Under the waves: chapter nine

The megachelon surfaced from the water, moving silently to the light blue sand shore. Almost as soon as they settled down, an enormous red crystal wyvern with a skull atop her head landed, fuming. “What did you do? Do you know the danger you just put us in?!” She roared. “Calm down, Queen Ruby. It had to be done.” The megachelon said coolly. “You just told one of the strongest of the others the prophecy that they shouldn’t have been told untill they learned their powers.” Ruby snarled. “The portals have been open already, and creatures from the different worlds are already going through. They should be prepared.” Said the megachelon. “And what about the other? Trench, was his name?” The queen hissed, inches from the megachelon’s face. “He is part of the prophecy as well.” The megachelon said. “They will find each other, and they must know why the humans are hunting them.” They continued. Ruby snarled in response. If she was a fire wyvern, you would be able to see the smoke pouring out of her snout and ears. Suddenly the megachelon pressed they’re eyes closed, scowling. “Well, I can’t stop you from doing it. If I killed you, the entire isles would fall into chaos. But it won’t be as easy as you think it will be.” They said, taking on a more hostile tone. Ruby gave a sly grin. “That’s the annoying part about your powers. You know what I’ll do to you before I do it.” Suddenly, Ruby was latched onto the megachelon’s back, nipping at they’re spinal cord. The megachelon hissed and bucked the queen off it’s back, before nipping her wing. “You knew this would happen eventually, slate.” Ruby said. Then, before slate could even blink, queen Ruby had slit a wide, bloody smile across slate’s throat.
