"Where's Luna?" Swordtail asked, his mind racing with fear. Maybe it was just the darkness of the cave, maybe she was in another cavern. He tried to ignore the flashbacks that came through his mind of her silk carrying her away in stormy gusts. He clutched the seaweed on his neck and ripped it off.
"I don't know," Cricket admitted. "I saw her silk get caught in the wind and carry her out to sea, but Blue's Metamorphisis was starting, so I had to bring him down here. I don't know what happened next. What did you see? What happened to you?"
Swordtail's heart sank into the rocks below and he rubbed his forehead. "I tried to follow her-but the storm-" He frantically stumbled towards the door, guilt rising in his chest as he raced towards the entrance. "I have to go find her!"
"Shouldn't you rest for a bit first?" Cricket spoke again, in that annoying matter of factly voice she used all the time. "Sundew says it's pouring outside. And you were just unconcious-" Swordtail growled lowly at the Hivewing, but she didn't seem to notice.
"Don't be a skunk cabbage," Sundew said, as she sulked in her corner, her tail lashing. "You're entirely useless to any dragon in the state your in."
Her words seemed to weigh down on him as Swordtail struggled for the words. "But-" He slumped to the floor, his wings aching as he sighed inwardly.
"Look for her tomorrow," Cricket suggested. I will. He thought fiercely. I won't give up on you Luna, not ever.
