Chapter one (Prince Kiro’s POV)
The sun rose lazily as the moon retreated inside a palace a white dragon -with orange spots that slowly turned yellow near the jaw- opened his eyes and yawned, stretching his bird like wings.He pushed himself into a rather uncomfortable sitting position before getting out of bed.
He blinked annoyed at the blinding sun for it had woke him up from the most mysterious dream he had ever encountered “Honestly you try to sleep in but then the sun just go to go and wake you up” Kiro muttered turning away from the window and was just about to push open his door when he heard a knocking sound; sighing he opened the door using his tail but his mood immediately perked up when he saw it was his childhood friend: Gumball and then his mood dropped a bit when he saw his expression
“Oh hi Gumball I didn’t know you had to see me this early in the morning” Kiro gestured toward the window behind him where you could see the sun-still rising. Kiro hesitated when Gumball didn’t answer “Honestly you look like someone’s died is everything okay?” Kiro prompted Gumball
Gumball sighed and it looked like he was bracing himself
“It’s just that.. you know Darklights brother?”
Kiro paused a hint of incredulity in his eyes “Gumball, don’t be ridiculous Greyscale died 40 years ago what could possibly involve him now?”
Gumball bit his lip before answering “we have um.. found Greyscale” Gumball muttered the last part out
Kiro could help but laugh “What? You mean his dead body was like ‘WoOoO I decided I want to live’ honestly I think you have eaten too many gooseberries”
Gumball expression turned from grim to annoyed “No! I’m being serious and for the record I haven’t eaten any today, look just follow me and you will understand. I mean we got a witness of 20 dragons including me”
Kiro sighed. Alright, whatever makes him happy, he thought while trailing behind Gumball.
“Oh my gosh, Kiro! Can you hurry the hell up? At this rate, it’ll be midnight before we get there!” Gumball exclaimed, twisting his head around so he could glare at him.
Kiro immediately quickened his pace. “Alright, alright, give me a break. I just woke up, and you come out of nowhere saying you found Greyscale. Like… imagine how crazy that sounds,” he huffed, letting Gumball take the lead.
“Yeah sure it sounds crazy but that does not” Gumball raised his voice at the last part “Mean you get to be slower then a snail.Look let’s just get there as fast as you can so you can see for yourself alright?”
Kiro nodded “Okay, whatever I guess it’s better then staying in here” His pace shifted into a jog then he stopped a few seconds later when he noticed Gumball wasn’t next to him. He turned around and saw Gumball looking darkly at him.
“Nope, when you have seen what’s happened you will wished you was still sleeping”
