The Ancient Secret (WoF fan fiction)

Part one: Nightmares
Chapter 1
Silk Seer never really knew if she was special, or crazy. Magic doesn’t exist anymore, nobody can cast spells or torture people with magic anymore, right? If that was true, why did she keep having these strange dreams every night? Silk Seer remembered all of these dreams vividly. Always. She would be in the talon of an unknown nightwing, shivering and afraid. The nightwing had blood red eyes, as well as blood on his talons and teeth. He would let out a long laugh, and effortlessly crush Silk Seer.
She woke up with a jolt.
Why is it always that dream? She thought. She stared at the map on her wall. It was a map of the path between Pyrrhia and Pantala, and all pantalan visitors were required to have one. 
Silk Seer gasped.
Outside of the window was Jade Mountain academy, with swarms of dragons flying towards it. She thought of why her mother sent her to Pyrrhia, of how she was supposed to go to Jade Mountain Academy. She probably won’t be happy to hear that I overslept on the first day! Silk Seer thought nervously. 
She headed down the path to the large mountain looming over her, beckoning her to come inside. She stared at her wingbuds, still closed and purple colored. Her wing buds and her eyes were probably the only colorful things about her. She had gray scales, with silvery under scales. When she reached the top, there were dragons all around.
She bumped into a red skywing. “Oops! So sorry madame!” The skywing squeaked. “It’s okay…I wasn’t looking where I was going.” Silk seer replied. She noticed that the sky wing had yellow patterns all over him, as well as gills. Standing behind him was an angry human, and a pale orange skywing.
“Sky! Seagull! Let’s go!” The human barked in Dragon. Oh! The pale orange dragon is Sky! The First dragon to speak the human language! Silk Seer reminded herself. “Hey there!” Called a voice behind her. Silk Seer jumped. She turned around to see a nightwing with dark purple scales, almost black.
“Did I scare you? So sorry! I thought you heard me! The name’s Fatespeaker!” She said gleefully. Silk Seer watched as they flipped through a book and muttered, “silk wings…silk wings… silk wings…..Aha!” Fatespeaker looked at her and pointed at a spot in the book. It read the name Silk Seer and had a description of what she looked like and what winglet she was in.
“You’re in….Jade! Here, let me take you to your cave!” Fatespeker led Silk Seer into a large room with golden lanterns, a large gong in the corner, and a banner that read, Welcome to Jade Mountain, New Students!. Silk seer went down a long hallway, turned left, and then right. Forward, left, right, got it. Silk Seer repeated in her mind.
“And, we’re here!” Fatespeaker exclaimed, pointing to a cave with a green stone carved into the top and a sign that read, Jade. 
“Thanks.” Silk Seer called as Fatespeaker walked off. She saw a rainwing with obsidian black eyes and a tail barb, a mahogany colored mudwing with foggy white eyes, a light blue ice wing with a necklace adorned with 2 rings, and a brown hive wing with two, transparent leafy wings. But, she also saw another dragon sleeping in the hammock…was that…”Seagull?” Silk Seer asked.
“Dragon-I-don’t-know-the-name-of?” Seagull replied with a chuckle. “You know this dragon??” The rainwing asked, waving his sandy colored wings at Seagull. “Well, we met about about 5 minutes ago…” Seagull said.
The rainwing nodded, shaking his bright purple ruff. “Who is this new dragon?” Said the milky-eyed mudwing. “My name’s Silk Seer. I’m a silkwing, as might be obvious because of the name.” She answered. Seagull got out of the hammock and said, “The rain wing- sand wing hybrid over there is Snake, the mudwing is Coot, she’s blind, the ice wing is Frost, he’s grumpy if he doesn’t get his breakfast, and the hive wing leaf wing is Kudzu, a little cheeky at times..”
“I AM NOT GRUMPY!” Frost roared. Seagull just laughed. “You can be, you little snapping turtle.” Coot teased. Silk Seer just started eating some food left on the table. 
“Who took my Azula ant?” Kudzu asked. Seagull and Snake shrugged. Silk Seer stopped. Oh no! Not one of these day-mares! She thought. She saw a small ant crawling under a door, and stinging a dragon with golden scales and green eyes. She could hear the screams of agony.
“I-I….I think it went that way” Silk Seer pointed to the path leading to the principal’s office. Kudzu and the rest of the Jade Winglet ran through the tunnels, although now, Silk Seer could hear it very clearly, and her stomach dropped. She could hear the principal screaming.
Chapter 2
The whole school gathered around the office as Silk Seer creaked open the door. What she saw shocked her. There was a bug crawling up the wall, and a shaking and screaming dragon. Kudzu immediately trapped the bug in one of her leaf pouches. “WHY IS IT SO PAINFUL!? IT HURTS SO MUCH!” The principal was shrieking.
