*this story takes place years after the events of The Flames of Hope*
Princess Sandshark flew through the raging storm, rain pounding down on her beating wings. She tucked her fragile egg to her chest, sheltering it from the rain. The rainforest faded behind her as she reached the beach. She dove into the crashing waves and swam as fast as she could. The palace was just ahead as she rushed through the thundering sea.
"Sandshark? What are you doing out in this storm?" a flash of her name caught her eye and she turned to see who else was crazy enough to swim through the storm. Her eyes widened as she saw her mother, Queen Auklet, staring at her curiously.
"Oh, um, just taking a quick swim while no one else is out." she flashed back quickly while carefully hiding the egg under her wing. Her mother looked slightly puzzled but shrugged and nodded.
"Dont stay out to long, I would hate for you to keep Driftwood waiting." Auklet flashed quickly and winked before rushing away. Sandshark blinked, confused, before the realization hit her. She thinks I'm in love with Driftwood. She frowned, thinking sadly about the grey-blue seawing with kind, crinkled eyes that had been chasing after her heart since they were dragonets. Then, she got an idea. Driftwood would do anything to make me happy... If I ask him to pretend to be the father, I'm sure he would! She raced off to Driftwood's hut and prepared to knock on the door before it swung open.
"Sandshark! What are you doing here?" flashed a grinning Driftwood as he ushered her in.
"Driftwood, I-I have to ask you something." she flashed as he sat her down at his dinner table. She pulled out the egg and his eyes widened. "Can you keep a secret?"
