Symphony - Ch6 A look of panick struck Feather’s face as questions raced to her mind, but the first question she asked.. “Dusty!? WHAT HAPPENED?” “I was looking for my pack.. i stopped to drink.. but then the phantoms came and.. they.. poisoned..” Dusty was gasping for breath, he was weak and tired. Behind Feather, Alec, and Dusty.. the bushes rustled. Out emerged Alec’s father. “I KNEW IT! ALEC GET OUT OF HERE SON.. ITS ALL HER FAULT!” “But DAD-,” Alec started. “She- SHE WAS WITH ME THE WHOLE TIME AND WE JUST GOT HERE!” Feather didnt want to jump into conclusions and looked at Alec’s father thoughtfully. “So..,” feather said. “Whats your name..?” “Pierce. And everything about me is none of your business.” “Look.. i know youre a half phantom. Why else would you be wearing gloves to just throw dust, you have bandages, and armor. Overall phantoms are just vulnerable. Why do you hate phantoms?” “Because.. ,” Pierce stopped realizing what he was about to say. Alec gave his father a pleading look and he continued.. “Fine. My father.. is a phantom. and he is the phantom that introduced evil to the phantom dimension. Im a half phantom.. the reason i hate phantoms is.. They just wont change” Feather was offended, she spoke in a tone that seemed like she was about to attack, “YOU- YOU NEVER TRIED! IM NOT EVIL, YOU’RE JUST SO.. SO NAIVE!” Pierce looked down, he seemed to understand. Dusty was injured, Alec was too confused, Pierce was clueless, and Feather.. Meanwhile from behind, a star - patterned flying fox darted in, it was Starprint. She was bigger then most flying foxes, she had an eyepatch, and a pirate earring. She tilted her head at Feather, and she understood. Feather then transformed into her eagle form. Starprint gazed behind her, “so.. those are your new friends?” “Yes..” “The phantoms are lose.” “I know.” “So.. what will we do about it?” “Wait, where’s the rest of the crew?” “Captured by phantoms.” Feather stared, she was surprised. Starprint may be the most powerful but all the phantoms together.. And she was more scared at the thought of the pirate crew. Dusty, Alec, Pierce looked at Starprint and Feather hopefully. “..i-“ feather began, “I was looking for a home on shore, when im not on the ocean.. we knew eachother for just 3 days or less and a few hours but.. i feel like i can trust you. Because.. when im with you, i’ve been hearing symphonies. But before all i heard was silence, a rapsody for you and me.. but every melody is timeless. And..” She looked at them, a glimmer of hope shone in her eyes.. “I just, want to be part of your symphony.” Starprint smiled, “But.. how will the five of us defeat a whole army of phantoms?” Feather tilted her head, “well.. do we even know ALL of them are out yet? They probably only sent a few soldiers. There are over millions of phantoms..” Dusty was amazed, “But.. only 100 came out of the portal. Well, more then that but definetely not a million.” Feather’s heart missed a beat, “Then.. maybe they’re planning something.. something way worse..” Pierce raised his paw, “Ugh- so- like.. wouldnt it be better to just find a hideout for the time being? We had enough for the day.” He rolled his eyes and glanced at Feather. She nodded, and motioned them to follow her. And she led them to a cave.. The cave was cozy and decorated. Squeezy and well hidden. “Well..” feather said, “here it is.. i stayed here when i first came to the animal world. Then i met the pirates, left.. built the nature inn, and- you know the rest..” Starprint chuckled, Pierce just lay down, Alec sat down and grabbed some water, and Dusty lay down. Feather used her powers to try to heal Dusty, but the phantom magic was stronger then what she was used to. Who knows when the phantoms would find their hiding place, they might as well be there for months yet to come.
