Wings of Fire | The Half-Breed Tales

Chapter 8

A/N This is from Sobek's point of view. The picture is Leopard, drawn by my amazing friend, ValociDragon. Thank you so much!

In a shimmering flash of turquoise scales, and a hurricane of beating wings, Leopard flew off, her enormous purple-and-turquoise scales flashing in the bright sunlight. She didn't even look back, and left all of them alone by the cave,

Sobek let out a withering sigh. Great. Now he was stuck with the SeaWing prince. Normally, dragons, in general could never bother him, but somehow this SeaWing could manage to get on his nerves. That was so frustrating.

Sobek glanced at Crimson and Mango, who were huddled together, glancing nervously at Quill, a mischievous smile on both of their faces.

Quill noticed this, and because he obviously couldn't take a joke, glared at both of them. "What?" He demanded, squinting at them.

Crimson stretched out her neck, staring nonchelantly at him, she shrugged. "We know that both you, and Sobek are about to fight any minute now—it's not like Mango or I could stop you."

Quill hissed at Crimson, growling in frustration. "Excuse me?"

Sobek nodded, trying to keep a grin off his face. "You're excused," he said. "And, yeah, Crimson is right, there isn't really a way for them to stop us from—"

Quill glared at him. "Oh yeah?" He challenged. "WELL YOU'RE WRONG, BECAUSE WE WON'T FIGHT—so there!"

"Yes we will," Sobek grinned, trying not to laugh.

"No we won't," Quill huffed.

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"GUYS!" Crimson interrupted, flapping her enormous wings. "You're fighting right now."

Sobek grinned cheekily, winking at Mango and Crimson. "I know, I just wanted to see how long Quill would keep saying No before he noticed what I was doing."

From beside him, Sobek heard Quill make an outraged sound: "HEY!"

"What?" Sobek said, blinking innocently.
