[Search] [Impression] [Hatchling] [Weyrling] [Adult]

   Klira sat up on her ledge of the weyr watching  as the dragons found there way back to there own haven. The sun was growing dim and a cool breeze blew through the Weyr. This is the happiest she had ever been in awhile, and she sat quietly taking it in. She was reunited with her sister and now had a chance to make up things with her. She felt like she had matured so much over the short time she had been at Dragon Fang, and she was once told that you have matured if you no how immature you have been, and she deeply believed in this. Klira climbed down to the sands, but dared not go in them. She sat and watched as her sister sing to herself as she petted  her dragon. A smile grew on her face, just seeing her sister so happy made herself glow inside. She had never seen her sister that happy, she has changed so much her at the Weyr, she had so much more confidence that her foster mother wouldn't allow.
Just then something caught Klira's eyes, and then Katri's dragon jerked to where the motion was coming.
"The egg's there hatching!!" Klira thought to herself.
Katri had hopped to her feet and ran out of the sands to find the Weyrleaders. Klira ran back to her weyr and dressed quickly in the white robe that was given to her for impression she could already hear the dragons humming and she knew that she better hurry. When she got back to the sands, she noticed that half of the other candidates were already there. All of them looked nervous and scared and they gathered around the eggs with there heads held low, but for some reason Klira didn't feel that afraid and she kept her head up.  She lined herself up with a group of girl candidates and looked at the eggs.
 The first egg hatched and revealed a blue who went to a male candidate and impression took place. It was amazing how this happened, but Klira found herself worried about one thing, how would she know her dragons name. "Will it tell me, or will I just know?" She pondered to herself. Soon another egg hatched revealing a magnificent bronze and a small green.
After the three eggs had hatched it had revealed for the first time an egg that was different from the rest.  A larger egg, with a golden hue that Klira knew could only be a queen egg. A hush fell over the room  and Klira began to get nervous. As it split open and a queen waddled out.
"But it was impossible! A gold in a green's clutch!" a candidate beside her said in chime with many other people in the sands.

Klira watched as the gleaming gold wandered around awkwardly, searching the line of the remaining girl candidates that she was in. Klira noticed as some of the girls crept up closer in hopes of impressing, but Klira remained where she had been standing, she knew that she would be happy with what ever she impressed, all dragons to her were gyms, but to impress a gold would been most wonderful. The queen than past her but backed back up and there eyes locked a feeling of warmth and happiness filled her as the gleaming gold approached her, she stretched out her neck to get a closer look at the stunned Klira.
  Why are you surprised? Would you not have me as your dragon? Klira petted gold Merieth fondly, even if her hand still shook. "Yes, of coarse I would , Merieth what ever made you think that I wouldn't?"
