Sturdy As Ice (Winter & Moonwatcher) [EDITING]

Chapter 3 (EDITED)

MOON'S POV

I couldn't believe what I saw... never in any of my visions or readings have I seen anything close to it. Just as I finished reading all of it the prophecy reversed back to its original form.

"Is everything alright Moon?" Starflight questioned me as he cleared his throat.

"O-um-I-no-wait." I stuttered as I soon rambled words.

Deep breaths Moon! Just act as if you never read that thing or anything. Starflight just let out a sigh as he continued to do whatever he was doing. I quickly rolled the scrolled neatly and placed it back to its original place before dashing out of the library like a mad dragon except I wasn't a mad dragon. Just as I exited the library and was about to enter the main hallway which was filled with dragons at the current time since the bell just ranged, I could see Kinkajou bright yellow and red at the very end.

"MOON! MOON! MOON! It's me Kinkajou!" she screamed causing some dragons to look at her direction then mines.

I lowered my face while walking towards Kinkajou slightly embarrassed not because of Kinkajou's screaming my name but about the stares I were receiving. Maybe if I wasn't a mind reader I wouldn't be this scared since I know exactly what they're thinking as they stared at me.

"Who is that weird small Nightwing that overly bright pain-in-the-eye RainWing was screaming at?"

"Three moons! Shut up you RainWing... but then if it weren't for that NightWing then she wouldn't have been screaming at first. Ugh... NightWings always a burden."

"Exactly why I would never befriend a RainWing. Guess Moon was too desperate for a friend. HA! No wonder she's a outcast that will never be normal for a NightWing."

"Poor Moon. I know exactly how she feels right now. Wait no Sunny, stop staring at her!"

At least not all of them were bad but by now I was already used to hear nasty stuff about me. I finally lifted my head up to see Kinkajou but not as red as she was 7 seconds before. Oh, now I know why she was mad at me temporarily.

 *sigh

"I'm sorry for leaving you all alone during free period." I apologised finally realising my mistake. I don't think I can risk losing Kinkajou no matter what. 

"Apology accepted but I'm still mad at you! Like a tiny bit, about the size of a scavenger's eyeball? Its still there but I love you. Also I wasn't exactly alone thankfully I found Turtle in our new cave." Kinkajou rambled on without stopping.

If only I could talk as confident and as easily Kinkajou could. Maybe then I could fit in with the other NightWings and have tons of friends and Mom wouldn't be labeled as a traitor. Maybe I should ask lessons from Kinkajou but I don't think I can ever do it well enough to not make it seem forced and fake. Oh yeah the prophecy, wait the prophecy. Thats right, I haven't got time to think about what it meant! Lets see now um something two, shall, twist, and walls. That was all I could remember before they returned back to meaningless words. Again and again my own self gets in the way of everything.

"Hey! Pyrrhia to Moon? Did you listen to what I was talking about?" Kinkajou stated as she snapped her talons in front of my eyes.

"Oh, no? Sorry" I apologised as she finally took me out of my deep thinking. 

"I was busy thinking of something." I confessed as she deserves to know about it as my best friend. 

"And just what exactly are you thinking that made you ignore me speak for over 5 minutes?" Kinkajou asked/squealed in excitement just as I expected. 

I took a deep breath ready to tell her everything, "This may sound really strange."

So I told her everything from how I ran to the library to get a book about prophecies and how the words started changing to other words in the middle of my reading. However I failed to recall and told her what the prophecy stated because of my dumb self again. 

Winter's POV

I didn't waste any time strolling around by the mountains as I quickly fly as fast and as quick my wings could take me back to Jade Winglet. I wasn't sure yet who to tell but for some odd reason I had this sudden urge to tell someone. Its not just important... it felt necessary. The flight back was quite long as the cold wing and quiet atmosphere lead me to some deep thinking again. 

 Qibli? No, just no since I told him about my last important news all he could do was act all smart and question me until I finally finished the talk by myself. 

Kinkajou? Definitely not, she's certainly going to blab it by accident or her loud annoying voice will just give it away and its not like she's gonna be able to help me or something. 

Turtle? I don't think I can trust this information with a dragon I've never even talked to even though he's quiet and secretive.

Dragonets of Destiny? They're not gonna help. Final. They're just gonna give me a boring lecture about their own story blab blab blab.

Moon? ... That's it. She's quiet, smart, and its exactly what my gut and brain is telling me to do so. It is decided then, I shall share this information with Moon. 

I was right above Jade Mountain and was going to land when I stopped mid-air since I just remembered something important as I would say it. I was about to tell Moon something important but then I recalled that I have never talked to her without giving a look of disgust, dislike, or hate. Ugh, I'm going to have to talk to her and bring her privately... I just hope no dragons think of this as something else.
