[h1]Nalastain Lucious Tucker[/h1] Nalastain kept his mouth shut. No matter how much he wanted to yell back at the man and explain how he got his egg, he could not. If he did... well, that is for you to figure out... He looked at Warifana, his one and only family that has kept him alive throughout the years. What if the pool was to show him standing on the ground? What would she think of him than? Would he be labeled as a thief? Many questions clouded his mind, but he was in front of the queen, he must keep his nerves steeled. He walked slowly to the pool of tears, a perfect reflection of Nalastain could be seen in the reflection. He knelt down, and placed his hand inside the waters. They felt cold, like a spring. He moved them around and saw... Nothing, only his own reflection. He stared in disbelief. His hopes and dreams, worse, his promise, blasted away in a matter of seconds. He stood up, still looking at the waters with wide eyes. He took one glance at Wrafiana, who stared back at him. "Middovah, it-" She tried to say, but it was cut short as he ran. "Middovah!" The white dragon yelled, she spread her wings to fly, gushing waves of air to anyone surrounding her. Once she took to the sky, it was too late, she could not see Nalastain. Nalastian ran, for that was the only sensible thing to him. He did not want to face more ridicule than he already has done. He wanted to hide from Wrafiana, the beautiful, innocent dragon that he has nurtured since she was young. He could not dare to look at her face and say "I'm sorry, I failed you." He heard Wrafiana yelling his nickname in the air, but he hid from her... Today was a dark day, in Nalastain's mind. he would not become a winged defender
