Chapter 7: School

                                           (4 Years Later)




    "Father, Mother, please?" Flint and RedRunner pleaded. They had been begging to go to an actual school and not being homeschooled for months now. 


    "We promise we won't ever reveal that you are our parents or that we are assassins that have assassinated anyone either!" they promised. 


    "FINE!" Sear snapped. Arson raised an eyebrow at her. She shrugged guiltily.


    "I couldn't take it! ..and we already enrolled them anyway, so it's not like anything would be different.." she grumbled, adding the last part in a mumble. The twins exchanged a glance. 


    "You two will go to Kyte's Academy For SkyWings and SandWings." 


    "YAY!" RedRunner cheered as Flint humorously whispered, "What kind of a name for a school is that?" RedRunner bounced between the floor and the ceiling,and Flint fluttered his wings in excitement. 


     About a week later, they flew to the school, which was on one of the Claws Of The Clouds Mountains, by themselves (their parents couldn't show their faces since they were wanted). Landing down on the grass, Flint flinching as his talons started scorching dark black over the green, they looked at the class list again: 


 Acacia Class: 


 SkyWings: Princess Anarchy(F), RedRunner(M), BloodRose(F) 


 SandWings: Prince Kadal(M), Savannah(F), Oryx(M) 


 Baobab Class: 


 SkyWings: Empyrean(F), Topaz(F), Plume(M) 


 SandWings: Snip(M), Scorch(M), Prickly-Pear(F)[Sand-Rain] 


 Candelabra Class: 


 SkyWings: Cinder(F), Ridge(M), Pink Lemonade(F)[Sky-Rain-Sand] 


 SandWings: Tanner(M), Goldscale(F), Bramble(M) 


 Eucalyptus Class: 


 SkyWings: Kenobi(M), Flint(M), Feather(F) 


 SandWings: Diamondback(F), Mamba(M), Hyena(M) 


 Manketti Class: 


 SkyWings: Torch(M), Fever(F), Inferno(M) 


 SandWings: Greyscale(M), Heatwave(F)[Sand-Sea], Cottonmouth(M)[Sand-Sand-Sea] 


     "It says you're in the Acacia Class and I'm in the Eucalyptus Class.." Flint read off, squinting at the parchment. 


    "Wait, we're in different classes?!" RedRunner cried. Flint hesitated, processing this, before nodding sadly. RedRunner sighed, bowing his head. 


    "Well, I guess this is goodbye until our next class together," Flint sighed, reluctantly heading off to his class. He briefly waved goodbye to RedRunner, his brother, of course, waving back, before vanishing from view into one of the school's four or so doors. Who knew separating from your twin brother for different classes in school could be so sad? Flint thought glumly, heading to the room that his class was apparently meeting.
