Prologue[]
Fennec[]
I stretched my legs and stared down at the cold, clear water. A pale face stared back at me, with flecks of dirt all over and big red eyes that creeped everyone out. My eyes dropped down to my talons; I pulled my knees up to my chest.
Suddenly I felt sharp talons digging into my back. A moment later, a giant shove knocked me into the water. I tumbled through the water and swallowed about a gallon of water. A moment later I jumped up, sputtering water, and looked up to see three burly SandWings with viciously coiled tails glaring down at me.
I just sat there in stunned silence. My whole body ached and I felt like my ribs were going to break. I met their eyes and they stood there for a second.
A moment later, they started chuckling. Their chuckling turned into snickering, which turned into howling, until they were roaring with laughter. I shrank into the cold water, feeling like I wanted to disappear.
"Aww, are you gonna cry?" The tallest said mockingly. "Go back to the glaciers, IceWing!"
"Yeah, go home, frostsniffer!" Cried the one in the middle. He was the smallest of the three, yet the others looked to him as if he was the leader. "Nobody wants you here!"
"I'm a SandWing!" I yelled, holding back tears. I fought my way out of the water and swiped at him with my venomous tail as if to prove something.
The other two instantly leaped onto me, pinning me down. "You wanna play with us?" Hissed the tallest one, holding his tail to my throat. He ran it gently across my neck, chuckling.
