== The Legend Of The Lost Treasure ==
“Long ago, before the Scorching, There was a dragon named Deathspeak. Deathspeak claimed that he found a chamber filled with gold, coins and other costly treasure outnumbering the SandWings treasury. Nobody believed him, but later, at his deathbed, he told his family the location of the chamber. His family then found the chamber but it was empty, only a few coins remaining. Nobody knows what happened at that day. The treasure was lost forever."
==Prologue==
Butterfly 
Butterfly swung swiftly through the trees, doing her best to avoid making noise. All she wanted was a moment to herself - something she was unlikely to get with her three new younger sisters. Just three months old, Amaryllis, Flourish, and Heavenly still had not grasped the concept of suntime... or staying quiet.... or leaving their older sister alone. 
Finally, she alighted on a thick branch, taking a deep breath of fresh sea air. She loved the ocean, and was lucky their home in the jungle was within flying distance of it. The wide, clear expands stretched far into the distance, only disturbed by the faint shape of one of the islands in the Bay of a Thousand Scales. 
"Ahh!" Butterfly flew back as a yelping ball of dragon crashed into her, a bundle of wings and flailing limbs. 
"Sorry, sorry sorry so sorry oops!" The voice managed to sound both repentant and like it was holding in gales of laughter. Butterfly attained her balance again and examined the intruder. It was a dragonet, that much was for sure, about her age. He had large wings with odd patterns on them and a strange mix of symbols and patterns along his scales, which faded from ice blue to chocolate brown to soft pinkish red. His snout was wide and flat like a MudWing, but his prehensile tail was curled around the branch above him, keeping him aloft. 
"Who... are you?"She inquired. 
"Oh! Hello," the dragon said pleasantly. "I'm Tern." 
"Why are you here?" She didn't want any odd dragons disturbing her place. 
"Well," Tern started, looking vaguely confused. "I was flying home, and I got lost. I think." 
"Where do you live?" Butterfly asked, genuinely curious. He waved in the general direction of the ocean. 
"In the Kingdom of the Sea! The best kingdom, of course." 
She laughed. "Can't be, since the Rainforest Kingdom is better." 
He shrugged as he settled back on the branch, tail dangling down towards the forest floor. They sat there and talked as the sun inched across the sky, laughing and talking together. Butterfly was stretching up to grab a few mangoes from the tree above when Tern let out a startled yelp and almost fell off the branch. 
"I forgot! The letter comes today!" He began scrambling around frantically, wings flailing as he tried to regain his balance. 
"The... letter?" Butterfly inquired, confused. He nodded several times in a row. 
"The JMA letter!!! Oh i really really hope I get in..." With that, Tern swooped in the air, glancing back one last time before flying into the distance. Butterfly shrugged, ate one last bite of mango, and flew back home. Heavenly was sitting on the porch, yelling her name. Butterfly was annoyed until she saw what she was holding - a crisp white scroll addressed 'Butterfly of the RainWings'. 
She quickly opened it and gasped as the JMA logo jumped out at her. Butterfly couldn't read very well, but she was pretty sure was she knew what this was. 
She fell asleep that night dreaming of Jade Mountain Academy - so much to kearn, so many dragons to befriend, so few sisters to annoy her. She smiled. 
==Chapter 1==
====Maximus ====
Maximus traveled through the long stone tunnels of Jade Mountain academy, flying directly to his bed. It was a long day ahead. His eyes were hurting, as he did not sleep yesterday and was busy experimenting in the extremely well-stocked Jade Mountain science lab. Before he could get any rest, Tern flew up to him. 
“Hey Maximus, it's nearly time for history class!" Tern, his overly cheerful tribeless friend, had large wings with strange patterns. His weirdly coloured scales seemed as if they were glowing in the sunlight. Just then, Butterfly came in. 
“Hey, I was looking for you two. Maximus, you look tired, you should rest today. I'll tell Webs that you won't be attending history class today." The RainWing had light blue scales today, and an oddly pleasant attitude matching her unusual coloring. Maximus sighed his thanks and dozed off.

