Over the years, Blisters creation advanced drastically. From the moment she could talk, she was up and reading every scroll Blister had, she couldn't do any physical training yet, Blister didn't want Scorpion to be hurt too soon.

After she turned two, she was training in every way possible, from flying over and under obstacles, to hiding in plain sight, and fighting one on one, she was worked pass her limits everyday, but only had one objective in mind to keep her going. Make Blister proud. Scorpion had become a killing machine. Blisters killing machine.

She did anything and everything she could for Blister. She was the most wanted dragon in the Scorpion Den by the age of four and feared by anyone who came across her.

Tales were told about the ultimate Sand Queen's weapon. Who killed and murdered Blisters enemy's and sisters spies. But all the tales told never linked the dragonet to anyone, no one had a clue who here birth parents were.

She actually looked nothing like Blister, which was a good thing in most cases. Whilst Blister had pale yellow scales with black diamond patterns along her neck and sharp black eyes. Scorpion however had, dusty-brown top scales with a lighter sandy color on the bottom, and had faded brown diamond patterns from her neck to her tail, her eyes were black as well, but seemed less intimidating and observant.

Scorpion was six now, she was able to do almost anything she pleased. Mother had granted her as much freedom as she could possibly want. But as always, business came first.

And right business was more important than freedom.

Scorpion was waiting under the tall pine trees, darkness shadowing her dusty gold scales.
Her black obsidian eyes narrowed into slits and she scanned the pine trees, and night sky.

Over head, the trees branches rustled in the wind.
The loud snapping of twigs was highly noticeable.
Scorpion sighed in annoyance,how loud could he possibly be..?

"S-Scorpion..?" Asked a small timed voice. Scorpion grunted in confirmation.

She didn't bother turning around, it wasn't worth analyzing him. She already knew it was Marlin, a Talons of peace spy, A good one at that too, despite his quiet and pathetic personality he was beyond loyal. He told her about the important information of what was happening with the Talons, like right now.

" We still cannot locate the Dragonets, there was some rumor they left to the Mudwing kingdom."
He said in a hushed voice, "But no Mudwing has seen or noticed anything."

Scorpion sighed, it had been two weeks of this nonstop looking. How hard could it be to find a bunch of multi-colored looking dragonets?

"What about Queen Scarlet?" She said.

Ever since the incident with Queen scarlet they haven't been seen or heard from. Not even a Nightwing could be able to see them in any vision.
It was like they went off the grid, or underground, or she just died.

Scorpion did though have slight respect for them, not being spotted by any dragon in Pryhiia!

"N..no one k-knows." Marlin spoke quietly, as if he was a dragonet getting scolded

She continued to listen as Marlin carried on about the chaos happening in the Talons of Peace and other unimportant things that she had to listen to.
Finally it was time to go their separate ways. Blister would be wanting to know everything.

~~

Once Scorpion finally arrived, Blister was pacing around the stone floors, mumbling under her breath. Her tail and claws twitching ever so often.

She must have heard her come in because Blister whirled her head around at her with narrowed eyes.
"What have you heard..." she hissed through clenched teeth. Too anybody else it would seem like Blister was angry, which was true in some sense , but in general she was more so worried. Having some dragonets decide her fate, poor mother...

"Same as always, the Dragonets have yet to be found no one knows where they are." Scorpion continued, "But a few have said they saw them in the mudWing Kingdom, not really sure if it's true, but we do know they are in that area." She stated trying to help the pacing dragon calm her nerves.

It didn't work, in fact it made her even more uneasy.
She was pacing back and forth again, this time the worry was clear in her actions.

At this point it would be a waste to try to help, Scorpion was basically useless at the moment.
It anger her that all she could do was watch as her mother suffered.

Scorpion was raised to not disappoint, always make your Queen proud was what she was taught. Most the time she was always able to do that, except when it came to the prophecy Dragonets, They just seemed to vanish out of nowhere.

It wasn't until Scorpion heard a flapping sound from outside did she regain her focus. Immediately she became on guard, it could be a Mudwing. After all, Blisters hide out was located in the forest area next to the Mudwing border and Sea which lead to the Seawing kingdom. It wasn't a very scanned area, hidden by dark pine trees, the total opposite of the desert.

Scorpion was on her guard, crouched and ready to attack any second she saw a hint of brown scales.

Blister had also stoped pacing and instead stared at the entrance with those narrow unblinking eyes.
Her and Scorpion's poisonous tail twitching with anticipation.

But fortunately, instead entered a blue-green Seawing. It was Marlin. Once he saw Scorpion and Blister in their fighting stance, he immediately shrank in fear. He must be scared of Queen Blister, most were.

Scorpion relaxed her stance,but still slightly on guard, still disappointed she hadn't noticed Marlin coming sooner.

"Marlin what are you doing here." Blister and Scorpion hissed at the same time.

The scared pathetic dragon gulped and, shifted nervously twiddling his claws.

"I-I was..umm...sent here to inform you that the dragonets of d-destiny are currently with Queen Coral and-"
Before he could finish, Blister was racing out the entrance and into the sky, the top of her poisonous barbed tail coming insanely close to Marlin's snout.

He fell back as Scorpion sprinted passed him following Blister.
It was obvious where she was heading. But it also unwise of her to be not careful.

Soon enough she had reached Blister, staying a wings length apart. She glanced her way to see her mothers narrowed eyes looking straightforward , not able to tell a thing that she was thinking.

Instead, Scorpion focused on flying. A small smirk formed, this was going to be a very interesting journey.

One she would make unforgettable.
