Wings of Power

Introduction to Power

I recommend going to my music list I have posted for this link to get the right feeling I was going for while writing this story. Right at this moment I am listening to whiplash, I posted the URL on my profile bio. I am now starting to regret now making the last chapter bigger. Right after I posted it, I looked at the clock and I realized that I still had plenty of time left in my day to write and I had already come up with ideas to add on to the last chapter so I am going to try to make this chapter longer to make up for last chapter. Now, onto the story. Don't be afraid to comment and review the story, criticism helps.
On the other side of the cave with Tsunami and Dunes. "Alright Tsunami it's time to see if you have any natural talent at fighting at all. For are first time fighting I will go easy on you, you are too young for me to go hard on you yet."
Tsunami nodded and got ready in her best fighting stance at the edge of the underground river that runs through the cave. "Now, I want you to go all out on me, don't worry about hurting me I will be fine." said Dunes confidently.
With that, Tsunami immediately pounced at Dunes and went for his neck. She was slapped midair and flew straight into the river.
"Shit... I hope I didn't hit her too hard, I told her I would go easy on her." muttered Dunes. After a few moments he got worried and walked over to the edge of the river where Tsunami went flying into to try and fish her out.
The moment he made it to the edge of water a huge blast of water shot out and hit him dead on, it hit so hard it felt like getting punched by a Full grown adult mudwing. He went flying back a few feet and was out could the moment he hit the ground.
Tsunami crawled out of the water smiling to herself looking at the scene she had made. "Did I do good you dusty sandwing" she said laughing. Dunes moaned in pain "training is done for today you may go rest now." he said moaning. Tsunami happily trotted off to go have some fun in her room.
Over in the training room with Clay and Kestrel
"Mudwing, go over to that side of the room to start our training." said Kestrel pointing to the other side of the room.
Clay quickly walked over to the other side of room and faced Kestrel "How do we start this?" he asked. "Like this!" she yelled and started charging at clay
Clay flinched back and lifted up one of his arms closing his eyes trying to defend himself from the sudden charge Kestrell made at him and heard a grating sound that sounded like stone rubbing against stone.
The moment the sound stopped he heard scales slapping against stone and heard Kestrel moan in pain. Clay looked up from closing his eyes his sight was blocked by a small wall stone blocking his view of what happened to Kestrel. He looked around the small wall that had formed Infront of him and found Kestel on the ground cringing in pain and clutching at her shoulder like she had just got hurt there.
"Kestrell, what happened, why is there a rock Infront of where I was standing at?" Clay worried about her health.
Kestrell slowly got up and looked at the mudwing "I don't know why I never told you this, but the moment you were born and you came out of your egg it seemed like you were able to control the earth around you, I think that is what happened here" she said still clutching her shoulder.
"What do you mean?" Clay asked. "I have never been able to do anything like that so far."
"I think it has to do with the fact that you had never really had to defend yourself until now." She said back. "Did you feel anything when you summoned that rock wall?"
"All I did was lift up my arm to try and block you and then the next thing I know that rock wall was Infront of me and you had slammed into it." He shook his head no.
"We will test this out more later for now im gonna try and walk this off, training is done for today, go find something interesting to do for the rest of today." She said limping away.
Clay was by himself wondering what had happened and what these powers were that he was born with.
Over in a different room with Sunny and Webs
"Ok Sunny, I am going to let you start out this training session." Webs said getting into a fighting stance. Sunny just nervously nodded and prepared herself.
She started to charge at webs at first going for his neck right of the back, webs went to block her with the hard edge of his wing and swat her with his wing. The moment the she was about to hit his wing she dove under it and then dove again at his neck.
Webs quickly lifted his front part of his body up by jumping up to his hind legs and swatted Sunny straight into the ground. Sunny hit the ground and slowly got up dizzied by hitting the ground so hard. Slowly shaking her head trying to get rid of the dizziness. "How did I do?"
"Not bad at all for your first try at combat, that would not have worked if you were just a bit bigger with you being able to dive under my wing like that, but it was really smart and that is what matters." he said considerately.