----
Maximus woke up and looked from his window. Many dragons were lounging outside, chowing down on fish, deer, goats and fruits, depending on the tribe. 
“Oh, it's lunchtime!" he realised. He flew outside to grab a goat, quickly tore it into pieces and sat with Tern and Butterfly, who both wrinkled their snouts at his meal. His SandWing friend, Cactus, was hunched over on the warm stone, painting a gorgeous depiction of a sunset instead of eating. 
Skyfrost, another friend of Maximus was ripping apart a small squirrel and eating small bits of it. Maximus always felt that Skyfrost had extraordinarily cold scales whenever he went near her. Maximus looked at her. She had an odd appearance because of her being a Sky/ Ice hybrid. 
Splash was also sitting near Skyfrost. He was intently perusing a large book about scavengers - he never seemed to run out of those huge books no matter how much he read every day. The SeaWing called to him, pale blue scales blinding Maximus when he tried to look directly at his friend. 
“Here, eat my fish. I caught it at the lake but, I'm not hungry, so you should havd it." Splash tossed Maximus a small, floppy silver fish. Maximus ate it without complaint, grinning happily. Splash, a SeaWing, had light blue scales patterned with the glow scales unique to his tribe. 
After eating, Skyfrost went to the library, Splash followed her to bother Starflight with endless questions about scavengers again, Maximus joined Cactus in painting, and Butterfly and Tern went flying outside. Maximus put his brush down and admired 
Cactus'new painting of stunning a night sky complemented by two full moons. Suddenly, Maximus felt woozy, his head spinning. Something was in his hand and it was paining. He went unconscious... 
Maximus woke up after a few hours, he could not talk because ropes were binding his mouth. He could see that he was in a dark room and there was a shadow of a large dragon in front of him. Maximus was tied to a chair and was chained. Dark red blood was dripping out his hands. The large dragon came forward. It was a large IceWing. The IceWing had light blue eyes and bloodshot eyes with several scars near his eyes and neck. A gun filled with poison darts was in his hand. Maximus had a small poison dart on his hand. “You, SeaWing, I know you are the one who will find the clues to the lost chamber. Do not try to hide. I will kill you". The IceWing said. “I am a descendant of Deathspeak and before he died he made a prediction and no one till now could decode it. But, I decoded it. Find all the clues. You have one month. After that, I will decide what to do with you". “Who are you?" Maximus asked. "I am Frostclaw" said the IceWing. 
Maximus heard the sound of the dart-gun and fainted. He woke up at Jade Mountain in his bed. He thought it was a dream and didn't think much of it. But then, Maximus saw a body of a dead MudWing. Written above the body in the wall in blood was the message - “ You have one month until all the Jade Mountain students will be killed by me. Obey or suffer my wrath" 
Maximus let out a scream... 
==Chapter 2==
Cactus
He did not notice that Maximus was gone until he finished his painting. He suddenly heard a no scream coming from the hall. He ran there with Tern and Butterfly. In the hall, Maximus was screaming in front of a dead MudWing and was looking at a wall. There was a message written in blood on the stone wall. He read it and felt a shiver down his spine. Clay, Starflight and the other school founders escorted Maximus inside his room except Sunny, who was in a state between crying and grieving.
Cactus and his friends went into the room. Maximus was on his bed with a shocked expression. "Maximus, what happened?" Butterfly asked. “There was an IceWing, he took me captive and was telling me something about a dragon named Deathspeak and a lost chamber of treasure. Said Maximus. 
"Wait" said Splash “I think that there's a book about Deathspeak in the library".
After a few minutes, Splash came back holding an old red book titled “Ancient Histories of Pyrrhia". He flipped a few pages and there it was- a page about Deathspeak. There was a red, handsome picture of Deathspeak. The page was-
“Deathspeak was a kind dragon with prophecy powers before the Scorching. He was a traveller and he travelled all over the continent. Not much was known about him. He once discovered a chamber filled with gold, but, nobody believed him. At the time of his death, he made a prophecy about who will find the treasure again. He also told the location of the chamber to his family, but, when they went there, there was nothing left. The treasure was lost forever. The location of the chamber is believed to be near the Bay of a thousand scales."