“Sunny! Are you okay?” Coot asked nervously. “DOES IT LOOK LIKE I’M OKAY??” Sunny screamed. Two dragons came and carried Sunny away. “We were too late…” Seagull sighed. “KUDZU!” An angry leafwing rammed through the crowd. Kudzu shrank back.
“What did I say about bringing dangerous bugs into the school?!?” the leafwing roared. Kudzu looked at her claws. “Not to…”
That night, Kudzu didn’t sleep in the Jade cave.
Silk Seer had a new dream. It was a dream that first started with Seagull, surrounded by humans, then went to Snake embracing an orange-yellow sandwing, and then Kudzu surrounded by angry leaf wings and silk wings. She was poked awake by Snake. “Hey. Silk Watcher, or..whatever your name is.” She got up. “It’s Silk SEER…” she yawned.
“Oh. Sorry. I forgot to ask you but…Do you, by any chance, know a sand wing named Sun?” Snake asked. Silk Seer thought of the orange-yellow sandwing from her dream. He’ll think I’m crazy.. She thought as she shook her head. Snake sighed. He was about to go back to his hammock when she said, “Wait.” Snake turned around.
“Who is he?” Silk Seer asked.
“Someone very important to me…” Snake muttered.
“Is he….your brother?” She asked.
“No! No…he's much older than me.” He replied.
The answer came to Silk Seer’s mind as a whisper as she thought of her strange dream, as if a small voice was lightly tapping her into the right way saying, This is it, just say it…
“Is he…Your father?” she asked.
Snake stopped. Tears had started to come out of his sparkling black eyes. “Yes…I miss him! He’s been gone for years and I don’t know why or where! He was such a great dragon and taught me pretty much everything I know! Now that he’s gone, my mother is depressed and won't talk to anyone. I'm spending every minute of my life looking for him, and the whole rainforest is worried!”
He’s so worried about him…Silk Seer just wanted to run up and hug him and tell him not to be sad, but she was drifting off to sleep.
Breakfast was different in many ways. First of all, the prey wasn’t roasted and served on a plate, the animals were just let loose all around the prey center. Second of all, the dragons didn’t just stalk up on the animals and hunt them, they were all running into each other and bashing into walls. “Now, now, dragonets! Calm down! Stop running before someone gets hurt!” said a mudwing as he stopped collisions.
Seagull walked up next to Silk Seer and laughed. “Clay always tries to prevent problems, but he can’t multitask very well..” Silk Seer scanned the area and saw Snake hanging on a high ledge, lashing his tail. There were no stairs up to the ledge. “Hey Seagull?”
“Yeah?” “I know this is a weird request, but can you lift me up to that platform?” “No problem!”
Seagull spread his yellow wings and lifted Silk Seer up to the rocky ledge. Now she could see that Snake was sitting with another dragon, one with large, round eyes and colorful dots speckled on his wings.
“Hey. You seem gloomy today.” Silk Seer said in a quiet voice. Snake didn’t answer, his beady black eyes staring off into space.
“You know Snake? Wow! I do too! He lives in a treehouse right next to mine and we eat strawberries together and did I mention that I LOVE strawberries and Snake is really funny when he’s not like this and also my name is Peacema-” The dragonet babbled on.
“Please. Just..Stop. You’re giving me a headache…” Silk Seer said, clutching her forehead. She opened her eyes and saw Peacemaker wrapping his wings around himself and a large, black dragon looming over him.
“Hello? Silkwing? Hellooooooo?” Peacemaker waved his talon over her eyes. Why does this keep happening? What does it all mean? Silk Seer rammed her talon into a very loud chicken and started tearing it apart.
Snake looked up. “Don’t Silkwings usually eat fruit?”
“Yeah….I’m just weird like that and I don’t know why. Although I do like drizzling fruit juice on my food.” Silk Seer answered.
“I do too! It’s hard being a hybrid of a carnivore and a herbivore…..” Snake growled.
“I know! Everyone always asks, ‘Hey, what would you eat? Meat or fruits?’” Peacemaker mumbled.
Snake bumped into Peacemaker and said, “Hey, what winglet are you in??”
“My winglet? Oh! I’m in Silver. I have THE GREATEST WINGLET EVER!” Peacemaker bounced on his claws.
“Really? Whose in it?” Silk Seer asked.
“Only the greatest dragons EVER! There’s Auklet, she's a PRINCESS! And also Cliff, he’s a PRINCE! And Mink, Bumblebee, Gulch, and Parasite! I have 3 royal dragons in my winglet, isn’t that AMAZING?!?!”
“Sorry, couldn’t help but overhear…” a black hivewing with yellow stripes swooped down.
