=== Chapter One ===
"Peril," Chameleon said. "Do you understand what this means? I can change you into anyone you want—a SeaWing, a MudWing, and I can make it look like whoever you want." Peril thought, Whoever I want? But that means... No more Peril. No more Peril? But... Clay, I can be whatever dragon he wants—a MudWing, and then he'd truly be able to love me!—I could become any dragon he wants me to become... Peril imagined all the possibilities. But can it turn me into a royal dragon who just existed in the royal family? What if Clay wants a royal dragoness? What will I do then?
"This necklace can really turn me into whoever I want?" Or, whoever Clay wants?
"Yes! Anyone you dream of! A nightwing who really has powers... a royal seawing! You could even look like the Queen!" Chameleon said. Scarlet snorted.
"But no one is going to walk around fancily in my scales, and sit on my throne." She snapped.
"But how does it work? Do I just think of someone and it makes me become them?" Peril asked.
"Well... it's sort of, complicated." He said. "I didn't do that with my forms. But first, I ask if we may go somewhere... private?"
"Why? Is there some sort of secret you don't want me to know about?" Scarlet snarled.
"No! Not at all!" Chameleon shrieked.
"Fine. Don't abandon me, though." She hissed. Scarlet's mauled face glared suspiciously at Chameleon as he lead Peril away.
"Now," Chameleon said. "This scroll is something not even Scarlet knows about. It's how I made my forms. I hide the scroll from Scarlet because I'm afraid she'll steal it from me and kill me." He explained.
"So, how am I suppose to become a different dragon?" Peril asked. She looked at the parchment, and then back at Chameleon. "And how will I be able to wear it? It will melt the second it touches my scales."
"Well, it will change the scales closest to it first, and faster then you'll possibly think."
"But what if it doesn't work? What if it breaks?" Chameleon sighed. He tore a piece of the scroll with some writing on it, and stuck it into another leather pouch.
"Here, wear this. The piece of the scroll makes the pouch fireproof--as long as it's in the pouch, anyways." Peril took the pouch, and was surprised that when she touched it, it didn't burst into flames. "So anyways, what forms do you want?"
"What about the scrolls inside?"
"As long as they're in or near the pouch, they'll be fine."
"Hm... Can I have four pieces of the scroll so I can think about?" Peril asked. She had forgotten all about her goal--killing Scarlet. Peril began to fly off.
"Wait!" Chameleon called, but she was already gone.
Peril flew back, back to Jade Mountain. It's time, time to see Clay.
=== Chapter Two ===
Peril landed in the entrance of Jade Mountain, she ran through the halls. There he is! She thought, before jumping on top of Clay and hugging him. It took Clay a few seconds to realize it was Peril.
"Peril!" Clay said, he hugged her back. "Where have you been?"
"Places." She said. "So anyways, I have a question."
"Ask away." Clay smiled.
"So, can you tell me four dragons you've always wanted to meet? Like their tribes... personalities... and stuff like that."
"Sure, why?"
"Just an experiment I'm doing." Peril said, she took the magical scroll out of the pouch.
"Well, I've always liked to meet another MudWing around my age who's a BigWings and a princess, and she has pretty scales that look like a mix of gold and brown!" Peril copied everything he said about her. "And I hope she'd be nice and kind and friendly, like Sunny."
"Next?"
"Hm... Oh! I'd like meeting a SandWing who has warm amber scales and cool patterns! They can be fierce and protective, like Tsunami."
"Then?"
"A large NightWing who's like Starflight. They could be like a dark blue-purple color. Their horns could be like a twisty shape and they like to wear jewelry."
"Lastly?"
"Well... I've heard of hybrids and stuff. So, I'd like meeting a hybrid of a sandwing and an icewing! It would be pretty cool! They'd be white with a purple tinge, and their wings would be a sandy yellow! They'd have cool diamond patterns on their scales, and they'd have blue eyes! They could be like Tsunami and Glory combined personality-wise." Peril smiled. She tore the scroll in four separate pieces, one for each form.
"Okay, thanks, Clay!" She said before putting the pieces away and walking off.
Peril decided to test the forms out, but she had to store them in special pieces of jewelry. She found a necklace with a locket, an earring, another pouch, and a sack tied to chains which was small enough to fit around her back leg. Peril took the other three pieces of the scroll out, and became the amber SandWing. She stored the MudWing form inside of the earring, the NightWing in the pouch, the hybrid inside of the sack, and took the SandWing out. She quickly put the NightWing form on, and stored the SandWing form inside of the locket. She took the scrolls out, and split them in halves each. Each item had another enchanted scroll on it that made them fire-resistant. Peril put all the forms back in their jewelry, and took some spare scrolls to put inside with her NightWing form. She took the pouch Chameleon gave her off, and set it down.
