Fire and No Fire

= Fire and No Fire =
== Chapter One ==
Two dragonets, one tan and one orange, roamed around. Kestrel had to keep a close eye on them. If her daughter jumped onto the other one, who knows if he'd live. Kestrel had looked away for one second, and when she looked back she launched up. As the lighter dragonet got ready to pounce, she slammed her talon in the way. This caused him to jump face-first into her arm. When the confused dragonets looked up at her, she shook her head. They looked back at each other and frowned. I'd rather have you sad and whining than jumping onto Peril and dead, Sky. Kestrel thought to herself. She slid Sky further from his sister, Peril. After a few hours of watching her dragonets, Kestrel had then heard flapping in the distance. Then, her eyes widened with horror as a red dragon landed.
"Kestrel," Her voice hissed, slithering as if a snake, "I and your dragonets meet at last. Orders have changed, simply, you kill one of your dragonets and the other gets to live and stay home." She offered. Kestrel didn't want to accept, but she had to. It was the only way she'd stay a soldier, the only way her other child would be safe.
"Fine." Her stern voice accepted.
"Good. Now, I'll be back by noon." She signaled her guards, and they all flew away. Kestrel had four hours left, though.
"Mother?" Peril asked, she waddled over to Kestrel's side. "What's going on? Why did those big red dragons come here?" She requested knowledge.
"No reason. False alarm." Kestrel lied, she had to cover the fact she was going to drown Peril's twin brother. "Go play with a daisy in the field or something." She snapped.
"But they keep burning up!" Peril insisted, but Kestrel had already left. Left to get Sky.
"Sky?" She called, and a little pale dragonet flopped in front of her. "Follow me. It's important."
"Okay, mother!" He agreed. Kestrel led him to the river, and grabbed Sky with her talons. "Ma-" His voice stopped as she threw him under the water. He tried to scream but only let bubbles out, and his oxygen ran low. She held him there until the struggling stopped, and she allowed his body to flow with the river. Peril angrily walked to her mother.
"Mom! The daisies keep burning up." She complained, before noticing the pale wing in the river. "Sky? What happened to him?!"
Kestrel lied, she looked down at her talons. "He tripped on a rock and fell into the river. He drowned before I was able to save him." Suddenly, wing flaps caught Kestrel's attention. It was the big red dragon from earlier.
"Well, Kestrel. Did you do it?" She asked.
"Look for yourself, Scarlet." She pointed at the river with her head. "I did it. Now let my dragonet live in peace."
"Oh, so you're the one giving orders?" Scarlet snarled. "Orders have changed, Kestrel."
"To what?" Kestrel demanded.
"Kill that orange dragonet and you'll get to live."
"WHAT?" Kestrel raged. "No. Orders smorders, I am not killing Peril." Peril's eye's widened.
"Kill?" She asked. That was all she got to say before Kestrel grabbed onto her. Kestrel had barely got into the air before she dropped Peril. Kestrel's paws burnt up, and so did a paw mark on her cheek. She saw Scarlet, approaching Peril. This is it. Now both of your dragonets are dead.
== Chapter Two ==
Kestrel whacked a mudwing with her tail. "ROLL RIGHT!" She screeched. "USE YOUR FIRE!" The mudwing struggled,
"Hey! Maybe if we could just do this without all the-" He got cut off mid-sentence when Kestrel stomped on his tail. "YOW! Hey! You said stomping tails was cheating."
"I'm your teacher, nothing I will do counts as cheating."
