Shade was near Jade Mountain Academy alongside his cousin,Moonwatcher.Vigil and Secretkeeper were nearby.Shade hugged his father and didn't want to budge from the spot.He said,"I'm sure you'll make friends." Vigil thought,'I hope they won't ignore you,my little dragonet.' Shade whined,"I'm not a little dragonet anymore!Well,maybe a little but still!" Vigil said sternly yet caring,"Don't respond to the voices if they're in your head."(Later) Shade went to the Prey Center and almost immediately heard every thought.Then he saw a scavenger run.His cousin caught it.As he saw two IceWings head in their direction,he saw and heard the bigger IceWing say,"You have 10 seconds to give back my scavenger before I slice your face off."

"Shade what?ShadeBringer?ShadeVortex?ShadeTheDestroyer?" Shade said,"No,it's just Shade..." The female IceWing's expression softened upon her seeing Shade flinch so easily. (Later) Shade layed in his Winglet's room.He felt rather comfy next to his cousin.Then again,on cold nights in the rainforest the duo had huddled up to keep warm,so this was no different.Shade then had a nightmare.Dragons were burning to death all around him---and he could do nothing about it. (It's the same nightmare as Moon's) In the stillness,Shade felt calm---too calm.The voice from before said,"Little Shade and Little Moon...I've been keeping an eye on you two..."
