Dragons In Havoc

Chapter twenty-four (Stormgrazer)

Stormgrazer woke up, his eyes hurt. Stormgrazer sat up and saw that he was laying on Keo and Blackstar. Stormgrazer shook his head, embarrassed. Where is Eclipse? He thought, looking around. That's when he saw the exit, it was covered and filled in with huge Ice blocks, it looked like they fell. He ran over and pushed the ice cold blocks, seeing if one of them was loose.

All of them seemed to be melted together, impossible to break without fire. She didn't... Stormgrazer looked around. Come on, come on. He thought. Then he saw her, laying in the corner murmuring about some amazing new fruit that she had found in the Rainwing forest, sleeping peacefully like they were in the Rainwing kingdom, with nothing to fear. Stormgrazer raced over to her and shook her wildly.

"WAKE UP, WAKE UP!!!" He told her. She opened her eyes and looked at him, shocked.

"What's up?" She asked, yawning. Stormgrazer glared at her.

"D-DON'T YOU DARE WHAT'S U-UP ME!" He said, shaking her more. He dropped her and pointed to the exit, or what was left of it anyway. "YOU DID THIS, DIDN'T YOU?" He said. She looked at him with full innocence in her glittering green eyes.

"Did what?" She said, she looked at the fallen exit and rushed over to it. "Oh no!" She said, she turned to him with innocence in her eyes. But farther in the deep green eyes there was humor. He glared at her, she put her claws up in defence.

"Ok, ok.. Maybe I did it, but look, now Darkstalker can't get to us anymore!" Apocalypse said, she had smoke rising slowly up her snout. She traced the wall, and patted it. She turned to Stormgrazer, showing that she was smiling. It was a creepy smile, nothing like Apocalypse's. She had a deep evil in her eyes, her eyes had a tint of red in her pupils. Stormgrazer backed up to Blackstar and Eternity.

Protecting them.

Stormgrazer could hear Eternity's and Blackstar's breaths, they were steady. Apocalypse grinned and sat, she had more smoke curling up from her snout, making Stormgrazer cough. Apocalypse laughed, it was a dark, raspy laugh that filled the whole room.

"W-W-What? Why is Apocalypse acting weird?" Eternity said. Stormgrazer could feel Eternity's claw wrapping around Stormgrazer's tail. Apocalypse stopped laughing and laid her beady eyes onto Eternity, she held out her claw.

"Don't worry, I'm here," She said with a voice as dry as chalk and as dark as a shadow. "Stormgrazer is possessed, get away from him!" Stormgrazer felt Eternity's claw leave is tail. Stormgrazer panicked.

"Eternity! No!" Stormgrazer shouted, for some reason Stormgrazer felt betrayed that Eternity trusted Apocalypse more than Stormgrazer.

This wasn't mentioned in the prophecy. Apocalypse turned to Eternity, she made a real good impression of sadness.

"Quick! Let's go to the others!" Apocalypse said. Eternity looked at Stormgrazer, but there was no fear. Stormgrazer saw Apocalypse's smokey tail reach for Eternity. Eternity flinched, Stormgrazer realised that Eclipse or Halo didn't enchant him. Stormgrazer could feel his heart pounding, he saw her tail reach closer and closer. Just when it was going to touch him, Eternity whipped to the side, sidestepping. Apocalypse growled.

"You understand that I'm the only fire breather here right?" She said.

"Yes, and Firescales." Said Eternity, he kept distance from her hotter-than-fire-scales. Apocalypse laughed, this time is seemed the laugh was disoriented.

"Well, too bad for you, you can't get out, and the others want to believe you'll come for backup, so too bad for you, you will never, ever, ever see them again." She stretched out her wings and flew up towards a wall, she glowed brightly, and hotly, and bust through the wall, she turned around and melt the wall. "Bye now!" She twisted into the air, Stormgrazer pressed on the spot she flew through, it was melted, no way out.

"My only friend here is queen Halo and Blackstar." Eternity whimpered, tears welling up in his eyes. "And they would never count on me for anything except for..." He stopped, thinking of what he would be useful for.

There surely has to be some way to cheer this dragonet up.Oh, how I wish I was more than a mind reader. I wish I was a seer or animus. "You're my friend," said Stormgrazer from the other side of the icey room.

"And possessed."Eternity finished. Stormgrazer paused, remembering those dreadful lies his winglet member had told his friend. I lest forget my winglet when there were no conflicts.
