The knock on the door woke Sundrop up, she stretched out her legs and lifted up her head to get a better look at the door. A maid stood in front of the door, she seemed a little timid and Sundrop smiled at her to help ease her nerves. "Ma'am the sun should be up in 15 minutes." She whispered walking closer to the bed but she suddenly stopped when she caught a look of the condition of the room, she seemed startled by the mess.

Feathers from torn pillows laid around the bed, parts of the sheets were hanging off of the mattress and a platter of dishes sat at the foot of the bed. The maid just shook her head and started to pick up the mess, Sundrop raised a hoof in the air and the maid stopped. "Don't worry about it dear, you're dismissed" Sundrop reassured the dragon as she yawned and got out of bed with a stretch.

The maid bowed as Sundrop began to clean up, when the maid closed the door it let out a loud thud that resonated through the cabin, the sudden sound startled Flame awake who then frantically patted around the bed then sat up in distress. Sundrop cleared her throat and he turned, when they made eye contact Sundrop tossed a small pillow at him.

He caught it and let out a laugh, Sundrop couldn't help but giggle at his reaction. Sundrop crawled back into the bed and he wrapped his arms around her, she sighed and leaned into his embrace. As she listened to the train rumble on the tracks she couldn't help but think her plan was already going to plan.

Flame's dad instincts were already beginning to kick in, and now it would be Exponentially easier to light up his anger. Sundrop just had to get Saffron to strike at her and she would be as good as gone.
