Morpho bolted from Veneen’s office. Xey ran down the twisting palace corridors until xey spotted Mango, who was still trying to flee down the hall. Without a word, Morpho scooped the tiny bat up onto xir back, rushed toward the nearest balcony, and took lift-off straight into the stormy night air. "What did you do?" Mango squeaked, clutching onto xir scales for dear life. Morpho completely ignored the question, focusing all xir energy on flying as fast as xir wings could carry them. Mango was a bat and was entirely used to high speeds, but he had never traveled through the sky this fast in his entire life. "Morpho... please don't ignore me," Mango said. "Did I do something wrong?" Morpho glanced back at Mango "I just made Veneen very mad..." "Oh..." Mango mumbled. Suddenly, a chill ran straight down Mango's spine. It felt exactly like someone watching him through the clouds. Deciding that Morpho clearly had a lot on xir mind, Mango went quiet and tucked himself close to keep safe. (Switching perspective) Back in the palace, Veneen finally got himself together. He sprinted wildly toward his office window, letting out a growl as he scanned the dark skies for Morpho. Realizing where xey must have gone, Veneen ran down to Mango's cell and violently broke the heavy door open with a huge CRASH. "MANGO! WHERE ARE YOU HIDING?!" Veneen shouted. He didn't get an answer. He smells aggressively. He had completely lost Mango's scent. They were gone. He was furious, but then a grin stretched across his snout. He didn't need Mango specifically to save his species. If he couldn't use Mango to guide him, he would just find the other bats himself. He immediately tsent his troops to the Woodlands. Hundreds of dragons filled the sky. Veneen joined the front of the formation. Mango’s colony was in grave danger. Meanwhile, Tulun and Jelu were having a good time over at Tulun's house in the village. But the mood was ruined the moment Jelu looked out the window. She noticed the dragon troops leaving the kingdom. She stared in shock, wondering what on earth could have triggered such a massive deployment. Suddenly, a heavy knocking rattled Tulun’s front door. Redu had come running all the way to Tuluns house, hitting the door repeatedly without stopping. Tulun opened the door. "What?" she asked, annoyed. Redo takes a giant deep breath... "THEY ARE GOING TO FIND MANGO'S COLONY!!!" Redu shouted. Tulun looked at Jelu, and Jelu looked at her. They don't know what Veneen could possibly want from Mango. All they knew was that he was in danger. They had to stop him. Collab with you guessed it!!! *drums* XD
