The Fool

__TOC__
Your name is a triangle.
==Prologue==
The sun was setting over the Hives of Pantala. Dragons all over were coming home to their families from work, and the nobles were all preparing for Lady Yellowjacket's grand gala. It was the night of the Jade Comet. Every few hundred years, the Jade Comet passed by, and was said to bring plentiful rain and crops.
Well, Yellowjacket will never live to see it. Termite thought, as she prepared for the gala. Termite belonged to a wealthy family of nobles which sought to conquer the Hives. They all seemed completely fine, no different from the other HiveWings. But they were not. They were going to kill off the Queens, one by one, until they got what they deserved.
What I deserve. Termite thought, dreaming of how much wealthier she would be once she was royal. She finished painting her claws and horns, and walked out of her lavish room. It was time.
"Hello, are you enjoying the party, Miss Termite?" A SilkWing servant asked. "Oh yes, it's just wonderful!" Termite replied with false sweetness. "Say, I'm just starving, could you get me a platter of sugar wasps?" Termite said, pointing at the buffet across the room. "Of course, ma'am." The SilkWing replied, walking to the buffet.
Termite lost them in the crowd of dragons, but that was exactly what she wanted. "Finally, they're gone..." She mumbled, walking a bit closer to Yellowjacket. She was sitting on a marble throne, and her SilkWing "art" was sitting right next to her. The guards would be easy to take out with Termite's poisonous tail darts, but she was worried about the SilkWing. There were rumors that the SilkWing doubled as a backup guard, and was extremely protective of Yellowjacket. 
Well, she's only a SilkWing. Those rumors can't be true, SilkWings are passive and calm, they don't even have any natural weapons. Termite thought, as she sat in the shadows, thinking of her plan.
She crouched down to the ground and lined up her tail darts with one of the guards. Steady, steady... NOW! she shot one of the guards in the neck, and then the other one, and then the rest, all falling to the ground and dropping their weapons. The crowd gasped and looked around, some fleeing the gala. Termite slid across the floor and out of the shadows, stopping in front of Yellowjacket. She elegantly walked up the stairs, and said only eight words.
She was surprised to be hit in the side with a spear. Termite roared in pain, and was knocked over by none other than the SilkWing.
"So you're an assassin? A murderer? Well, I don't care. I won't let this happen again." The SilkWing said, stomping on Termite's tail darts and shattering them. Termite was looking straight at the point of a spear.
"Well, it looks like the murderer has become the murdered. Kill me. Just do it. I trust my dragonets to follow in my talonsteps." Termite said.
"Goodbye, termite." The SilkWing said.
And then, Termite was gone.

Your heart is a square.
==Chapter 1==
"What's going on?" "It's the middle of the night..." "Can I go back to sleep?" The dragonets of the Termite family said, as they were dragged out of their rooms and into the family hatchery.
"QUIET. Your sibling is hatching, and you will NOT go back to your rooms until they have hatched. Is that clear?" Carpenter hissed.
"Yes, Carpenter." The dragonets said, some yawning, as they reached the hatchery doors.
Carpenter pushed open the elaborately carved doors to reveal an egg in the center of the hatchery, cracks across it's beautiful teal surface. An orange dragon with tiger stripes was sitting next to it.
"Antlion!" Carpenter yelled. "Has the egg made any more progress?" She asked gently.
"A bit. It should hatch any moment now." Antlion replied, looking at the egg with no expression.
"Wonderful! Another assassin to add to the family." Carpenter said happily.
Everyone had eyes on the egg as it rocked from side to side, ready to hatch. It fell on it's side and cracked open the eggshell all the way. Everyone gasped, and Carpenter had a huge smile on her face.
The dragon crawled out of the egg and onto the floor. It had beautiful teal scales, a sky blue underbelly, and deep purple wings. The family marveled at the dragon.
When the dragon looked at them and roared, Carpenter's face turned into a disgusted sneer.
