chapter 7

I walk through the forest I look around at the trees around me it was a beautiful day today.

I walk down to the beach and sit down on the warm sand and watched the waves as they came up to the beach and then return back to the sea.

I lay my head down. relaxing to watch the waves I could fall asleep watching the waves.

Though I would find that this would not be how I spent my day since  there were now a trio of Dragonets on me.

"Eva!!!" Fungus said happily from on top of my head.

"Can I get up please?" I ask.

I felt one of them get off. I Then saw Mallow in front of me

"Maple Fungus get off Evergreen!" Herb shouted.

Maple and Fungus jumped off me and ran into the forest.

"Why do they just want to run from me." Herb sighed.

"I don't know but Mallow stayed." I reply.

"Yea I stay I'ss good." Mallow agreed.

"Yes you did my little flower" Herb said and picked her up and nuzzling her.

Mallow was adorable like all Dragonets and she did try her best to say words right though sometimes failing.

"Is Mallow a fower?" Mallow asked.

"It is a Flower but also a kind of herb." Herb answered.

"So I is named aft a flower or is it a herb?" Mallow asked.

"All Rosewings are named after plants." I tell her.

"Oh..." Mallow replied.

Maple and Fungus poked their heads out of the forest.

"It's nots fun when yous don'tiy chase us." Maple said.

"Well I'm not chasing you right now." Herb replied.

"But daddy" Maple complained.

"No buts that's my answer I'm not chasing you." Herb said.

Maple began to whisper to Fungus, they then leapt at their father. Herb let out a yelp of surprise as he tumbled to the ground.

"Hahaha we beat daddy!" Fungus cheered.

Mallow looked like she was trying hard to do something...

Then I notice what it was, a vine slowly crept toward Fungus.

What a powerful Dragonet I myself wasn't able to move plants that young.

Though I did know one other Rosewing who had been able to move plants when he was that young and that Rosewing was well Lichen he is such a powerful young dragon, though he was wingless.

He was probably the most powerful Rosewing on Plaera.

And then I hear Fungus yelp as the vine shoved him off Herb.

"Evergreen did you do that?" Herb asked.

"I did! I did!" Mallow answered excitedly.

"What buts mommy said we aren't old enough to use its" Maple complained.

"I suppose Mallow just has a stronger power." Herb told Maple.

"Ands I Cans see throughs ve pants." Mallow stated happily.

"Herb I think I might know someone who could train Mallow in her stronger powers." I tell Herb.

"Oh that'll be helpful I'll bring Maple and Fungus home and I'll meet you in town." Herb said.

Later

I knock on Fern and Lichen's houses door.

Fern answered. "What do you misfit?" 

"First it's Evergreen not misfit and second I've came to see Lichen." I answer.

Lichen came up behind Fern.

"Yeah what do ya need?" Lichen asked. He fixed his gaze on me.

"Milkweed and Herbs dragonet Mallow has an really strong plant powers and we were wondering if you'd train her?" I reply

"And she's a plant seer." I add. "Or at least that's what she is claiming."

"Of course I'll help her with her power." Lichen replied.

"And how do you know that she has stronger powers?" Fern asked taking an step forward.

"You know how she is only a week old." I asked.

"Uh yeah I visited them the day after they hatched." Fern snapped.

"Yeah well she used a vine to shove Fungus." I answer.

"And Lichen started to grow plants around that same age." Fern replied.

"Yep." I nod.

I lead Lichen to where Herb was waiting.

Fern

Could I trust Herb to make sure Evergreen didn't harm Lichen and wait wasn't she his friend so she wouldn't do anything to him right?

I should do something to take my mind off it. Sometimes a Rosewing with powerful powers wasn't good taking what happened with my parents one had killed them when they were in a argument.

Since our powers could sometimes react with our emotions.

I watch as my parents argued with a Rosewing they called Ginger.

Ginger seemed to be a very powerful Rosewing and she wanted to take Lichen under her wing but her parents didn't trust her so they were arguing about it. I didn't fully understand I just all the yelling hurt my ears and scared me.

I see a glint of light yellow from the other side of the clearing. Lichen then came out.

His pale yellow eyes were shining in the sun light. Though a bit of lichen seemed to be growling over his eyes which was unusual see8ng as no dragons I knew had their plants grow over their eyes.

"Why can't I he is destined for greatness all plant seers and dragons of our tribe with powerful abilities are, we are chosen by our ancestors by Queen Lily herself" Ginger growls.

The new King king Ash was off dealing with some other problem so he couldn't break up this argument not this time.

