She then hung her art up on the stone walls behind her. Each portrait told a story.

He flew back to the spot where Sandstorm and he had met, and uncovered the sand. Under there was a small purple flower. Maybe it's Sandstorm's. He thought, then decided to give it to her tomorrow, as he didn't know where she lived. Shift carefully dug the flower out and flew back home, where he put the flower in an unused box.

She looked at the art wall with a proud expression on her face. She then turned to the back door that lead to her room. She opened the door and walked inside.

Shift heard Mom's thoughts. Okay dinner is ready. He bounded out the tent to see a fire with a pot over it. His mother and father were looking expectantly at him. about time, he heard their minds

She lay down on her camel fur bed and started to eat some fried lizards on a stick. As she chewed, her brain wandered off and thought about that male dragon, *what was his name again?* she thought *oh yes, Shift* once she was done eating she cleared out the left overs and took off her necklace. She then crawled into bed and fell into a deep sleep.

After eating dinner Shift was told to go to sleep. He was starting towards his bed when he heard Sandstorms thoughts again. Huh? He was confused, then realized she must have taken off her necklace, having to go to sleep

She dreamt of her sister, Shadow. Her huge green eyes and her purplish black scales. She always loved helping other dragons, She never wanted a dragon to go hungry. She would go around the town handing out free camels to every dragon she met that looked starved. Sandstorm smiled at these memories, she wanted to live up to her sisters legacy.

He saw a dragon with purplish black scales and green eyes, helping out other dragons, handing out free camels to dragons. He felt Sandstorm's happiness and smiled, happy that at least there was something keeping her going. Shift lay down on his bed and fell asleep immediately.

She woke up the next morning when she heard a knock on her door. She got up and opened it. It was Sixclaws, "G'morning Sandy!" He said with a grin. "G'morning Sixclaws, what are the queens orders this fine morning?" Sixclaws smiled "you are put on door to door duty." Sandstorm sighed "ok, sounds good." Sixclaws nodded and took off. She put on her necklace and took off towards the city.

Shift woke up. he looked around and got out of his bed, yawning. he then noticed that the purple flower and the sand in the box. looking inside, he only found some drops of water. Hmm, weird, he thought
