When Darksmoke was about to enter the hunting den, she had a sudden inclination to look for Echopool and Fatewatcher to tell them where they were going. “Just a second.” She said to Sweet before turning around and bounding towards Echo. Her light mood was interrupted by the terrified expression on Echo’s face. Her eyes widened as she ran towards her. Gently she asked, “Are you ok?” She gently let her talon touch Echo and felt a flood of pain and fear enter her mind. (One of her powers is like a connection to dragonlets, instead of telling the future.) Her face became stout and she looked into Echo’s face. “Ok, I need you to calm down. Look at me. Yes like that. Take a deep breath with me ok?” Carefully she guided Echo away from the bustle of dragons and towards a quieter part of the library. “Sit.” She said in a commanding tone. When Echo was sat, she came closer and looked deep into Echo’s eyes. “You’re safe now from whatever vision you were having. I need you to take a few breaths before you pass out. I don’t care if you don’t want to tell me what it was about, but you need to calm down.” For a moment, panic filled her- what if this dragon figured out? What if she blabbed the secret out? What if, what if- no, she had to calm down, she knew she had too. So, she closed her eyes, and slowly breathed in. Then, out. She breathed in and out slowly, trying to regain the relaxation she'd had eariler She hated moments like this. it rarely happened, but whenever it did, it was because of a memory of the past. Even the faintest things seemed to trigger the memories, and sometimes, she wished she could forget. But, she felt herself getting more at ease as she breathed in, and eventally, she realized it was Darksmoke infront of her, one of her friends. She relaxed

"Are- are you okay?" At the sight of Echo freaking out Fatewatcher had put her book down a flew over, now darksmoke was with echo, "hello..?" She stared into the dragons eyes and studdied her futures, an odd one came to mind. Echo was yelling at a dragon name pool by the sound of the shouts, and then the next vision was that very dragon dead, in a pool of blood. I wonder why Echo would murder that dragon, why she hated her, or, will hate her..

> ))))) \\ She breathed out, "I'm fine, just a bad memory, thats all," she replied, her breathing calmer now. She had no need to worry about Pool now- she'd never see her again, after she had escaped. I hope not... she thought to herself, wondering what she'd do if she did have to see Pool again. 'what would I do, if she tried to make me hurt my friends?'

Darksmoke felt glad that her friend was calming down. She put her talon over hers and closed her eyes. Blood. Pain. Death. Crying. Misery. Control… Apricot and Muddy? Her eyes flew open again. Apricot and Muddy must have been the names of the dead dragons. Hmmm… Echo didn’t have it in her to kill, that much Smoke knew. So she tried again and was almost forced back by what she saw. It was a fully grown dragon, standing over Echo. Before she had been holding a plant and then Echo’s mind had become frantic. What if… no. There’s no way. But… but what if? She thought of animus powers. Her father was one, and at one point he had gone away so that a dragon could control him and use him as a weapon. She looked with astonishment at Echo. She put her mouth to her ear and whispered, “Echo. I know you didn’t kill them of your own will. So I ask you this, are you an animus?”

"Animus..?" Fatewatcher said in suprise, I knew there were others, at this school too, but I didn't expect one to be in my winglet, much less my dorm! Fatewatcher held off on announcing she was one to, "Darksmoke..? Do ou mind if perhaps just Echo and I talk? I know how much you want to bond with that hivewing over there," then in a more hushed voice, "I see a few futures where you live with her in a cozy home, happy, and worryless, even a adopted dragonet," Fatewatcher hoped her friend would leave, she wanted to talk to Echo one on one.

Darksmoke felt offended. Her tail lashed slightly and acidic bile rose in her mouth. Oh yeah. Like I wouldn't understand animus powers. I've felt them many times. But she said nothing. Her eyes glittered dangerously and the room felt colder, the shadows beginning to gather around her body. No. Not today; I just got here. No dark magic yet. She swallowed the bile and the chill left. Without another word she swept away from them towards Sweet. I will get answers, you can't hide from me for long. When she got to Sweet she put on a happy face and said, "Sorry for leaving. Tell me more about toads."