The dragon roared, and it had spikes that flared up all over it. Every scale on their body had a spike.
"What. Is. THAT?!"
I love to see you.
==Chapter 2==
Ten years later
Tarantula roared, and left a large scar on Centipede's snout. Tarantula rolled out of the way as one of Centipede's poison tail darts flew toward her wing. "You'll have to try harder than that!" she hissed, stinging Centipede's front leg. 
"Hey! I thought we said no stinging allowed!" Centipede complained. "YOU tried to hit me with a poison dart! Besides, anything goes in mother's fighting class!" Tarantula argued, glaring at Centipede with her horrifying, plain white eyes.
"That being said, you lose!" Tarantula grinned, giving her sisters Orbweaver and Goldenorb the signal to sting Centipede. Centipede flopped onto the ground, knocked out.
Warrior Wasp watched her siblings fight in the courtyard, sitting on the wall. She took out her guitar and started playing a song, occassionally getting the wrong chord.
Carpenter laughed as Centipede got knocked out. "WONDERFUL WORK, GIRLS! As for Centipede, I'm disappointed. Let him serve as a reminder to what happens when you hesitate for ONE SECOND in a battle." she said, snapping her claws and ordering the servants to take Centipede to his room.
Carpenter felt something was off. She counted out the number of dragons fighting in the courtyard. "1... 2.. 4.. 6.. 7. There should be eight." she muttered, looking around for Warrior Wasp.
When she saw her, she angrily marched over and snatched the guitar out of Warrior Wasp's talons. "HEY!" Warrior exclaimed. "STOP MAKING THAT AWFUL NOISE AND GO FIGHT WITH YOUR SIBLINGS!" Carpenter argued.
"But I don't like fighting!" Warrior said, crossing her arms. "WELL, YOU SHOULD! It should come easily to you anyways, you're practically a walking weapon! This- this- thing is making you WEAK!" Carpenter said, looking at the guitar.
"Ugh. It's called a guitar and it is NOT making me weak!! Just face it mom, I am NEVER going to be an assassin like you!!" Warrior Wasp said.
"How DARE you disrespect your family that way!! You will NOT be getting this back until you've proven yourself to be a worthy opponent!!" Carpenter said, walking away with Warrior Wasp's guitar.
"GAH! I can't do ANYTHING to make you think I'm a worthy opponent!" Warrior exclaimed, Carpenter ignoring her. 
"Hey, what's going on?" Warrior's closest sister, Lacewing, asked. She landed on the wall next to Warrior.
"Mother took away my guitar again, and now she's trying to force me to fight." Warrior grumbled.
"Ooooof course she did. Well, I brought you something from the Glitterbazaar." Lacewing said calmly, handing Warrior a wrapped box.
Warrior took it and opened it, delighted by what she saw. It was a guide to the history and Hives of Pantala, along with a bag of sugar wasps and a hand-made wasp earring.
"Oh, thank you!! This was just what I needed today." Warrior Wasp said, putting on the earring.
"It's no problem!! I'm glad you like them! I have to go again, but I'll see you in a while when I'm done with this mission! Don't worry, I'll be back before you know it." Lacewing said, waving goodbye and lifting into the air.
Way over there.
==Chapter 3==
Warrior Wasp looked out her bedroom window, her head on the windowsill, watching the rain. The family had cut training early due to the rain, and this made Warrior happy.
Come on Lacewing, come back! You have to help me out here! She thought, thinking of the glares and angry looks she had gotten at dinner. She got up and walked over to her bed, eating some of the sugar wasps.
Warrior sat down and started reading the book that her sister had gotten her, occasionally looking out the window to see if she was there.
Soon, she heard a knock at the door and went to go see who it was. It was Lily, the main SilkWing servant, with a message. "What is it Lily? IS IT A LETTER FROM LACEWING?" Warrior Wasp said, excited.
"Um, no, I'm afraid not. Your parents would like to speak with you sometime this week." Lily said.
"Ugh, what did I do this time?" She said to herself.
