Audio groaned as his eyes slid open softly, he glanced around. It was dark, the only light coming from the moon that remained high in the sky. He looked away from the window, and in the chair that remained at the end of his bed, was a sleeping Sunny. He noticed that she now wore jet black arm sleeves that went from her wrist to her elbow. A soft smile crept upon his face.

He rolled onto his back, and the MimicWing rubbed his eyes. He couldn't believe it- he essentially lost a leg! He sighed as he turned on his left side, looking at the light that shined through the window. Audio was able to see that his scales were a dark grey in color, with the normal light grey appearing in short dapples.

He needed to know if everyone was okay, where was Lilac and the others? We're any of them hurt too? He pushed away the thought of any them being dead. . .he wouldn't be able to stand that. He was glad to know that Glory was alright, and as well for Sunny-

A loud gasp of breath came from the other side of the room. Audio turned at what felt like the speed of sound, and he saw Sunny in the chair, a claw on her chest as a few tears came from her eyes.

She was having another panic attack, Audio concluded, "S-Sunny!" he whispered to her as he got out of his bed, in which he instantly stumbled and almost fell against the wall.

The SandWing took notice after a few seconds. More tears started to stream as she quickly hugged the MimicWing, in which he was taken by surprise.

". . .I-I missed you too," he said, a great, hot feeling washing over him, ". . .are you alright?" he asked quietly, straightening up a bit as he leaned against the wall.

"I. . .I d-don't know. . ." she wheezed slightly, "I want to sleep. . .I constantly feel tired. . .a-and I just can't. . ." she sniffed a bit as she rubbed her talons against her eye, ". . .I feel as if I'm constantly being watched by him. . ."

"Wait a minute . .him?" Audio was slightly confused, though, Sunny looked very disturbed by this "him". He hesitated, but grabbed her left claw softly, "who are you talking about?"

Sunny sniffed once again, looking at Audio with the green eye, in which the sight never got old to him. She sighed as noticed the two's claw-contact. The SandWing didn't pull away, which made the MimicWing exceptionally happy.

"W-well. . .a few months back, the five of us, Glory, Clay, Starflight, Clay, me- lived in s-some cave with our caretakers, who made sure we would make the o-original prophecy true. . .w-well, no-one besides Webs was happy t-that Glory came along instead of a SkyWing. . ."

"Because Glory was a RainWing. . ."

"S-so. . .a few months before our escape, one of the caretakers, Kestrel, left on day- and brought back a SkyWing dragonet by the name of Incinerate. . .h-he was awful. He was r-rude to us, threatened to hurt us, though- he had an interest in m-me. . .a really- r-really big interest.

"It was his first night. . .a-and. . .he asked if- if. . .um, I wanted to go on a walk around the cave system. . .t-though, he didn't have that intent, as he w-was really. . .s-suggestive. A-after I said no, h-he suddenly got really angry. . .h-he tried to hold me down after I-I said no a second time. . .he a-almost. . ." Sunny then quietly burst into tears, in which Audio sighed sympathetically. He slowly stepped closer to the sitting SandWing, and hugged her.

". . .h-he almost did it- y-yet, Tsunami saved me in time. . .so n-nothing could happen to me. . .he promised that some instinct had taken over him. . .b-but, that wasn't true. The next night, he woke me up. . .a-and proceeded to h-hit me- assault me. . .h-he said he would hurt everyone I knew, and would m-make my life miserable if I told anyone. . .s-so I didn't. . ."

Audio was appalled, he carefully pulled his SandWing friend closer to him, ". . .I know w-what he said is scary, but. . .you should've told someone. If anybody says or does something to you that you don't like. . .tell someone."

Sunny sniffed as she rubbed her eyes again, "H-he did it for a w-whole week. . .one. whole. week. . .t-the rest noticed, and told Webs. . .h-he was angry. . .he told the other c-caretakers. . .in which they actually were mad too. . .t-they got rid of him quickly, I-I don't know how, but they did. . ." She seemed done with her story as another wave of quiet sobs escaped her. Audio didn't know what to do, but to simply stand and be by her side.

Then, he thought.

". . .c-can I teach you a song, Sunny?"

The SandWing let out a sniff as she looked up slightly, a tear still remaining on her cheek. Audio hesitated, but, he reached and carefully wiped it off, in which he pulled himself back a bit, "I-I'm sorry- it's just-"

"I-It's okay. . ." Sunny interrupted him, a faint smile appearing on her face as she rubbed her eyes a bit herself. She glanced away slightly, before returning her watery gaze back towards him.

"Well," Audio started quietly, "The beginning part begins with this- s-say it after me, alright?"

The SandWing slowly nodded, in which the MimicWing started out in the immitation of the singer of the song, Aloe Blacc, "Feelin' my way through the darkness."

Sunny repeated the words, in which Audio was shocked on how it came out. Her voice was wonderful even if she wasn't trying to sing, her voice was gorgeous.

"You have a beautiful voice, Sunny. . ."

"T-thank you, Audio. . .you do too."

The two glanced away from eachother, Audio getting the warm feeling again- it didn't feel bad, if anything, it felt great.

"Guided by a beatin' heart. . ." Audio said as Sunny repeated the lyrics, "I can't tell where the journey will end, but I know where to start-"

Audio's remaining leg slipped, and the MimicWing went to the floor, Sunny gasped and helped lift her friend up. She moved him back onto his bed, in which the grey dragonet was thankful, ". . .I guess we should continue at another time?"

"Yes. . .t-thank you, so much, Audio."

Audio smiled as he rolled to his side, and he watched Sunny go back to the chair, which he now realized that it reclined a bit so she could rest a bit better. He slowly snuck into a slumber as he thought, I think I'm in love with Sunny. . .and that's okay. . .
