Chapter 1: Snowstorm

First day of school. Wow, I never thought that this day would come. It's so busy, dragons everywhere, some playing tag while others fly about searching for new friends. I mean, we all know each other, some more than others, but that doesn't mean we like each other. My parents didn't have enough gold to send me to the cross-continent school, I'm not sure if that's a good thing, so I'm stuck at the district school. The district school only includes a few neighbourhoods in a certain area, and I'm probably stuck at the worst one. At least I have my friend Lightning with me. I see her from across the school yard and run towards her shouting, "hey Lightning, it's me Snowstorm." Lightning looks over at me and squeals in joy. "I knew you wouldn't be late." She says. "Of course I wouldn't, I just wish I was." "Why?" She asks. "You know why, this is the worst school in all of the electric fields." "So, at least these kids here are dumb." "You don't know that, they're parents are probably poor like me." "Oh come on don't think negatively, these kids have just done really bad stuff which were dumb." "But I didn't do bad stuff." "I'm not helping am I." "Nope." "Well c'mon, let's go check our classes." She races over to a board outside and gestures for me to follow. I see her read her list and I can see in her eyes that she's sad." "What's wrong." I say while walking over. "Just look." She says pointing at a paper on the board. I read it and it says that all the classes will be split between boys and girls, so no boys in girls classes and no girls in boys classes. I kind of do a soft whimper realizing that me and Lightning won't be in the same class. She hears me and gives me a long sad hug. We both start crying silently into each other's shoulders. A teacher walks up to us and asks, "what's wrong?" Lightning speaks first, She always does, "me and Snowstorm can't be in the same class." "And whys that?" I speak up this time, "because it says that guys can't be in girls classes." "And I'm guessing that you're a guy right?" He asks while pointing at me." "Yes." I sigh. "I know this sucks, but it's best for everyone. This way the girls can get comfortable without guys bugging them." "I guess." "Okay, now you two had better get ready, the bells about to ring." We wave goodbye to the teacher as we grab our bags and fling them over our necks. We start walking towards the door as the bell rings to signal us inside. We wait for the bully's to head in first so we don't get shoved around." After entering the large wooden structure we went our ways to our separate classes. I first started with storm sensing while Lightning had flight strategies. I entered a large room filled with jars that contained a sample of each kind of storm.  I saw a few empty desks and walked over to one with kids that didn't look mean around it. After the last few dragonets filed in and sat down, the teacher called attendance. When the teacher called my name I raised a paw and said here. "Why are you named Snowstorm, it  isn't typically one used for a Stormfang." "I'm not sure really, I guess my parents just wanted to be rebels." "Okay then." The teacher then continued on with attendance. The first thing we did was get to know each other a little more, so we played some icebreakers. It wasn't all that boring, but when you have the worst kids in your school, things get bad fast. So instead we ended up staring at shatterproof jars for an hour. It was extremely boring, anything could be better. Second period was physical activity. There we played games like air-tag and hide and seek. Everyone forgot about me, which I think is a good thing. Especially when you can see how rough they are in the air. I had found a few other dragonets hiding in the trees and decided to hang out with them for a bit. And guess what, they actually let me play. So we played our own game of ground tag, so the others wouldn't see us and tackle us. There was 5 of us all together. The other four were named Shock, Squall, Rain, and Thunder. I learned that Thunder was Lightnings cousin, and that Rain and Squall were twins. I also learned that they were in the same situation as me, poor. At least I have a few new friends in my class. I know that we have lunch in a few periods so I'm excited about that. I can't wait to show Lightning my new friends.
