ºSTORY WILL CONTAIN VIOLENCE AND WORSEº 
Chapter one 
Jewel walked down a narrow hallway.
The school bell rang and she hurried to class.
The hall was a mess of students, Jewel, flicking back her long brown hair continued towards her class.
Ms. Stormworth is taking attendance. Jewel thought as she got into class.
“Jewel Treestar?” Ms. Stormworth said.
“Here.” Jewel replied, sitting down.
“Well look who it is.” Luna sneered as Jewel took her seat.
Luna Skyheart was Jewel's partner in many subjects like Wing Studies and Math. 
Luna had always treated Jewel terribly.
Jewel shot Luna a glare.
Luna rolled her eyes and focused on her homework.
Suddenly Ms. Stormworth spoke “Today we will be learning about wing growth.”
Maybe today we will know what types of wings we’ll grow! Jewel wondered, seeming like she thought too soon because Ms. Stormworth just said “Today we will study each other and try to figure out what type of wings you’ll grow.”
“I bet yours won’t even work!” Luna giggled.
“Shush!” Jewel snapped.
“So I have the information to know how to partner you.” Ms. Stormworth said “If your wings will come in soon you will be with someone who also has their wings coming in soon.”
Oh good. Jewel thought, her wings were coming in next week, Luna’s on the other hand would not be in for another month or so.
“Jewel you will be partners with Ivy.” Ms.Stormworth told her.
Jewel nodded and looked up at Ms. Stormworth.
Ms.Stormworth had long black hair with blue tips and blue eyes like the ocean, her dress was long and blue with a white ruffled rim and she wore silver round glasses.
When Ms.Stormworth started with the other students she had already gotten over to Ivy.
Ivy pulled back her long blonde hair and slipped off her wristband.
“You need help with fixing it?” Jewel asked.
“Yes.” Ivy said, her voice sounded sweet and happy even though her wristband was clearly broken.
“Done.” Jewel said, handing Ivy back her wristband.
“Wow, your good.” Ivy said, clearly impressed.
“Okay time to study.” Jewel said, standing up.
Ivy sat down.
Jewel ran her fingers over Ivy’s shoulder blades, feeling where her wings would come in.
They were small and felt round.
I think the round blades are... Jewel trailed off, what was it? Leaf shaped wings? Butterfly wings? 
Oh...  Jewel realized, Lacewings. 
“I got it!” Jewel announced.
“Really Jewel?” Ms. Stormworth said walking toward Ivy and Jewel.
“Yes,” Jewel responded “I think she’s a Lacewing.”
Ms. Stormworth felt Ivy’s shoulder blades.
After a few moments she announced: “Your right Jewel! Ivy is a Lacewing!”
Jewel felt a wave of pride flow through her.
“Oooooooo!” Ivy squeaked “Lacewing!”
Jewel sat down “Ivy, do me now.” she said.
After hours of study all the students had figured out what they were going to be, except Ivy.
“It just can’t be possible...” Ivy murmured.
“What can’t be possible, Ivy?” Ms. Stormworth asked, somehow hearing.
“Check for yourself.” Ivy answered.
Jewel felt Ms.Stormworth press against her shoulder blades.
“No,” Ms.Stromworth said “It can’t be.”
“What?” Jewel asked anxiously.
Standing up, Ms.Stormworth looked into Jewels eyes “You're a Featherwing.”
Chapter Two
“WHAT!” Luna screeched.
“But Featherwings are so rare!” Jewel protsted.
“Be proud of yourself Jewel.” Ms.Stormworth said.
Featherwings were the rarest wing type on earth, the only other Featherwing Jewel knew was the librarian.
Jewel looked at Luna, she was grumbling softly to herself, what was she feeling? Jealousy? Rage? Happiness? Surely not happiness.
When Jewel got home she saw her sister, Wolf.
Wolf had long golden brown hair and shimmering blue eyes like diamonds.
“I’m so excited!” Wolf squeaked.
“That you sound like a mouse?” Jewel teased.
“No!” Wolf yelped, lightly pushing Jewel.
“I have some news...” Jewel trailed off.
“What is it?” her mother asked, wings fluttering.
“Nothing to worry about.” Jewel said.
Both Jewel’s mother and father are butterfly wings, so Jewel expected she would be one too.
Jewel took a deep breath, “I’m a Featherwing.” she said.
Her father screamed, her mother dropped a plate, shattering it on the floor and Wolf just straight up passed out.
“Are you okay, Wolf?” Jewel asked.
