After all that drama, I really thought I was going to be able to get some sleep.
Seriously. I was that tired… all I wanted to do was sleep a few good hours.
And I was sick to death of all this love crappadoodles.
Can you say 'not gonna happen?'
I was deep in this dream, one where I was back in Australia, when a loud thump at my window jolted me awake. I bolted up in my bed, disorientated for a few seconds, before I remembered where I was.
(Jade, if you're in there… ow!)
I dove over to the window, somehow managing to get my foot caught in the sheets, ending up slamming face-first on my carpet. I got up, making it to my window after untangling myself from my sheets, then opened the window. I looked down…
"Crap! Tobias!" I hissed as I saw him weakly flapping his wings and coming up to me.
(I thought your window was open!) he almost sounded like he was mad, but at who I didn't know.
"And I thought you were a smart bird" I whispered as I backed up for him to come through my window, landing on my bed. He morphed, then demorphed, looking at me with laser intensity.
(Thanks. Anyway, Ax wanted me to get you. He said Ithiell contacted him and that he'll be dropping Rtaia off in an hour or so. That was about fifteen minutes or so ago, I think)
"Ok. Right. Amanda better have gotten her a dress and that for her human form, or Rachel will end up killing her" I muttered as I shoved on some jeans, then waited for Tobias to hop onto the windowsill and turn around before I changed into a light blue skivvy.
(Why uh…)
"Because she almost killed me with her shopoholic attitude, and I'm human!" I ignored the strange tone in his voice when I mentioned Rachel, focusing on becoming a barn own before flapping up and sitting on the bed.
(Shall we go?)
(Yep. Come on) he let go of the sill, pitched forward, and took off into the night. I followed him.
We flew on silently, until I couldn't stand it anymore.
(All right Tobias, what exactly is going on with you and Rachel? Why won't you go with her to the dance?)
(I… uh… well… that two hour thing…)
(Well as long as you get to spend time with her it shouldn't matter! So what's the real reason Mr Bird-boy?)
(Mr?) he chuckled, changing direction slightly.
(Don't get smart with me Tobias! I've just about HAD IT with all SIX OF YOU! Now come on, spill!)
I think I caught him off-guard. He made some weird noises, like he wasn't sure what to say to me, then sighed sadly.
(I'm a bird Jade. What else can I say?)
I growled at him. He'd woken me up AND he wouldn't answer me.
Wouldn't you be just a wee bit frustrated?
Well I was a little more than that.
We flew on in silence until we reached Tobias's meadow, where we landed and I shifted back.
"Where's Ax?"
(At his scoop. He can't miss all this favourite commercials. Especially 'these messages')
I snorted, but leaned against the tree Tobias was on, sitting down and getting comfortable. This might take a while.
After an hour I got worried.
"They did say an hour, didn't they?"
(Yeah. Maybe we got the message wrong)
"Probably not. Maybe… do you think you'd be able to see them if you… you know?"
(Maybe. My eyes aren't as good at night, but the moons pretty bright, so… maybe) He flapped his wings and took off, flapping upwards.
Seconds later it looked like he'd hit a wall.
And… he went tumbling.
"TOBIAS!"
Nothing. He was falling…
I bolted up and ran to where he was falling, hoping I'd catch him in time. I ran, he fell, and…
Whoomph!
I caught him, going head over heels in the process and ending up kneeling in the dirt, a small dust cloud forming where I was suddenly in a kneeling position. I cracked my neck a little… that tumble was bad… but…
"Tobias? Are you ok?"
(Mmph… huh? Oh… yeah, fine…) He stated to morph, because his wing was obviously broken, and I put him down and stepped back, looking up.
There was a shimmer, and it was suddenly there. The Chanaiben fighter.
It quickly landed, and the hatch opened. Ithiell bolted out seconds later.
"My god… is he ok?" Ithiell looked panicked, his big green eyes wide with fear.
"He's fine. What… didn't you…"
"No. I didn't… he just popped up out of no-where! I didn't even have time to adjust my settings!"
"I'm fine Ithiell. Don't worry about it. I've had worse…" Tobias, now temporarily human, said.
"Well, at least you're still alive" Ithiell sighed, dropping his head then looking back up at me.
"Well? Where is she?"
"Here" Rtaia stepped daintily out, carrying a small bag as she did. She looked a little confused…
"Is… is Aximili around?"
"No, not around here" Tobias was already starting to demorph.
"Oh. I will… see him at the dance, will I not?"
"Yes Rtaia, you'll see him there" I grinned, taking her bag for her "Now, lets just take you back to my place, all right"
"Very well" She shared a look with Ithiell.
"Tuvia miuala"
"Dia jiiua" Ithiell responded to her, then gave me a quick hug before getting back in the fighter and taking off.
It was only then that Tobias dared fly back up to his perch.

AHAAA! RTAIA HAS ARRIVED!
Now, what shall Jade do about all this love?
