Audio and Sunny had remained like that, besides from his wing coming off her back. They occasionally said something to eachother. The MimicWing felt glad that the yellow dragonet was comforted by his presence.
Something that had slightly odded out the grey dragonet was a great, warm feeling. It wasn't anything like the others of gratitude or satisfaction, it was just- unexplainable to him.
The SandWing that beside him, still, a cew occasional looks of memberance and sorrow, in which had frightened Audio. They didn't seem to be focus on the egg entirely, but, he was still nervous. He was able to tell there was something she wasn't explaining. . .but, he didn't want to end up harassing his friend. So, he didn't interrogate her.
He had noticed that Clay and Starflight glancing at the two, in which the NightWing had a slighty upset look as he looked at Sunny. . .which made Audio even more scared.
He loves her, he had thought, he is sympathetic for her too. . .whatever happened.
The SandWing glanced up at him, ". . .did anybody see what happened last night?" she asked.
Audio hesitated before saying anything, "Well. . .Glory saw it. She said what I did was the right thing, in which-"
Sunny's eyes widened, and she covered her eyes for a second, "D-did she say anything?" she asked in a quick whisper, him barely being able to understand it.
". . .no." Audio lied in a whispered response. He was worried that she didn't want anybody to know of her condition. She might think she's on her own in this. . .I hope she knows that I'm here for her.
The door had creaked as Glory and Lilac walked into the cave, in which Blister had followed with a simple, blank expression.
"I have come with them just to notify you all that you can stay in here," she had announced, "I can just use a guest room in the palace." And as quickly as she said this, she was gone.
Audio didn't focus on what she said, but what she might have done. She killed Kestrel. . .has she? If so, we would've heard the clue about the slashing of her throat. Maybe she's really good a hiding her secrets now.
Glory had looked at Audio and Sunny, ahe had smiled and shook her head. Though, she glanced back suspiciously as Mollusk closed the door behind them, the SeaWing still remaining in the cave, "I-isn't she considerate," the guard said, a nervous laugh following.
". . .yeah. I don't know what to think of her," Glory agreed, "Starflight, you might be right about your choice so far."
The NightWing had nodded, "I knew we could trust her."
"I not fully on board," Audio had declared, "but, my opinion could change."
Sunny, who had pulled the egg slightly closer to her, the worried expression still remainly and looking as if it would be on her face longer then it would be welcomed, ". . .how's Cobalt doing?"
"His leg's hurt! And he's kinda skinny," Lilac had said, "but, he was very happy to see us!" She had suppressed a few of her own giggles, likely thinking of the young SeaWing.
Mollusk warmly smiled at the little Gryphon, and Audio couldn't help but smile along with him, but, it couldn't distract him from Sunny. Half of his mind was put towards her as of now.
The door flew open as a certain SeaWing ran through, the dragon looking out of breath like she ran the whole way, "Webs," was all she said as she panted.
Glory tilted her head, "Webs? Oh wait- Webs!" she turned to the rest of the group, "Come on, come on!"
Almost instantly, the group had followed Tsunami, Audio sprinting behind as the group rushed, and Mollusk far back running after.
This isn't going to be fun.
The group ahead had stopped as a small crowd were in the way. The dragonets pushed through, with Lilac having to be carried through by Glory. Audio made it passed, and Mollusk soon followed.
What he saw was simple : Assault. Queen Coral held Webs by the neck, almost the point where it could be considered choking, "You dare come back here, traitor?" she spat, "Leaving your post and taking MY child from me!"
The Talon had looked panicked. He was likely taken by surprise, or Audio had thought, "I-I just had to do it!"
"For what? Had to make me wait this long for a reconnection! THIS shouldn't have even happened!" she had now slammed Webs into the ground.
"I just want to see my son and wife!" he said, terror starting to fill him.
"Unfortunate your wife was sent on one of the bloodiest battles I've seen," Coral responded with an cruel glare.
