Scorpion twitched her tail. She could tell Sightless was annoyed, although he wouldn't admit it. She felt bad for him, everyone treated him as if he were just born yesterday. Scar sat by her, pulling her out of though. "Hey," she said after a while. "Hi..." He respond. "Can I talk to you somewhere privet" Scorpion asked. "Yeah.." Scar answered distichously.

She lead him to the cave they slept in the night before. Smoke billowed the air, making her squint. She took a seat by the lake. "What is it" Scar asked with a sigh. "I should tell someone..." She  sighed. "Tell someone? But why?" He protested. "If we wanna track down, and capture Hawk...Then we need more than just two dragons," "But what if they tell someone else? What if your killed?" Scar looked concerned. "I know someone trustworthy..." She ametted. "And whos that?"

Scorpion hesitated. Should she really do this? What if this dragon was untrustworthy...She nodded, she could trust this dragonet...she knew she could. They were litter mates, and have been friends since she was born. After a long pause of silence, she sighed. And stated the name. "Why this dragon?" he asked. "I can.....I can trust this guy...Does anyone trust this dragon already really?" "...I guess not, it looks like they do" "Yeah, but I just think it would be a good choice," Scar paused, then said, "Alright"

"Got it!" Scorpion called as she pulled a mountain lion back to the camp. "Nice catch!" Active commented. Scorpion smiled. "Thanks!" She exclaimed. "I'll get something from the lake" Sightless called, running off before anyone could protest. Scorpion sat down with Active under a tree. Its huge branches stretched out farther than a Skywings wings. Birds sang, and dove in the morning sky. And animals scurry around in lime green bushes.

Scorpion took a bite from the mountain lion leg she picked out. "It's amazing. How life can find its ways." She said, watching amazed at the life around her. Scar nodded. She could sense that Scar wasn't pleased with something. "What's up?" She asked. "Nothing" He was glaring at Fang and Sightless. They were sitting in a small cave, vines over grew the entrance. Making it almost impossible to see them. "I know you like I know my own mind Scar. Something to do with Fang?" "She's just...She dosen see right...Shes on to something...She's gonna turn on use I know it. It's as clear as day." Scorpion sighed. "I'm sure we'll be fine. Are only worry is any other dragons we don't know" She encouraged. "Suuurrree" He sighed. Not taking his snake-like eyes of her. She looked around. That morning, they had moved their "camp" to a different area up north.  It was different here, it didn't seem as calming. Scorpion stretched, and said. "I'm gonna take a walk..." She heaved her self up, and went to the nearby lake. She walked across its shore, so she knew how to get back. Sightless was always with Fang, why did he always have too be? I just wish I could spend time with him once in a while. But that's never gonna happen...I'm to much of a....errr..side character....He will always be out of reach. He'll be on stage, and i'll be behind the scenes, dying to run into the light...