"Thank you, what do we do now?" she said thanking him. "I think we are done for today, I hit you pretty hard and I think it would be good for you to take a break after that, you are still just too young to take hits like that frequently." he answered back.
Back with the rest of the dragonets
"How did you guys do?" asked Starflight as Clay, Tsunami, and Sunny walked in. Tsunami had an evil grin, Sunny looked pretty positive, and Clay just looked confused.
"Man, I absolutely clocked Dunes, he threw me into the water and I was originally going to wait in the water for him to come and find me at the edge, the moment he made it to the edge I decided I would rather punch him for making fun of glory earlier this week. The moment I thought that it was like the water agreed with me and hit him for me, it hit him so hard he was out cold." Tsunami said all while still grinning.
Clay was even more confused now. "I had something happen a lot like that during my fight, Kestrel started charging at me and I had no time to dodge so all I could do was lift up my paw and try and block her, a giant Rock wall came up out of the ground and blocked her for me. She hit it so hard she had to stop too."
Glory burst out laughing "MAN, I would have loved to see kestrel do that, that would make my day!"
"Apparently when we I was born, I was able to control the rocks around me, at least that's what kestrel said." said Clay still confused. "Apparently, I'm not the only one of us who can control stuff too."
"Sunny did you do anything like that during your fight?" asked Tsunami.
"No, but I do think my fight went pretty good, I almost got Webs by the neck." she then spotted a cut that Tsunami got on her back. "Oh my gosh Tsunami, are you ok?"
Tsunami quickly looked around her and looked at her back. "It's not that bad, it only hurts a hair bit." Sunny still wasn't satisfied. "Is there anything I can do to make it better?"
The moment she said that the gash on Tsunami's back started to glow. Tsunami immediately was alarmed at the new glowing spot on her back "What on earth." she said alarmed.
A few seconds after Tsunami asked that the glowing was gone, so wasn't the cut... "Not that I am complaining but what in the three moons was that?" she asked.
"Clay, you said that both you and Tsunami all were able to control stuff around you right?" Asked Starflight. At the question both Clay and Tsunami just nodded still bewildered at the now healed injury. "I think that might have been Sunny that healed you, Tsunami." Starflight said perplexed at this.
"Me... I did that, but how?" Sunny asked. Clay immediately thought he knew the answer to the question.
"Right before Tsunamis spot became healed what did you say again?" Clay asked to Sunny.
"All I did was ask her if I could help her with hert injury." She said confused at the situation.
"Right before the rock wall was summoned all I could think about was how I wanted to stop Kestrell from hitting me, I think our powers have to do something with us willing for something." Answered Clay.
"That ask a question though... if I have control over water, Clay has control over the earth, Sunny can heal people... what powers do You two have?" Tsunami asked excitedly.
Starflight and Glory looked at each other in excitement. "Oh man, I can't wait to see what we can do." said Starflight in excitement.
The sound of pawsteps walking there way made them all stop their conversations and made them all look over to the entrance of the cave to see Webs walking in. Webs looked over at Starflight and Glory. "Ok, who wants to go next?" Webs asked them both.
Shocking him they both said ME! At the same time. "Really? Starflight you seem like the kind of dragon that wouldn't want to do this kind of stuff at all, all righty, I will just let one of you choose who want to go first."
Starflight nodded to Glory. "Ladies first." he said sincerely. "Thank you, Starflight." she answered back gladly.
Webs looked at Glory "Ok Glory fallow me to the training room." He said leaving the room with Glory following along.
The moment they made it into the middle of the room Webs looked down at her. "All right go over there to the other side of the room so we can start this session."
She walked over to the other side of the room and turned around to look at Webs again and await instructions from him. "Ok, I let sunny start last time, so I am going to let you start this time too.
She nodded and leapt off to charge at him going straight for the kill just like sunny did by going for the neck first, and just like last time he brought up his wing to block Glory. Right before she hit his wings, two vine like plants shot up out of the ground and wound against his wing and dragged it down to the ground out of Glory's way. The fight didn't even last 4 seconds and she had him beat with her jaw around the small part of Web's neck effectively killing him in a real-life battle situation.
