Eye of the storm

Prologue Part 1: Stormwatcher’s POV
Storm Watcher hurried into the throne room with her egg. It was his hatching day and he might have the strongest power her tribe has seen in years. She reached the throne room and quickly threw herself into a bow. “Your Majesty, my egg is hatching.” She showed the queen the small cracks in the silver egg. “Good, and you are sure?” she asked, her eyes sparkling with authority. “Perfectly sure, look at the color.” the queen inspected the egg and nodded in approval. “Very well, now go watch it hatch so you can confirm.” “Yes, Queen Thunderbolt.” Storm walked into the hatchery. It was pouring outside and long streaks of lightning were flashing in the sky.
*In british voice* A few hours later
  Maybe I was wrong? She thought. The Queen will not be pleased. Suddenly, she heard a thunderous crack. She looked at her egg, it had shattered, the egg a shiny silver like a broken moon. Soon enough a small silvery head had popped out from the cracked ruins of the egg. “Urk?” it said. “Hello little dragon.” she said. “I will name you Thunderstorm, yes that is fitting” She smiled and the dragonet flapped its wings, as if it understood and liked the name she had chosen. It was still storming outside, and the dragonet turned around with sharp blue eyes. It walked over to the window in the hatchery, as if drawn to the lightning constantly flashing in the sky. Suddenly, to Storm Watcher’s amazement, the dragonet raised his talons and a huge gust of wind slammed through the window and a spiral shaped tornado started to form. “Queen Thunderbolt, come quick!” she screamed in excitement although she didn’t mean to sound like a little dragonet. “Yes?” she said, obviously annoyed with Storm. “Look.” A smile spread across the queen’s face. “Well, we were right, weren’t we Storm?”
A little after the hatching of Thunderstorm…
Prologue Part 2: Queen Thunderbolt’s POV
“C’mon you weakling, fight me!”  Thunderbolt was training Thunderstorm.  Turns out Storm’s son was weak and soft. How could the son of her best general be so weak?  “Can’t we just go back to making Hurricanes?” “Why do I have to fight?” he asked. “ I- I mean the tribe, needs your strength. Hurricanes aren’t gonna save us if Pyrrhia attacks!” she said, glaring at him. “I don’t want to fight!” He roared and a huge, gray cloud formed in the sky. “Yes, Yes get angry!” she said deliberately trying to make him upset.  “ You are so intolerable, I’m going to my dorm.” he hissed. “You’ll have to fight sooner or later!  she called after him.  You’ll have to serve me sooner or later. She thought wickedly.
Stormwatcher’s POV, (continued POV)
Thunderstorm’s POV Pt 1: 3 friends and a lover
All Thunderstorm’s life he had been praised for his powers- but never for his personality, That was until he met Crescent, Sunset, Abyss and Hurricane. He liked them all, Crescent was sassy and sarcastic, Sunset liked his personality, Abyss was his best friend forever and Hurricane… Well, just everything about her. She was sassy, fierce, ferocious, and she wasn’t afraid to speak her mind. She was also pretty, she had iridescent indigo-cerulean scales speckled with gold. (Although he couldn’t figure out where the gold came from.) Since she was a hybrid, she had scattered silver scales like a nightwing and webbed talons like a seawing. Although… she was a bit… arrogant. Yes, she was arrogant, he couldn’t figure out how her and crescent didn’t get along! They were so much alike!   Crescent's voice interrupted his thoughts. “Hey Moon Face!” She said, smiling maliciously. “H-Huh?” he said as freezing water was dumped on his scales. “BY THE THREE MOONS” he roared. “What was that for!?” “You have to wake up sometime!” she said, still smiling. “W-where's Hurricane?” she always made him feel better. Her smile turned to a glare. “Who cares about her? I don’t!” she hissed softly. Thunder shoved her away and spotted Hurricane near a apple tree, but.. He squinted, was that apple moving? “Hurricane?” the apple stopped moving as Hurricane turned around to see him. For a brief moment, he thought he could see worry, fear and kindness in her green eyes.. They were so gentle and welcoming. She kept looking at him like this until Abyss came over. “Hey everyone, Did anyone see my bracelet?” “Hurricane, was that apple just moving?” he asked curiously, Abyss was always asking questions, he was nosy and wasn’t afraid to admit it. Hurricane sighed, “Everyone, gather