## PROLOGUE

Taichi was in pain.

He'd been flying over the sea for days, almost a week now, his wings ached, and his nostrils were constantly filled with the salty smell of the sea. The SandWing landed on a small island covered in sand, while his travel partner (named Bizanguita, Biza for short) landed a meter or so behind him. Taichi looked over at the other SandWing as she settled down her many rugs and blankets, then proceeded to make seashell patterns near the shoreline.

They weren't staying on this island for the night, they were planning to go all the way to the continent, since Biza told Tai that the lost continent wasn't far from here. He blinked, and lay down on the sand, he wanted to get some rest before continuing the journey to this mysterious continent. Taichi fell asleep almost immediately after he lay down on the ground, not being bothered by the cold wind that swept over him frequently.

Taichi then woke up to sand in his nose.

He sneezed, causing the sand to come out of his nose and get picked up by the seaside wind. Tai shook his head, causing it to hurt a little, and he looked around. He realised that he'd slept for the whole day, and the sun was now just coming up. There was no time to lose, the SandWing shot up into the air, which caused lots of sand to be thrown up and carried by the wind, and some of it got to Biza, since she coughed and woke up too. Tai was already heading off to the lost continent, and she wasn't too happy about it.

After a few minutes of flying, Taichi finally saw the shape of hope.

It's the Lost Continent.

Tai's face lit up and he beat his wings harder and faster in hopes that he'd reach the continent faster. His wings started to ache again, and he could hear the groaning of the traveler behind him, Taichi turned his head around to face her and smiled awkwardly, Biza simply just rolled her eyes and continued flying.

Eventually, Taichi and Biza's talons touched down on the beach of this new continent, and the female SandWing traveler waved at him. "I guess this is where we part ways... See ya." She smiled at him, and he smiled back. "Bye." Tai waved as she rushed off down the beach. Taichi sighed and stepped onto the savannah grass, he looked up, and was greeted with many tall buildings connected with what looked like silk bridges.

*This place is awesome!* Thought the SandWing excitedly, he examined the land a little more, and realised that there were no trees except some in one little area. *Where are the trees?* He thought, looking around for more but failing to find them.

And then, he heard a noise.

A rustling noise.

From some bushes nearby.

Shocked, Taichi leaped into a battle pose, holding his venomous barb up high in case whatever is there is a threat. Then, out of the bushes came a small dragoness, she was of a tribe Tai had never seen before. The mysterious dragon screamed and fell back, then Tai quickly went back to his normal pose. "Who are you? And *what* are you?" He asked, curious. "I'm a HiveWing." Said the HiveWing dragoness. "Are you a distant continent dragon?" She asked, cocking her head. "Yeah!" Replied Taichi, smiling. The mysterious dragoness smiled back. "Do you want a tour?" She asked.

"Yes please." The SandWing nodded and the HiveWing turned to walk away. "Follow me." She cried, bounding away. Tai laughed and rushed after her. The dragoness introduced him to her home, Pantala, and showed him several things, like the hives, the poison jungle, and many other things.

The tour then ended.

"I hope we can get to know each other better." Said the HiveWing, sitting next to Tai under the shadow of Hornet Hive. Taichi smiled at her. "I hope so too."

## PART ONE: USELESS

### Chapter one

Chihiro never thought himself as special, or worthy of living a peaceful life in the Hive with his family. He never hoped to be born to this family either, he just wished he was a basic HiveWing, or a SilkWing. He wished he wasn't so feminine either, he wished he had black stripes and a venomous tail. Thinking back in time hurt him, that trauma was... Beyond horrible, at least to a HiveWing.

***Flashback***

Taichi's talonsteps tapped through the halls, Chihiro was meanwhile, asleep. Chihiro's wings twitched, Taichi opened the door to his room. "Hey... Chi?" He said, peeking into the hybrid's room. Chihiro yawned and looked at him. "Huh?" He said, rubbing his eyes. "School." Taichi said with a sad tone in his voice. "How could you forget?" Chihiro shot up, wide-eyed. "HOW COULD I?!"

