Swift AU

== Summary ==
Everyone thinks they know me... they think that I'm just some... well, mindless villain. Instability may be part of my family line but I am not a mindless creature whom only wants to kill. I have a particularly different story. If you're still here, I am going to tell you there is gore and other 'mature themes'. If you don't like it, go away.
...
Those who have stayed must be here for a challenge, but, one last warning.
There. Proceed.

== ~Prologue~ ==
Swiftness thrust himself through the castle. 'I am so close... so close.' He smirked, making a quick turn around a corner of the corridor.
He slid just beyond another corner, peeking past as Casanova just barely stepped in a room. "Target spotted." Swiftness grinned, his black and orange eyes lighting up at a quick glance of Siren's form. He slowed his quick pace, trying to stay silent as possible for this to be a proper ambush.
He peered through a crack in the door, his ears flicking as he listened. Casanova heavily sighed before speaking. "Siren...I…I—" He stammered, trying to choke out the words he'd never think he'd ever say to any dragon.
"Evening, princess and...whatever you'd call him…" Swiftness grinned, stepping through the door as he gestured his talon toward Siren then Casanova. 
"You." Casanova snarled. 
"That’s Queen Siren to you, idiotic sea-slug. And why in the three moons are you in my palace, you ugly, good-for-nothing NightWing?” Siren growled at Swiftness. 
"That's no way to talk to your future king." Swiftness sneered, stepping closer before darting toward Siren with a knife in his jaws.
Casanova jumped over and slammed his talons into Swiftness's tail. Siren quickly made her way to try and claw the silver NightWing. He dipped his head away from Siren's talons. “Too slow! Missed me!” He barked at each miss of her claws.
Casanova grabbed a dagger off a wardrobe nearby and stabbed Swiftness in the side, then in the neck twice. Swiftness roared in pain.
Siren saw her opportunity and sliced her claws in the air once again, scraping them over his right eye. From the immediate pain, he threw his head back in a bloody silent screech. He dropped the knife, flailing his talons in the air before falling backward and slamming onto the palace floor. 
"You will never be a king." Siren snarled, ready to finish him. He snagged the knife and tempted to stab her abruptly in the chest, his eyes flashing hatred.
Casanova jumped forward, the knife stabbing into his shoulder, followed by a yelp.
"You won't kill her!" Casanova roared, seizing for Swiftness's throat and ripping it apart, blood covering the area and the tribrid's talons. His eyes were narrowed as he continued to rip and claw at the male NightWing's blood-gushing, gaping throat.
Lightning split across the dark blanket of clouds covering the night sky. The ocean’s tide came and went angrily. The sea was a dark, desaturated blue.
Swiftness gasped for air, wrapping his talons around his bleeding neck. His jaws departed to scream in agony and pain, but all that came out was gurgling dark red blood. All he could do was lay there in tremendous pain on the ground of the Summer Palace and let Siren’s burning venom seep into his mouth.
He clenched his jaws shut, his eyes glazing over to knife. 'This isn't the end... I won't die until she's dead... but this venom burns...' He thought, trying to ignore the rising pain.
"C–c–coward-d…" Swiftness finally managed to say, blood dripping out of his mouth as his strange eyes glared at Casanova.
"No, Swiftness. The only coward here is you. Thinking to attack? How stupid are you?" Casanova snapped. 
All Swiftness did was let out a croaky, squeaky laugh. He sank his talons into his neck, his eyes darting across the room before landing on Siren. "...You really think she’ll accept you, don’t you?" He smirked at Casanova. "After all, I wasn’t the only one who was part of the plan, Casanova. I was just stepping up because you couldn’t kill her…" 
"You couldn’t kill me." Siren snarled, her unsettling aqua eyes blazing at Swiftness. "And what are you talking about when you said Casanova couldn’t kill me, you disgusting, idiotic, blood-gushing, lazy excuse of a NightWing?"
"You don’t know? He was planning on killing you…I just did you a favor…" The silver NightWing hissed blankly, his large black wings spreading across the floor, followed by large amounts of leaking blood.
Casanova seized his throat again. "You monster! Your stupid little brain made up the idea; I wasn’t in it for the kill!" He growled, fury in his bright, glowing royal blue eyes.
Swiftness just smiled, baring his sharp white fangs. "Oh, Casanova…the only stupid dragon here…is you…" He hissed in Casanova’s ear before Siren’s stinging venom spread over his gaping throat, seconds just beyond falling limp. 
Casanova squeezed what was left of the limp corpse before shoving the bloody body aside. "Siren–"
"No." Siren growled, glaring at him. "I don’t want to hear any excuses. Leave the Kingdom of the Sea. I never want to see you here again."
Casanova winced, his eyes showing sadness yet still somewhat shock. He jumped off the balcony and flew away into the storm. Siren ripped the rest of Swiftness's neck up with her venom before turning to get the maids to clean his corpse off her throne room’s floor. "I will come back..." Swiftness's voice echoed, his eyes flinching before going completely limp and dead... or... maybe not?

