Prologue
Mosaic was running. Her deep blue and green scales flashed in the rising sunlight. Her heart beating, she dove into the long grass as a wing of dragons flew overhead. Looking for me, she realised, crouching lower.
I need to get far away from here, Mosaic realised. But… how can I? she thought. If I leave, I’ll be leaving the most important thing in my life here. She wiped her eyes, trying to stop the tears from falling.
How could she leave poor Termite behind? He’d helped her so much, even though he was a Hivewing. And... gave me someone to love, Mosaic thought, looking down at the egg she held in her makeshift sling, their white shells shuddering slightly.
She stroked the egg with careful talons, remembering how happy she’d been when she’d found out she was with egg. But remembering the terrible place she’d had it, she knew she’d have to escape the Hive. It was risky…but worth it.
Mosaic turned back to look at Wasp Hive, her wings shuddering as she remembered the Flamesilk Cavern, the snarling guards watching her as she gave her flamesilk to the dragons she hated the most. Except one. 
Termite was the one guard who had been kind to the flamesilks. He’d never jabbed them with his spear, or shouted cruel commands when the dragons were slow getting up. But when Mosaic realised she was with egg, she immediately knew it was Termites dragonet. He had been kinder to her than anyone else, and eventually, they fell in love. 
And he helped me escape, and kept our egg hidden, Mosaic thought, risking his own life for mine. She remembered him sneaking her out one night, the way she shivered as he passed her their egg and whispered “Go, keep our egg safe. I will always love you, and I will find a way to be with you again.”
She wanted him to come with her, but he knew it was too dangerous. Queen Wasp could take over him at any time, and do something terrible to their egg.
But that will never happen. I’ll protect our child”, Mosaic said out loud, straightening her back. “I will keep our dragonet safe no matter what. I’ll find a way back to you Termite, and I swear by the moons, nothing bad will EVER happen to our dragonet.”
And she turned and flew into the rising sun, leaving her cruel past behind.
Part One
Flight and Freedom
Chapter 1
Azure was stamping around the cave. She HATED when her mother went out for this long, even though she always said “it isn’t safe outside and you’ll get hurt and” rah rah.
Who CARES about safety? She only wanted to go out ONCE.
But NO. It’s STILL too dangerous, even though she was ALREADY FIVE YEARS OLD! For the thousandth time, she kicked the cold granite walls, shaking out her talon as it scraped against the rough stone.
“Would you give it a rest?” her sister Cecropia said, after looking up from the scroll she was reading and rolling her eyes at her older sister. Azure quickly turned around to glare at her.  “How CAN I when mother promised she would be back BY NOON and it’s ALREADY EVENING?” Azure once again kicked the wall, with more force then she intended too. “AND WHY CAN’T WE HAVE WALLS THAT AREN’T MADE OF STUPID STONE?! AARGH!” Cecropia shrugged at her sister and went back to reading her scroll.
Azure stomped out of the cave, squinting to look for a glimpse of her mother flying back with food. I might as well get food myself, she thought huffily.
But just as she had the thought, there was a flash of green and blue flying towards her at rapid speed. Azure’s mother landed on the floor of the cave, quickly shaking out her wings. With no food, Azure realised with a growl. 
“Come on, we’re leaving” her mother said quickly. “What, why?” Azure said with confusion. Was her mother FINALLY taking her out of the cave?
“There was a cloud of dragons flying away from the Poison Jungle. We have to follow them” her mother said. “Were there any Hivewings?” Azure said with caution. Her mother sighed. For some reason, Azure's hate of Hivewings made her mum sad. But why? Weren’t they evil? “No, but there were Leafwings among the dragons'' Mosaic replied quickly, to cover her sadness. Azure gasped. 
The Leafwings were ALIVE? How? “Go get your sister, quickly! We have to catch up to them!” Her mother rushed into the cave to get their belongings.
I can’t believe it! Azure  thought happily. We’re finally leaving! But… What exactly are we flying into?
Chapter 2
‘Swoosh’! As a book was placed under her eyes, she hardly believed it.
She was merely a dragonet but she had found the secret library of Queen Glory!
When everyone was enjoying their sun time, Firefly, Anniki and herself had ventured around Glory’s hut. After a slight detour because of some rainwing dragonets blocking the way with their miniature leaf tepees, they got to the back of the hut.
Firefly had told them an EXTREMELY secretive secret of Glory’s the other day, and now they were searching for it: Glory’s Private Library!
Firefly didn’t tell them how to get there, because she said she “didn’t know”, but Anniki thought otherwise. They had started shifting bushes, pulling branches away and hoping that something would magically open. Suddenly, as she was rummaging in a cupboard, Firefly called to Anniki and Starlight. “Guys! I think I found it!” Friefly yelled as the cupboard slid aside to show a magnificent sight...
“AZURREE!!” Shouted Cecropia. “Arghh!!” Yelled Azure, standing upright suddenly. “C’mon! We need to keep flying lazy-moons!” Scolded Cecropia “Ugh” moaned Azure. For some reason her sister was really quiet during the day, but SUPER LOUD AND ANNOYING in the MORNING, of all times! As Azure stretched her aching wings, she remembered her strange dream.
WHAT IN THE MOONS WAS THAT?  She asked herself as she sat up, growling lightly. AM I GOING CRAZY? OR IS SOMEONE MESSING WITH ME? EITHER WAY I DO NOT LIKE THIS!  Azure got up and went to pick up her belongings for another day of flying.
It had been three days since leaving Pantala to follow the dragons to… somewhere. Azure, Cecropia and their mother had been stopping an island behind the strange cloud of dragons so they wouldn’t be spotted. As Azure and her family lifted into the air once again, Mosaic caught up to Azure and spoke. 
“Hey, when we get to…  wherever we’re going, you should probably put this on” said her mother, handing her a rug made of silk. “Why?” Azure asked, confused. “Just cover up your wings” replied Mosaic warily. Hmm… VERY strange thought Azure, glancing at her mother as her wings shimmered in the air.
Azure looked down at her black striped talons, wondering why she needed to cover her wings.
