Tsunami was extremely worried for her friend.
No dragon had been able to harm Glory that much for her to possibly die.

No one.

Who had done this?

No words could explain how much she wanted tear up Pyrrhia right now.

Sure, they fought most of the time over stupid things. But that was how they showed their affection to each other.

After all, they hadn't known any better under the mountain. Kestrel and Dune weren't really the best definition for parents, or even guardians.

The blue Seawing was currently pacing inside her guest hut. To the point where she was leaving scratches on the floor.

She was deep in thought, which Glory would have told her that it didn't happen often.

"Aghhhh!"

You just had to do that Glory, didn't you?

What did you do?

All those things she had said when Deathbringer was there, they were words that she had spoken to keep everyone calm.

But mainly, they were to reassure herself.

Glory had to be fine right?

If she passed away, Tsunami swore she would find a way to bring her back and kill the queen herself.

The Seawing princess gave a long quiet sigh, and sat down on her haunches in a 'I give up way'.

The huts in the rainforest had a hole as an entrance. Which meant that you could look out of it. And that was exactly what she did, she looked up at the stars.

Should I read the scroll?

What if we were only meant to read it when she died?

What will happen if she does...die?

What would she tell us?

Probably something like, "Aren't you supposed to be the strong one Tsunami? So much for being the warrior princess huh? You have to toughen up for the rest."

"Oh Glory, when I see you tomorrow you will have a lot of explaining to do."

The stars for some reason were glowing very brightly, they looked kind of... cheery.

And Tsunami hated it.

How could the stars be happy?

Did they know something?

I need to stop worrying and read the stupid scroll.

She carefully grabbed it, as if it were something poisonous.

"Here we go," she whispered to herself.

Tsunami,

You're not crying are you?
Look, I'm probably fine. I don't know what's happening or how you got the scroll, but I am sure about one thing.
You are the strongest dragon I know. You will be the only one of our friends to pull through almost immediately.
If they worry too much about me, just order them to find something that distracts them from me.
Who wouldn't listen to a member of the royal Seawing family right?
Be the bossy dragon everyone thinks you are and everything should be fine.
Not that hard is it?
Should I be dead, I want you to remember me as the dragon who made you better.
Because of course, queens always know best.
I'm kidding!
No, I want you to remember me not as the dragon who took your place and became queen. (You could be a great queen too, I mean, no offense to your mother but you are way better than her at bossing everyone around. Tip, don't leave your
guests in a flooding cave, especially when they are chained to the wall.)
Back to my heartbreaking letter, remember me as your best friend. As your opposite twin. As your family.
Tsunami, I may have never told you before but, I couldn't have asked for a better sister.
Under the mountain, I withstood more things that you guys ever knew.
I almost gave up more times than
I can count.
However, whenever I looked at you I
saw my base for the future.
You gave me hope Tsunami.
You gave me hope that I didn't have to be a Skywing to be better.
Without you I don't know what I would have done.
So in return, I have something for you too.
In the north edge of the rainforest, there is something you forgot.
You left the pearls your mom gave you here before we went to rescue the Rainwings.
Since you never came back for them I kept them safe.
The third tree at the edge has a chest hidden in the leaves.
Your pearls should be there.
Under the tree is also a giant pond deep enough for you to swim there.
It is the clearest and best freshwater pond in the rainforest.
I know it isn't much, but there is one more thing.
There should be a second scroll that comes with this one.
It is an official document that declares you second in command of the next ruler.
It's the least I could do for such a great friend.
Thank you Tsunami, and never forget how much I love you.

                    Your eternal sister,

                                  Glory

Of course Tsunami's heart was literally a pool of melted feelings right now. But new ideas were starting to form in her head.

The blue dragon couldn't stand it any longer.
How dumb could everyone be?

Glory had been badly hurt by who knows what, and they leave her alone with no guards!

I shouldn't sleep, not with her so defenseless.

So she took off and flew in the direction of the healer's hut, not wanting to wait for a certain Nightwing that had a thing for Glory.

***

Tsunami was right,there were no guards when she got there.

Rainwings and Nightwings are all the same, as lazy and dumb-headed as sloths she thought.

Her night vision proved to be very helpful, and she didn't like one bit what she was seeing.

She landed as stealthily as she could, not wanting to alert whatever it was that she had seen. She made sure to keep herself hidden in between the trees.

The figure she was watching was slowly creeping up to the entrance of the hut, and it didn't look very friendly.

I have to do something!

Tsunami sprang out out of the trees, and successfully blocked the path of the stalking figure.

She flashed her luminescent stripes as bright as she could make them shine, and noticed several things at once.

The dragon attacker was a young female Nightwing, and she had a long sharp blade in her talons...
