Quote 	(to Senri when they first met) 
"I have no friends. I only have dragons who I thought were my friends. And that turned out to be wrong."
 
A P P E A R A N C E
I think they are, but nobody seems to understand that.
Anywhere in Moonshine Academy, you might notice a slim dragoness slinking in the hallways and disappear into classrooms, her deep indigo tail flickering out of sight, like fading auroras. She seems to flow like an aurora, to be exact.
Callaina's scales are a dark lavender, with shades of mauve flicking and darting across, until you look up. Her back is lined with purple spines that seem to conjoin like fur. Under that, is pale blue of the skies, of a SeaWing, of dawn breaking in deep indigo mountains.
Her scales do indeed resemble mountains. You look along her sides and confirm that she's part SeaWing. Her SeaWing ancestry has left curved patterns all along her, luminescent scales in a deep, long, sleep and would probably not wake up today. Her wings arch from her back gracefully, but their colors are inverted. Although her front legs remain deep indigo, her hind legs fade into shades of sky blue. Her underbelly is a collection of browns, beiges and auburns, alternating like a sequence down till her long tail. Her claws are a deep magenta, bright and serene at the same time.
You proceed to look up at her head. She only has two flecks of SeaWing pattern on the side of her face. But her horns caught your eyes the most with a dazzling royal pink. Also, the small ribbon on her right horn flows in the wind, and flows with her altogether.
You sat in front of her to take a close look. Then, suddenly, she stares into your eyes. Her eyes do not resemble the other parts of her, you thought. They looked piercing, courageous and victorious, as if any dragon who stared into her eyes couldn't last a few seconds before looking away.
But you didn't. Slowly, her stern expression began to crack into a smile. Light cascaded across her back like clouds casting shadows in a dawn sky.
I've looked for love in every strangertook too much to ease the angerall for you, yeah all for you

I have no human friends.
You might never know that three years ago, this dragon was nothing compared to what she is now.
Back when she first enrolled at Moonshine Academy, Callaina was timid and shy. In a world where her classmates had already bonded deeply with each other, she felt like an outcast, floating around a world of connections. She was never accepted into the groups, everyone else hated her, because of her crisp soul that would break and cry every day.
Callaina agreed to everything other dragons said because she doesn't want to lose her "friends". Even though how horrible those things were, she always did them, and even though they did to her nothing good.
Even though some dragons are evil in some ways, Callaina still believed that most dragons are good and can be great friends with her. She expected this, first from Faecollar, who left her because she was unable to perform a split and cried out. Second was Violet, whose actions hurt her very much.
But still, Callaina believed in hope. Her personality was changing as she wandered around the hallways alone, still being an outcast. She had saw through Faecollar and Violet, and was not fond of them anymore. She had realised that they didn't treat her as a friend at all, though she treated them as if they were her friends, or her masters. She would still cry alone, because of how stubborn and childish she was before.
Her hope finally came through when she had found where she belongs. Her classmates Senri and Thundervolt, once laughed at by her and everyone else, were her true fate, her true happy ending. She had finally realised what happiness actually is, what friendship actually is. Friendship is two ways. Friends must treat each other as friends.
When she finally graduated from Moonshine Academy, she waved goodbye and cried to Senri and Thundervolt. She would visit them often. But she was also ready and determined for her new life. There will be new dragons like Faecollar, a new Violet, a new Thundervolt, maybe even a new Senri. She knew what to do and who to find to fit in.
Callaina is courageous. She is always ready for change, because her life has gone through change.

Everyone moved away from me.
Because of her root in Pantala, she moved to Pyrrhia when she was three and joined a three-year-olds class, instead of starting over with the two-year-olds.
On Callaina's first day at Moonshine Academy, no one noticed her. She was just an outcast. Everyone else had already bonded together.
So she went to her cave. Inside was this shimmering black, white and silver RainWing dappled with golden splotches that Callaina couldn't take her eyes off of. She smirked at Calla and said,
"Hi! I'm Faecollar, your clawmate or whatever."
"Let's be friends!"
Callaina, yearning for a relationship, agreed immediatly to Faecollar. So in the many days and nights, Callaina and Faecollar were together.
One day, Silverbloom the Ice Rain teacher was asking some dragons about happiness.
"What do you think happiness is, Thundervolt?" She politely asked a small NightWing.
"I think happiness is marrying Senri," The NightWing replied, blushing a little. "She's so nice, and kind, and she has good manners. So whoever marries her would be happy...and I hope that that would be me."
