Synopsis
Sunny never thought he’d end up dealing with a dragon. A dragon and its egg. But this isn’t just about the egg—it’s about proving himself. Proving he’s not his younger brother’s shadow, maybe even earning the respect and love his parents hand out so easily to everyone but him. The plan’s simple (sort of): team up with the Ravenhood sisters—a group of scary, unusual girls who were also kidnapped with him and think they’re all that and more for saving him (spoiler: they guilt trip him into helping them, but Sunny's not stupid)—then find the egg, and ditch them before they realize he’s keeping it for himself, tame the dragon inside it to then present it in front of all High Society. Easy, right? Wrong. The journey’s a nightmare. Half the group can’t tell left from right or east from west, and the other half outright hates him(reasonably). Then there are the flying gargoyles(who love to eat ears for some reason),vampire minions(goblins) throwing live coconuts and bananas (yes, alive), and lost boys lurking in mud looking to pull people in just to have a teaparties with squid. And that's just the start. Things start to spiral when secrets bubble to the surface, allies revealed turn into enemies, and Sunny has to figure out who’s actually on his side. Suddenly, the egg isn’t the only thing that matters—he’s caught in the middle of betrayals, accusations, and spooks at every turn! When strangers show up, ready to strangle the truth out of him, and everyone’s convinced he’s a traitor, Sunny’s left with an impossible choice. Should he stick to the plan and risk losing the people he’s starting to care about—or throw everything away to protect them? Either way, he might lose. But maybe, just maybe, he’ll figure out who he really is along the way. (SpoilerAlert:he makes things much worse then they are).

Chapter 1 - Prologue.

Sunny at no time thought that his life would be ending so soon like this— at least not until he was at gunpoint with a total stranger muttering sweet nothings into his ear. 

"I've caught you now~Bunny~you can't run away anymore"~the creepy stranger murmured, his tone mocking and unnervingly ticklish. 

Shivers were sent down Sunny's spine, as threatening and bizarre a situation it was for a mage to find himself in, this stranger was weird, the wrong type of weird. The dangerous kind, it had to be Sunny's disguise that got him in this mess, a white puffy dress. Dressing as a girl was the only way for him to blend in with them, the sisters insisted,(unfortunately two other very poor boys fell prey to their tactics, now part of the sisterhood known as Kayla(Kai) and Liora(Leo)). They were having way too much fun with this, at his expense? But Now!? Now, this game of theirs was going to get him killed.

To die here, in this way, would be humiliating. A disgraceful death. So much for a name such as Sunny, which provided no sunshine whatsoever. To be killed the moment he decided to be brave for once in his life. The only moment he would probably be proud of no matter the outcome. The thing he stressed on day after day and night after night. Two things actually. But well, that didn't matter now. He didn't even get to be honest for the first time in forever.

Now even if someone did find his body and bury it, it'll be in this damn dress with strawberries on it. Which would look good on a girl,-cute even–but he wasn't a girl. He was sick of being ridiculed for looking like a girl, he just didn't age like those hags that the other children would become. Once he grows tall, they'll know. All the girls would run after him. 

This wasn't the time to be thinking about all that. His face was shoved against the wall, hands bound behind his back, the barrel of a gun pressed to his skull. He had to survive this. He had to! Panic clawed at him, Think, Sunny. Think. What could he do to escape? Was there even a way!? He couldn't scream(there's a voice losing potion down his throat). And he was basically immobilized. If only he could, he would have gone down like a man, at least, with honor, fist against face, leg up an arse. His swordsmanship teacher would have been proud.

All he ever wanted was to be loved. To make his parents proud. For once, to see his mother and father look at him the way they looked at his perfect younger brother. That was the dream—to feel happy,---to feel giddy, ---to finally know what it was like to take love and affection for granted. But turns out dreams stay dreams. Now, because of his stupidity, that dream was about to end before it even started–with a hole in his head.
