It said to stop a battle between lands across the sea and I wanted to ask if you had any other tribes here that are in any conflict?". She asked the Queen. "Well as Queen Blaze of the Eclipsewings I will say that there had been a conflict between us the Moltenwings and the Featherwings. The Moltenwings come here to steal trees from the forest by the North and they keep trying to have the Featherwings give them territory". Queen Blaze told them while speaking with her talons. Well there's that one tribe that disappeared a few two hundred years ago I think they disappeared into the sky and into space. Why didn't she tell her about the missing tribe?. "Is anything else like more dragons or hidden stuff?". The Queen looked at her then at a window in the palace. "Well there was this tribe that was here but they went extinct they were called Seamwings they could spin silk... I forgot what else they could do, but the Moltenwings and Seamwings had a war. The Moltenwings stole trees from the Seamwings so the Seamwings went extinct". Queen Blaze said. "So the Seamwings went extinct because of the Moltenwings?". She asked Queen Blaze. "Yes they have although some of my dragons have had speculations of them being alive I think they are extinct". Queen Blaze said while pointing to herself. But if the Seamwings are extinct what's in the forest?. "Have you ever journeyed into the forest?". She asked Queen Blaze. "Well I have sent dragons in there to see what was in there and they never came out and I think that's kind of creepy". Queen Blaze said while looking out the window. "Well I think you five should be on your way, I'll have Uh... hmmm, Solar!, get in here!". Queen Blaze yelled down the hallway to her left. They heard talonsteps down the hallway and a Dull Orange dragon emerged. The dragon named Solar was a Dull Orange with Small moons and had a teardrop scale next to their eyes. This dragon was from her vision!. But how would she get to the Volcano and Snowy place?. "Can you please escort these five out?, Near the forest? Maybe the trees can provide shelter". Solar nodded and led them down the hallway to the door. He opened the door with a key and flew them to the forest.