around…” Crescent, Sunset, Thunder and Abyss sat around her. “So, you all know how I am a hybrid right?” “Yes…” they said in unison. “There are only 2 tribes with animus gene, and the only seawing animus are royal. And I'm half nightwing. Are you guys getting it?” Thunderstorm’s blood went cold. “S-so” Sunset stammered. “Yes..” Hurricane said with fear in her eyes, she stared down at her talons. Sunset smiled warmly. “So I have a best friend who’s amazing and an animus!” She said. Cresnet interrupted “Oh, so the great Hurricane is scared of herself.. Looks like you're not so perfect now are you?” She said, smirking triumphantly. Everyone immediately turned to glare at her. “What’s your problem?” Thunderstorm snarled. “That’s my sister you're talking to!” Abyss hissed. I-I… Whatever! Crescent hissed softly. “Hey, I am not the only one with secrets.” Hurricane hissed. “GUYS!” Sunset roared.  “First of all, I was talking to Hurricane, Second, Crescent, stop being so stupid about this, and third, We need to get moving if we're gonna get to the soul crusher’s palace right?  “Yes” they all sighed. “Then cmon!” “AND STOP HISSING” She said fiercely.  “So, Crescent?” What is the soul crusher?” Abyss asked. Crescent’s usual frown immediately got deeper. “Millions of years ago, even before Dark Stalker there was an egg.” Wait- Wait are we just gonna randomly tell a story?” Hurricane joked. “Isn’t that like randomly breaking into song?” BE QUIET AND LET ME SPEAK!” she roared, Hurricane shrugged and got quiet. “Anyways,The egg had a caring mother but a hateful father. The father knew that once he hatched the mother would love the dragonet more than him. He decided to get rid of it. He was an animus, so he, instead of killing the egg… he made it ill. He thought it would die and there would be know sign that he did it.” Crescent said. “Is that it?” Hurricane asked, “Were traveling across this barren wasteland for that?” “Just listen!” Crescent snapped. Thunderstorm pressed his talons to his head, these two needed to calm themselves down. “Anyways,” she continued  “Somehow the dragonet hatched healthy… but with a dangerous condition called bloodscales, where the dragon can soak up the blood, also killing their opponents as well.  However, the condition is limited, and what fuels it back up? She paused for a moment and then finished her sentence.  Magic.” Thunder shot a look at Hurricane, the dragon was radiating magic, animus magic and prophet energy. Her expression was calm and collected, as if she wasn't worried at all. “Well that's it, we're dead.” Sunset said. “Mhm, definitely something you shouldn’t tell us, yep leading US TO OUR DEATH.” Hurricane said sarcastically. “Wait,” Thunder said. “Couldn’t Hurricane just kill him with her animus magic?” “No, she is already a target.” “Wait, target of what?” Sunset said. “Of the Soul Crusher… You see, she has those special prophetic powers, and that means her blood is powerful and power enhancing. “Why are you always the target of crazy dangerous beings?” Crescent joked. “It seems to happen every week!” “I don’t know, but that squid brain better keep his claws off of me.” Thunderstorm, Sunset, Abyss and even Crescent and Hurricane giggled, which is something they NEVER did together. But if she’s in danger we need to be on the lookout. Another part of Thunderstorm’s brain whispered. “Anyways, we need to set up camp, the moon is rising.” Sunset pointed a claw at the sky. “I’ve been wondering about the moon phases.” Abyss said. “Don’t even think about it. Sunset said “About what?” He said, smiling mischievously.”You knew what you were going to do.” Hurricane said. “Alright, Alright.” he said, with his usual goofy grin on his face. After they set up camp in a nearby forest, everyone went to sleep. “I’ll take the first watch.” Hurricane said. “Well, I wasn't gonna volunteer.” Abyss joked in a fake lazy voice. Hurricane shoved her brother’s shoulder playfully. “Shut up!” she said. “Good night everyone!” Sunset said. Thunderstorm closed his eyes and drifted off into sleep. Thunder was in a dream, and he knew it.. But how? He turned around and saw himself. This scene was familiar… it was the day he met Hurricane for the first time- and the day his life became instantly better. A happy Crescent was at his side, they had been set to marry when they were still dragonets. “Hey thunderstorm!” Crescent called. “Let's go find Sunset!” she said “H-huh? Oh yeah, sure.” he said.
