Grimble takes the owlets away from their manual labor, took them through the dark canyon. They've passed the Tyto storm trooper that guards the canyon. But the storm trooper took noticed, as they were walking.

Soren: "What do you plan on doing with us?" (Nervously)

Grimble pushed the young barn owl and whispered: "Quiet!" Then the old boreal took a glance at the Tyto storm trooper, as it was staring at them with his red glowing eyes. But the Tyto storm trooper ignores them and continue on guarding. As the three owls walk across the rock bridge, they were headed towards the chamber. Soren was terrified, as he looked down at Gylfie. She started shivering in fear and making chirping sounds. They stepped inside the small chamber and it was filled with books. The books were all lined up on the wall ledges, some were lying on the floor, and others were standing. And there were lit oil lamps, all over the chamber. Grimble took them to the library.

Gylfie: "What is this place?"

Grimble: "Get inside." The old boreal owl shoved the owlets into the library and continued: "Stop asking questions."

Gylfie took one step and gasps, when she saw an owl skeleton. Then she said: "You know the pure ones won't be too happy, if you don't let us get back to the Pellatorium."

Grimble: "No. And they won't be too happy when they find out what I'm gonna do to you either." The old boreal owl raised his wings.

Soren and Gylfie gasps with horror, not knowing what he's gonna do next.

Grimble: "I'm gonna teach you to fly."

Soren: "Fly?"

Grimble: "You can breathe now."

Gylfie sigh of relief.

Grimble: "*Chuckles* Yeah, it's getting worse here. I told myself if any come who were smart and brave enough to resist...I'd help them. I guess you two will have to do."

Soren didn't understand why is this boreal owl who is one of the Pure Ones that would help them to fly. Then he asked: "But aren't you a-?"

Grimble: "A pure one? No, I hate them. Almost as much as I hate what they've turned me into. My feathers weren't always stained with these colors."

Grimble's past

Grimble: "When the Pure Ones invaded our kingdom, I fought back. Now, they thought they could use that…so they took my family."

The Pure Ones took Grimble's family away. His daughter screams with fear, being taking away and never see her father again.

Grimble: "And they promised me if I followed orders, no harm would come to them. And I've been doing their dirty work ever since."

Back to the present

Rapunzel: "That's awful."

Then the old boreal flew and landed on the perch in distance from Soren and Gylfie. He turned around and said: "Now, have you flown at all before?"

Soren: "Well, I have been branching."

Grimble: "Well, you don't have the luxury of gliding down from a nest anymore. We need to work on your power skills. Starting with what you already know."

Soren's guide

Soren: "Learning to fly is part of every young owls' rite of passage. Owls are taught to fly in at a very early age...usually as young as five to seven weeks. But to become a great flier takes hard work and a lot of practices. Of course, it helps if you're designed for flight. Just like most birds...owls have light hollow bones and feathers...and mostly eat lightweight quickly-digested foods. In the end, though, it all comes down to the wings. Like most birds, our wings are powerful but very light. All the bone and muscle in the wing is located at the front edge. The rest of the wing is nothing but feathers. And those feathers are designed to catch the wind currents...carry us upwards, and keep us soaring when we flap. Using those currents is how an owl sails. My teacher Ezylryb, has a name for each special type of air current. Suppers for the big ones and baggywrinkles for the small ones. Compared to most other birds...owls have pretty big wings relation to the size of our bodies. So our wings are strong enough to support our weight without much effort. This means that unlike a lot of other birds...we don't need to do a lot of fast flapping. Our wings are special...allowing us to lift up straight into the air...hover low to the ground, glide in complete silence...or fly as slowly or quickly as we need. No owl could all do this perfectly for the first time of course. But a little determination...any owl could do all these things with ease."

Rapunzel: "Flying, what's it like?"

Soren: "Well, Rapunzel, flying is like freedom. Here I'll show you."

The young barn owl spread his wings out, and then ran forward to the cliff of the mountain. He flew off of the cliff and soar into the sky. Soren felt the air breeze through his feathers.

Soren: "Woo-hoo! Oh, yeah!" Then the young barn owl did a front-flipped in midair and swirling around into the clouds.