Everybody laughed. "Lover boy! ThunderSenri for life!" They all chanted, including Callaina and Faecollar. They were together, their bond growing stronger, their feelings always the same, it seems like that Callaina would not be an outcast after all.
- Until Faecollar changed.
One day, Faecollar suddenly came to Callaina with a small LeafWing she never saw before. "This is Twig, my new friend. Twig, this is Callaina, my...assistant." Assistant? Callaina was having a weird feeling, but she wouldn't risk losing Faecollar and ask about it. "Yes," she obliged. "Okay, so, I'm starting a game called dance class. Faecollar and Callaina, dance with me. First, let's do the loop." she flew around and around. "Calla, try!" Faecollar called out as both her and Callaina swooped around, copying Twig's moves.
"Then, let's do the twist," Faecollar suggested, spinning around. Callaina and Twig soon followed suit.
"And finally...let's do the split!" Faecollar and Twig chorused as they spread their wings apart together and tilted their legs in an extremely difficult position. "Come on, Callaina!" "I can't!" Callaina breathed. "Then sorry, but we can't play with you anymore, because we'll be doing this every day." Faecollar said in mock kindness. That hurted Callaina as tears began to drop down her slim face. "I will do it." "Good!" Faecollar suddenly appeared behind Callaina as she and Twig gripped her wings and forced her into the split. "Ouch! Stop! That hurts!" Callaina jerked wildly. "Crazy lunatic crybaby! Let's leave her alone," Faecollar spat as she promptly flew away with Twig, leaving Callaina still in the dance position, tears running wild.
"Callaina, what happened?" Calla's mother Nasus the NightWing asked when Callaina flew home, tears still in her eyes.
"It's Faecollar. She tortured me and threatened-" "Then stop playing with her," Callaina's father Azure spat. "But I can't, I'll be an outcast forever!" "Then go to the most popular dragon in the school, my darling." "That's Violet the RainWing. She has lots of admirers always near her, like a merry-go-round." "Then join them!"
The next day, Callaina was with Violet. Violet didn't mind, while Callaina fit right in with Violet's best friends Goldfish and Wayfarer. She even protected Violet from her arch-enemy, Deadend, who promised that he would kill Violet someday. She flung her wings around her friend, hiding her from the NightWing soaring above.
"Why are you doing this to me?" Violet asked in confusion.
"Because you're my friend. I should protect you."
Weeks passed in a happy blur with Violet, Goldfish and Wayfarer. Soon her friends had knew that she is a slow flyer. One day, Violet came up to Callaina and said, "Let's play tag! You're it!"
"But I can't fly fast and I'll never win," Callaina wailed. Tears bubbled inside her eyes.
"Come catch us!" Violet cried out as she bolted away with Goldfish and Wayfarer. "She'll never!" Wayfarer whispered to Violet, as they both laughed.
Seeing her "friends" treat her like that, Callaina slowly flew towards them, crying. She had failed, again. She was an outcast, an outcast forever. I should go back to Pantala! I should never even come here in the first place! Callaina sobbed some more. No, there was hope. They wanted me to tag, so I'll tag. Callaina dtarted at them with her fastest speed, but was still veery far away. She had been through many close calls. Finally, she grabbed ahold of Violet's wing. "Tag!"
"Why are you grabbing me like that! Let loose! You're killing me!" Violet suddenly shrieked, her voice filled with anger that ripped Callaina's talons away from her wing. Then, she bolted away, leaving Callaina watching tearfully behind, still watching until the last tip of her long tail whisked out of sight.
But what hurts her the most was when she was back in her classroom, she overheard Violet boasting to her other classmates, and they clapped.
"We were nearly caught by Callaina seven times," Violet snapped, as her audience ooohed. "But we escaped from her seven times!" She suddenly broke a smile as everyone clapped wildly. Everyone but Callaina, who was crying silently, hiding away.
Soon school was terrifying. She wandered in the hallways, always alone and without a direction to go to, just like her social heart, wanting to fit in but couldn't. "Hey, what happened to you, Calla?" Goldfish would sometimes ask her while she was wandering, but was quickly yanked away by Violet and Wayfarer, who hissed "Don't even look at that crybaby, stupid!"
She wandered, wandered, wandered, until a few weeks later she caught sight of two dragons walking happily with each other.
A dark blue NightWing with aqua veins streaking across his wings twined his tail with a gold dappled SkyWing-SandWing with streaks of bronze over her scales as they held each other's talons. The SkyWing hybrid's green eyes had glowered around to find Callaina. Her voice was both sweet and worrying.
"Why are you here?"
Callaina looked down at her talons, afraid to face this dragon. Is she one of Violet's followers? But why is her voice, her face so familiar? Callaina did not notice this dragon when she was back in her classroom, unless...
