Hova lead Tiffany, Kreela, and Fugax to Zoc's quarters. Zoc's quarters were full of odd bits and pieces. It had some makeshift table and chairs as well as shelves with various odd colored rocks, plants, and minerals and another shelf had a few dozen little bottles of liquid, which must have been potions. Tiffany was fascinated by all the things in Zoc's quarters. It felt like something from Harry Potter or something you would see in a fantasy world. Tiffany also wondered if magic exited in the insect world did that actually mean there was real magic out in the human world somewhere and it just hadn't been discovered or was kept secret? That was something worth checking out once Tiffany returned to her normal size and home.
Zoc himself was standing and mixing liquids into a hollowed out rock he used as a makeshift cauldron. Zoc's pet firefly, Spindle flew next to him and would fetch plants and other ingredients for him. Zoc looked up from his work and though he smiled at Hova, that smile quickly faded away as he saw Tiffany.
"Zoc, there is a great danger coming our way that threatens the entire colony and only Tiffany can prevent it." Said Hova.
"What danger?" Asked Zoc.
"The Cloudbreather. Tiffany has seen him and he will be here in a few days. Tiffany says she can stop him, but she needs to be returned to her normal size and home to do that." Said Hova.
"Oh really? You expect me to believe that not only is the Cloudbreather real and on his way here, but the Destroyer is the one that can save us?" Said Zoc.
"Yes! It's real! I've seen the Cloudbreather before being shrunk and he is way worse then I was when I attacked the colony! The Cloudbreather will kill everyone here!" Said Tiffany.
"Oh please can't you see this is all a trick! The Destroyer must have seen the mural of the Cloudbreather and realized our fear of him and now she is making up a story to get my potion to restore herself to her normal size, so she can be free and take revenge on us!" Said Zoc with glare at Tiffany.
"What?! That's not true!" Cried Tiffany.
"Nice try human, but you're not getting the potion." Said Zoc.
"Zoc! Tiffany is telling the truth!" Said Hova.
"That's what she wants you to think. The Destroyer is taking advantage of you Hova and that's going to kill you." Said Zoc.
"Well your hatred and prejudice is going to get the whole colony killed! You are so blinded by your hate that you aren't even listening to what we are saying or considering that there's a real threat coming!" Yelled Hova.
"I am a wizard and I make no mistakes! The human is not getting the potion! I will deal with any threat real or imaginary! Now leave!" Yelled Zoc.
"You are being very foolish." Muttered Hova as she and the others left the chamber.
"Well that lead to nothing. What now?" Said Fugax.
"I need to head into my home. I might not be full size, but if I can get the attention of any of my family members, I can get them to call the Cloudbreather off." Said Tiffany with a determined look on her face.
"Alright then we will help you out. I always wants to see the inside of a human home." Said Kreela.
"And Tiffany I'm sorry about what Zoc said." Said Hova.
"It's...ok. I get he's mad at me for what I did in the past. I just have to prove he's wrong about me." Said Tiffany.
"Alright time for a adventure! We leave at dawn!" Declared Fugax.
The plan was made and the little group found a chamber to sleep in as they waited for the sun to rise.
