"Slightly mad? I guess you mean whoever the owner is." Douglas said, smiling a bit as he found the conversation having some humorous elements to it.

"He'd have to be, to let a flesh eating carnivore live in the bathroom," Sparx said.

---------------------------

"Well, I should probably get back to the kitchen before my friend starts worrying," Kivat said.

Wataru carefully picked up the tray. He looked around in confusion for a few seconds.

"The office is that way," Spyro said, pointing his tail at a doorway.

Douglas looked at Wataru, "You want someone to show you the way to the office or would you rather just go back yourself?" He asked.

"If you wouldn't mind coming along..." Wataru replied.

Sparx looked at Nick. "Really? And I would have thought him to be the more sane one since he is smart enough to leave when things go to heck."

Douglas nodded and stood up.  "I don't mind coming along." He said as he walked over to where Wataru was ready to lead the way back to where the office was.

"Thank you," Wataru said.

At that moment, Kivat came flying back into the room. He stopped and hovered in front of Wataru. "Hey, there are a bunch of other people back in the office."

Dixie and Scooby came up with a pile of plates, at least those that weren't too badly damaged. theres were cracks running through some, and most had chips on the edges, but given the circumstances, a cracked plate, was better than a broken one. The Shurlup babes clung to thier backs, they seemed to be enjoying themselves, as they were flashing toothy grins, which showed rows of small, pointy, discolored teeth. "Rit's roilk ror rou" Scooby said to the Shurlup on his back. "And you are getting your teeth brushed' Dixie said to her passenger.

Nice work Stripetail said, now about midway thrpugh the autopsy. He had already discovered the cause of death, the poson Cynder  had hit her with had seeped through the cuts on her body, and overwhelmed her internal defenses, as noted by the discoloring of the liver, and two of the three organs which he would for now clasify as "kidneys" The poison glands were located above the kidneys, and there were smaller ones in each arm. the claws were hollow , like hypodermic needles. Poison could easily be transmitted through scratches.

Lets go get oyur friends their breakfast. Stripetail, you can join us, once you're finished examining the shurlup mother." Nick said, as he walked out of the kitchen.

Wataru and Kivat followed after Nick, Wataru with the platter of food.

Sparx dashed ahead of the group, eager to get out back to the safety of the office, while Spyro and Cynder stayed back with Stripetail.

"You're not going to be very long, are you?" Spyro asked.

Not very long, I shouldn't think. " stripetail Replied. "Cynder, your poison did a number on this Shurlup. Now, It is possible that her condition, being injured anf pregnant played a role as well, her body's immune sustem was not where it would have been normally. It is possible that had she been healthy that your poison would not have killed her. " He looked at Cynder then at Spyro, who looked a little green as he stared at the internal organs of the Shurlup. "Not easy to look at , is it? And it smells, by the eternal, does it smell! But to learn something, you must sometimes gets your paws dirty. I do not know everything, my young dragon friends, Omniescence is reserved for the eternals who I serve. I know much, of course, but there is yet much I do not. "

Douglas helped to carry food or beverages back to the office.  He found a good place to set down what he was carrying near the rest of the stuff.  

"At least we may have an additional weapon that may be able to be used." Douglas said.

"That's probably true," Cynder admitted. Back in her homeworld it took more then just one ball of poison to take down a grublin.

"Ew," was the only remark Spyro offered.

-----------

Wataru carefully set the tray of food in the middle of the room where everyone would be able to reach it.

"I'm Wataru," he introduced himself.

Talon's eyes gleamed with joy as the food finally came.  "Thanks for bringing the food, Wataru," he replied.  "I'm Talon, and my human friend over there with a new scar on his shoulder is Kenji."

Kenji glared at the raptor as he stood up...

I'm Ali" Ali said smiling. "pleased to meet you" The longneck rose from where she was sitting and waited for Wataru to bring her some greens.

It is not a plesant thing, to cut up someone or something , and look at their insides. But this Shurlups insides are not so different from yours or mine. Sure, you may have wings, where she or I do not. But on the whole, we are not as different as you may think." Stripetail said.

Douglas looked at the food and drink then at those present.  "Who would like some breakfast.  There should be enough if everyone shares." He said, not finding the idea of autopsy very pleasant, but seeing the need for it in certain circumstances.

Kivat lowered himself toward the plate and snatched up a sausage with his talons. The piece of meat was almost as big as the bat himself and was all he would need for a while.

"It's nice to meet you," Wataru said. He didn't seem too shocked to see the dinosaurs.

-----------------

"Are you ready to go?" Spyro asked.

SWtripetail sewed up the Shurlup with a thread. then covered the body with Mithril. "Now, I'm ready/ Let's go. Cynder, if you would, tell me a bot about yourself. Spyro has already told me a little about himself. Now it is your turn."

Ducky & Petrie went to where the food was.  "We would like some breakfast, if there is enough, we would, we would."

Petrie nods, "looks like there is." Petrie said.

Douglas looked at the food and waved across it, "There's enough, choose what you like." He said.  Ducky and Petrie picked out some of what they'd like and Ducky took a bit extra to give to Skitter.  

"Thanks." Ducky said.

"Me thank too." Petrie said.

"Um... sure," Cynder replied. "I was kidnapped before I even hatched. My captors did some pretty bad things to me and Spyro saved me later."

Spyro didn't look back as he led the way back to the office. Cynder wasn't exactly telling the whole story, but she wasn't lying either.

------------------------------

Kivat had landed on the desk and was chewing on the piece of sausage he had.

Wataru had moved to a corner of the room and was watching the group.