(oh no I just got on Darksmokes bad side didnt I?)
Fatewatcher winced at the sight of Darksmoke's grim face, I'll fix that later.. she thought before turning back to Echo and staring into her futures, studying each carfully, "Listen, I can tell your an animus, I am too, but please tell me whats wrong..? If you do- I tell you my secret- about, my wings," She had to choke out those last parts, but she needed to know what was wrong. Even if it costed her her friendship, she could see quite a few futures where she told her friends the story of her wings and they left her, fearful or discusted.

"She made me steal things with my animus powers... and then one day, some dragons came over to fight for the treasure, and get me out of there...." she shivered- this was the part she hated, the part she was afraid her friends would be fearful off. "so, she forced me to kill them. This went on for a few years, before I had the chance to escape,"

"Yeah she'll be fine." Smoke felt angry but she told herself that she could get answers later. Fate wasn’t trying to be mean. And how is she supposed to know about your knowledge of animus powers? She sighed out loud. It would all end up ok in the end she hoped.

BECOMES GRAMMERLY. *Types a paragraph epicly.*//
Sweet waited outside the door to the hunting center, her ears flattened to the back of her head. A hush fell over the room as dragons turned to stare. 'This was a mistake.' She murmured, staring back at the -what seemed like hundreds- eyes. In the blink of an eye a mob of dragonents surrounded Sweet, who looked more like a feral animal than a dragon. A Sandwing poked her wings and then froze. He stopped moving and fell on the floor, seemingly in some sort of coma. Panic spread through the surrounding dragons. A pink and yellow slikwing yelled, "They're all like Queen Wasp!' Sweet looked shocked as if she didn't know what she did. "Wait-" Her voice got drowned out by the panicking dragons. She slithered into the corner not locking eyes with any of the dragons, not even Darksmoke.

((HEHE TIME FOR A PROTECTIVE GF MOMENT))
Darksmoke had looked away for two seconds and all of a sudden Sweet had been swallowed up by dragonets. She snarled at them and shoved them away from Sweet and covered her with her large black wings. She let out some regular smoke, not the type that would kill, and backed up while the confused dragonets were coughing on it. She led Sweet out of the hunting center and was still snarling about the dragonlets and wasn't paying attention to how scary she looked at the moment. Her acid was pooling in her mouth and it dripped from her fangs. Smoke was still oozing from her nose and her wings were spread. Regular smoke hurt like a beech and so she was breathing hoarsely. Eventually she saw the scared look on Sweet's face and came to. How DARE they scare Sweet? HOW DARETHEM. But she forced herself to relax and tried in vain to keep the acid from dripping from her mouth. Eventually when she had composed herself, she turned to Sweet and asked in a low voice, fire in her eyes, "Are you ok? Did they hurt you?"

'Me? I'm fine...? Is that sandwing okay though?' She studied her tail, curving her talon against the edge of what seemed like a stinger. 'Oh my Clearsight, I have a tail stinger.' Instead or being proud of her new found power, she looked fearful at what she could do with it. Her mother told her that Queen Wasp had a tail stinger, is she just like h- Sweet kept shutting thoughts down.

Darksmoke looked at back at the Sandwing who was now seeming to come to. She glared at him in contempt. "He'll be fine. Hope he learned not to touch others without asking." Her eyes softened at the scared look on Sweet's face. "You didn't kill him, just stunned him that's all. If you'd like I can find some books on Hivewing stingers and we can head back to the den?" Without waiting for a reply she flapped her wings and soared over to the section on dragon anatomy. Quickly she found a few scrolls on Hivewings and then she grabbed one on animus powers before heading back to Sweet. This had already turned into an eventful day, and Darksmoke felt exhausted. With a few flaps of her wings, she was back at the dens. She dropped the Hivewing anatomy books onto Sweetenedhoney's ledge before returning to her own. Checking to make sure no one was in the room yet, she took out a small jar filled with small leaves. She put one in her mouth and felt the relief of her throat being soothed. They don't need to know about my meds. She put the jar back into her bag before turning around and slumping into the very back of the ledge and melting into the darkness. While she thought, she toyed with the shadows in the room. She twisted them into shapes and objects before seeing Sweet enter and stopping. She covered her face with her wing while she chewed rapidly on the leaf, trying to dispose of it before Sweet asked what she was doing.

