=The Path of a Butterfly=
----This fanfic is about my sona, Butterfly, and her backstory. For most of the story, she is referred to as Caterpillar (or Cat) because she has not changed her name yet.
TW: Death
====Summary:====
A young SilkWing-RainWing hybrid named Caterpillar is about to have her Metamorphosis. It will be the best day of her life! She'll get her wings and her silk, and she'll live happily ever after... right?
After an incident with her silk that ended in her aunt Lilac's death, her family shuns her, not caring about her to the point where she starts to think that they wouldn't care if she ran away... But that isn't the worst thing that happens. Once the news is out that a young hybrid "murdered" a Silkwing... Caterpillar is now a wanted criminal. 
Using the slight color changing from her RainWing side, she manages to slip past the guards unnoticed. She plans to run away- across the ocean. To a new continent. A new home... A new name, and with it, a new life.
This story will bring you through the hives, across an ocean, and onto a new continent filled with unfamiliar dragons. So get ready, you're in for a long journey.

== Prologue ==
====-From the Perspective of Agrippa-====
----
Wind ruffled her wings, chilling her as she stared out of the hives. She was on a ledge overlooking the savanna- and the wonders beyond it. Am I really going to do this? What if the HiveWings see me? What if I get caught? She quickly looked around, checking for the hundredth time that no one else was there.
Taking in a deep breath, she tried to reassure herself. It's going to be fine. No one is around... no one will see my brown and gold scales against the savanna. I'll blend in. Besides, I'll only be gone for a day. I just want to explore...
Agrippa had always been curious as to what was beyond Yellowjacket Hive. From up here, she could see the cliffs that dropped away to the sea, and then the ocean. The endless ocean... that might not be endless. The Distant Kingdoms might be out there, after all. There could be new dragons, new wildlife, new tribes... new everything.
And right now, Agrippa needed something new.
She looked out over Pantala. Looking back, she could see other hives in the distance. I'll just explore until I get to the cliffs, then I'll come back. She promised herself.
Looking around to check no one was there once again, she took in a deep breath, spread her wings, and soared down from the Hive.
~-~-~-~
This had been Agrippa's sixth time sneaking out and flying to see the ocean. It was always wonderful, taking in the endless(or not, she didn't know for sure) blue waves, and feeling the salty, cool air on her scales. Never once had she been caught, nor had she seen any other dragons down by the shore. 
So, she sat there for a couple of minutes, just watching the waves crash down on the beach, over and over. The repetitiveness calmed her, as it always did when she came down here. Sighing, she looked out across the water when she heard shuffling talonsteps of a dragon coming towards her.
No! I'm caught! What do I do? The HiveWings will send me to Misbehavior's Way! Oh, I knew this was a bad idea, I never should have come...
She turned to face the approaching dragon, coming up with a million different excuses in her head as to why she was here. But, when she saw the dragon, the excuses immediately vanished. He was a brilliant pink, mixed with swirls of blue and purple. There was a ruffle-looking-thingy sticking out from either sides of his head, and his eyes were blue.
She stared at him, and it seemed like the colors on him were changing. One moment his scales were bright, then they dulled, and finally settled on a pale greenish white color. 
How did he change colors? What is that ruffle thing? What tribe is that?! She peered at him closely trying to figure out what tribe he was. Initially she thought he was a SilkWing, no HiveWing could have those colors! But, he didn't have any antenna, and... he only had two wings!
She gasped aloud. The only tribe that had two wings were the LeafWings! He couldn't be a LeafWing, could he? No, LeafWing had leaf-shaped wings, and they were normally green. They couldn't be pink, and she didn't think they had ruffles on the sides of their heads. Then again, she hadn't ever seen a LeafWing before, so she couldn't be sure he wasn't one.
"Are you alright?" The strange dragon asked.
The question caught Agrippa off guard before she realized that she had been staring at him for a few minutes. 
"Oh- uhm- yes, I'm, uh, fine. What- uhm, sorry, who are you?"
His scales flashed a light pink before he answered. "I'm Gecko,"
"And, uhm, what tribe are you?"
"RainWing, duh," Gecko said, tilting his head to the side as if he was confused that she couldn't tell what tribe he was(and that it was very obvious that he was a RainWing, whatever that is.) "We're, like, the most recognizable tribe on Pyrrhia! Wait, we are on Pyrrhia, right?"
Agrippa stared at him, her jaws wide open in disbelief. "No. We- We're on Pantala. How did you not know that? Unless..." She gasped. "You're from the Distant Kingdoms! It exists?! Oh my Clearsight the Distant Kingdoms exist!"
~-~-~-~
Agrippa had been sneaking out to meet Gecko for about 5 weeks now. She had come every day(except for some days when she couldn't). It was so sad that he couldn't come back to Yellowjacket Hive with her, because the HiveWings would probably send him(and her) to jail, and she'd rather see him a little than not at all.
So, when she could spare enough time, she flew down to the shore and to the cave that he lived in. She always brought him food, because where are you going to get fruit out in the savanna? And even if he could, the HiveWings would likely spot him, and then he'd go to jail.
Every time she'd gone to see him, his scales erupted in color, though she didn't know what it meant. They were dull light grey-blue one moment, then bright yellow and pink the next. He was quite handsome, really, and very funny. Whenever she was with him, it felt time went too quickly, and then she had to go again. She never got to stay with him for long.
So, she started going at night. Every other night (because she had to get at least some sleep) she'd sneak out of the hive and go down to the shore and meet up with him. They'd play games, they'd laugh, they'd eat, and, if you hadn't already guessed, they'd fallen in love.
~-~-~-~
This was a special day. Or, well, night. Agrippa was going out to see Gecko, but this time she had a surprise for him. As she soared down to his cave, her mind was tumbling over the excitement. Her whole face was lit up. She was going to tell him! She was going to tell him that she was with egg!
She entered the cave, looking around to find him. Sometimes he'd hid when she first came in, as a game, so she went to go find him. "Gecko! Where are you?" She laughed, searching the cave. "I have a surprise for you!"
She looked around again. She hadn't found him. "Gecko?" Her voice was full of concern now. She had looked everywhere in the small cave, but she hadn't found him. Usually by now he would've come out to greet her, laughing and telling a joke. 
She looked around again. Gecko had to be here! Where else could he have gone? "Gecko?" She called again, but doubt clouded her mind. He wasn't here. He'd gone somewhere else. Or, maybe, was forced to go somewhere else. 
She gasped, dropping the bag full of food that she always brought. Gecko had been found by the HiveWings! He was in prison now, and she'd never see him