Chihiro rushed to grab his bag, he packed it and slumped over his back. His mother smiled at him. "Are you excited?" She asked hopefully. "HECK YEAH!" Chihiro said, jumping into the air, his mother giggled. "Okay, but don't come back whining." She said, Chihiro sighed. "I won't, don't worry."

Chihiro rushed out of the door, he took to the sky and started beating his wings as confidently as he could, he waved bye to his mother and father, he erupted into giggles. *I'm gonna have an AMAZING DAY!* Chihiro thought happily.

~ \*-\*-\* ~

What what felt like hours of flying, Chihiro finally arrived at the school. His spirits dropped slightly when he noticed two guards at the door, he walked shakily up to them. He has always hated making contact with the guards, he never knew whenever they would attack. Guards are unpredictable, you can't even smile at them! (Well, sometimes, but not always.) Chihiro waited behind another HiveWing, who has showing her student ID to the guard. He let her past.

Chihiro walked up to the guard, he was trying his hardest not to smile. "ID." The guard said with a gruff voice. "Ah right." Chihiro said, he grabbed his bag and rummaged around in it. He pulled out a blue card and handed it to the taller, red HiveWing. He examined the card for a moment, he eventually handed it back to Chihiro. "In." He said with his tough voice. "Thanks.." Chihiro said, his wings shaking. He stepped into the school with high pride.

### Chapter two

He looked around the school, the floor was of pure marble, as well as the walls. Golden pillars dotted about the walls, Chihiro was amazed. *I didn't know my parents sent me to a school THIS fancy!* He thought, happier than before. He looked at a poster on the wall beside him, it read: "New students gather in the hall!" With a drawing of a happy HiveWing on it that was possibly drawn by a young dragonet, but then again that was supposed to make it feel happy.

Chihiro looked around again, confused. "Where is the hall?" He mumbled, starting to fear for his time. He noticed a pair of large doors when turning a corner in the hall, he assumed that was it. He pulled the doors open and light started to fill his sight, almost blinding.

When Chihiro's eyes had adjusted to the light, he found himself standing in a large room with a treestuff floor, he saw loads of HiveWings gathered here. "THERE YOU ARE!" Said a voice suddenly, Chihiro yelped as a taller, red and orange HiveWing leaped in front of him. He wore several pouches and had brown eyes, his horns were a dark grey just like Chihiro's. "H-Hi?" Chihiro stammered, looking into this strange HiveWing's eyes. "Is this the last student?" He said, looking at the other HiveWings. "No need to be a boss, Isopod." Said a smaller orange HiveWing, her eyes were a nice, warm yellow and her face was dappled with black freckles. "Whitefly." Isopod spat, his wings buzzing. *Wait a second,* Chihiro thought. *That's the HiveWing I saw scanning her ID with the guard!*

"I'm sure he's the last student." Whitefly said, her voice made Chihiro calmer in some sort of way. Isopod snorted and stomped away, Whitefly looked back at Chihiro and approached him. "Are you okay?" She said, grabbing his talons. "Er... Yeah!" Chihiro said, trying to smile without being awkward. "Sorry, he's awfully strict, he did that when I entered too." Whitefly said, letting go of Chihiro's talons and sitting down, tail over her talons. "Is he our teacher? Or one of them?" Chihiro asked her, Whitefly tapped her head. "No, just an awfully strict student, I bet he wants to be a principle though." She said. She looked back up at Chihiro and smiled again. "What's your name? I'm Whitefly." Chihiro's tail buzzed for a moment, he cleared his throat. "Chihiro." He said, looking embarrassed. "Strange name, but I like it!" Whitefly said, rummaging in her pouch for a second.

