like most of his fellow hatchlings, this one was no different. wielding his tiny claws outstretched, fighting its yolky captive. it's pocket of oxygen had been broken through, giving him a limited amount to time to continue. he shot his muzzle forward, cracking a small surface of the shell. clearly not satisfied with it, he continued to peck. over and over until he was able to make his head breach through. the kitten had lacked an egg tooth that some of the others had, making a bit more difficult and time consuming, but his energy seemed to have no bounds.

his body was clearly that of a domestic feline. rather small and still just a scrap of fur, his rowdy mewls in protest made one think differently. the rest of his body was still trapped in the metallic shining egg, wriggling against the filmy substance keeping him trapped. his legs writhed and kicked, eventually, finally breaking through more from the side and tumbling out of it.

his mewls now no longer in complain, but rather triumph, he started to claw his way forward to the other scents and sounds, most still muffled from his ears and eyes being closed. a cream kitten with orange points, otherwise average lookin if it weren't for the collection of scales over their forehead and down their neck. a hardened underbelly of more black shining scales. to add more to it's monstrosity of genetics, a tail tapering down into a sharp spear that seemingly had a mind of its own as it lashed at the air.

"SPEECH"

Another egg rattling, another youth attempting to barge into the world. Tiny talons scraping at the inside of the egg, trying to break free was the creature within. Chirping, peeping, chattering were the sorts of noises that came forth from the shell. Small cracks would grace the surface of the egg. Then, out would peek a small talon. Scrabbling at the rest of the egg in order to remove the creature within from it's confines. Clawing and scraping at the shell, trying to escape as best as it could. A struggle it was, but the hatchling within managed. Out peeked the young creature's head. Small, yet to have developed any significant traits. Fur would come in later, and so would other spotty variations. For the time being, it was almost foreign looking. A draconic body, certainly, but equally as odd. Two sets of ears and gills were present on the silver colored creature and were the most notable features spare the odd looking protrusions of fins that seemed to still be in development. Young, covered in the mess that came from those that had only now entered the world. Chirping noises demanded for attention, limbs sprawled out from the newborn's sides. A jagged mewl broke from the hatchling's gaping maw. Limbs awkwardly kicked at the remains of the discarded eggshell, peeping and continuing to weakly administer a noise to achieve attention as any newborn creature would. Slowly the youth's head tried to raise, but barely managed to do so before falling again. Hatching had been an exhausting feat, and it had taken it's toll on the newborn. The chirps and peeping died down as the silver colored youth tried to squirm forward - towards what, truly, was a debatable notion.
