Galaxy, Hibiscus, and Fennec ran as they heard the sound of dragons charging after them. Galaxy didn't know if Burrow was fine, but that didn't matter. It least they were able to escape. The hybrid dragonet looked over at Hibiscus and noticed how scared and worried she looked. He knew that Hibiscus would never hurt a dragon unless told to, but killing a dragon was much different. She didn't even know Burrow was dead or not. The only dragons that saw her stab Burrow in the eye was Sandstone, the SkyWing dragont, the MudWing dragonet, and Fennec. Fennec was the only one with them.
'What was that? Why did the spear just fly off the wall and stab my father in the eye?" Fennec gasped as she looked over at them.
Hibiscus looked over as she ran. "Well, um, I'm the first really known animus RainWing. I found out when we were in that room being locked. Since Galaxy knew, he asked me to use the spear. I was aiming for Sandstone's tail, but I lost control and hit Burrow in the eye instead."
"Wait, but animus blood spreads on from time to time. If there isn't any animus RainWings, then Hibiscus can't have animus powers." Fennec replied back as she kept on running.
"We'll deal with it later! Just keep on running! There's dragons behind us trying to kill or imprison us!" hissed Galaxy loudly.
The three dragonets continued to run as the sounds of the dragons got slowly louder. Galaxy looked behind him, but he couldn't see anything. There were all far away since they got the lead start. Even know running was only going to corner them, but they could come up with a plan. They would have to make it quickly before they get into a dead end.
"We need to hide somewhere. We then can wait for the guards chasing us to pass by, then we can go try to find somewhere to escape. We just have to look out for the dragonets and Sandstone , along with everyone else. Well, we avoid everyone to be honest." Galaxy told Hibiscus and Fennec.
"But where? There isn't any rooms. Plus, when the first room shows up and stop hearing us running, they're going to check." whispered Hibiscus.
"The doors are actually blend into the wall. It's just that no one uses them and they're all empty." Fennec broke in and replied.
"Is there one nearby?" asked Hibiscus.
Fennec nodded as she stopped and scratched her claws against the wall. A small slab pushed out and open. Then a mud-dried brown door opened wide. All there was in darkness in the room. Galaxy noticed that there was scratch marks on the door and it wouldn't close completely. Someone would notice it and check it. They had to blend in to the darkness and hope no one runs into them and calls for the guards to come back. The three dragonets ran in. The SandWing dragonet quickly closed the door the best they could, but It had more scratch marks on it.
"Okay, we're in. Now we have to hide and wait." Hibiscus whispered.
Hibiscus quickly changed all of her scales to match the darkness. Her scales were all black. The RainWing dragonet closed her eyes as she got down to the ground. She blended in quickly into her surroundings. Hibiscus then slithered into the corner and made herself low to the ground. Galaxy didn't even notice where she is until Hibiscus blinked. Now only Fennec and Galaxy had to hide.
"I have an idea. Maybe you can cover me with your wing and I'll be able to be hidden while you're hidden." Fennec quickly whispered.
"But it's impossible for me to blend in! I don't how to disappear into shadows like a NightWing or change their scales like a RainWing. I'm just some hybrid who can't do anything!" whispered back Galaxy. "I can't do anything!'
"Then actually try to do something! Try changing your scales like Hibiscus! It least change your green scales black!" the SandWing dragonet hissed at him.
Galaxy held still as he tensed himself. He tensed all of his muscles and kept on telling himself to change his scales. All he wanted to do what change his scales black. Fennec watched him with her blank expression. He knew that it meant that his green small stripes on his black and scales under his wings were still the same color. Nothing changed, but Galaxy tried again. All of a sudden, the sound of dragons running were heard. Galaxy lost his tense, but held his gasp of air and only let it out quietly. The two dragonets were doomed if they stayed like this.
"Come here! I want cover you with my wings!" Hibiscus called over to them quietly.
Galaxy and Fennec quickly ran over. The RainWing dragonet quickly spread open his wings. Galaxy quickly curled up and went under Hibiscus's wings. Hibiscus then covered him with her wing. Fennec then poked out her tail behind Hibiscus so she wouldn't stab Hibiscus anywhere. Her tail was curled around her and nowhere around Hibiscus. The RainWing then covered her wing over the SandWing dragonet. The three dragonets were all hidden and no dragon could see them. Galaxy it least hoped that.
"Hey, there's scratch marks on that. Do you think those dragonets went in here and hid in here? They do have that SandWing who knows a lot about this place. It seems like they would try to hide in there, for being a SandWing, RainWing, and weird-looking dragonet." a voice was suddenly heard.
"Maybe. Want to check before we go catch up with the others?" another voice asked.
"Sure." the first voice answered back.
Galaxy squinted his eyes so he could see out below Hibiscus's wings. The faint light shined out from the door, but no enough to show them. The two SkyWings closed the door on their way in. Their orange scales gave out a faint shine until the doors closed. The darkness all came back. The three dragonets stopped their breathing and went silent. The SkyWings looked around. Galaxy noticed that they were young, slightly over the age of a normal dragonet. Galaxy guessed there were it least around the age of nine.
"I don't see anything from here." the first SkyWing commented as they scanned around the dark room.
Galaxy slightly smirked. Even know they weren't dragonets, they were just as dumb as some of them. The SkyWings continued to scan the room, not even thinking about the thought of using their fire or actually walking toward them. The two SkyWings shrugged and walked off. They opened their door and walked off, closing it on the way out. Galaxy opened his eyes and took a deep breath. Hibiscus quickly uncovered them and silently walked over to the door. She looked out. Galaxy and Fennec slowly stood up.
Hibiscus looked over at them. "They're out of my sight, but they're still running in that direction. I can also hear the guards running off in their direction. We should go now and try to find the exit."
Galaxy and Fennec nodded. Hibiscus opened the door as she slipped out. The three dragonets ran out of the dark room. Fennec quickly shoved the door making in its place. The SandWing dragonet then used her wing to cover the marks with the mud that was scrapped off. Fennec then folded her wings and placing them at her side. The three dragonets then ran off in the oppsite direction of the guards.
