Prologue

“ Oh your perfect Professor Hawthorn I FORGOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“ Oh your one to talk Snow !! “

“ Ok Ok be quiet both of you . The Headmistress is coming soon .”

“ Um can we turn the light on it’s really dark in here ? “

“Um sure but what about Shadow ?”

“Im fiiiiinnnneeee !”

“Yeesh !”

“That's better !” SLAM!!!

" Professor you're here !

“Well of course you see don't you ?”

“ Um yeah ? You don't have to look at me like that .”

“ WELL why Im here is because of this .” She held a small pamphlet with the headline “Dragons : Lies and Their Selfish Secrets.”

“WHAT!!!!”

The outraged screams of the dragons echoed around the dungeon . Avalanche turned up here headphones in rage . A small storm cloud was growing overs Thunder’s head . Sonar was beeping . Swoop was clawing at the old oak table . Furry was punching snow who was standing there looking stunned . Hawthorn was stabbing the pamphlet with vigger . Splash did a spit take witch splattered the pamphlet . Crystal was making the room turn to ice . Prism was glowing with anger . Shadow was hiding in a box his chest heaving and his breathing heavy .  Diamond was just standing there .

“ Why are you not triggered ?”

“ Well , I know what we can do to stop this .”

“ Well .. ok ?”

“ We need to open the school to animals .”

“..............................................”

“ You know you’re supposed to support me on this !”

“ Oh .”

“ But WHY !!!!!!!!” They all wined .

“ Because there all spreading rumors about us . Don't you care ?”

They shifted uncomfortably in their seats .

Diamond raised an eyebrow .

“ Well I still don't get it !”

“ A darkness it's coming I know . .  We need to be ready .

"We need to train them with all we've got . We need to recruit more , more who are brave , smart , courageous , intelligent , and resilient . We need more who can be warriors .”

Chapter 1

Morning

“ BLAKE COME HERE ! I MADE PANCAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“ MOM its 8:00 !”

“ Well I'm preparing you for school !”

“ SCHOOL STARTS IN A MONTH !!!!!!!!!”

“ Well congrats you'll get a headstart !”

Blake slumped out of bed twitching his ear and rolling his eyes and he went over to the mirror . He was a small Alexander Archipelago Wolf with a white front paws , a white tail tip and a white splash on his chest . He had dazzling pure sky blue eyes

And a fun loving spirit and a passion for adventure ( and Mother Mother ) . Blake pulled on a pair of socks and hoped down stairs very slowly .

“ BLAKE  ARCHIPELAGO HOWLER GET DOWN HERE !!!”

Seriously mom he thought as he walked to the dining room table . He lived in a large Victorian style home with lots of windows viewing the large playground that was next to their house . He lived downtown by the Mayor Howlers house . He piled pancakes on to his plate he shoved some into his mouth

“ Where's the syrup mom ?”

“ I don't know . Try the fridge .”

“ Fine .”

“ Good morning guys !” A tall white wolf with a long thin tail bounded in to the kitchen .

“ Hi dad !”

“ Whats up Blake ?”

“ Where's the syrup ?” He asked his dad .

“ Did you know Mayor .Meow is in town ?!” Blake's dad exclaimed ignoring Blakes wimper .

“ WHERE THE HECK IS THE SYRUP ?????” He roared .

“ Blake be quiet .” His mom snarled .

“ I WILL NOT BE QUIET I WANT SYRUP NOW !!!!!!!!” He thundered .

“ IT'S IN THE FRIDGE CHILD .”

“ Yeesh no need to yell .”

“ Sigh .”

Chapter 2

The Playground

“ G’day Miss . H .”

“ Hello Cooper ! Did you have a nice breakfast ?”

“ Perfect what about yours  Miss . H ?”

“ Fine are you here for Blake ?”

“ Yep !”

“ BLAKE COME HERE ! COOPERS HERE !”

“ COMING MOM !” Blake ran down the stairs and tripped up on the last one . He ran to his mom to meet Cooper at the door . Cooper was a tall Australian Shepherd with tawny , gray and black patches on his long fur . He had big

floppy ears and big chocolate eyes that where always bright but today brighter than normal .

“ Guess what !? Fifi just invited us to the playground !”

“ She doesn't own the park ,” Blake mumbled .

“ Well she’s great right ?” He replied completely oblivious of his whispers .

“ SURE THING !’ He added sarcastically .

“ Come on let’s go !!”

-------------------------------

“ WELL FINALLY YOUR HERE !” Fifi screamed . She was a small white pomeranian with small black eyes and small pink delicate nose . And Cooper had a huge crush on her .

“ Hi  F,Fifi !!” He stammered

“ Hi Blake !” She cast an admiring glance at him completely ignoring Cooper

( who was now hanging his head and casting sly glances at Fifi .

“ So what do you guys want do ?”

“ Hey Blake . Hey Cooper .’

“ Hi Lilly .”

Chapter 3

The Flower Crown

“ SEE YOU GUYS LATER !!” They all screamed there goodbyes to Blake .

“BYE GUYS ! HAVE NICE NIGHT !!” He replied . He and Lily were alone

“ Have a nice night Lily !” He whispered to the beautiful pure white Husky .

“ My mom said I can stay here for a bit .” She put in .

“ I can stay too ( probably ) .” He added to himself

“ Nice .” They sat on the creaky swing in silence . Finally Lilly broke it .

“ Umm , What school are you going to Blake ?”

“ I don't know , what about you ?”

"I'm going to Millie Bush High .”

“ Where's that ?”

“ Over by Collar Street .”

“ Oh , so by Chester's house ?”

“  Yeah it is . Listen Blake, I have something to tell you .” Lilly handed him a  small ( or something, that would fit his head size) decorated with flowers .

“ Blake this is a  flower crown . It symbolizes glory and power and I think it relates to you so break, wherever you go in this world, take this with you. It doesn't  matter where you are and I will be with you okay ?” He looked down at the crown . On the thin birch stick sat a couple of Ranunculus , Juliet Garden Roses , Jasmine , and Berzilla flowers . Tears hit it like hail .

He lifted his head up to thank her but she was gone leaving only the swishing

bracken .

-------------------------------

Blake sat sulking on one of the stools in the kitchen as his mom cooked dinner . He had hidden the crown in a small wooden chest inscribed with a tree with 16 branches each with their own symbol a wave , a leaf , a cloud , a swirly wispy thing , a flower , a raindrop , a flame , an eye , an icicle , a lightning bolt , a mountain , and a battle helmet . At the top most branches there was a sun on one side and a moon on the other and at the top a large sparkly diamond . He had no idea if it meant anything and he didn't even know where he got it ! He sat on his bed staring at the ceiling thinking about what Lily said . All of a sudden a shadow flew past his window and he ignored it . Then a whooping noise sounded from the birch tree outside and again he ignored it . Then all of a sudden is window cracked open and shattered on his bed he ducked . Then a large winged figure stepped inside .“ Are you Blake Achapellego Howler ?”