After they find Sunset and they all go back to the garden…
“Hey guys, what's going on over there? Why is your mom over there? And thunder, there’s your mom!” Sunset said. “I don’t know! But… does anyone else see a shimmer of blue over there and some black!” Thunder said. Suddenly, a roar emerged from the crowd followed by the most beautiful dragon Thunder had ever seen. He took a step forward, but Sunset got there first. She pushed past everyone to get to her. “Hey, what's your name?” she asked the new dragon. The dragon did a slight jump and said, “ Hurricane, and your’s?” Thunder like this dragon already, she got straight to the point. And he could see that she was scanning the perimeter with her eyes, making sure of any danger that could be lurking around the place. “My name is Sunset.” she beamed. The dragon piped up. “Sunset? Like, Sunset of the Sunwings?” she asked curiously. “Yes… you know me!” she said. “I’ve heard of you! Is Thunderstorm with you?” she asked. “Yes, he’s right here in fact.” Sunset said with affection written all over her face. She pushed him forward. “O-oh hello, I’m T-thunderstorm.” he stammered. His cheeks were hot with embarrassment, and probably red but Hurricane didn’t seem to notice. “Hi, I’m Hurricane. I’ve read about your continent in my scrolls! Your mother is StormWatcher right?” she said. “Yes, she is, she’s-” “Well, since we're all introducing ourselves.” A voice interrupted from behind him. “I’m Crescent of the Moonwings.” she said arrogantly. Hurricane turned to face Crescent, with a slightly annoyed look on her face. Uh oh. Thunder thought. Him and Sunset exchanged worried glances. “Did I ask?” Hurricane said. Crescent stared at her with disbelief written all over her face. “That is NOT how you talk to the future queen of the Moonwings Seawing. She hissed. “Excuse me, I’m an acquired taste. If you don’t like me, acquire some taste. Hurricane said with a toothy grin on her face. “And for your info” she continued. “I’m a hybrid, half night-wing, squid brain. Crescent growled and was about to step towards Hurricane, when a dragon with scales as dark as the sea suddenly appeared between them. “Alright guys, show's over.” the dragon said. “But, wait, I wanted her to tell me about how she is the coolest dragon in the world!” Hurricane said. Crescent growled. “And who are you?” she said. “The name’s Abyss, little bro to Hurricane.” he said coolly. “Yours?’’ “Ugh, another one of you, how will I ever survive?” Cresnet said. “Alright that’s enough.” Sunset interrupted. “The big question.” she said dramatically. “Is why are you both here?”
*****
A few hours later, he woke to the sound of a wheezing breath and a roar, then a thud. He opened his eyes, the moons had still been up and it was late. Then as his eyes focused, something struck his heart, like lightning. Hurricane was wheezing, blood all over her body, her wing had been torn, scratch marks all over, blood pouring from her gills. She looked dazed and as it looked like she was trying to hold on, she collapsed on the ground.
