Prologue:
How can a Firescales have a normal life? Well, okay, maybe not a normal life, but as close to normal as possible? That's the question she pondered in her cave, day and night and in between. Nameless, abandoned, and lonely, she had become sour and sulky. She deserved better. She needed better. Excitement, that's what she wanted. And if she couldn't find any... She'd just have to make some. She grinned crookedly and laughed.

Chapter one: What to do?
Peril woke up early and yawned, stretching herself and wringing her tail out to rid herself of sleepiness. She gathered up her supplies (which Turtle enchanted to be fireproof) and hurried off to class. I have healing first, she thought to herself as she veered towards the health cave. As she sat down, she noticed that Auburn, the new MudWing, was acting twitchy. Like, really twitchy. She had recently befriended Auburn, and so Peril knew that this was strange, especially since Healing was her favorite class. Later, at Lunchtime, she asked what was wrong. Auburn was born in a blood red egg, so when she started trembling Peril pulled her in for a hug.
"Hey, it's okay, you can tell me what's wrong and we can talk to the staff and they'll fix it. It's okay." Auburn was sobbing now, and Peril took her into a corner so that people would stop staring. Auburn looked up at Peril, eyes watering.
"He t-told me not to— not to tell anyone. He said he'd h-hurt me." Peril tilted her head to the side, confused.
"Wait— tell anyone what? Who? What happened? Auburn, are you okay?" Auburn buried her head in her knees, shaking.
"Peril... I— I'm with an egg."
