Fanfic Chapter 2: Sandquiver

Enjoy! Here is the story!


Sandquiver was confused. She had never seen another hybrid
before, especially not one working in the palace where she lived.
“Mother, why is there another hybrid here? Or is it a trybrid?”
Sandquiver asked.” It's a trybrid, thanks.” The dragon said in a
rude tone. “I know What job you can have, since you two are
getting along so well and are the same age, you can be her
friend. Keep her company, ya know?” “WHAT!!!” Sandquiver and
Raindrop shouted in union. “Why does she have to babysit me? I
know how to fight and protect myself; I do not need a
babysitter!” “I know you think that, but you might need one, plus
I cannot just leave this kind looking dragon out in a sandstorm
without any help and I am not going to put one of my subjects in
danger while trying to help her. So, she will be your
‘babysitter’ as you call it, I hope you two get along soon. Now
Sandquiver, please show Raindrop where she will be staying.” “But
mother-” Sandquiver started. “That is final.” Queen Arid said in
a stern voice that Queen Arid only used it when she was mad or
trying to end a conversation she did not want to hear any more
about. “Yes mother.” Sandquiver sighed. “Follow me.” Sandquiver
said to Raindrop and led her up four flights of stairs to an
empty room next to her own room. “Why did we take the stairs when
we could have just flown?” Raindrop said out of breath. “It's
good exercise for your legs.” Sandquiver said bluntly. “Any way
this is your room and...” Sandquiver trailed off. “Yes?” Raindrop
asked curiously. “And I am sorry for being a jerk towards you I
am just so used to mother not paying attention to me and she's so
busy she rarely ever does anymore so when I saw her paying more
attention to you then she ever does to me I-I got-” “jealous.”
Raindrop finished for Sandquiver. “Yeah...exactly. Do you forgive
me?” Sandquiver said nervously. “Yes of course I do it was Just a
small misunderstanding. I think the job the queen gave me will be
a lot easier for both of us.” Raindrop answers. “What hybrid are
you anyway?” Raindrop asks sounding very curious to know. “Oh
well I'm a sandwing icewing hybrid...kinda a bad hybrid to be
with the war and all...my dad was an icewing. He did not know he
had eggs until my mom told him, and he was furious he wanted my
egg to be smashed to bits without delay, so you know what side of
the war he is on now...the side that wants hybrids to die and not
exist.” Sandquiver explained. “So, what are your parents like?”
Sandquiver asked Raindrop. Raindrop zoned out; it looked as if
she were in deep thought. “Oh well, umm about that...” Raindrop
started. “AAAAAIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!!” A loud bloodcurdling scream
cut through the air. “WE ARE UNDER ATTACK DO NOT LET THE PRINCESS
GET HURT OR THE OTHER TRYBRID, RAINDROP!!!!!” Queen Arid shouts
at her guards.