“She passed out.” Her mother told her.
Oh boy. Jewel thought.
After a tiring week of school Jewel was very excited.
It was her wing growing day!
Wolf passed by Jewel, fluttering her wings.
Jewel checked her wristband, the silver dragon transport would soon be here.
“Bye guys!” Jewel called, running out the door.
“Bye!” Her parents called back.
“Have fun!” Wolf added.
A long sliver train pulled up in front of her house, Jewel hopped on.
The silver dragon shot through the clear glass railway as fast as a cheetah.
Before she knew it, Jewel was at school.
Jewel hurried to class hoping she was not late.
Good, I'm ontime. Jewel thought.
Jewel hurried beside her best friend, Rana.
Rana had long brown hair with golden streaks put through it.
There was a sign hanging in front of them that read: Crystal Coves Academy Students Leaving For Wing Growth List:
First People
Jewel Treestar: Featherwing Station.
Rana Peletstorm: Leaf shaped Wings Tree
“Well, I will see you tomorrow!” Jewel called, jumping on the silver dragon
Chapter Three
Jewel jumped off the silver dragon.
The Featherwing station was amazing, the walls were covered in crystals and decked out with feathers, but what caught Jewel’s attention was the old fashioned ice statue in the middle of the floor.
Oh! Jewel realized That statue is of Lady Heartsong!.
Lady Heartsong was the first Featherwing to have ever existed, back in 2409.
Suddenly the statue cracked, ice shattered all over the floor.
“Welcome.” The statue greeted.
“You can talk?” Jewel stammered.
Lady Heartsong only said “Stand here.” then she froze back into her stand.
Jewel, confused, stepped on the pedestal.
The feathers and crystals started whirling around her.
“What is happening!” She screamed.
Jewel watched as they formed a cave for her, suddenly her shoulder blades felt strange, then huge feathered wings shot out from her back.
Jewel expected it to be painful but it was not, she didn’t feel a thing.
The crystal wall collapsed in front of her.
Jewel took out her token, placing it in front of Lady Heartsong.
Jewel spread her wings and shot out of the station.
As she headed home she popped into Flowers and Powers, the old candy and flower store.
There was a girl at the desk, Luna!
Jewel fluttered her wings.
“Jewel!” Luna hissed.
“Hello, Luna.” Jewel greeted.
“Looks like you got your wings.” Luna grumbled.
“So?” Jewel asked, pretending to be confused.
“So, why am I not a Featherwing.” Luna hissed.
“Featherwings are rare, Luna.” Jewel explained.
“Whatever.” Luna said, rolling her eyes.
Jewel flew home. She passed by Wolf on her way home.
“Wolf!” Jewel called.
Wolf turned around “Jewel?” she said, puzzled “You look amazing!”
“Thanks.” Jewel said, she turned around and flew home.
Chapter Four
Jewel woke to the smell of eggs.
Yum. Jewel thought and headed downstairs.
Her mother was cooking, you guessed it, eggs. Her father was reading the newspaper (not really paper at all) from the projector they had put in the counter.
Wolf was, wait where is Wolf? Jewel thought.
“Where's Wolf?” Jewel asked worriedly.
“Dunno.” her father answered.
She turned to her mother, “No idea.” She said.
Jewel looked at her parents, surprised by their answer. She walked away and sat down on the spin-a-whirl.
The spin-a-whirl is a chair that makes you spin in circles while it fixes your clothing and hair.
Jewel spread her wings and took off.
Jewel knew it took longer to fly to school but she couldn’t help it! Flying was so much fun and pretty soon Jewel wouldn't be going to school at all. Well she would still be at the school and learning but she would not need to be in Ms. Stormworths class she would be in Mrs. Clived’s class, but that would be after summer break.
“Good morning Jewel!” Ms. Stormworth greeted Jewel as she got to class.
“Good morning!” Jewel replied.
“More like good snoring!” Luna snickered as Jewel sat down.
“Like your brain?” Jewel snapped back.
“You're the one who grew her wings in a glass box!” Luna twirled her finger around her head and rolled her eyes, telling Jewel she was insane.
“You were not there so there is no proof I grew my wings in a glass box.” Jewel huffed.
“Shush!” Rana snapped from behind them, Jewel gasped.
Ranas wings were indeed leaf shaped but she had a small vine curling around her light skin and a leafling crown on her head.
“You're the missing leafling princess?” Jewel gasped.
“So what we’re still equal, I’m a princess, you're a Featherwing.” Rana said.
