⚠️ Warning! Contains spoilers for book 14 ⚠️
Some of these events happened in book 14 I'm just changing stuff. This chapter is basically me if my little brother got a girlfriend, except I wouldn't allow her to live. :D I've been out of writing practice so forgive me for this chapter.
Blue's face was twisted with discomfort, entire parts of his body covered in soot. Swordtail curled up against his friend. Swordtail put a wing over Blue with a sigh. Poor Blue. He shouldn't have to deal with all of this. Blue's face was stained with tears, and he looked like he hadn't really slept for several days.
Blue yawned, getting up and mumbled, "Swordtail?" Blue rubbed his eyes with another yawn. "Wha-what-why are you here?" His gaze darted around and he turned a disappointed, sad face to Swordtail.
"I..."
"I..."
"I...I burned it all down..."
Blue said through teary eyes. Swordtail looked at him sympathetically.
"It's not your fault." Swordtail tried to reassure him.
"No, I did those things, I hurt that dragonet, it was all me."
"Wasp made you do those things Blue, it's not your fault, you couldn't control yourself."
Blue was quiet. "Do you think-that they made it to the other continent," He whispered eventually, changing the subject.
Swordtail nodded. I'm really not sure, but we have to have hope.
Cricket
Cricket dried her tears. "It's okay, I wanted to know," She whispered to Luna. Luna blinked at her, pity in her gaze. "Blue is okay, he has to be, Wasp and the Othermind need him."
Try as she might, Cricket couldn't help wondering what was going on in Pantala, and if her friends and family were actually safe.
At least he's alive. Cricket thought with relief. Not able to chase away that small sense of dread building up inside her.
Blue's going to be okay, She reassured herself.
Luna shook out her wings, sitting at the beach.
Cricket quietly approached the SilkWing.
"You know, I never thought things would happen like they did when I went through my metamorphosis," Luna chuckled.
Cricket sat beside the SilkWing.
Neither did I. But things turned out for the better, I would do it all again if I could.
For him.
For the HiveWings.
To save all of them.
Plus, not to mentions, she was basically in one of her dreams, the other continent, she had always been told it was only a myth.
But here she was, surrounded by different dragons from different tribes on another continent.
With the dragon we've spent days looking for.
Who would have thought that Luna would be on Phyrria?
And they had magic, real magic, like Clearsight magic.
One day I'll bring Katydid here.
She had been rather surprised to find that Phyrria was filled with trees.
The only trees she had seen were the ones in the greenhouses and the one she was growing.
Bumblebee crawled up her tail onto her back, and slid into the sling.
She peeked her head out to stare wide-eyed at Luna.
"If we go back to Pantala, we can fix things, it will go back to what it should be, Blue and Swordtail will be okay, and no one has to die." Luna said confidently.
I hope so, Cricket thought skeptically.
"Hey," Luna said, putting a talon on Cricket's shoulder. "He's going to be okay, remember what Snowfall said?" Cricket nodded with a sniff.
"Luna," Cricket asked awkwardly. "How-erm-how did you well-er-get um-know how you felt about-er-um-" Cricket stared awkwardly at her talons.
Why am I asking Blue's SISTER of all dragons!?
Luna raised an eyebrow. "He-asked me first?" She said in a questioning voice.
"W-what?" Cricket asked in surprise.
"Oh please." Luna said with an eye roll.
"You were obvious when you were asking and talking all about Blue, come on."
"I'm not an idiot, Cricket."
Cricket chuckled nervously.
"Sooooo...what happened when I got blown here?"
Cricket's eyes lit up.
"Blue started his metamorphosis so we ran down into the caves and stood there and Sundew came back with Swordtail after a few days. And then Blue came out of metamorphosis and he's a flamesilk like you, isn't that fascinating! (I did not have to get my books out for this obviously.)
"It was kind of obvious. Poor Blue," Luna said with a frown. "I wish I was there for him," Luna said sadly.
"How was he-Blue-I mean-after everything-and-"
Cricket hesitated. What should I say? Three moons, I REALLY wish Blue was here!
"We looked for you, and thank the moons! We found you! Sorry it had to be in all this disaster going on in the world but, we're here, finally!"
Luna laughed.
"And after that we went to Jewel Hive and I kind of got arrested. But then I found out how Wasp's mind control works! We can set all the HiveWings free Luna!"
Luna's eyes lit up. "How?"
"She stabs the eggs with a plant called the Breath of Evil. And when they hatch she can control them. That's how I got Bumblebee." Cricket gave the dragonet an affectionate glance.
"Wow..." Luna said after a few moments.
"What happened next?" She asked, keen on knowing what she missed out on.
"Sundew, Blue, Swordtail, Bumblebee, and I went to the Poison Jungle and met other LeafWings. But then we found this Hawthorn guy and he tried to kill us and then we had to flee to Phyrria and well, here we are!"
Luna nodded.
"I wonder what Blue and Swordtail are doing now." Luna said quietly.
"They're probably-I don't know-worrying about us mostly." Cricket answered.
Luna nodded. "I bet Blue's worrying about you more though." She said, waving a talon in Cricket's face.
Cricket flushed, looking down at her talons.
Luna smiled at her.
"Tell me more about you." Luna said.
"What I'm just curious to know about my little brother's girlfriend."
Cricket opened her mouth to speak.
"Ok, that's enough." Luna said, silencing her. "I'm testing you to see if you are worthy."
"You seem like a decent enough dragon for my brother." She said, narrowing her eyes.
"Um...thanks?" Cricket said, confused. What does she mean?
"Anyways, when you guys have dragonets I'm going to be the best aunt ever, you'll see."
"I approve of you both." Luna said, waving her talons.
"But don't break his heart or else."
