"Why hello, little one." A big nose touched the hatchling's little nose. She sneezed and a tiny spark came out.
"Does she already have fire?" Asked a deep voice. The hatchling turned her orange eyes that direction. Instinct told her that that was daddy.
"Only a little."
"You promised that I could name the first hatchling...can I name her LittleFire?" Asked Daddy.
Mommy, for that's who instinct told her the first dragon was, laughed, "I suppose."
LittleFire understood, but couldn't respond, so only smiled happily. She was LittleFire, daughter of Mommy and Daddy.
A small, blue and green dragon pushed its way through toward the nest. "Oooh, one of them hatched!" She seemed so excited. "You still have three more? This is so exciting. What's her name?"
"LittleFire."
"Aww, that's adorable." She turned to the hatchling and gently touched her face with her wings, "Hi, LittleFire, I'm Webbers. I'm friends with your mommy and daddy."
LittleFire giggled. She liked Webbers.

As LittleFire grew older, she found her place in the clan. She loved the hatchlings. She wanted hatchlings of her own, although the thought of a mate kind of filled her with terror. Why on earth would she have wanted one of those? All they could cause, in her humble opinion, was trouble.
So she watched the stray hatchlings, or the hatchlings of fighters, guards, warriors.
She was very close to all of the members of her family, except for her brother CharredEmbers. He had always been a bit of a jerk to her...and other dragons for that matter. But she was closest to her sister, Shadow.
Shadow is now well known in the clan as a traveling dragon, but when she left, LittleFire was terrified.
"Shadow, don't you know what could happen to you? They might send you away to fight with their deity! They might force you to lay eggs with their greatest fighter. Shadow, they might send you into the Coliseum and let you die!"
Shadow sighed and embraced her sister, "LittleFire, I'll be fine. I promise."
"Don't you make a promise that you can't keep, Shadow. I need you safe, alive, and home. So you had better make your way home, as soon as possible."
"Don't worry. It's just...I want to see the world, not just home."
LittleFire sighed, "Okay."
While Shadow was gone, LittleFire watched for her. She became distracted from her duties of Hatchling Guard, and had to step down for a bit while she waited for Shadow to come home.
She saw a dragon flying toward their lair. It resembled a guardian. Shadow! It was Shadow! It got closer and she realized it was not her sister. It was a male guardian. Her shoulders slumped, and she turned away from him.
"Excuse me...is this the clan of Shadow, travel dragon?"
She turned toward him, "Do you bring news from her? Is she safe? Has she been hurt?"
"Um...well, sort of. She recently visited my lair and...we fell in love. I couldn't keep traveling with her though, so she told me how to get to her home lair. She told me to find her sister, LittleFire, and be friends with her."
"Oh."
"Do you know where I could find her?"
"I'm LittleFire."
"Hello. I have a letter from her, to you."
"You do?"
He dropped it in front of her. It was dirty and wrinkled. It was obvious that he had been clutching it in his claws. "Yes."
LittleFire ignored the dragon and hastily opened the letter.
"Dearest Sister...I'm enjoying myself. Traveling is very enjoyable to me. The dragon who delivered this letter is named Reaver. He is amazing and wonderful. I love him very much. Please tell Mother and Father to let him stay. Show them this letter if you have to. Everyone has been very kind to me. They've given me so much. Much more than I've ever dreamed of or needed. With love, Shadow."
LittleFire looked up at Reaver. "Thank you. I've missed her."
"She's missed you too. But she does love traveling. I think you are the only reason she would even come home."
LittleFire nodded. It made her feel better. So, with new hope, she sat and continued to wait for Shadow.
At last, as the sun was setting, and LittleFire was tired, lowering herself to the ground to sleep, while Protector stood over her. He thought she was insane, staying out every night. She rested her head on her arms and closed her eyes.
"LittleFire!" Protector shouted.
"Hmm?"
"Look."
LittleFire opened her eyes and nearly cried for joy. Shadow was home.
