Orca the Seawing Princess and Violettearhummingbird the Rainwing

Please do not steal or copy, thanks! Enjoy.

Years and years ago before the dragonets of destiny… Orca (the Seawing princess) had just recently turned five, and was coming of age for marriage soon, and one day…

“Orca, go and assemble the morning council,” Queen Coral said. “Yes mother” She said. Then when she turned around. “Uhh, Hurricane…” “Hello Orca,” He smirked. Hurricane was a strong, handsome male, light navy or a dry blue Seawing. He didn't really care what anyone else thought, he had a big ego, thought everything revolved around him, and was basically a jerk. “Oh Hurricane you're here!” Queen Coral exclaimed. “Perfect timing! I need you to go and help Orca assemble the morning council,” She said. Hurricane looked over and smirked at Orca again. Orca glared. “He’ll make a wonderful king and husband someday…” Coral whispered over Orca's shoulder. Then they went to gather the council. Later that night… Orca had snuck out to go swimming in the Ocean. She looked up and saw a dragon flying above the water. Who is that? It doesn’t look like another Seawing… Orca thought. Why are they so close to the Summer palace? Maybe they’re a spy! Or maybe they're just a dragon passing through..? She questioned. “But if they were just a traveler, why would they be so close to the Palace? I have to stop them before they get any closer to the palace! Orca jetted out of the water and tackled the dragon onto the sand. “Who are you?! Why are you here?!” Orca exclaimed while holding the dragon pinned to the sand. “I- I’m just passing through, I promise!” he stammered with a couple small tears in his eyes. He looked up at her. He was a brown Rainwing with a couple blue, purple and turquoise scales all over. He looked about the same age as her.

He had a sweet face with a caring look in his eyes. Orca stood up off him and sat down in front of him in the sand. “I’m sorry, I thought you might have been a spy,” She said. “Who are you?” She asked. “V- Violettear… Violettear hummingbird,” he said. “But who are you?” He asked. “I’m Orca… Princess Orca of the Seawings,” She replied. His eyes dilated and he kneeled over. “My lady…” He said. Orca staggered back a step. He’s not a threat at all, he’s just a kind, good mannered Rainwing. I’m surprised. All I ever heard of Rainwings are always about how lazy and dumb they are, but he doesn’t seem like that at all… at least he has some self respect and actually seems to care about things. That’s more I can say for the Rainwings I’ve heard about, Orca thought. “I- I’m sorry I tackled you,” Orca said. He stood up and sat down in the sand. “So what are you doing this far out? It’s a long way from the Rainforest,” Orca said. “I- I’m running away,” Hummingbird said. “Why? Isn’t it great in the Rainforest? Plenty of fruit to eat, you can go anywhere you want, you don’t have to worry about the war…” Orca said. “Ya, but there are some serious things messed up with the Rainforest. The poisonous bugs, the monster taking the Rainwings… not having any parents…” he went on. “You don’t have any parents?” Orca asked. He shook his head. “The queens decided to mix the royal eggs with the rest of the tribe. And no one seems to care or notice if an egg or dragon goes missing. “That’s awful,” Orca said. I guess being a Rainwing isn’t that great after all, She thought. “So I ran away. I want to see the world. Besides it’s not like anyone will notice or care if I’m gone,” Hummingbird said. Orca felt bad for him. At least she had a family and a mother who loved her. Even if she did want Orca to marry Hurricane. “Well, you can stick around here for a while if you want. Just be sure to hide during the day so you don’t get caught by the royal guard or my mother,” Orca offered. “Shouldn’t be too hard,” He said as his scales changed colors. “Thank you,” Hummingbird smiled. “It’s getting late, I should head back to the Summer palace before Coral finds out,” Orca said as she began to take off. “Wait!” Hummingbird said from behind. “Will I ever see you again?” Hummingbird asked. “Of course. I’ll see you again tomorrow night,” Orca replied. Then she flew off back to the Summer palace.

Orca felt strange that night and couldn’t sleep much. She couldn’t stop thinking about Hummingbird and how there was just something about him that made her heart feel warm. But then the next morning…

“Yawwn” Orca stretched. She licked her lips and got up. She swam to the surface and flew up to the part of the pavilion where the morning council was held. “Good morning mother,” Orca said. “You missed the council this morning,” Queen Coral said. “Huh, didn’t realize I slept in that late, I couldn’t fall asleep all last night,” Orca said. “I tried getting you up but you were in a deep sleep. You kept on smiling and laughing in your sleep saying something that sounded like hummingbird. What were you dreaming about?” Coral asked. Orca gasped. Oh no She thought with fear. “N- Nothing,” Orca said, sweating. “I- I gotta go really quick,” Orca stammered. “Hm. Alright but be back soon,” Coral said. “Ok,” Orca took off and dove into the water. Phew, that was close, Orca thought with relief as she swam through the tunnel. She shot out of the water. And flew over to the beach where they met last night. “Hummingbird… Hummingbird!” Orca whispered. Woah! She tripped over something. Hummingbird appeared. She’d tripped over his tail. “Sorry about that Orca,” Hummingbird said. “Hummingbird!” Orca exclaimed.

