Wings of Fire - The Last Hope discussion

((I still hate the picture))
Midnight saw a dark mist forming around Pyrrhia.

Cyclone flies up to the platform. They were really only there to be there for Tikki, as they saw the girl as a friend. Sort of, at least.

Tikki landed onto the platform right behind Cyclone, her scales an emotional mess. The princess would be fine, she can handle herself She thought but she knew from the dark mist forming that nobody was going to okay. Tikki's own mood aura shifted into a gloomy and frightened one.

Cyclone stays close to Tikki, and gives her a reassuring look. "Princess?" they call out nervously.

Firefly was no where to be seen. Midnight searched frantically as Coldfire and Solar Eclipse appeared with a Nightwing behind them. "This is Hopewish." Coldfire froze as Midnight ran around. "She knows what's going on... it's a prophecy." he growled as Midnight froze, Midnight peered over the platform. He saw a large dragon, one of a tribe he didn't recognize, carrying Firefly's limp body.

Tikki stood closer to Cyclone. For some reason, she felt more comfortable near them. "Firefly?" She whispered, her voice wavering. She was not as confident as she normally was. This was the more scared, frightened side of her that nobody really got to see.

"With who?" Cyclone wonders. "Cause I'm out. Saved enough people for one day."

"None of you" Hopewish growled as she shook her head. "I've found the tribes, three I actually don't know. But the descriptions fit none of you. None of them are hybrids and none are Seawings."

Tikki glanced at the dragon she didn't notice. Huh that's weird, I know almost all the NightWings She thought to herself, but she didn't think of it long, "Princess!" She gasped, "Is she okay? I mean I know it's a prophecy know but is she going to be okay?" Tikki asked rather quickly.

Hopewish looked at Tikki, "Firefly..." her eyes widened. "The flame of fire..." she muttered to herself. "She'll die if the dragonets can't complete the prophecy! If I can't find them!" she saw Midnight's eyes widen and he flew after the dragon who held Firefly.

Cyclone pales. "Well, who are they? We need them to complete it as soon as possible!"

Tikki turned a rainbow of colors before snapping, "You are telling me, that my princess might die!" She said with a higher voice. She tried to calm down but it wasn't helping, "DO something. She can not die! Whoever these stupid dragonets are, they better complete this stupid thing or else I will murder each and ever single one of you" Tikki said glaring before sending Firefly's body a worried look.

Hopewish took a step back and Coldfire growled "How could she possibly know? She got the prophecy only moments ago!" "Momentia..." Hopewish muttered.
((Paradise enters, she heard the scream))

Paradise rushes in. "AWAKE! I'm awake? Yes, I'm awake! Where's the- oh dear," she stops as she notices the princess. "OKAY, WHO DID THIS? GET READY FOR A BEATDOWN!" The pounce around, snarling, her spunk showing

Tikki was about to go into another rant but suddenly, another dragon lands on the platform. She, after seeing it's somebody she knows, gives Paradise a slight smile. Before remembering Firefly.

"You!" Hopewish jumped at the Rainwing. "You're the Rainwing.." she realized as she gazed at the Rainwing's colorful scales.

"What?" she asks, confused

Her scales shift to brown and light green

"From the prophecy!" Hopewish growls.

"Slow down! What prophecy!" she demands.

"After the sight of light has gone,
A darkness far more powerful has begun.
Only few may save us,
Only few may have it all.

One who flys among the stars, who knows what shall come,
One who speeds through stormy weather, fire in their talons,
One who flees to the heather, the color of melons,
One who's breath is cold as ice, but who's heart is warm as can be,
One who is dark as earth, who's scales are stronger than fire,
One who's soft strings are made of fire, who flies below the hives,
One who stings, who's scales are like honey,
One who speaks to those most don't hear,

Darkness will engulf the world, unless this group may lead into,
The flame of fire continues to shrink, unless they can break through"
Hopewish shook. "You're the 'One who flees to the heather, the color of melons,'"

She looks at her scales. "I guess I am "

"The 'One who speeds through stormy weather, fire in their talons,' I'm guessing is a Skywing, a firescales. 'One who's breath is cold as ice, but who's heart is warm as can be,' is clearly an Icewing who isn't a stuck up pile of polar bear dung. 'One who is dark as earth, who's scales are stronger than fire,' is probably a Mudwing. It's the 'One who's soft strings are made of fire, who flies below the hives,' 'One who stings, who's scales are like honey,' 'One who speaks to those most don't hear,' ones that I don't get..." Hopewish sighed.

Paradise sighs. "I don't know why I'm even in the prophecy. I'! useless."

"From what I've studied, I think the Rainwing is going to be a distraction." she said as Coldfire rolled his eyes and Solar Eclipse winced.