“Attention!” Ms. Stormworth announced “Some of you now have your wings as for others” She continued, eyeing Luna “You don’t.”
Luna rolled her eyes.
Then the bell rang. Everyone hurried out of class to go to the next.
After school Jewel was helping cook dinner, they had found Wolf.
Wolf was in her room reading.
Jewel dropped some fish in the fast-cook-pot-cooker.
It cooked stuff at twice the speed which had its ups and downs.
I hate fish. Jewel thought. Jewel had to cook it anyways.
Jewel lay in her bed.
It was night and she was going to bed. 
Jewel had to sleep on her stomach now with her wings.
As Jewel drifted off to sleep she saw a figure. Lady Heartsong!
This Lady Heartsong looked nothing like the beautiful statue in the Featherwing Station, she had a large scar over her eye and her wings were torn.
“Greetings, Jewel.” Lady Heartsong greeted her.
“Hello Lady Heartsong” Jewel said.
“Please call me Cloud.” She said.
“Alright.”
Cloud pulled back her hair, stars sprinkled everywhere.
Figures started to appear from all the directions.
The other guardians!
The Guardians are the first of all the wing types, Queen Silkheart of the Lacewings, Princess Tree of the Leaflings (Better known as leaf shaped wings, ‘ling’ instead of ‘wing’ at the end of their names indicates that they are royal.), Shadow of the Shadowwings, Echo of the Butterflywings, and Lady Heartsong (Cloud) of the Featherwings.
“Welcome Jewel” They all echoed.
Their eyes glowed as they spoke all in unison:
“Fire meets fire
Ice meets Ice
You can see them in their final bites
Seeds see all that there is to live for
Nothing is left to forgive for
See our spirits set us free
Help us save the last tree”
As they faded away Jewel wondered The last tree?
Chapter Five
Still puzzled Jewel lay down to read.
That's when she got it. Ms. Stormworth had told her about the cutting of the great big oak also known as the last tree!
They were cutting in a month but it was across the country!
I have to get there!
Jewel picked up her bag and left.
Jewel knew where she was flying.
She would pass by the Shadowing station. Where Luna was at the moment!
Luna is brave, I need her with me on this. Jewel thought.
She waited a little bit and Luna came out at last. Two clouds of smoke followed her.
“Jewel!” She hissed.
“Luna I need your help!” Jewel pleaded.
“Why would I help you?” Luna asked, narrowing her eyes.
“Luna you are smart, brave, and strong and this is really important to me please.” Jewel asked.
“What is it?” Luna said.
“The last tree” Jewel said “They are cutting it down,” She stared at the silver ground below her “It's been around for years we can’t let it go.”
“I’m coming!” Luna said.
“Good!”
Luna flared her new wings to try and keep balance.
“Let me help you.” Jewel heard a person say.
She looked at them. Warrior! She thought.
“Warrior if you want to help Luna at least don’t make her feel bad!” Jewel snapped.
“And since when did you want to defend Luna?” Warrior sneered.
“Since humans could fly!” Jewel hissed.
Warrior started to speak but was too carried away at how Jewel snapped at him.
“Thank you.” Luna said “You're a good friend.”
Jewel brushed Luna’s wing tip lightly.
It was the beginning of her journey and she had made a new friend.
Chapter Six
“We have been flying for days!” Luna whined.
“Shush!” Jewel snapped.
Jewel couldn't help but admit that Luna was right, they had been flying for days.
“Let's go rest by the fallen metal tree.” Jewel suggested and Luna practically stopped flying in midair!
They landed and Luna rested her head on the metal.
Jewel looked around for something to eat.
She spotted a bush.
Oh good it's growing blueberries. Jewel thought.
She picked some and gave them to Luna, who ate them as fast as a lion.
“Well, we should go now.” Luna said, spreading her dark wings.
Jewel nodded flying after Luna.
They flew for hours and hours before they reached the city.
Jewel looked up. The great big oak was towering in the heart of the city.
“Those mindless idiots are going to cut down THAT?” Luna screeched.
“They aren't mindless idiots if they want to cut down that.” Jewel pointed out.
“True” Luna said.
Jewel and Luna flew through the city till they reached the tree.
The oak was amazing.
“It's over one thousand years old.” a voice said from behind them.
The girl looked like Luna's twin! .
Oh that is Luna. Jewel realized.
She was impersonating Ms.Stormworth.
“Sneaky!” Jewel laughed.
“Let’s go land!” Luna said.
