Lotus took a large breath, and swiftly climbed in, swimming into the academy

"There was some sort of battle here, I wanted to go down and check out the aftermath" Hibiscus told them

Hermes grinned at her. "Who was fighting who- and who won?" Carmine rolled her eyes.

"I think the more important question-" she shot a glare at him. "-Is if everyone is okay."

"Sand, Sky, and Icewings I'm pretty sure, the rain wings won" Hibiscus told them "everyone at the academy is alright, but a few dragons fighting died."

Permafrost snorted ice crystals, then hissed while Cometchaser tended to her blackened wing, a startling contrast against her shock-white scales. But the dragonet was strong, and dug her talons into the ground.

"Oh... that's terrible..." Carmine looked down, dragging her claws on the ground, wishing she could have helped instead of talking with her other Skywing friends.

"Yeah, it is..." Hibiscus shuffled her feet awkwardly, her beautiful orange scales beginning to turn a more blue/grayish color. "I'm heading back to my cave now, I'm part of the Jade Winglet, what about you guys?

"Oh, me too!" Carmine said, grinning slightly. "And so is Hermes here."

Permafrost tentatively stretched her wings. She bit her lip, and folded her left wing in again. She walked to the battlefield, leaning against Cometchaser, who seemed embarrassed. Suddenly Permafrost sceamed. "No!" She ran to a bleeding IceWing, barely alive. "Mother...."

"That's so cool!" Hibiscus said, shifting her scales red and orange, making herself look as close to Carmine as possible
