Chapter 10: Desert Camp
Sunset had begun to paint the skyline of Phyrria with gorgeous red, yellows, oranges, and purples when Cactus and Nameless soared over Blister's camp in the desert kingdom.
"There it is!" Cactus shouted into Nameless's ear over the screaming winds around them.
"I see, ACK!! Could you maybe, NOT grip so tightly? I promise there is no way in Phyrria I will let you fall from this height!! And those funky little serrated claws you have doesn't help exactly either." Nameless winced in pain.
"Sorry..."
The NightWing to a sharp, vertical dive, his wings flaring open to catch him just before they hit the ground, "WOOOHOOO!!!" The SandWing gripped his jet-black scales even tighter with fear.
"SSSHHHHH." She hissed, giving Nameless a sharp whack on the back of the head with her unhurt talon.
"Ow! Okay!" He squawked. He steadied his wings to glide lazy over the sand dunes.
With a few hard wingbeats, Nameless slowly lowered himself onto the sand within sight of the camp's entrance.
Cactus jumped nimbly off of the NightWing's back, "Stay here." she said, "Blister will kill you if she sees you."
"Be safe, Little Sneak." Nameless said, sitting in the sand and removing the now empty fruit basket from the SandWing's healing back. Cactus turned and ran to the camp's entrance as fast as she could go.