They talked for the rest of the day. They talked a lot about running away, not wanting to marry Hurricane, the rainforest, and soon she told him how she was an animus and how she hid it from her mother. As the weeks went on they started to develop a strong friendship towards each other. They promised never to hide anything from each other. Soon… they fell in love. Orca kept on sneaking out every night. When she turned seven She carved him a two piece necklace of a hummingbird and an orca and enchanted it to protect him. She gave the orca piece to him.

“I- are you sure?” Humming bird asked as she handed it to him. She hugged him. “We’ll have many dragonets!” Hummingbird said. “They’ll be colorful little Seawings,” Orca started. “Or Rainwings with cute little webbed feet,” Hummingbird grinned. “We can run away together and raise our kids,” Orca said with a smile. “I have the perfect place we can live, it’s in the mountains perfectly in between the rainforest and the sea,” She said. They laughed and hugged each other.

But, being an animus… the more Orca used her power… the colder and darker she got. She started longing for the throne more than she had as a dragonet. She even carved an enchanted statue and dedicated it to the hatchery so it would kill off any heirs to the throne. Hummingbird became worried and tried to convince her otherwise.

“Orca… Im worried your loosinhg your soul…” Hummingbird said with fear. “Hah! I feel fine!” Orca said with a dry cold sounding voice. She sharpened a carved dagger. “Orca,” He put his talons over the dager and looked dead into her deep blue eyes. Instantly she snapped out of it and dropped the dagger. “Sob, sob” “I wont go dark. But I Am taking the throne,” Orca said. “But!.. Orca!” Hummingbird stammered. “If anything happens.. Ive hidden the egg somewhere in the summerpalace. If I die, take the egg and flee to the mountains,” Orca said. “Orca, I-” He started. Orca stopped him and kissed him. “Goodbye… Hummingbird,” Orca whispered. And then she flew off back to the Summer palace to take the throne. Hummingbird bent over in a sea of tears. “Good luck. Orca,”Hummingbird said.

Three days later: Orca was still alive. For now. Hummingbird knew, because he saw her flying around the summerpalace sometimes. But then… One day as hummingbird was sleeping…

“AAAAAAAAA” He heard the screaming. “Orca!” Hummingbird woke up with a fright. He felt the necklace vibrating. And then… It stopped. He felt the life drain from it. He heald it close to his heart, and he started to cry. He stood in the morning light. “At least I might still be able to save the egg…” He sniffed. “I have to save our egg,” “For Orca” He said with more determination. And he flew to the Summer palace.

Orca had only taken him to the Summer palace but he thought he could remember the way. He flew for an hour and then arrived at the palace.

“Wait! That must be it,” He said as he swooped down. He took a big inhale and then dove into the water. He swam through the tunnel as fast as he could. He started to feel tired. No! Gotta make it… He thought trying his best to stay awake. A moment later he shot up out of the water panting on the sand. He shook off the water and got his strength back. Now where did she hide the egg… wait! Whats that?” Hummingbird questioned. His necklace started glowing pointing down into the sand. He started digging. And soon he ucovered the egg. He grabbed it out of the sand. It was the colors of a Rainwing egg but the patterns on it were deep sea blue swirls. Now how can I escape? Where even is the exit? Even if I managed to find the tunnel again I would likely drown while Im down there… I barley made it back to the surface the first time without drowning and im not taking that risk again, Hummingbird thought. Without another moment to think, he started to fly up and up and up… until he burst through the canopy. It was still early morning enough that no one might have even noticed he was here. But then again, they were likely all in the deep palace watching the murder instead of being asleep. Hummingbird shivered. No one seemed to be fallowing him yet. He  held the egg in one hand and clutched his necklace with the other in grief. He cried a bit and then flew off tword the rainforest. He flied for an hour until he started to fly over the mountain tops. He looked down. “Wait. Whats that?” he thought. Looks like that tree has a big hole in the trunk,” he said as he flew down to take a closer look. It was a very old big blue oak tree with a strange hollowed out trunk.“Oh Wow!” Hummingbird exclaimed. The tree trunk led down into the mountain. The tree's roots were slightly dangling coming through the cave ceiling. There were a couple of scrolls and a treasure chest with nothing in it except a rolled up map of Pyria and a couple treasures in it. “Some other dragon must have lived here a couple years ago but it looks deserted now. Seems like no one has lived here for years.” he said. “It's perfect!” he exclaimed. But then, he dusted off the chest lock and… Orca… Humming bird relized. “This was the place Orca had prepared for us to live before she lost her soul and died,” Hummingbird relized. He took some leaves from the tree and made a small nest for the egg. There was also a carved out bed and a pillow. “I wish you were still here,Orca,” he thought. He dusted off the pillow and lied down to get some sleep.
