Lucky

"So you came for me huh?" the pearlcatcher chuckles, "Re- really? All this trouble for me?" She taps the cave floor with her claws. A grin forms on her small face as she looked down at the pearl. The pearlcatcher stretches her wings. Her wings glow in the darkness.

"You really should have checked again. You really should have checked," her voice gets more agitated now as she walks closer. She scratches the floor with her claws. Her smile has a grin with visible fangs. She stops, looking behind her. Her wings lay on the pearl.

"I shouldn't be so hard on you. You don't know, don't you," She whispers to the banescale dragon. The sound of the guardian seems louder now.

"You don't understand," she shouts, hitting the ground with his wings, "You don't know!" The ghost stares at the ground in anger. She gives a pained smile to the floor.

"You don't know, you don't know." she starts to shake as the banescale walks back. He gives her a comforting look, though he tries to hide the fear in the expression.

"Don't come again," she demands, striking the other dragon with her small claws. Hunter stumbles back. He breathes heavily in terror as the pearlcatcher flies away. He grips his face where the dragon struck him. "Are you okay over there?" Hibiscus asks as she found the clanmate.

"Ye- yeah I'm good," he stuttered, trying to hide in the dark, "Just got lost again."

"Oh okay," the guardian calls out, flying away. She didn't believe him, but she wanted to trust him. Hunter clutches his face. He didn't want to look for the ghost again.
