~Kerosene~
The announcer had called out "Match!" once Carrion had Blast pinned. Blast crawled away as Carrion flew away proudly. A different IceWing with clips on his wings had walked into the arena, without anyone from the other side coming in. A smaller SkyWing flew up to Ruby, whispering something to her. "What is is, Mais?" She listened some more and sighed mournfully. "It appears that the MudWing opponent for this IceWing," Ruby announced. "had passed this morning, we will hold a ceremony for him tomorrow afternoon. On this thought, though, we need a new volunteer." She looked to me. "Perhaps Kerosene can compete again." She smiled. I pointed a questioning talon to myself and flew down there, the IceWing pacing. "And now," the announcer started, "We have Icicle of the IceWings (just cause) and Kerosene of the SkyWings! Claws up, tails ready, fight!" We circled each other and Icicle was snarling ferociously. I trembled a bit and realized this was a prisoner, here for a trial of some sort. He suddenly made a fast, whip like movement and had my head on the sand in a second. I had no time to react when he held a poisonous tail over my head, hissing as a black forked licked out of his mouth. He had IceWing and SandWing parents!

Even if I don’t know quite
exactly where I want to be
I’m not gonna stay here
stuck in someone else’s dream
.....
Maybe I’ll find mine’s a nightmare,
but I don’t even care
I just wanna live inside my own dream
