The Tale of Storm Breaker

Origins

Throughout Equestria's history, there has been a number of rare occurrences that have appeared long before Starswirl the Bearded discovered Skylands. But this tale is about a rare feather winged dragon that was abandoned by his kind and raised by ponies. This is a dragon that took Equestria by storm, literally. This is his tale.

In the time of the Great Dragon Migration, there have been unexpected births of dragon hatchlings. This Migration had the largest unexpected hatchlings in Equestria, but the shock softened up when one final egg hatched. The Egg had a bluish color to it along with dark blue spots around the shell. The Dragons were shocked that the head didn't appear first, but there was instead a pair of feathery Pegasus like wings broke through the shell. The egg burst open revealing the rest of the hatchling, but its feathered wings brought a sign of disgust for most dragons with their leathery wings. They saw that the hatchling was a genetic defective and assumed the tradition of what they do to defectives.

Meanwhile near the Lava pits, a dark blue Pegasus mare with a blue mane was studying dragons near the migration site. Each time she would see a dragon fly in and out, she with take a note on it. It wasn't until she saw a group of four dragons walking away from the migration spot. She went in closer and discovered a fifth dragon, a hatchling being carried by the center dragon. She followed them until the center dragon set the hatchling down as he said,

"The uncommon dragons are a curse to our kind. Hopefully a Timber wolf will end you."

As the Dragons left, she saw the small hatchling abandoned and alone. As soon as the Dragons were out of earshot, she went down to the hatchling and noticed something extraordinary. Despite its sad yellow eyes, she spotted its wings unfolding revealing a pair of Pegasus wings. She was stunned by her discovery, but she also saw the sadness of the abandonment of something so rare. She gave the hatchling a motherly stare and said,

"Don't worry, little one. I'll take care of you."
The hatchling smiled and let out a small tear of joy. She knelt down as the hatchling climbed into her saddlebag, she took off for Canterlot to bring the university her new discovery.

As she arrived at the Canterlot School for Explorative Pegasi, she was met by her friend who asked,

"Stormy, You're back so soon?"

Stormy replied, "I am back because I found something that the professors may like to see."

Her friend asked, "What did you find?" Stormy motioned to her right saddlebag as a pair of small blue zig-zag horns appeared from the saddlebag along with the head and body of a dragon hatchling. Her friend said,

"You found a baby dragon?" Stormy replied, "When I found this hatchling, he was already abandoned by his own kind."

Her friend was shocked, "That's terrible!"

Stormy finished, "But I took him in and brought him here to show the professors."

Stormy went into the school and found her professors in their offices and showed the hatchling to them. One Professor said,

"Incredible, a marvelous discovery of a different species of dragon."

Another Professor asked, "Why would the dragons abandon this little one?"

Stormy replied, "Its his wings, his wings are Pegasus like wings."

The Professors moved an object close to the hatchling as its eyes caught up with it. The hatchling's feathered wings opened and closed as it kept the object in sight. Stormy asked,

"Should we take it to the doctor so she can examine it. But please, be gentle, its just a baby."

The professor spoke, "You should take it to a doctor, you do care about it. You have discovered a rare species, Stormy. You should feel honored."

After taking the hatchling to the doctor, the doctor gave the small dragon a quick routine examination and determined that the hatchling is happy and healthy in Stormy's care. The doctor identified the new species as 'Feather Winged Dragons'. Stormy was actually thinking of a name for the sleeping hatchling in the small cradle. Stormy asked,

"Now what should I call you?" Her question was interrupted when the hatchling sneezed. When the hatchling sneezed, a big storm erupted from the clouds. It was an unscheduled storm when she looked outside. Soon enough the Weather Team got it under control, she looked at the hatchling and decided,

"Storm Breaker. I'll call you, Storm Breaker." The hatchling cooed happily.
