Wings of Power

Overprepared

ITS HERE! It's finally happening. A key chapter. If you did not read my author notes chapter then this is what a key chapter is. A key chapter is the sole reason this fic even happens. There were only 5 key points in this whole fic and I am so excited to finally be here.

Either way song for today is a very, very specific song from a certain time and place, it's a live song. (1993 Mexico City, The Ecstasy of Gold / Enter Sandman) Metallica.

"CLAY!" Everybody yelled seeing Clay thrown into Peril thinking he was going to be fried to a crisp.

That was not the case though. When Clay hit the ground everybody was expecting him to at least be covered in burns all over his body, and at the worst... what they were not expecting was for him to get up like nothing even remotely warm ran into him.

Clay got up and shook his head to get rid of the dizziness, "Crap, who did I flatten?" Clay said knowing he ran into somebody on the way down.

Peril jumped up knowing that Clay was going to be badly burned, "CLAY I'm so sorry, you just... you're alright?" Peril was baffled at the fact Clay wasn't screaming in agony with burns all over his body.

"Yea, why wouldn't I be?" Clay asked confused with how frantic Peril was, he only fell a few dragon length's down. He has been through way worse than that when he was training with everybody.

"Clay... you ran straight into Peril, how are you not burned?" Starflight asked confused and also happy that Clay wasn't hurt.

"Wait, your prophecy said that you were born from a blood-red egg, right?" Coral asked Clay.

"Yea, what does that have to do with anything?" Clay asked still confused.

"How do you not know this? Almost everybody knows Mudwings born from blood-red eggs are almost completely fireproof" Coral said.

"Nobody ever told me or my friends," Clay said frowning, already thinking about how that would have been helpful in so many situations he has been in.

Everybody was thinking about the same thing Clay was thinking but Peril on the other hand... "Holly shit... he is fireproof... That means I have a chance with him!" nobody saw it, but Peril got a huge grin on her face with that thought.

"Look, I don't mean to seem greedy and ask you guys for more help but... considering Blister literally has us surrounded..." Coral asked them hoping that they would say yes.

"Ohh don't worry, this definitely goes on one of our red flags," Sunny said remembering the list they made a little while back.

"...What?" Coral asked confused at what Sunny said.

"Don't worry about what she said, yes we will help you," Tsunami said.

Coral sighed "thank you, you go on ahead, I am going to try and rally the troops to make a counter-offensive" Coral dived off the platform, heading to the barracks with Gill and the guard following behind her.

"So... shall we try this again?" Clay asked with a smile on his face. Everybody got a smile on their face in excitement.

"Remember try not to kill anybody if we don't have to, we are trying to keep the peace, not slaughter them all, but if you have..." Starflight said

Everybody jumped up into the air when they started hearing wingbeats above them, knowing the invasion was here.

The dragonets busted through the canopy to see hundreds of sand wings flying overhead.

Undeterred, the dragonets kept on charging ahead heading straight up into the middle of the army.

four of the Sandwings in the army laughed at the dragonets and started charging at them... less to say it was a poor decision.