"Senri," she breathed.
"Yes?" Senri tilted her head one more degree, her eyes still fixed on Callaina.
Callaina's heart was sinking heavily. Senri and Thundervolt. She had laughed at them years ago. Now they must've changed. Everybody has changed. It's time to tell the truth. "I have no friends. I only have dragons I thought were my friends," Callaina sighed, wings drooping around herself. "And that turned out to be wrong."
"Aww," Senri's harsh expression melted. "You are not wrong."
"But Faecollar and Violet-"
"Hush, Callaina, listen! Dragons who are bad will not treat you as friends, of course, but you cannot underestimate the number of good dragons around! Potential friends! If you already get knocked back due to only two bad dragons, don't give up! Have courage! Stand up from where you fell and meet new dragons," Senri and Thundervolt both turned to Callaina. "And if you have excluded yourself from the rest of the society, no relationships would form even if you yearn for them. Now, get up, stop crying and see who your real friends are. Now matter how silly or lovey-dovey they are, they're here for you."
"Even after years?" Callaina looked up at Senri for the first time, tears still sparkling in her eyes. "I thought you have already bonded with each other when I was still in Pantala."
"Calla!" Senri pounced over to Callaina and scolded. "Dragons aren't set in stone. Even after years, after we've bonded, dragons still change. I thought you already knew from Faecollar and Violet, they've changed before your eyes! But to change, in a good way, you have to have the courage to adapt to change."
"And speaking of which," Thundervolt joined Senri ans said, "We're not as invisible and minor as you thought we'd be. We knew that you, Callaina, is a pure dragon, with a pure heart that treats everyone as good. We also knew that Faecollar and Violet are bad dragons, just hidden under a cover of friendliness. Their true selves would eventually show. We'd expected you to join us, and we expected that day to come," he paused, then said, "And that day is today."
"You wouldn't do that to me, like Faecollar or Violet-"
"Callaina, look at what your thoughts have done to you! You're pure, so your mind is easily harmed by Faecollar and Violet into thinking you're a failure, an outcast, a wanderer in the hallways. But you have to believe in the truth that you're good and those dragons are bad, not the other way around. You need to change that. That's why you need us." Senri shook her SandWing frill. "Whether we're bad or good, Callaina...I suppose you already know."
Callaina didn't say anything. Instead, she flung her wings around Senri and Thundervolt, who edged closer to her.
Soon after, they were together. This time, it's Violet who became the crazy lunatic crybaby. Realising the true nature of their friend, Goldfish and Wayfarer left simotaniously, leaving only Violet crying over her famed, popular past. Faecollar still remained haughty and bossy, not wanting anyone in her way, including Callaina. Callaina, on the other talon, didn't seem to care at all. She was where she belongs, with her best friends Senri and Thundervolt.
The last year at Moonshine Academy was full of happiness. But time is fair, and soon Callaina would graduate.
Callaina won't be disappointed after that. Senri had told her that she and Thundervolt had bought a house in the town of Unity, close to where Callaina lives. Callaina would visit them every day. Senri's words still lingered in her mind.
But she was also ready for new life. She would meet new dragons, dragons like Faecollar and Violet, who pretended to be good then suddenly turned on her; dragons like Goldfish and Wayfarer, who blindly followed the most popular dragons into doing wrong things but realising that they're wrong at the end; maybe even dragons like Senri and Thundervolt, with pure hearts.
Callaina has the courage to adapt to change. She is ready for whoever life is ready for her.
to get to you, to get to youoh oh to get to you.

Why are you torturing me...
* Callaina is named after the accent color Callaina in the game Pocket Frogs. Callaina is a shade of Aqua.
* Callaina's history is partially based off LunaTFoxy's middle school and primary school life. Senri is based off Foxy's real life good friend, who isn't on fandom.
* Faecollar is named after the Pointed Fae Collar in the game Fer.al, an item that means How dare you even speak to me, perfect for Faecollar's personality.
* Twig is named after a play on Twiggle, which is an npc in the game Fer.al. I play that game too often.
* Senri is named after the Senri, a Chinese mythical animal known as "仙狸" that roughly translates to "Fairy Cat". Legends say that the animal would shapeshift into a human and suck peoples' souls. But Senri is actually a good hearted dragon, so her name reminds that appearences (and names) can be decieving.
** The same also applies to Violet, whose name sounds beautiful but she is actually mean.
* Callaina's ribbon on her horns is given by Senri.
* It's a coincidence that Moonshine Academy is where Starria, Beta and Dapper graduated.
