As Winter slowly opened his eyes, he saw it was still dark, but he could see the faint glow of the sun shining through the window opposite him. He rubbed the dust out of his eyes, before he remembered the events of last night. How Moon had collapsed and he remembered feeling nonchalant but also deep down somewhere, he felt...worried for her. No he didn't he was just kidding himself right? Then he remembered those strange words Moon had said, in some otherworldly voice while her eyes rolled into her head. They almost sounded like a prophecy. But that was most likely fake and was Moon trying to act like a "Mysterious Nightwing OOOOOOO".
Then he noticed that Moon was staring out another window, gazing at the stars. Hey scales blended into the dark so well he didn't even see her.
She looks kinda cute with that face on her. Winter saw Moon blush slightly but then wiped it off her face.
"Hey Winter. Whatcha doing awake so early." Moon asked him.
"Nothing, just got up earlier. Why are YOU awake?" Winter responded.
"Well, I guess we should get ready for school then" Moon sighed.
Winter agreed and they started to get their school supplies ready.
WARNING!!!:
TIMESKIP LIKE 2 hours. I know isn't worth a warning but I'll just quickly show a sequence between Flame and Moon like from the original fanfic, cause I liked that part and decided to include it.
Moon POV:
As Moon was carrying her book toward the next class, in which she was having a special maths lesson since she was in the top 7 and the teachers decided to make some a special maths winglet of the 7 best students at maths. She saw someone turn the corner, he had a horrible burn scar across his snout, and in surprise Moon tripped into him and dropped her books.
"S-sorry, I tripped." Moon stuttered, as she was trying to pick up her books.
"Yeah sure, stupid *@*$!% nightwing" The strange dragon growled at her.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
"In Fact I've been having a bad day and you just made a big mistake. I've been meaning to try this thing out." Flame snarled at her, while pinning her to the while with one set of talons.
He fished around in his pocket before pulling out a pouch, which had small black dusty cubes inside. He smiled at her menacingly and put on a small pouch on his other claws and crushed the cube in it. He then smeared it over her leg and Moon screamed a gut wrenching scream. He then said:
"My name is Flame and don't forget. If you mess with me again I'll use all of these on you. And don't you dare tell anyone about this." With that Flame left her sobbing on the floor, clutching her leg with pain.
Winter POV again.
As Winter was trying to find his next maths class, since he got lost he went down a random hallway, hoping to find someone to give him directions. Instead he found Moon crying on the floor, clutching her leg, which had something black on it, almost like coal dust. His instincts kicked in and he gently picked her up and took her to one of the underground caves, all the while she was writhing in pain.
He gently put her in a small lake and slowly as the dust washed off, she clutched her leg less hard and then focused on Winter.
"Th-thanks Winter. I owe you" Moon said to Winter, smiling but then wincing.
"Your Welcome. What was that black stuff and how did you get it on you.
Winter saw her hesitate before she said:
"His name is Flame. I accidentally bumped into him and he got angry so he pinned me to the wall and-and rubbed that stuff on me. It hurt so much" Moon said, shivering.
Winter felt rage boiling in his blood as he thought of the unfriendly Skywing. When he got that skywing he was going to pay. But Winter had no idea why he was this mad over the stupid nightwing girl.
Later they explained to the teachers that Moon had tripped and fallen and hurt herself by dislocating her leg. Then Winter had found her and helped her relocate it (don't know what it's called lol).
They went to a chemistry lesson next as they got there a little early they waited for the rest of their winglet. They saw that little beakers had been set up and about 8 different jars of things were at the front desk. Then the teacher and most of the winglet arrived, except for Carnellion, who they later learned had gotten detention. They were instructed to take specific amounts of different chemicals and mix them to create mini reactions. Unfortunately Winter had accidentally taken too much of one thing and mixed it with too little with another so nothing happened at first.
Then the mixture foamed and exploded, covering them both in yellow and green dust. Moon blinked at Winter and raised her eyebrows, while everyone else did the same, before they started laughing profusely, all of them falling to the floor, except Quibli, who was glaring at them. Winter frowned at his classmates before bursting out laughing.
Everyone, including Clay the teacher, was laughing (again except Qibli) but Moon and Winter were laughing the most, as they looked at each other looking like yellow-green bugs with their normal respective black and white colours mixed in.