== ~Chapter 1~ ==
Rainwater shuffled through the snow. "Ugh, why does there have to be so much snow in winter?!!?" a RainWing female hissed behind him. "Stop being whiney, Marmoset. Its not that bad. Just some winter chills we have to get used to this time of year." Rainwater sighed, stopping to dig through the snow.
The RainWing, Marmoset, bumped into him.
"Can you warn me next time you stop?!" She snarled, baring her fangs. "You have eyes. Use them." Rainwater joked, picking up some reindeer moss of the ground beneath the snow's surface. "Now, stop messing around and get some plants like this." He shoved the moss into her talons.
"Fine..." She groaned, stalking towards a snow-covered tree.
Rainwater paced around, sniffing for more. "Its no use, I don't smell anything." He snorted, backing up a bit as his head was raised to the sky. "Hey look! I found a lump in the snow! It might be a covered bush!" Marmoset turned her head a bit toward Rainwater's direction. "Well, start digging!" Rainwater barked, shuffling over.
Marmoset rolled her turquoise eyes, beginning to dig along with Rainwater.
The pushed the snow out of the way. "Ew! Dirt! EW!" Marmoset yelped, backing up. Rainwater rolled his eyes, continuing to dig. "Weird, I don't see roots.." He pawed through the solid mud.
He spotted something silvery-grey in the snow, just beyond where he was digging. 'Finally! A root!' He stood up and padded over, grabbing the thing in his jaws and tugging. The lump in the snow moved, shaking Rainwater a bit. "I think their is a tangle of roots under the snow- help me dig it out." He snapped.
"No! I hate snow! I also hate dirt!!" She yelped, stomping her talons in the white blanket of soft, frozen water.
"You're no help." Rainwater snorted, turning back and removing the snow. Once fully removed, he was left in shock... almost horror. "I-... what?!" He roared, his eyes locked on the bloody corpse that had been under the snow. "What? Is it mud?!?" Marmoset approached.
"Oh my moons! There is a corpse under the snow!!" She roared, jumping up into flight and flying into a tree. Rainwater raised a brow before turning his gaze back to the body. He gulped, raising a talon and shaking its tail. "Five more minutes..." a cold voice groaned before the corpse shuffled a bit. "Holy cow- its alive." Rainwater gasped under his breath.
The corpse's eyes shot open abruptly, its strange orange pupil glowing.
'Shoot.' Rainwater thought, falling backward as he tried to scramble away, his wings flared in downright fear. His snout roughly scrunched as the bloody dragon emerged from the snow.
Rainwater scooted backward through the snow, trying to make it out unseen. The NightWing's head swiftly turned to Rainwater's direction, quickly and abruptly swerving over and stomping on his tail to stay put. Rainwater bit his lower lip. "Wh-wh-who are y-you??..." Rainwater finally squeaked out, squeezing the snow in his talons. "I might ask the same thing... intruder..." the dragon snarled, stepping closer to Rainwater without letting go of his tail.
"I'm not alone! I have a friend who knows how to fight!" He yelped, turning his head to look for Marmoset.
His quickly turned back only to stop face to face with the silver night dragon, their snouts just two inches away from each other. Rainwater's eyes widened, he knew he was visibly blushing. He could feel his face heating up as he stared endlessly at the dragon... whom was supposedly meant to be dead.
"Where is the Sea Kingdom from here?..."
"I-I don't kn-know..." Rainwater winced, pulling his face away. "Tell me." the dragon snarled, his orange pupil glowing red. "I don't know! I am serious!" He yelped, scrunching backward.
"I said TELL ME!" He snarled, digging his sharp white claws into Rainwater's long, flowing tail. "Tell me your name... then I will." the hybrid winced in pain, clenching his jaws so he didn't scream out in pain. "And how do I know you will keep this... promise?" the silver NightWing hissed into the hybrid's ear. Rainwater thought for a moment, trying to make a plan to escape.
'Think, Rainwater. THINK.'
"I'm waiting..." the dragon snarled coldly, tapping his talons on Rainwater's chest. The hybrid and the NightWing both went silent as Rainwater thought.
"Uhhhh... I will take you there personally." Rainwater yelped abruptly. Now its was the NightWing's turn to think. The silver night dragon went silent. His cold eyes glanced around the area before landing back on Rainwater. "Fine." He hissed blankly.
"Now tell me... what is your name?" Rainwater snarled, scrunching his snout.
"Swiftness.."

== ~Chapter 2~ ==
'In all of the three moons no! I am not going to go to the Sea Kingdom with a 1,000 year old serial killer!!!' Rainwater thought, looking panicked now. "Don't be a baby, I'm not going to kill you... unless you escape," Swiftness growled bluntly.