Next thing I knew thorn branches were in here parents chests

I ran to Lichen as Ginger walked to him. I would not let anyone hurt him not now not ever.

"Quick Lichen run!" I call to my brother.

"Don't run I mean no threat little one." Ginger told him.

Though Lichen listened to me against Ginger and ran.

"You little ignorant dragonet" Ginger growled as she turned on me.

Ginger began to stalk towards me but then a vine shot up and grabbed Ginger by the neck choking her. Ginger began to gasp for air but the vine that was around her neck blocked it from getting to her lungs.

And Ginger fell to ground. She was...dead she must be.

A very scared looking Lichen walked back into the clearing he was trembling.

"I-I I killed her" he spoke his voice was soft and filled with fear.

"No the vine did" I tell him as ran and laid and wing on his back desperate to confort him.

"I....I sent the vine. I didn't want her to hurt you Fern" Lichen said .

That was why I didn't trust others alone with Lichen.

Lichen

I was teaching to young dragonet Mallow to do good with her power instead of evil to try and find ways to stop conflict without hurting others not like I had to Ginger.

"What has Lichen done with his power?" Mallow asked.

"Um......." I beian.

I begin to tremble as my mind made me relive that horrible memory.

"Yous don has to tell" Mallow told me.

"Oh thank the moon and the stars I wasn't sure how to tell that and I just want to forget it ever happened" I comment.

"Daddy what dose that mean?" Mallow asked.

"Thank the moon and the stars?" Mallow nodded. "It just means Lichen is happy he doesn't have to tell you." Herb answered.

"Oh so did you do something bad?" Mallow asked.

"Really bad." I answer.

"What's so bad about it?" Evergreen asked.

"I don't wanna talk about it." I respond.

"Let's not get distracted that we're trying to train Mallow with her powers not have an chat session. " Herb said.

"Right" Evergreen nodded.

I continue to train her with her powers she was amazing with it.

Once we were done Evergreen had already left and Herb was getting ready to head out.

"Herb wait." I say.

"Yeah?" Herb asked.

"You should teach Mallow to control her emotions because I knew a dragon who had there emotions flood out to hard and she....she killed dragons." Lichen replied.

"I will." Herb nodded

I turn and walk home.

"Your back how was Mallows training?" Fern asked as I come in.

"It went well." I answer.

Evergreen

"Hello Evergreen is there something you need?" Ash askes.

"I wanted to know why you formed the council?" I reply.

"Come inside I've got stuff to go with the story" Ash responds.

I follow him inside. He pulls out a few older looking files. And opened them to show me.

"I formed it because back then there were a lot more fights and this one especially is why." Ash said.

And he held out the report for me to take and read.

Three dragons were in a fight Flora Bracken and Ginger. All three of them died Flora and Bracken because of thorns stabbing them and Ginger chocked by a vine grown by another Rosewing most likely Bracken as revenge before he died.

"Three?" I ask.

"There's more to that one." Ash said. I read on.

It was noted that there were two dragonets there possibly the dragonets to Flora and Bracken. The dragonets names weren't noted.

"Those Poor dragonets lost their parents." I realize.

I think about what Lichen had told Mallow about the fact that strong abilities could be dangerous, could Lichen have had something to do with this? Was Ginger's death from Lichen?

"No one knows what exactly happened since the dragonets refuse to talk about it" Ash said.

"And they have good reason. Would you want to talk about your parents death." I comment.

"You are right on that Evergreen no one would." Ash nods.

"I wonder if Lichen had something to do with the deaths he had admitted he had done something really bad." I admit.

"Who knows maybe but let's just leave it in the past now." Ash replies.

"Alright Ash that was all I was really curious on today." I tell him.

"Then I'll see you next time you want to hear about something that happened in the past." Ash replied.

I leave his house.

I see Holly making her way to the house.

"Oh hello Evergreen what brings you to this side of the village?" Holly asked.

"I was just curious on something so I went to Ash cause he is the wisest dragon I know." I answer.

"You are not wrong Ash is very wise." Holly smiles.

An old hobby of mine was to make charm bracelets for myself and my friends

I was collecting clay to use in the beads for the bracelets.

I was focused on collecting the clay out of the river. So I was surprised when I felt an sharp pain in my tail.

I jumped and ended up falling in the river. I use my ability to wrap the river grass around my talons to stop from getting washed down the river.

I swam to the surface to see an scared looking Fungus. "Yous fell in." he comments.

I cough out a bit of water. "Yeah but I'm fine." I smile at him.

"Do you want to come in the waters nice." I offer holding out an talon.