"All I'm good for," she mumbles then smilesm

((Ack-- I'm so lazy, I'm doing homework AND this -.-))
"It takes a lot of bravery to be a distraction. Trust me, I'd know, only the cowards are the ones who choose to do the work. Distractions take the risk of being caught, mean while the others just sneak around!" Solar Eclipse growled. Coldfire chuckled softly at Solar's remark.

Tikki, after hearing the prophecy, froze in place. She knew about the old one but this one...was different somehow. Her scales flared brown, teal, and blue-violet, "So, we know Paradise is in it. But do we know any others?" While talking, she was surprisingly calm.

Paradise sees a fruit, her favorite in fact. She bounds off to a tree and grabs it, snacking hungrily.

Tikki rolls her eyes at Paradise with a slight smile. That kind of fruit, the one that she just got, was pretty good. One of the best in the forest. She sits down quietly on the ground with her pale wings around herself.

"No, Coldfire and Solar Eclipse came over before I could figure out any other dragons.." Hopewish looked at her friends.

Tikki nodded her head, "Okay that's a start" She says with a slight face, she was thinking about different season of scenarios. "We'll need to find the others, to complete it obviously. So, we have an idea of what tribes their in. But I have no idea what those last three are"

Coldfire looked at his talons. "I may have an idea of where they live, if we see them maybe that'd help?"

Tikki's scales turned multiple colors as she nodded her head, "I think that would help us. You said you had an idea? Where would these dragons live?" She aske Coldfire.

Midnight flew back onto the platform, his whole body trembling, he kept his eyes closed tightly mumbling something silently to himself. Coldfire looked up, and put his talons on the platform and Pyrrhia and two other islands appeared on it.

Tikki stared at the image, her wings flared. "Where is that, I mean I know one is our island but what are the others?" She asked with a hint of cautiousness. She wasn't use to new things that she couldn't learn through a scroll. And this was definitely new.

"Pantala, and Momentia. That thing that stole Firefly is from Momentia. All dragons there are ruled by the Wolfwing queen, Queen Lilac. She allows the Cavewings to have a queen who she controls. And the other tribe, I can't figure out what it is, but it take the appearance of the Wolfwings and Cavewings, there are even some here in Pyrrhia, they take on the appearance of other tribes. Pantala is where you'll find the Hivewings, Leafwings, and the Silkwings." he said, almost as if this were rehearsed.

Tikki frowned, trying to take in this new information, "So" She started slowly, "There are way more tribes then we thought? ANd they have a Queen? What about the others, like the Hive dragons and stuff. Do they have Queens too?" She asked. She seemed to have a hard time understanding this.

"The Hivewings and Silkwings live in the same places and share the Hivewing Queen, Leafwings are secretly living in the Poison Jungle, here" he pointed to a dense jungle area, "They have their own queen"

"So, SilkWings and HiveWings are allied together and LeafWings have their own Queen?" Tikki said. Mostly to herself, so that she'd understand it more. It was a large thought to place on her but she somehow understood it, she nodded after a second. "That makes sense. Well it doesn't but I understand it now. I think" Tikki says.

"Silkwings are the Hives' slaves." Coldfire growled. (he's acting like he's a Silkwing, bRo yOUR a cRazY AnimUs KilLEr-- that just so happens to feel a connection to all tribes)

"wElL, How am I suppose to know that! You should have worded it better" Tikki says with a huff. "I don't know these things. I didn't even know there were more tribes! It sucks for them to be slaves, it does. But why don't they just save themselves? And escape the HiveWings?" She says with a questioning hint in her voice.

Coldfire stood. "If it was that easy don't you think they'd have already escaped?" he pushed his muzzle in her face and glared into her eyes.

Tikki stepped a few feet away from Coldfire, "No. If it was easy, they should be suspicious. But in the case that it's hard, then they should get the LeafWings on their side. Two tribes is normally stronger then one" She said with a glare.

"The Leafwings live in secret, I said that already! The Hivewings and Silkwings think they're extinct!" Coldfire whipped around and dove off of the platform in a rage. Solar Eclipse dived after him. "He's going to end up getting his face clawed off one of these days..." Hopewish mumbled half to herself.

"Blah, whatever, doesn't anybody realize there is some piece of land that nobody goings in or out of?" Tikki says with a slight snarl. She shakes her head after both Solar Eclipse and Coldfire flew away, she answered Hopewish, even though she doubted she was talking to her, "And I'm going to be the one doing the clawing. He's acting like I really am some dumb RainWing"

Cyclone stays close to Tikki, wanting yo claw at Coldfire for talking to her that way.

Hopewish rolled her eyes. "I was talking about Solar Eclipse, no one can hurt Coldfire. He's an animus. Solar Eclipse always follows Coldfire when he's mad or throwing a fit... Coldfire always seems to be calmed by him but one day he'll snap..." she lowered her head. Fearing for that day.

"I don't care if it's a fit, he had no right to talk to Tikki like that!" they snarl.
