                            The wind blew against Tom's face. He had a dream. A dream to become the most famous and the most richest adventurer of all land. The most valuable item that can be bestowed on his hands were the wings of dragons. The fire breathing creature was deathly, holding so many abilities that weren't jotted down by previous adventurers that were slain. The wings held immense power and could be sold in the black market, it is also known as the most valuable item there too. No one has ever defeated a dragon before and no one wanted to even try getting the wings. Some dragons were far too harsh. Some dragons were kind but didn't hesitate to kill those who betrayed their friendship. 

Dragons were friendly most of the time on the islands. They only got hostile if one declared a fight or pulled out a weapon in front of the island villagers. Tom was going to have a hard time getting the wings. Even just a scale of a dragon would be enough for a few hundred gold coins but Tom wanted more than just a few hundred. He already had enough of that. He wanted billions of gold coins, to be even richer than the king of Tom's homeland.  

The eyeless male had brought two of his best friends, Edd and Matt. The companions were inseparable and stuck together like glue. The two just wanted to make sure Tom didn't die in the process, him being their good friend, who wouldn't be worried?

Currently, they were taking an illegal transport. 
"Tom, I don't think this is a good idea," Edd sighed.
"It'll be fine, Edd. Just trust the process," Tom chuckled. 
They were about to handglide into a wind current (idk what to call it so yes wind current from gi thank you).
"Wanna know what I think? Huh? I THINK WE'RE GONNA DIE!" Matt was about to run the other direction.

Tom yanked the tall male's scarf and yanked him back. 
"3...," Tom gripped onto the handglide, smiling in excitement.
"2...," Edd was praying to god.
"1...," Matt was pure white at this point.
"GO!!!" The three jumped off the cliff in unison.
 The sudden gust of air pushed them upwards so fast and so harshly, they nearly lost their grip. They were shot up into the air and launched above the clouds.
"I'M NEVER DOING THAT EVER AGAIN!" Matt screamed, "YOU OWE ME A FULL DAY OF YOU PAYING FOR MY FOOD!"
Tom laughed.

The sky was a beautiful blue and the clouds swam around. 
"Tom, look!" Edd pointed towards something.
It was an island, a floating island to be exact. This one was large and had a lot of greenery. 
"Perfect, let's go," Tom shifted his handglider's control.

After Edd and Tom managed to guide Matt to the island, something approached them.
"Why are you not entering through the main gate?" A low growl emitted from behind the three.
They turned around, it was a dragon in its human form.
"Uhh-" Matt went white again.
"Sorry, sir. We- took the wrong turn," Tom said.
"There are no wrong turns if your ride would've been by the tram," It snarled.
"Tom, what're we going to do," Edd whispered.

"Gotcha!" Another dragon had covered the other's eyes.
"Wha- Don't interfere with my work right now, son!" He was trying to fling the other off.
The younger dragon mouthed 'run' to the adventurers. They ran as quickly as they could to the village. 

The three had escaped and ran away into a village café.
"We have to look for that dragon, it saved us," Edd said.
"We don't have to," Tom grumbled.
 A female creature came and placed their meals on their table and said something in a language the three didn't understand. She walked away.
"Was that Dragon's tongue?' Matt asked.
"Yeah, I think so," Edd smiled.
 
"I finally found you guys!" Someone said.
The three turned around to be greeted by the dragon that saved them earlier.
"Oh, hey! We were about to look for you, thank you for uhm- saving us just now," Edd said.
"Oh, it's no problem. My dad can be a little strict with the rules sometimes," He shrugged.
"Oh, he was your dad? What's your name?" Matt asked.
"I'm Tord, you?"
"I'm Edd, this is Matt and that's Tom," Edd smiled.

The four talked for a while.
"Sooooooooooooooo, Tord," Tom said.
"Yes, Thomas?" Tord replied.
"Don't call me that. Call me Tom, as I was saying, do you happen to know of uhm... small dragons?" Tom asked.
"Small dragons? You mean young ones?"
"Yes,"
"Well... Our youngest is me," 
Edd gasped.
"How old are you?" He asked.
"In human years, I'm uhm... I don't know. In dragon years, I'm just 285 years old," 
"285 YEARS-" Matt was cut off by a hand.

They talked for two hours before the sun went down.
"Tom, where are we going to stay...?" Matt asked.
"I- I didn't think of anything that far," Tom was surprised at himself.
"You guys can stay at the nearby motel!" Tord said.
"Oh, thanks!" Edd said.

After some more talking and walking, Tord helped the three book a room.
"Enjoy your stay," Tord said before leaving.
"Guys, I've made up my mind," Tom chuckled.
"What'd you make up?" Edd asked.
Matt was going to shower.
"We're going to take Tord's wings," Tom said.
"WHAT- But, he's our friend!" Matt yelled.
"He's yours and Edd's friend. Not mine," The eyeless male stated, "Did you see them? They were huge, if I sell those I'll make too much money to even keep!"
Edd and Matt looked at each other unsurely.

Tom's plan was to gain Tord's trust first, like any other plan would go. It was the next morning and the three were looking for him.
"Are you sure Tom?" Edd asked.
"I'm very sure, Edd," Tom smirked.
A shadow swept over them from above, they looked up. There was a large dragon that flew over them, it landed at the nearby grassy plain. It transformed there to reveal Tord. 

"Tord!" Tom jogged over, "We were just looking for you."
"Oh, really? Sorry but I'm busy at the moment," Tord apologized.
"What're you doing?" Edd asked.
"I taking flying lessons because I'm still a bit wonky at it," Tord chuckled.
A loud roar emitted from above. Another big dragon came flying down.
"Don't slack off! Let's go!" She yelled.
Tord waved goodbye.

"Tom, we're practically strangers to him. All we did was talk a little bit yesterday and it was mostly about Matt," Edd said.
"Hey! I can't help but talk about my handsomeness," Matt smiled.
"Well, we'll get to know him more then. The most important part is where he lives," Tom stated.
Edd sighed.