"Na! It fast" Fungus answered.

"I can use this underwater grass to stop you being washed around." I offer.

Milkweed came out then. She gave me an quick smile.

"Yeah why don't we take a swim with Evergreen it'll mean you don't have to take a bath later" Milkweed suggested.

"Okay!" Fungus accepted.

And he leapt into the river where I catch him.

Letting them splash backwards and when me and Fungus got back to the surface Milkweed had gotten into the water with us.

The little dragonet began trying to swim towards Milkweed so I release him to swim to his mother making sure he wouldn't fall beneath the surface.

Milkweed grabbed him when he got to her. I swim down to the bottom of the river to collect the clay.

I swam up for air setting the stuff I had collected on the shore then I went back down under the water for more.

When I resurface again Fungus askes me. "What's Evea doesing?" Fungus asked.

"I'm getting clay for bracelets, would you like me to make you and your sisters some?" I ask.

"Yee! Yee!" Fungus responds.

"Then the next bracelets will be for you and your sisters." I smile while water rains from the vines atop my head.

"I'ss e Eveas friend yes yes" Fungus stated happily.

"Sounds like you made him quite happy and plus yesterday he asked if he was your friend" Milkweed comments.

"Aww that's sweet of course I'm your friend Fungus." I respond.

"Yay! Yay! Yay!" Fungus cheered. He seems to be quite happy to be friends with me.

~•-<☆>-•~

I am now working in my room on the charm bracelets for Fungus and his sisters

I feel something land on my shoulder I look over and see Windrider sitting there his pouch clearly had new things in it.

"Hello Evergreen." he greeted me.

"Hi." I greet him

"How are you doing today?" I ask.

"I'm doing well." Windrider nods.

He messed around with his pouch for a bit before pulling out a letter and gives it to me.

I open it up and dumped out the message and a new charm for my own bracelet technically bracelets now I was getting close to needing a new one to put the charms on. I read the letter. 

Hey there Ever the charms you gave us with the last letter were adorable so we made one for you and we saw some of your friends Lichen and Fern anyway hope you like this charm and your mother has only welcomed more brids to live here - your awesome father Leafstalk.

Such a sweet little message.

I grab a piece of paper and some ink and wrote down.

What would you think about us coming to visit sometime soon? - your amazing daughter Ever.

"Hey when your ready can you bring this to my parents please." I ask.

"Sure I can do it now" Windrider answered.  He took the letter and put it into his pouch then took off back out the window.

Windrider always insisted he could deal with putting the stuff into his pouch by himself he was very independent that way.

I go back to work on the charm bracelets. Doing a mushroom pattern for Fungus one a maple leaf pattern for well Maple and a flower design for Mallows charms each one unique. They are probably gonna be so excited when I give these to them I think happily.

I knock on the door. Herb came to get it.

"Hey Ever what brings you here?" Herb asked.

"I made something for your dragonets." I respond.

Herb turned back and called. "Fungus Mallow Maple come here please!"

Fungus was in the lead. "Ares the bracelets dones?" He asked tilting his head to the side.

"They are." I answer.

"Cools." Fungus comments.

"Yous neva said anything about bracelets." Maple grumbled.

"Because you and Mallow weren't there when I told Fungus." I reply.

"Oh...when?" Maple asked. The dragonets seemed to just have their little heads tilt when they are confused.

"Uh...Yesterday's" Fungus answered.

"Oh...so yous went outs with outs me" Maple grumbled. I hand them each their own bracelet

"It pretty" Maple said.

"Yeah theys are petty" Mallow agreed.

"Mine is the best" Fungus states lifting his head proudly.

"No mine is." Maple argued.

"There all the best how about that." Herb interrupted the argument.

"Waits can I take mine apart?" Fungus asked.

"Yep there charm bracelets there made to be taken apart so you can add more charms when you get them." I answer.

"Dose that mean I'ss can charm other dragons?" Fungus gave an smile.

"Hehe no" I answer.

"Oh....it's would makes since ifs they gav you char" Fungus said. A vine began to move toward Fungus

"Hey Mallow didn't I say no using your ability inside?" Herb asked Mallow. "Uh no." Mallow answered.

"Yes you dis." Fungus answered.

"So no moving plants inside" Herb ordered. 

Dragonets seemed to like to be mischievous the thought pops up in my brain.

"I think I'm going to head out now I just wanted to drop these off for you three bye." I say.

I walk back to the village. I hope we can head off to see my parents again soon.

I see Mushroom waiting on there porch with Windrider on his shoulder.