A few minutes later the teacher came in, she was a rusty orange colour with a black underbelly, her wing membranes had stripes on them. She wore spectacles and had pitch black talons with speckles by them. "ALL STUDENTS?" She called, her voice loud and clear. She cleared her throat and looked up again. "Isopod?" She said, a lot calmer. "HERE!" Isopod said, getting into a weird soldier-like position. "Chalcid?" She said. "Here!" Called a small looking HiveWing in the back, he looked a lot like the teacher himself. "Braconid?" The teacher called, looking up from her list. "H-Here..." Said a small, timid looking HiveWing in the back, she was as orange as a pumpkin. "Whitefly?" The teacher called again, looking around. "Here miss!" Whitefly called, waving. "Horntail?" The teacher called once again. "Horntail is absent miss." Said Chalcid from the back. The teacher grumbled something and looked back at her list. "Chihiro?" She called, looking up again. Chihiro was blasted with a sudden pulse of energy when he heard his name, he shot up from sitting. "Here miss!" He cried, waving. Chihiro sat back down when Niss No-Name issued the last name. "Fruitworm?" She said, tapping her list. "Here." Said a soft sounding voice, she was a medium sized HiveWing with a flower by her right horn, she also wore lots of flower-like accessories. "Everyone except Horntail, it seems." Said Miss No-Name, her wings twitching.

The teacher got everyone to line up, now she's pacing in front of them, inspecting her students. "I." She said, stopping. "Am Mrs Jerusalem, I will be your teacher for your time here." Said Jerusalem, flicking her tail. "Failing to acknowledge the rules with lead to... This." Right as she said this, a stinger popped out of her tail, everyone gasped except Isopod and Chalcid. "The stinger will sting, but it'll only paralyze you, then i'll put you onto our school's version of Misbehavers Way." Her stinger retracted, but most of the students were traumatised. "Class will start in 15 minutes." She said, striding out of the hall.

Chihiro is scared of his own teacher on the first day of school... Well, better not misbehave!

### Chapter three

15 minutes after the welcome activity in the hall, the students were immediately sent to class, Chihiro was absolutely TERRIFIED, he might get punished, but, as long as he stays on good behaviour, his teacher won't stab him... Right? Well, despite the 'bad vibes' she gives off, Jerusalem is actually a very fair and kind teacher, this started to shine through in the first lesson, which was history. Seriously? History as a first lesson? But as boring as it sounds, Chi actually really enjoyed it.

Whitefly groaned and rolled her eyes as the teacher rambled on about the Tree wars and LeafWings and stuff like that, Whitefly had been assigned the desk behind Chi, and she sometimes whispered into his ear about how boring the lesson was, but he didn't find them boring, in fact, he rather enjoyed history. Then, the teacher turned around, and asked a question, which was: "What happened with the tribes around the time of the tree wars?" Nobody answered, since they probably either didn't know or were too scared to stand up and speak. "If nobody answers, I WILL choose someone myself." Jerusalem hissed, flicking her long, prehensile tail menacingly.

Chihiro tried to sink in his seat, so he wasn't chosen. The teacher scanned the students, looking for a worthy dragon to answer her question. "Chihiro!" Exclaimed Jerusalem, Chi yelped in surprise, he wasn't quite used to other dragons apart from his family to randomly shout his name when he isn't expecting it. "Please answer my question." The teacher grinned, as he walked to the front of the classroom, he thought that the teacher would stab him once he stands next to her, that thought made him shudder, and he tried to think about the positive.

Whitefly made a look of pain as Chihiro stopped next to the teacher, and the hybrid gulped, noticing that the teacher was staring right at him. "U-Uh..." He tried to think for a moment, he knew what happened after the tree wars, his parents taught him about it, but his brain decided to not work properly today. Suddenly, the thought hit him, like a bullet, he cleared his throat and spoke. "The SilkWing queen, Queen Monarch, stepped down from her position when Queen Wasp told her that in 'The Book of Clearsight', her tribe was meant to be ruled under her reign." Chihiro hoped that he hadn't failed miserably, and that the teacher would inject venom into his heart.

"Well done, Chihiro." Jerusalem said, clapping. "I'll give this to you as a reward." The teacher stepped forward, then stuck a little, gold star on Chi's chest, THAT was a moment where this small hybrid had felt proud.