Rapunzel looked up and watch him, as he was soaring. In her thoughts: "*Sighs* I wish I could fly. But I'm not an owl like Soren. I'm just a girl with a magic hair." She lower her head.

Soren took notice, as he was flying. He didn't want Rapunzel to feel left out. So he landed onto the ground and said: "Rapunzel."

Rapunzel: "Yes."

Soren turned around and said: "Climb, on my back."

Rapunzel: "What?" She was quite surprised to hear what he just said.

Soren: "Come on."

Rapunzel: "No, Soren, I can't. It's just that I'm scared."

Soren: "Rapunzel, we're just going a break now. There's nothing to be afraid of. I wanted to show you around my home. That's all."

Rapunzel thought about it. In her mind: "It would nice to fly. I mean, it sounds fun and I can get to have some flying experience." And so at that moment on, she agreed to go with him. Then Rapunzel climbs onto his back, holding on tighter around his neck. But it was harder for him to breathe.

Soren: "Rapunzel, your choking me."

Rapunzel: "Oops sorry. I'm never ride an owl before. Especially you, Soren."

Soren: "*Coughing* don't worry it will be fun, I promise." He clears his throat and said: "Now, are you ready?"

Rapunzel nodded.

Soren: "All right, let's go!" He spread his wings and flew into the sky. Unaware, Rapunzel close both of her eyes and buried her head in Soren's feathers. The young barn owl looked back and noticed of Rapunzel buried her head in his feathers. Then he said: "Rapunzel, it's okay. Just picture yourself, as you're flying. Trust me."

Rapunzel trusted him more than anything. She lifts her head up and opened her eyes. Then Rapunzel gasps, as she sees the entire landscape of the forest. She has never seen anything so beautiful. The mountains, the fir trees, and she even see the River Hoole. The largest river of all the Tyto forest.

Rapunzel: "Wow!"

Soren: "See this isn't so bad."

Rapunzel: "You were right. This is wonderful and fun too. Thank you, Soren."

Soren: "You're welcome. Now let's get back to the story."

Rapunzel: "Okay."

Back to the library

Grimble: "Show me what you can do."

The two young owlets looked at each other for a moment.

Grimble: "Come on."

Soren and Gylfie spread their wings, running forward and started flapping. They flapped their wings harder and both of the owlets began to lift off the ground.

Grimble: "Hey, good, good."

The owlets landed onto a pile of books and started panting with exhaustion.

Grimble: "Now, try and feel every muscle, every feather in each stroke."

The two owlets flew back into the air and flapped their wings harder making the book pages flip.

Grimble: "And push!"

Gylfie flapped her wings as hard as she could. But she sent into a midair back-flip. Then she was losing her grip on the air, and she fell right into Soren's back.

Soren: "Ow." He was hit by Gylfie. When she fell onto his back.

Then Gylfie bounces off, landed on the ground and somersaulted. She tumbled down by a discarded book. Soren landed on the ground and watch everything what just happened to his friend. The young owlets started laughing.

Grimble: "Heh-heh-heh. All right, you two, that's enough come on. Back to practice."

Gylfie was exhausted from all of that flying. So she lay down and moaned.

Grimble chuckled.

Rapunzel: "Oh, I see so Grimble was the one who help you guys learn how to fly right?"

Soren: "Yes. That's right, Rapunzel."

Rapunzel: "So if Grimble is teaching you how to fly. There's got to be an explanation. Like if he's using you and Gylfie to warn the others about what the Pure Ones are planning. Then she paused for a moment and then she said: "Oooohhh. Now, I get it Grimble wants you guys to warn the Guardians."

Soren: "Correct."

Rapunzel: "Yes!" She started dancing.

Soren looked at her with a smile on his face. In his mind: "Wow. Rapunzel is so excited about this story. I like to see her happy. When I'm teaching her about the owl kingdoms. And the truth she's just me."

Rapunzel notice him looking at her. She immediately stop dancing and said: "*Chuckles* I mean yes. *Gasps* Wait a minute, what if the Pure Ones find out that Grimble is helping you guys to escape? They're gonna be so cross. What happens next?"

Soren: "Let's see."
