Wings Of Fire: The Wings Of War

~Chapter 6~

Tundra was still awake by the time the sun was up. She rolled over to the sound of Dune coming out of the sand.

Tundra stood up, stretched, and poked Sandstorm to wake her up.

"Good morning," Sandstorm said.

"Good morning," Both Tundra and Dune replied.

"Well I got zero sleep last night," Tundra said.

"You think you can make it for today's travel?" Sandstorm asked.

"I'm fine," Tundra replied.

"We should get moving fast before someone sees us," Dune said.

They all sprung into the air and were flying for a good hour or so before anyone said a word. All of a sudden Dune started to talk.

"Wait, what about the rest of your team Sandstorm, where are they?" Dune said worriedly.

Oh no Tundra said. I completely forgot about that.

"I have no idea, I sent them back to the palace," Sandstorm said.

"Oh wonderful, so now we have a whole group of Sandwings that know who the only known animus dragon is, JUST WONDERFUL," Tundra said.

"Oh relax," Dune said.

"Easy for you to say, You're not the one basically being HUNTED," Tundra snapped.

"No one is being hunted, you big wimp. You're fine, relax. We don't need to worry unless we hear a rumor of it or something," Dune said.

Tundra just shut up and kept on flying.

After a little while they landed at a water hole and got a drink.

Tundra all the sudden heard a loud roar coming from the west. She saw a Sandwing in the distance with a Skywing soldier chasing after them. As they got closer she could see a lot of blood and fresh wounds on him.

Without even thinking she flew into the air and went towards them. She threw herself in front of the Skywing soldier. The soldier crashed into her and both fell out of the sky hitting the ground. Dune and Sandstorm came running towards her to help.

"Tundra what are you doing!" Dune shouted.

"I'm helping this Sandwing," Tundra shouted back, pointing at him.

Both Tundra and Dune joined her and were beside her.

"Do you really think you three scare me?" The soldier mocked.

The stray Sandwing crashed behind them.

"You should be, It's three against one, odds seem pretty low for you." Sandstorm said.

The soldier snarled at them and took a step closer.

"Don't even think about it," Tundra said snarling back.

"Why?" The soldier started. "What's the worst that's gonna happen? I die? You die? Not like it's uncommon. Besides you three don't look the type to kill other dragons."

"Why are you attacking this dragon?" Dune asked, ignoring him.

"This dragon was a traitor to Queen Scarlet, and Queen Scorch." The soldier said.

Dune snorted.

"Queen Scorch?" Tundra echoed. "She actually thinks she's the queen? Funny."

The soldier snarled. "She will be soon, Venom is terrible and she is weak. Scorch will take her down instantly."
