The Sacrifice of the Light

A Dragonet of Destiny

Peril stood awkwardly in front of the entire village. The dragoness came forward and reached to touch her face.

"Searsky don't." A male, probably her mate, spoke. The dragoness, Searsky, pulled back and turned to the male.

"Inferno calm down. I won't burn her." Searsky turned back to Peril. She then realized that others were starting to circle around them. Searsky grazed Peril' s face, everyone gasped. Her eyes widened as she felt the heat from the unfamiliar Skywing. How are there others like me? Peril kept asking herself.

"H-How do you know my n-name?" Peril asked quietly. Searsky smiled and retracted her talons. She stood taller and looked at the rain around them.

"Let's move indoors. We can talk there." The dragoness turned to Inferno. She walked beside him and Inferno raised his wing so he was covering Searsky. Peril awkwardly walked behind them. The clay made huts were well built and warm inside. They passed by the houses and into a great room. Sitting by a table the three dragons sat around it. Searsky spoke first.

"Peril-" But she was interrupted.

"No, who are you and how do you know my name!?" Peril nearly roared. She was fuming. (See what I did there!) Searsky and Inferno looked at each other. Searsky looked back at Peril.

"Kestral isn't your mother. You had no twin in your egg." Peril gaped at them.

"Then how come my egg was too big?" Peril countered.

"That's how all Fire Wing eggs are. They are always big." Inferno explained.

"Well then how is Kestral not my mother?" The image of Clay telling her that Kestral was dead made her eyes brim with tears.

"Kestral stole your egg. You were our daughter. She was your Aunt. Since the Skywing egg was destroyed she took you. But then that rainwing was chosen. But there was no skywing egg. There was no egg in the Skywing kingdom that fit the prophecy. You were the last dragonet from the prophecy. You are one of the Dragonets of Destiny." Searsky spoke with authority.

"We are the true Skywings. Not those red and orange dragons." Inferno said.

After that Peril only saw darkness.