Webs was just frozen in shock with Glory's jaws still around him. "Goo...good job Glory, you beat me." he stuttered out in shock. "You may go now please send Starflight this way when you get there."
She let go of his neck and nodded and left to get Starflight with a satisfied smile on her face glad to know that she had powers like all her other friends had.
She made it to the room all her friends lived in and gave them all that look. She looked over at Starflight "Starflight, Webs told me to get you and tell you to go to the training room, I got control over plant life, not goanna lie, I'm also excited to see what you get from your powers." she said while looking at him happily. Starflight happily nodded and quickly jogged to the training room in excitement.
He walked into the training room just as Webs was getting out of the vines that tangled up his wing. Starflight was already putting together in his mind on how Glory had beaten Webs by tangling up his wing.
"Hello Starflight are you ready for your training session?" Webs asked to Starflight, still a little bit stunned at what Glory had done to him.
"Yep, how are we gonna start this off?" Starflight asked excitedly.
"We are going to start like how everybody else has started to make it fair, go to the other side of the room and get ready." Explained Webs.
Starflight walked over to the other side and prepared himself. "Ok I will let you have the first move." Webs told Starflight.
Instead of like the others, Starlight didn't immediately charge at him instead he started to walk around Webs trying to find an opening to attack. Webs was turning in his spot so he could follow Starflight with his eyes.
"If only I could get an opening on him, I need him to stop moving" he thought to himself. Starflight kept on studying Webs posture and body trying to find an opening. The moment he had the thought he looked down at Webs shadow, and instantly a shadow shot from his own and hooked up to Webs shadow shocking Starflight and making him stop.
He noticed that Webs was frozen to and he realized his opening instantly, he immediately charges at Webs but stopped when Webs charged too wondering why Webs broke his promise that Starflight would get the first move. The moment he stopped Webs stopped too. "Webs, I thought you were going to let me go on the offensive first." Said Starflight confused and a little annoyed at him.
"Starflight... I ... I'm not doing this, I can't control myself." Said Webs sounding like he was struggling against himself but not moving.
"Wait, what!?" said Starflight confused, a thought came to him. "Wait a minute... I need to try this out."
Starflight slowly raised his front right paw up into the air. Webs followed suit.
Starflight got an evil grin and put his paw down. He started to slowly walk towards Webs who knew what was going on now.
Starflight was able to control Webs through his shadow by hooking his shadow up Webs shadow. He walked right up to about six feet Infront of Webs and just sat down knowing he now had all day.
Webs grumbled to himself knowing this. "You going to do anything or not?" Starflight just smiled and shook his head no. "Just going to wait till you surrender"
"Fine! Ok, I surrender, you happy now?" Said Webs angrily. Starflight just kept smiling. "Yup" and he broke his connection to Webs and walked out of the room with Webs following him out.
In the room where the adults sleep at
"Can't believe I got beat by a freaking one year old!" Said Dunes angrily. "At least Tsunami had to try to beat you, Clay beat me by complete accident. He didn't even know he had powers over the earth." Said Kestrel back at him still favoring the shoulder she had smashed into the wall earlier.
With that Webs walked into the room looking worn out, beaten, and confused at what had just happened.
"So how did it go with you Webs?" Asked Dunes. Webs shook his head at this.
"Never in my life have I ever been so humiliated before. All of them beat me except for Sunny, and it's just because she didn't have some weird magic power or something weird."
Both Kestrel and Dunes looked at each other and nodded to each other like they were confirming something. Kestrel looked back at Webs. "They all have powers like that apparently." Dunes just nodded along with what Kestrel said.
"When I was walking back here after getting knocked out, I heard their conversation about how Sunny has the power to heal injuries." Said Dunes.
"I don't know where these powers came from but I do know one thing..." said Webs jokingly.
"And what would that be Webs?" Asked Dunes.
"Whoever faces them when they are released out into the world is absolutely screwed." Answered Webs.