Tsunami had went one step before a voice yelled from behind them, "Coral, enough!"
The enraged SeaWing queen looked up from where she held Webs, in which he now looked dazed. Audio looked to see Princess Blister, "Release him," she demanded.
"Why should I?" Queen Coral had snarled, "He's a coward for putting more lives at risk!"
"Coral." she repeated, an deadly edge to her voice that would make a god quiver in fear, "Release him."
The SeaWing had hesitated, before slowly releasing her palm off the Talon of Peace, who had now looked like he had fainted. Tsunami and Starflight instantly went to his side as Blister had approached, ". . .that was inappropriate of you." She had stated as she put a talon on the side of his face.
"He's a traitor!" Queen Coral had repeated, "he deserved it!"
The SandWing princess sighed, "Go back to your throne room while I deal with this. . .I'm surprised you don't have Anemone tied to you with a leash."
"It's a safety harness. . ." the queen had grumbled as guards started to guide her back. Mollusk had approached, "M-ma'am, do you w-want me to g-get him medical a-attention?" he had asked Blister.
"No," she said, "He'll wake up. . .actually, bring over transport. . .tell them to take him to my cave where the dragonets remain."
The guard nodded as he had walked off, in which other guards followed while others told the SeaWing civilian crowd to disperse.
Blister sighed, putting her claw over her eyes, "She thinks she can just do that. . ." the princess had started to mumble more.
Audio brought his attention to Webs, but, Glory called him over before he could check on him. The MimicWing padded over to the aqua dragonet as she glanced side to side, then at Sunny, and back to the dragon she called over.
". . .you love Sunny, don't you?"
"I mean, yeah- wait, what?"
"You love Sunny, don't you?" she had repeated, still in a whisper out of respect of privacy.
"Oh, no. . .no. . ." Audio had stopped talking for a minute. Did he? It could explain the "warm feeling" he got when he comforted her.
". . .I-I don't know."
Glory had nodded slowly, "I mean, you're always there for her, you care for her exponentially. I also can tell you feel great, and more 'energized and fueled' so to speak. I saw how close you two were, and I already knew you had to be comforting her more, not that it's a bad thing."
The MimicWing had nodded slowly at this. . .she was right. She was totally right.
"Oh. . .my. . .I-I-" he had stuttered, was he flustered? He didn't know what to say.
Maybe he was in love with her.
"B-but, I mean, it's only been a month or two." Audio said, trying to justify to himself that it this was a bad thing.
A transport had arrived for Webs, in which SeaWing workers pulled the Talon of Peace on a carriage, which was weird to the grey dragonet.
"Audio, it's alright," Glory had reassured, the two were in the back, discussing with eachother about the matter, "It's okay to love dragons."
"But it was just so quick-" he was quickly interrupted, "It happens, Audio. Once again, you're able to love dragons."
The RainWing continued, "Also, for all we know, you may be getting flustered, so, you may feel like you need to say yes. I was just wondering."
"You're completely right though," Audio had said, he was surprised he wasn't able to figure it out on his own, ". . .I mean. . .do you see us together or like anything would happen between us?"
"Yeah. . .slow down a bit." Glory said after he had rushed his words, "First, you must be definitely sure you love her like the way I'm saying. Then, you can ask her to be your girlfriend I guess, but, you also need to think of timing and if its appropriate."
Audio had slowly nodded, ". . .where did you get this advice?"
"I'm just guessing based off what I've read from scrolls." she answered simply.
The carriage ahead stopped, and a guard yelled, "MudWings and SkyWings, on our twelve, four, ten-"
Almost instantly, an explosion went off ahead, and another to the right, another from behind. . .
And an explosion from under the carriage, not only sending the group flying from where they stood, but leaving a large dust cloud. Audio was unable to see anything as he hit the ground, his head especially getting an awful bash from the ground.
Just like that, blackness was all the MimicWing could see.
