"And we're alone for the day" Jordan groaned, Spitfire flying through the air smoothly.

"Never a good idea to leave you alone" Spitfire replied.

"HEY!!!!" Jordan shorted angrily. "WOAH"

Suddenly, a slightly smaller fire dragon flew up and narrowly missed Spitfire who snarled furiously. Jordan struggled to stay on his back, but both dragon and rider smirked at the younger dragon as he glanced back.

"Game on" Jordan and Spitfire stated at the same time. Spitfire flew after the younger male who flew faster.

They soared over the city, around the palace, and eventually came to the forest outside of the city. The young fire dragon hid in a large tree, looking below for Spitfire.

"Where'd he go?" The young male asked. Then he yelped as Spitfire jumped down on his tail.

"Ha! That was fun" Spitfire laughed, letting the younger dragon go.

"Yeah. Your pretty fast for a fire dragon" Jordan added with a laugh of his own.

"HAHA. My dad mentioned you two! Spitfire and.....?" The young dragon paused.

"Jordan" Spitfire stated.

"I'm Flameburst, call me Flame if you want. My dad, Flint, is the fire dragons leader" the young dragon replied. "Wanna race back to the palace?"

"Sure" Spitfire stated and they launched into the air, flying from the forest. They flew over the city, Jordan noticing similarities between the two fire dragons.

"Yeah and then......" Flameburst trailed off, frozen as they landed. A much larger male fire dragon stalked out of a doorway, Spitfire glancing at Flameburst.

"Flameburst" the older male rumbled unhappily.

"Father" Flameburst greeted quietly.

"Wasting your time with another one of your...... Friends?" Flameburst growled.

"I'm his friend, but I'm not wasting him time so much as you are" Spitfire growled. Jordan nodded.

"How can you call yourself his father, when your so disapproving and cold to your own flesh and blood?" Jordan growled. "My mother was never like this"

"Do you know who your talking too, hatchling?" The larger male growled.

"I'm not a hatchling! My name is Spitfire and Jordan is my human rider!" Spitfire snarled.

"A pitiful excuse for a son" the male growled.

"Pardon?" Spitfire snapped.

"You heard me, Spitfire. Your my son, but now meeting you, I wish your egg had been destroyed" the male snapped. Spitfire snarled and Flameburst moved away.

"CALM DOWN SPITFIRE, LET'S JUST GO!!!" Jordan shouted angrily. Spitfire launched into the air and flew over the city. Spitfire's anger only growing.

"How did I get stuck with a father like that?"