again.
But, worst of all, he'd never know that he was going to be a father.

== Chapter 1 ==
-From the perspective of Caterpillar-
----Cat's life was a mess.
First of all, she was basically a prisoner. She could never leave the house. Ever.
Second, she'd only ever seen 3 dragons in her life. Yep, count 'em, three. Her mom, her sister, and her aunt.
How fun.
Caterpillar knew it was for a good reason but still. She was so bored, though she guessed it would be better than jail.
Because if anyone else saw her, that's where she'd go.
And it wasn't even Cat's fault! Just because she was a hybrid, any HiveWing she'd meet would throw her right in jail.
Cat sighed, leaning against the window in her room. Rain pattered against the glass, water droplets racing to the bottom of the window. Her wrists had been aching all morning, and she didn't know what to do about it. They looked oddly dark, too. Well, darker than the normal gold-brown color of her scales.
Oh! She realized with a start. It's my sixth hatching day today! I'm going to go into my cocoon today.
Cat glanced at her wrists. So that's why they'd been hurting. She was about to go through metamorphosis! Ha- She'd completely forgotten about it. How funny. As she was wondering if Mother or Gold-drop had remembered that it was her metamorphosis day, she heard a knock on her bedroom door.
She turned to the door. "Who is it?" She asked.
Without answering, the door opened, and a dragon came through it. She was about a year younger than Cat, but her scales were the same colors, and in splotches. A patch of gold here, a splotch of cream there. Quite beautiful. And quite a fitting name, too.
Gold-drop, Cat's half-sister, ran across the room to where Cat was sitting, and beamed up at her.
"Happy hatching day!" Gold sang loudly, then perhaps remembering we had neighbors and thin walls, quieted her voice and said, "Happy sixth hatching day! You're going to have your wings soon! That must be so cool!"
