Pine had been the on who shuttered, he had found Star and had been looking for Buggy and Moon when he had simply heard them inside the old cage where the royals where being kept. After seeing that fight he felt bad the Night Watchers had no chance in that fight. The dragons on this rim where actually quite weak, and also had not many in numbers. The other Water Wind Dragons and Light Winged dragons flew with each other with such numbers they had covered the moon and the stars. It had been terrible. Horrid.
A warm claw reassured him. It was Buggy he wasn't smiling or saying something stupid and nice. He looked grim and scared, those expressions didn't fit Buggy well. Pine gulped in air.
" We need to leave. What if they come back. Like you said they'll kill Buggy and take the other three of us and enslave us more than the Night Watchers have. " Pine said looking up at the rising sun. He felt like he hadn't seen the sun in ages. The others, the new dragons, they had seemed to innocent. So friendly. He guessed this was one of many lessons not to trust other strange dragons. Especially royals.
" Good point. But where would we go? Were all exactly one year and a day old. It's not like we can fend for ourselves." Star said scratching the dirt with a claw. He hated so much to see his friends like this. He wanted, no. Needed them to be as helpful and resourceful as possible and it was hard to be those things being scared and tired out of your mind.
" Your both right. Very right. But we also have other dragons like us that are not enslaved maybe there are some nice Fuzzy Fox Dragons that would welcome us in. Or Emerald Eyed dragons that have a kingdom." Buggy said. Looking at his friends. When he looked at pine he cringed inwardly. Everything was going to be okay. Even if Buggy said that ' nice Emerald Eyed dragons ' was a thing.
" Right. Like there royals will welcome four brats in. " Star spat, tearing at a few leaves.
" Were all right again. But still, we need a place. Not here we need to get away. The tunnels are not an option for us. Not the sky because of Buggy..." Moon spoke for the first time. He looked beyond the training camp. "Let's go on foot. " Oh great. Pine thought and hated himself for it. It wasn't Buggy fault for not having wings, and no way they would leave him behind.
" On foot it is. " Pine said and done with the training camp walked in front of the four youngsters.

King Night Jewel
Two hours after camp invasion outskirts of the kingdom under threat
~~~~
The King. Midnight Jewel, had ruled his kingdom, his empire for nearly sixty years. Now after thirty years of cold blooded war with the Light Winged and the Water Winds the loss would be under his name. He was disappointed in himself. The training camp had been robbed not of supplies, but of every single young dragon that was there. Even his youngest Midnight. Now at his throne room with a petty little rug under his claws the king of the Night Watchers saw his loss. There was no use fighting he had lost. Like really.
" Well, the king does always have proper defences but oh, boy. You had maybe twenty-four. For an elite like me it was a mountain goat." A cold female voice said. He recognized it as a leader named ' Riptide'. She had once tried to make peace but had failed when he had knocked her ear off her head. No one saw it over the silly play helmet she wore.
" Still wearing children's toys I see. ugh I really hate to know that I have to kill little miss petty peacemaker." King Midnight Jewel said turning to face her. She was wearing a smirk.