She twitched her tail slightly, her wings buzzing pretty loudly. She forgot Darksmoke was even there. 'If Mom finds out what will she do?' She muttered to herself, sitting on her ledge and looking though her stuff. 'A note...?' She paused, Sweet sat back down, reading the note. She sighed, 'I'm so close to snapping. Mom wouldn't like it if I did, she's probably already found out and on her way to hunt me do-' She finally looked in Darksmoke's direction. 'Uh oh, how long have you been there?' She looked and sounded terrified. (Secrets?🤨)

With one last gulp, Darksmoke swallowed the med. Her throat still felt raw but it was considerably better. She gave a small yawn, and replied as though she hadn't heard anything. "Oh uh I've been here for a minute, why do you ask?" She casually let her wing slide from her face to her side again and hoped Sweet wouldn't ask why she had been covering her face. Although she seems too preoccupied with her own secrets at the moment...

(Hehe secret buddies.) '...Okay.' She sounded skeptical but didn't show it on her face. 'You look like you have something you want to tell me.' (I had a stroke reading that tbh-) She narrowed her eyes. 'You don't have to tell me,' Although I want to know. She added silently. 'Maybe we can exchange secrets? I don't mind.' Her eyes took in every inch of the nightwing's pretty scales, and went back to her 'normal' behavior. 'Ooo! your wings are pretty!' (Talk about mood swings. ) She smiled. She had acted like nothing had happened but there was a weird look in her eyes.

Darksmoke looked uncomfortably at Sweet. “Thanks for the compliment. They’re not nearly as pretty as others wings but they get the job done.” She looked slyly at her as she said, “And what secrets do you have to tell?”

(my computer just had a seizure XD) 'Hm, that what you know me as isn't really my normal self... and that my mother's a physco, like she's insane.' She made a bored expression, looking at her tail stinger in deep thought.

Tw: mention of self harm and a killing “Ok well I also have a insane parent, he brutally killed my mom, the only reason I was able to escape him was because I wrote a suicide note saying I had killed myself so I could leave, and I collect rocks because it was my mom’s hobby and it’s the only connection I have to her.” She looked curiously at Sweet. “What’s your real personality then, if the one you’ve been using is fake?”

If you do- I tell you my secret- about, my wings," She had to choke out those last parts, but she needed to know what was wrong.

"so, she forced me to kill them. This went on for a few years, before I had the chance to escape," "No no, its only fair I tell you my secret too, even if you hate me for it," Fatewatcher dipped her head sadly, "I understand, but you cannot blame yourself for that, you blame your mother," Guess I know what that vision was all about now, she thinks she'll never see her mother again, if only she knew. "I guess its time for my story now.." Fatewatcher looked back up at Echo, "A long bit ago, before I went back to the sky kingdom, my mother and I had just moved to a new city, the 18th spot we lived in. There were many other dragonets there, one of them became my best friend. But there was also a group of purebreed icewings, so full of themselves, my friend, who was a rainwing silkwing hybrid, hated them, because they would always bully us. The main way they got to me was my wings, I was abused because of how my wings looked, eventually, my friend and I were done with them. We went to go confront the 5 other dragonets and they straight up attacked, Iris, my friend, didn't have enough time to react, she slit one of their necks and killed them, we were both horified but that just made the icewings fight harder.. Iris was killed," Tears were now forming in Fatewatcher's eyes, "Then out of pure anger I killed the one who lead them, with animus magic. After that they ran off, scared, I should of seen it coming, but a lot of futures are blurred for me- I could have save Iris if my stupid future sight was working! I should have left her out of it!" Fatewatcher buried her head in her talons, it felt good to let out all her anger, but it devastated her too..

Of course, there was one crucial thing that Darksmoke wasn’t saying, but that… that was different. Why would they need to know? She swallowed hard after speaking, waiting for Sweet to answer her last question.
