A Fight for Freedom

Chapter three

Cloudy! Come back! Risingtide thought. Cloudy was his friend, but he couldn't wait for someone this time, he had to go fight, like what Rea said.

"Great, it's your fault!" Omnia said rolling her eyes.

"I swear, I know Cloudy more than you do, I've been her friend since she was born!" Rea said tears falling from her sky blue eyes.

"Stop fighting guys. We have to get Cloudy back." Risingtide walked over to them. His wet claws freezing. The dark teal dragon then sat beside Onmia, but not as close as he did with Rea.

"Oh yeah! Just because my mom could fly all the way over here with my egg, means us kids, can fly all the way over to Pantala and find Cloudy, and not get tried and fall into the ocean, sink, drown, die. Bet we can do it!" Rea said grumpily, still crying.

"I know HiveWings can be mind controlled, well some of them... ugh, those HiveWings.." Risingtide said, walking towards where Cloudy last sat. He felt tears coming down his face. Cloudy was one of his friends, not an enemy, like has dad, he still didn't feel safe.

"HiveWings aren't that bad. I'm part of one." said Omnia in a gloomy voice.

"They aren't, unless they attack your home and KILL ALL YOUR LOVED ONES AND FRIENDS 50 YEARS AGO IN THE TREE WARS!" Rea was glaring at Omnia right that second, for a long moment really, she turned away then looking at Risingtide.

"I'm all the hybrids guys, that's why I'm here, I was hoping you guys were going to help me find my parents, but to be honest, Rea is a lot better than I though she was going to be. I thought she was going to be like 'oh dear! honey! Let me help you!' turns out your the dangerous one. Like me." Omnia said looking back at Rea with a grin, witch Risingtide was a little jealous when Rea smiled back at her, blushing.

"I thought you were the one begging us to help, but looks like your just like me." Rea said and brushed her wing on Omnia's. Risingtide was even more jealous.

Why am I feeling this? Maybe because I know almost nothing about Omnia, and everything about Rea? And there just, friends? Risingtide thought sadly. He liked Rea, as a friend, or more like a best friend, he knew she needed to find her own love like her did, but Rea and Omnia didn't seem right to him.

"You guys are just friends right?" Risingtide manged to get out. 

"Yeeeeeeeeeesh, we are just friends. Not love-birds." Omnia answer stepping away from Rea, as Rea stayed in her place, which made Risingtide a lot happier.

"Why do you care?" Rea asked looking right at him with those non-teary eyes.

"I-I-I, just am happy for you guys to be friends, you were just fighting, and now..."

"We're friends, we get it!" Rea said to Risingtide, which he jumped. "I get that I am your best friend, but you need to be confident without me. I'm not going to be always there for you, like Cloudy, that might happen. It's best if we stop talking about love. Until one of us finds one." Rea said calmly, putting one talon on his shoulder.

"I get it, I don't have anyone to love, my sister though is one to love." Risingtide was relieved to hear 'not talk about love' part, and not 'we can't be friends anymore' part.

"We need to go to Pantala and safe Cloudy you know!" Omnia said pointing at the direction the HiveWings went.

"We will, but we need to think how to get there, we have no idea where there taking Cloudy." Risingtide said stating the obvious, "We need to help you first though. Then think of a way to get Cloudy back."

"I'd rather go to Cloud first." Rea said standing next to Omnia. "But we should go plan it out first, HiveWings always go for the flamesilks, Cloudy did have a SilkWing mother who was a flamesilk, that maybe why." Rea shrugged.

"Hm, alright, let's plan it out." Omnia said stepping in front of Risingtide.

"Ok, follow me." Risingtide said flicking his tail to a cave, tiny enough to fit three full grown dragons. 

I'm finally going to help someone, that's not a SeaWing. And... I'm going to help Rea and Cloudy. But Omnia is more important first, new friend, help her first. I bet Cloudy will be fine anyways.