Part 2
After hours and hours of worrying, Hurricane finally woke up. “H-Huh” she said dizzily, “Hurricane!” Sunset said happily, she ran over to go give her a huge hug. “What happened? Sunset? I can’t breathe.” Hey Abyss, why are you looking at me like that?” She said, dazed. “You’re finally awake.” Abyss said joyfully. “We were waiting for you, idiot. You can’t die on me.” Crescent said, smiling. “She means she’s relieved that you're ok.” Sunset translated. “And I am too.” she said, beaming at Hurricane. “I can die if I want to sand snorter.” Hurricane said playfully. “But, wait Hurricane, what happened?” Thunderstorm asked. “Well.. I.” She paused out of nowhere and lifted her head to the sky. This was not like her story about her friend Moonwatcher, because her eyes were all black. “H-hurricane” Abyss said cautiously. “No, not anymore” said a distorted, almost frightening voice. ‘’Who are you, and what have you done with Hurricane?’’ growled Thunderstorm. Ah, Thunderstorm, so brave, so dedicated to keeping Hurricane safe. But, underneath you're nothing.” Hurricane smiled wickedly. Thunderstorm was speechless. “Leave my friend alone!” Sunset lunged at Hurricane. She raised her claw and made a “Ah ah ah” sound. Thunder could kill this figure for that sound alone. “We don’t want to hurt Hurricane now, do we Sunset? You try to be strong but you need Hurricane to keep you standing, don’t you? She’s going to die, and it's. All. you’re. Fault.” She said. That hit Sunset hard. “No, No, no. She won’t die.” she said as if stuck in an endless nightmare. “Don’t. You. Touch. My. SISTER.” Abyss roared.  He jumped at Hurricane. Thunderstorm noticed in the chaos that there was something different about him. His claws were… blue. Then, Hurricane smiled. Ah, Abyss, one of the only ones actually capable of beating me.” “What do you mean?” Abyss said with a combination of curious, cautious and angry. “C’mon clever dragonet, look at your claws. You have the same condition as him so long ago. Listen, you have Aquatic claws, a condition that affects the claws when you get emotional, although does not fully develop until someone you love is truly in danger.” he said. “Who is “him” though?”  Abyss said. “You’ll find out soon enough.” she said. Suddenly, a roar erupted from Hurricane’s mouth. “ARGG, STUPID DRAGONET, STOP FIGHTING ME.” Thunder noticed that Hurricane’s eyes were flickering back and forth. “GET. OUT. MY. MIND.” Hurricane’s voice said. “NO-no-no stop it hurts…” the other voice said quietly. And then Hurricane’s eyes went back to normal. (Ahm hello, it's the author here. We pardon your normal chapter for a SPECIAL chapter with the dino nuggies POV! (Yeah I’m cringe, I mean, I put parentheses inside parentheses) Anyways, Nope, just kidding, I wanted to see if you were still with me here. The real POV is… *Dramatic pause* The Soul Crusher! Enjoy!)
Soul Crusher’s POV: Aggravating Dragonets
Soul growled softly as his possession slowly faded from his eyes. “Aggravating dragonet” he said aloud. Fine, I guess I need her now. And I still have that Sunwing dragonet under my claws, how clever you are. He thought. “Isis!” he yelled. A sand-colored dragon appeared from the shadows. “Yes?” she said, picking at her claws.“I have a new mission for you.” Isis snapped her head up. “Who do you want killed?” she said. “NO.” I need her alive. Lure her to me, act like her friend and then…” He made a snapping movement with his claws. “Do I have to? Can’t I just watch her? She said, annoyed. “NO, you have to lure her, and I can see her tensions are boiling. That Cresent is deeply, boiling mad at Hurricane I think she will leave soon. “Fine, where are they?” she said coolly. “A day's flight from here and a warning, the sister and brother have dangerous powers, and they're smart.” he said. “So am I.” she said. “Ok, well good luck.” he said. “I don’t need luck.” she said, lifting off into the sky. You’ll be here soon, my sister.
Meanwhile……
“Oof my head hurts really bad.” Hurricane said. “You just beat the Soul Crusher’s possession. Crescent said. “Wait, hold on, possess?” Thunder said. “Although that is highly confusing, as he needs an emotional connection to possess anyone.” Crescent said. “P-p-POSSES” Hurricane sputtered. “I may have forgotten to mention that.” Crescent admitted. ‘’F-FORGOT” Thunder roared. “Uh guys-” “How many powers does he even have!” Hurricane said angrily. “Uh guys-” “I don't know!” Crescent said. “How could you not know? He’s your legend!” Thunderstorm said.  “Uh guys?” “Well, pardon me, I didn’t study before a life or death adventure.” Crescent lashed her tail. “GUYS!” Abyss roared. “WHAT” they all said in unison. “Where’s Sunset?” he said worriedly. “Where is Sunset?” Cresnet said. “Alright, everyone split up.” Thunderstorm said.
******
“Guys, I found her!” Hurricane said. She pushed past a few ferns and to Thunderstorm’s horror, Sun was laying there, breathing shallowly. “Sunset!” Hurricane yelled, as she ran towards her. Suddenly, something caught Thunderstorm’s eye. “Hurricane, wait!” Crescent said, she must have seen it too… Please work, please work. He thought. He was lucky, the warning had worked. Hurricane had jumped out of the way, gracefully and elegantly and beautifully…. GAH, Thunder, focus. He thought. “Hey, Watch it, squid brain! Hurricane said. “
