The group woke up next morning and immediately started working on their way to leave the delta. It wasn't a very long trip with the delta just being a kingdom sized mix of small swamps and rivers, with lots of cat-tails, and other plant life. The delta feeds both the water to the Mud Kingdom, but it also gives water to the Rain Kingdom, thus the reason why both kingdoms have such wet and humid climates.

With the dragonets still unused to how everything looks, they were all quite enthralled with how beautiful everything looks. The vast marshes, and not very wide, but never-ending streams that went every way you would look. It was quite a sight. It was even more enjoyable with all the wildlife they saw on the way. All the wading birds and birds that were feeding on the mudflats.

Either way though, it didn't take them more than an hour to cross the delta. It didn't take long to see signs of the Mud Kingdom, with them coming across more and more swamp type environments.

"I think we just crossed the Mud Kingdom border." Starflight yelled out to the group.

"Anybody know the exact location of the kingdom?" Sunny asked, looking every way she could.

"Not sure, look for any movement you see, we can ask somebody where it is." Clay said.

"Hey guys, I see smoke up ahead!" Peril said, pointing to the horizon.

"Let's go, might be the kingdom!" Clay said, starting to go a little faster.

It was not the kingdom... it was a full-on scale battle. Icewings and Mudwings were ramming into each other, trying to rip each other's throats out. Fire and ice breath was everywhere, but there were no casualties... yet.

"Peril! Get in there and stop the Icewings from killing anybody!" Clay ordered her, "I'll stop the Mudwings!"

Clay and Peril dove right down, headfirst into a group of dragons. Clay covered one of his claws in rocks and hit both a Icewing and a Mudwing in the head, knocking them silly. "Stop this fight now, its OVER!"

"And who are you to order us around?" a big female Icewing said, coming forwards in front of the group of Icewings.

"Look...what is this fight even going to get you, hell... how did you even get here, the Ice kingdom is on the complete opposite side of the kingdom, there is no way this battle here is even remotely helpful to you!" Clay started yelling. "The only reason you are even here is to kill!"

The female Icewing looked at him not impressed, "And I ask you again, who are you to order me, Princess Icicle... what to do?"

Clay just snorted in amusement, "My name is Clay! Dragonet of destiny, and I don't care if you were the queen herself!"

This made Icicle snarl, "How DARE you! I will kill you myself!". She was about to jump at Clay, but a Mudwing jumped at her. Icicle grabbed the Mudwing by the throat and slammed the Mudwing into the ground. Icicle raised her claws getting ready to slash the throat out of the female Mudwing.

"No!" Clay and another Mudwing yelled, trying to get to Icicle before she could kill the Mudwing on the ground. It was to late, the Mudwing's throat had been slashed and she was starting to choke on her own blood.

Clay slammed a claw into the ground, a pillar shot out of the ground and slammed right into Icicles head, knocking her out cold.

Clay looked at the rest of the Icewings, "Leave now, and I just might spare your princess!"
