"Look who's comig. Is that...."
"Are those?"
"Nobody wanted to come to my party, so I brought the party to you."
"Nobody panic. Nobody panic.
Wolfpack, please lead the way.
Starlight, can I come down now?"
"As you wish."
*Zip…..zip….weeeaaaaaap*
"Aaaaaagh. It's so much easier to breathe down here. As I was saying, nice job Rain for keeping us all afloat, but when you said all….you forgot one."
"I.....I…..I didn't forget."
"No?"
"I was just....hiding them while I prepare."
"Prepare a..."
"Surpsie party. Prepare a surprise party."
"Rain, do you see cars?"
"No."
"Do you see planes?"
"....Are….Pegasus considered planes?
*Scratch, scratch*
"That means all roads are cleared. They won't harm a fly."
"Yeah, that is unless they swing their arms around.
Aaaaaaaaaaghhhh."
"You should join a theater with those moves. Was very convincing."
"Hmmm.
Besides, where would they stay? All your Kingdoms are too small, and mine…."
"Skyscrapers."
"Excuse me."
"Yeah. Just across the bay. I saw them coming in. Since you moved people here, they set abandoned. They may be big in our eyes, but will serve as an apartment for them.
They won't be a bother."
"Uhhhh.....
I hope you have more of a plan then that."
"Woods crowded, streets not. I don't want them to step on me, and you don't want them to hit you out of the sky. Stop making things more complicated than they are.
I saw the city just to the other side of here. It sits abandoned.
....OKAY, STARLIGHT. Can you swim?"
"Ummm.
Frostwing, transport them to the other side of the bay, please."
"Why do the Dragons get to stay, and not us?"
"Starlight, please."
".....Fine."
"Wolfgirl, wait."
"No, Jacklyn. I am not tagging along with your mysterious adventures. My place is here.
Star, my Pack will deliver goods to your pack and vice versa. Sounds good."
"Uhhhh."
"Great. I'll catch you later, but don't tell me to tuck you in because I don't do bedtime stories.
...….OR SING...….that was the other one. Yeah. Star will visit you in a minute.
Come on Star. Tailor is this way."
"Wolfgirl, I don't want you to leave. In fact, I want to help you stay."
"Keep talking.
....All of these people here, stay in one place and don't move. But as a Pack, you are always on the move."
"Ok."
"I'll just come out and say it. I was given a Map by a good friend of mine. He thinks he may know where most of the Time doors are, but He's not for certain. Since you and Owl move around so much; I was hoping I....."
"I don't need Owl. Give me the map. I'll not only find the doors, but I'll find them faster than Owl ever oculd."
"My source has started the digging process, but I convinced him to stop. This way, instead of looking for a mountain; you will see an already premade cave. Can't get easier than that."
"Can I take anybody with me, or is this a spy mission?"
"As long as it's not my brother....or Rain.
I can't promise you will have a safe passage there.."
"Pfft. All for one and one for all. My pack is my strength. After the stampede, and Lion left; we have grown nothing but strength. If you cry you die. Hesitate, you will dissipitate. Out here in the woods, every decision is a split second decision. The time it takes you to form a complete thought.
*Snap*
"Oooo."
"You're dead.
Citygirl can't save you now. Nor can your clothes. In fact, it will be a hindrance."
"At least wear something. It can get cold out at night."
"What? You're my mom now? Mom, I have a coat; don't worry. It's called fur. Now leave me alone and I'll come home. Persist…..and I....will.....resist."
"I knew I could count on you. Here you go. After you get Star all dieled up, you think you'll be ready?"
"Of course, of course."
"Oh, and even though my clothes can wrap around anybody; please let Star try on a few to see what she likes.
I don't see her riding a two piece. Do you?"
"I'll....handle it. I got everything under control. Don't worry. I'll report my findings to your brother so he can map it down."
"Wait.......you......….you were supposed to report to me."
"....Feel like you are no longer the teacher in the room?"
"Helen, what are you...I thought Jewels wanted to show you something."
"She did. Just....stuff from home. I can't discuss it with you cause you don't like me interfering......…but maybe it's ok to break the rules once in a while."
"Helen!!!!"
"I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Never break the rules, nor bend them. Trust me. You'll thank me for that.
Ready to go?"
"Where we going?"
"I don't know. Elwin wants us back at the ship. As Darius said, 'We just came here to drop off the Kids; recap with our Trainers, and then off again.
What? Don't tell me you have forgotten already."
"No. No. It's just...…"
"Once Stars done getting her measurements, we're out of here. So, if I were you; I would start sewing everylast one of those Clothes you have on board, together. You're gonna need it."
"Every….one? Even the one she blew her nose with?"
"Well...that one can stay out."
"But it got lost in the crowd."
"That's your problem, not mine. Happy hunting."
"Helen........Helen...…..Errrrr. How did I get so mean when I grew up?"
