Tvaylin looked up at his mother's praise and tilted his head in curiosity before speaking once again, "Why are you sending me away if I'm so blessed then?" he asked not in anger but in seeking knowledge. "Whats training?" he suddenly asked rapid-firing the questions one after another towards his mother.
Lady SilverFang's eyes went wide, she had underestimated just how much her son could comprehend of the meeting she had, " Because you are blessed I am able to give you the opportunity to train with mighty dragons and become stronger in the process, that is why I think you are blessed, as too your other question, training is like gaining fighting experience but without having to kill, its to teach you how to use your strength properly." she said to the hatchling.
Tvaylin started to think hard about his mother's words, when she said he could train with mighty dragons his heart beat a little bit faster, as the blood quickened in his veins, just like his dream maybe he could see real legends! Thoughts of fighting like in his dream, the ability to win fed into his ambition as his fighting spirit exploded and he snapped his attention back to his mother, "I want to train! But first, im going to eat!" he said proudly as he galloped back to the scraps he had leftover from his last meal with great enthusiasm.
Seeing her son act in such a way she snorted to herself "he is still just a hatchling, a very special hatchling but still just a hatchling." she said as she went and gathered his sisters, they would be his wrestling mates, she would force him to fight them all off at the same time.
Lady SilverFang believed in experience by doing, she would stop any of her children from getting seriously wounded, but now with so much at stake she couldn't be soft, she would train her son as best as she could for the trials to come was anything but small.
Tvaylin rushed back to his mother to begin training but when he arrived he noticed his 4 sisters close to where the dragon had rested her huge foreclaws and so he hissed in annoyance, "why them too?" he asked in confusion
Lady SilverFang gave a warning look towards Tvaylin at his directness, it was so direct as to almost be rude, "They will be your training partners, I am much too big to teach you how to fight but I can explain much and have your sisters demonstrate real attacks, for now, let's start with something simple, are you hungry Tvaylin?" she asked as a callous smile crested her face.
Tvaylin's face dropped when he realized what his mother meant before she dropped a large cow in between him and his sisters before she spoke out, "If you want to eat then you must earn it, the only food any of you will receive you must fight over!"
Tvaylin understood what his mother meant so he instantly started to sprint towards the cow. Seeing their brother charging at the only food left in the clutch cave the 4 female dragons scrambled towards the meat, if they made it before Tvaylin then they had a chance to fight him off.
Tvaylin snarled as his sisters made it to the cow before he did and they jumped over it to intercept him before he could make it to the prize, last time he had been able to just pushed them out of the way but this time it felt different, his dreams of the powerful dragon flashed to mind once again and he immediately roared aloud with all his might at his sisters, he would not back down, he was going to be a powerful dragon one day, he just knew it so with his fighting spirit high he jumped into his sisters he remembered where that copper dragon had held the smaller black dragon and he tried to imitate it on his smallest sibling Drestia.
First, he crashed into her chest sending her backwards, as she was unbalanced Tvaylin smashed his head into her side pushing her onto her back, after that he reached out with his claw like the copper dragon did to the little black dragon in his dreams but Tvaylin remembered that the copper dragon had also been attacked and that's when he jumped off his sister backwards as the other 3 sisters pounced on where he had been.
Drestia hadn't been hurt but it was still startling that Tvaylin would go after the weakest first, his instincts urged him to even out the fight as soon as possible and that led to his aggressive stance, now that the 4 of them were coordinating together again they stood shoulder to shoulder between the meat and him.
Tvaylin had just stood back cautiously as his sisters got their act together, he was thinking about why he had to defeat his sisters, he was only told that if he wanted to eat he had to earn it! So why was he fighting, he should be eating!
Tvaylin relaxed at the realization, he didn't have to fight against all his sisters at the same time, he only had to get to the meat and he could eat, of course, his sisters wouldn't just let him eat whatever he wanted so he would have to fight but now he had an idea other than a straight-up frontal assault.
Tvaylin's sisters became suspicious as they saw the keep intellect shine in their brother's eyes, they tensed up when they saw Tvaylin relax his whole body, now they were very worried, he never relaxed like this is any of the squabbles the hatchlings had had before. He was planning something and it didn't bode well for them if he was able to succeed in whatever plan his mind could come up with,
