She gasped. "Really? Well, go tell the rest of the dragons and Fintsmoke and Gaia!" she hurried him.
"Already half done!" he proudly exclaimed. She nodded to him and hurried off to see the new hatchling born. The snow swirled around her, piercing wind making her shiver.
At least the Egg Cave will be warm she thought happily, blowing some of her fire-breath to heat the air around her. The snow glistened in the sun when she stepped into the cave.
"Ahhh, it's like heat-season again!" Elysia heard Elena sigh happily. Soon, all the dragons had gathered to see "Star", what Saphira had named the egg, hatch. Whispers could be heard echoing, but when a steady cracking filled the air, it was like death had silenced the world.
A baby she-dragon's head popped from the crack, sending pieces of shell flying. The dragons cheered...but then, a feathered wings emerged, followed by the second. Every dragon looked in wonder, confused.
"She's odd, but she's mine...now get along so she can feed!" Saphira snapped. All the dragons hurried away, they knew not to mess with Saphira in that state.
I remember...that vision. The fiery bird had feathered wings exactly like Star's Elysia thought, taking off into blizzard-like skies to think.
[The post is late for the time. Star hatched the night of the full lunar eclipse/winter solstice...
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!]
