Wings of Fire: The Forgotten

Feel the Burn

"You don't know it's her."

"WHAT THE F- YES I DO! FIRST OF ALL, SCARS! SECOND, THIS IS HER TOWER!"

He looked at Shade's area with worry, how long before Burn wakes up? He thought. 

He hovered in front of Shade with the key and unlocked her. "Come on we have to get as many out before she wakes up." Shade nodded and flew off to help as many out as possible, while she does that I'll unlock the dragons here. He started with the SkyWing he saw earlier.

"Hi there. What's you're name." Current asked her.

"Flare." She said.

"Alright Flare, why were you put here? You don't look any different from other SkyWings."

She smiled "I don't know really, I might have been trespassing or something."

"SkyWings are Burn's ally, you obviously look different from others." He unlocked the last chain. "Okay, get out as fast as you can. I'll meet you outside." Before Current pulled away, Flare pecked him on the cheek. "Thank you," She said before fleeing.

He flew to Terra to unchain him. As he was doing it he heard heavy breathing.

"Um Terra? Is that you who's breathing?" He asked hoping it was Terra. "No. I would never sound like I'm breathing heavily and angry at the same time. Also there's a big SandWing behind you looking as if she wants to kill you."

Current sighed as he unlocked the last chain. "Yeah I know. You don't need to remind me. Now run."

As he ran off Current turned to look Burn straight in the eyes, thought he was afraid her glare would knock him over, petrified. "Okay, okay. I didn't mean any trouble Miss Scary. I thought you were a guard."

"It's Burn you dolt."

Current smiled and nodded, although his face didn't match the fear he was feeling right now, "oh I know. But your a terrifying... Uh... Muscular, princess so I'm just going to say Miss Scary."

To his surprise, Burn laughed, Maybe I just made her happy by cowering in fear, I'm kind of a ladies man aren't I? He thought, but as soon as he said that she lunged at him, but why isn't she using her tail?

He couldn't think of where to move, so he just sat there waiting for the sweet embrace of death. She pinned him down but didn't do anything. Why hasn't she killed me yet? I knocked her out, that sounds like something she would kill me for.

Suddenly her angry look turned into more of a smile.

Oh moons... I think I know what my torture is.
