Chapter 7: An Icy Encounter

Aurora and Luna landed on a snowy field that was covered in ice. 

¨Winterfrost should be here.¨ Sunburst said. 

¨Well, I don't see anyone.¨ Aurora said looking around

“What are you doing here?” A voice said from behind them. 

Aurora spun around to see a man with white hair, and light green eyes wearing a white jacket with a diamond like pattern on it from behind her. 

¨Hey, I´m Aurora the Sun Shanoi and this is Sunburst, Luna, and Nightfly, Leo and Wave. We were looking for Winterfrost. Do you know him?¨

Looking more closely she saw his arm was wounded. ¨I can heal you if you want.¨ She said, outstretching  her hand. 

“Samui. Healing would be appreciated, thanks.” He said, accepting the handshake. 

¨Alright, first things first, do you know a place somewhere out of the wind?¨

“I have a place. Follow me. It shouldn’t be too far from here.” 

Aurora nodded, and gestured for Sunburst  Luna and Nightfly and  Leo and Wave to stay where they were.  She followed him to a nearby cave in the side of a mountain. She looked around and saw a rock that was good enough to be a chair. ¨Sit down on that.¨

Samui nodded, and sat on the rock after dusting it off. “Thank you, but why help me?” 

Aurora sighed softly and then smiled. ¨Because… well I like helping people and you're injured.¨ 

“Hmm. I see. I guess I’ll trust you for now.” Samui then shows Aurora the wound, allowing her to inspect it. 

¨Hm, you haven't any idea how to treat this, do you Samui?¨ 

“Not really. Treating wounds isn’t my specialty.” 

¨No worries. I can heal this easily. Put your arm near me and hold it steady.¨ She instructed him. After a moment of hesitation, Samui follows her instructions.  She notices his hesitation and says. ¨It's okay, I know what I'm doing.¨ She then held out her hand over his wound and a golden light came from her hand and slowly to Samui´s surprise it began to close and finally all that was left was a small scar. 

“How did you do that?” Samui said as he moved his arm around and felt almost no pain from it 

¨Does it feel okay? Should be fully healed now.¨ She asked. 

“It feels fine, thanks.” 

¨No problem, to answer your question I have the elemental control of light, I mastered the ability to heal others with it a long time ago. Also if I´m right your WinterFrost´s rider right?¨ 

“Hmm. Light magic has its benefits I guess. To answer your question, yes. I’m Winterfrost’s rider. Do you need something from him?” 

¨Not need. All the riders are destined to save the other dragons from a evil man, we need your help please join us.¨ 

      Samui stands up, and looks at Aurora for a moment. “I’m grateful to you for healing me, but I need more information on who this evil man is, and how he can threaten the dragons before I decide to join you on this journey.” 

    "He will  drain their powers and then kill the dragons Samui. We need you to join, he will come for you eventually. I guess if you don't care about any other dragons or people you can stay." Aurora said pointedly, turning to leave.

   “Usually, I wouldn’t get involved, but if this guy is indeed capable of draining dragons of their powers, then it’s better to deal with him sooner rather than later.” Samui stands up and starts to follow Aurora.

¨Samui stop. If you want to work with us then you´re gonna need to learn to be a bit kinder.¨ She stepped out into the snow and drew her Shakri and traced a line in the snow. ¨Step over this, and you´re a part of the team no take backs. You don´t then we can´t help you your choice.¨

“Kindness has never really been my specialty, but my home is still important to me. I’ll join.” Samui then steps over the line. 

¨Good, now let's go meet the team.¨Aurora gestures for him to follow her and then they go back to where Luna and Nightly and Leo and Wave are waiting. 

Samui sighs under his breath as he follows Aurora. 


      Leo and Luna are laughing and goofing off when they arrive. ¨Guys knock it off or I'll send you both back to where you came from.¨Aurora states glaring at them. ¨Samui, this is my team sorry their being kind of idiots right now.¨  

¨Hey!¨ Luna and Leo simultaneously yell.  

¨Well you were now introduce yourselves properly.¨ 

¨Hey, I´m Leo Shanoi of Wave, the emissary of Water and elemental wielder of water.¨ Leo says stepping up beside Aurora, his hair all messed up and he looks disheveled. 

¨Hello, I am Luna Shanoi of Nightfly emissary of the moon and elemental wielder  of the moon element.¨ She too steps up but looks more dignified. 

¨Samui. Winterfrost’s my Emissary, and Ice is my element.” 

¨Samui, where is Winterfrost?¨ Aurora asked. ¨Sorry Sunburst asked me.¨

  “Not sure. I don’t keep tabs on him at all times, but I’ll summon him if that’s what you need.¨ 

¨We travel on them most of the time so yes I mean also it is better he´s with us just so he doesn't get y´know ambushed or whatever.¨ 

“I see your point. I’ll summon him then.” Samui then reaches into his pockets and pulls out a small drum. He then looks on the ground for a moment, and pulls up an icicle, and bangs the drum three times with it.  

A massive block of ice appeared behind where Samui was standing. The block then broke open like an egg to reveal the dragon of ice, Winterfrost. “What is it you want?” Winterfrost said to Samui

“Apparently, there's a person who steals dragon powers or something like that. We need to stick together for now.”

“Fine. I’ll hang out with you for now.”

Samui then looked back at Aurora. “He’s coming with us.” 

¨I never said he wasn't.¨ She replied
