Pt. 8

                                    

                                          
Clip woke up, it was still night.. Mortis, Slug, and Urchin had crashed in her dorm for the night.
Clip glanced at Slug and Mortis. 
Slug was snoring loudly, but he was oddly adorable. Mortis, she made a bad choice going along with him.
She knew if she tried to run away he would somehow find her. And yet, does she consider him a friend? No. Merely someone who she has to tag along with.
The altulis shook her head and walked outside of the dorm. She curled up outside, gazing at the stars.
" you woke me up... " Clip heard Slug whine. Yawning the white dragon padded next to her. 
" You can go back to sleep, idiot. " Clip swished her tail.
" nahhh.... Whatcha doing? " Slug sat besides her.
" It's called stargazing. "
" what's a star. "
" ... "
Clip ignored Slug's question, and continued to gaze.
" it sounds pretty... does it look like you? " Slug yawned, flopping down, curling up next to her.
Clip didn't respond. No way this thing was trying to hit on her, does he even have enough brain capacity to do that? But then again... Clip didn't pull away.
She snorted. She was way out of Slug's league. But, then again... Nah she could do better.
Maybe Ying? She's cute and all but, the mouth on her.
Don't even want to think about Mortis...
Clip sighed. She would probably rather die alone then be with anyone in this group.
She placed her head down, watching Slug sleep. She felt eyes watching her, oh well.
...


















" Wake up we gotta go. " Clip heard Mortis hiss, nudging her awake.
" Wha-? " Clip muttered, she had fallen asleep outside of the dorm, Slug was already up.
" Pavo, Ying, and Urchin are coming with. " Mortis grabbed his satchel.
Clip got up. " Why- what is even going on?? "
Mortis sighed and pointed at a hivewing wearing a leather jacket, surrounded by skywing escorts.
" Shit. " Clip breathed.
" Our 'dormmates' are witnesses, it appears Ying isn't suppose to be here as well, Pavo... We need the food, and Urchin will definitely rat us out. "
Mortis explained.
" Alright... " Clip glanced outside of the dorm, eyeing the hivewing. He looked untrustworthy. 
" Shit shit shit " Clip ducked away as the hivewing made eye contact with her.
" Yeah we gotta go. " Clip grabbed some of her scrolls, shoving them in Mortis's bag.
The green hivewing grabbed Urchin forcefully, Clip nodded at him.
" Guys we gotta go now, grab your stuff. " Clip hissed at Pavo and Ying.
Pavo smiled and nodded, Ying shrugged and agreed. " Fine. But not because I like you guys. "
" whatever floats your boat. " Clip rolled her eyes.
Clip led the group past the hivewing's sight, it was difficult maneuvering so many dragons along with them, but they managed to make it past them, taking a sigh of relief once they were out of eyesight.
" And what are you six doing out here? " Clip froze as she heard Sparrow's sneer.
" We got a pass from Copper. " Mortis spoke up.
" Stay here, I'll go check with Copper. " Sparrow grunted, turning around to leave. 
" go go go! " Clip hissed, flying off.
The others followed behind her, she was worried all the wing beats would alert someone of their escape.
" Oh moons what will we do now. " 
Clip muttered under her breath.