Jewel and Luna landed.
Jewel looked up. This is going to be a long journey.
Chapter Seven
Fear came over Jewel when she saw the sign.
Being cut down. It read in big purple letters.
She watched as Luna twirled her light fingers around her blonde hair.
Luna seemed to have a faint glow to her.
A girl with transparent wings flew up to them.
“Hello,” Luna greeted, happier than normal.
What has come over her these days? Jewel wondered.
“Hello” The girl responded “I’m Marcia, you are?”
“Luna.” Luna replied “and this is my friend, Jewel.”
Marcia did not greet Jewel but instead just stared.
“Your a … a Featherwing!” The Lacewing said.
Oh thats why. Jewel nodded.
“We don’t want this tree to be cut down.” Luna explained.
“We are students from Crystal Cove.” Jewel added.
“You flew all the way?” Marcia asked “Oh you must have taken the silver dragon night train.”
Jewel and Luna exchanged glances.
“We had no idea about the silver dragon night train.” Luna admitted.
“We flew,” Jewel added.
“YOU WHAT?!” Marcias jaw dropped.
“Flew” Luna said.
“How long did it take you?” Marcia asked.
“DAYS!” Luna dropped her head.
“Oh well come with me, I will get you somewhere to stay.” Marcia offered.
“Thank you Marcia.” Jewel said.
The girls spread their wings flying after Marcia.
Marcia stopped at a place called An Echoing Breeze.
“An Echoing Breeze,” Luna noted “Is that named after Echo?”
“Yes, Echo is very honored here.” Marcia replied.
They went inside to see a fern covered statue of Echo.
“Would you like a room?” The robot at the counter asked.
“Yes please.” Luna said “Two beds.”
“Got it.” The robot replied “Here's your key.”
“I have to go now.” Marcia said “I will see you tomorrow by the tree, I want to help you.”
“Great.” Jewel replied “See you tomorrow.”
Luna flared her wings and they headed upstairs.
Chapter Eight
The breeze rushed over Jewel’s face.
“Luna, wake up.” She shoved her friend lightly.
Luna yawned, pulling back her dark wings.
Jewel walked to a small robot which got the perfect outfit for the day.
The robot twirled around and gave Jewel a white top and a storm coloured skirt.
They waited for Marcia at the tree. It took awhile but Marcia came.
“Sorry I took so long” Marcia said sitting down on the bench.
“No problem.” Jewel said.
“Oh my gosh!” Luna yelped.
“LUNA!” Jewel screeched.
“Watch this.” Luna said pulling out her phone
The video showed a girl running away from a person in a cloak.
Ms. Stormworth.
She was running around flaring her wings at the intruder.
The intruding person grabbed her by the arm and whispered in her ear, “Take your final breath.”
“NO!” Jewel screeched, she knew it was too late now.
Ms. Stormworth collapsed underneath him, dead.
“Goodbye Gloria.” He whispered “Goodbye.”
And that was it. Jewels friend, her teacher was gone, dead, forever.
Chapter Nine
Ever since Ms.Stormworth died Jewel had been lying in her bed thinking about all the things her teacher had taught her.
I will miss her. Jewel thought.
Yesterday had been the only day Jewel had heard her teacher's real name, Gloria.
“Jewel just stop being so gloomy.” Marcia said.
Jewel jerked up “She was my TEACHER, Marcia.” Jewel hissed.
“Plus seeing someone who treats you with care and respect hurts.” Luna added, her head hanging.
“Oh now I get it.” Marcia said.
Jewel sat up “I need a walk.” she said, Luna and Marcia nodded.
Jewel walked around the park where the tree was. Many people were giving the tree roses as a goodbye.
They are close to nature here. Jewel thought.
Jewel walked around a small metal bee buzzed by her head.
Jewel closed her eyes to picture the world if humans were more careful. 
She saw many trees. And real butterflies! She saw Rana, Luna and Marcia, her closest friends by her side each holding… WHAT! A SEED! For A TREE!
Jewel rushed up and took off.
When she got in the room she was panting.
“What is it Jewel?” Luna asked “Did a bird hit you?”
“No.” Jewel replied “But I realized something.”
“For a very long time now oaks have grown fruits.” she continued.
“And the fruits have seeds!” Luna exclaimed.
“YES!” Marcia added “Its fruit season now!”
The girls flew as fast as they could to the tree.
Marcia was right! 
Small fruits were everywhere.
They picked one for each of them.
This adventure just got real.
