     Diamondback glided above the Kingdom Of Sand, her brown, camel leather satchel weighing down her left side. She slowly glided down to land on the soft sand. But before she could readjust her bag, a SandWing leapt from a dune and pinned the smaller messenger with ease. She twisted but he stomped down on her wings. She struggled and he tore her wing membrane with long lacerations.
     "What's going on!?" Diamondback yelled at him, in confusion and pain.
     "The queen has use of the letters you are transporting, either hand them over in a nice agreement or die." He growled menacingly. He raised his tail barb over his head; it had a small black symbol on the side of it. Another SandWing  appeared out of another dune and grabbed the satchel from around her neck, tearing through the leather strap easily with his sharp, black claws. The last thing she saw was the brown material whizzing toward the side of her head.
