The Finding of Scroll

chapter 8

The Nightwings leg twitched and his face showed pain. I'm ok. I'm ok. He thought as he started to lean up. "If I were you, I would not sit up," Gator said sassily. The Nightwing rolled his eyes. Stupid rainwings.

 "Hey, Rainwings just saved you, without them, you would have died so give them some respect." The Nightwing and Gator both stared at him.

"I-I never said anything." The Nightwing said concerned.

"Oh. uhh, sorry I thought you did." Scroll suddenly started to blush and his heart started to pound. Gator rolled her eyes as she got up and walked over to the bucket with the cloth. She took it out of the liquid and rung it out so it was not soaked.

"This might sting now that you are conscious," Gator said with a smile. She laid the cloth over the cut and there was a sizzling noise as the Nightwing started to flail his wings and try to stand up. Scroll lunged himself at the spazzing dragon and tried to hold him down but because of the weight difference, Scroll got lunged at the curtain and rip through it.

Scroll looked over at the other curtain which slide open and the seawing that was sleeping on the floor walked out rubbing her eyes. "What's all the racket for?" Then she looked down at Scroll and sighed. The seawing was almost as big as the hurt Nightwing, She rolled her eyes and walked past Scroll who hit his head hard and was trying to rub a building headache away. She moved the broken curtain and placed one claw on the Nightwing's chest and head. She then used her tail to clamp down the wing on the top side so he would stop hitting Gator with it. Scroll got up and looked into the room. Idiot the seawing thought with a shake of her head.

The sizing soon stopped and all the black goo looking stuff started to look redder instead black. Scroll took a chair from a different room and sat down watching the Nightwing breath heavily. Scroll new he was sleeping but it seemed like he had no dreams. Like he was unconscious again. Every now and then Scroll decided to tap his snout and he would try to wake him up. Scroll still could not dig into other dragons memories like what mind reading dragons can supposedly do so he had no idea who the Nightwing was. He could hear some of the Rainwing above them dreaming about food, some of the younger dragonets were dreaming about winning vein races or playing hide and seek. Not one Rainwing was having a nightmare or a bad dream and they all gave off a positive feeling making him a lot more relaxed. He then closed his eyes for a moment. 

Scroll sighed and remembered just how many bad dreams he use to have and still has. He looked over at Gator and noticed she was not there, or she was just hiding? "Gator?" Scroll asked. "Gaaaator are you here?" Scroll got up and stretched out his back and wings. Then he started to trot around the room to see if he would bump into her. She left. You fell asleep. Scroll's mind picked up a loud voice. He looked around but the only other dragon in the room with Scroll was the Nightwing.

"Yeah, I'm awake," he said in a deep voice. 

The Nightwing's blood red eyes were staring at Scroll. He jumped back and hit his tail against the wall. "Oh." Scroll said shakily. 

"Hah! Did I scare you?" he said with a laugh

"Uhh. um no." Scroll said as he rolled his shoulders and shook out his wings.

"Yes, yes I did." The Nightwing then smiled and started to sit up. "He better not tell me that I should not get up..." Scroll nodded and pulled over a chair. "

"So." Scroll said as he looked around.

"Question time?" The Nightwing asked. Scroll noded. "Ok, I know you're going to ask my name, my name is Stab. Full name's Stab Dark." Stab screeched his arms and wings then looked down at his leg and gave it a worried look. That Rainwing will fix it up later... ugh how can I be so stupid. He thought as he made eye contact with Scroll again. Something was different thou.

"Your name's Stab? Like when you take a knife and go "stabby stabby?" Scroll asked The dragon nodded but Scroll could feel something was not right.

"What?" Stab looked concerned and slightly surprised. then his mind said a few different sentences and Scrolls expression went mad when he heard that the Nightwing was lying about his own identity.

"Don't lie to me Dagger..."
