"You know, I saw a herd of swimmers nearby," Chomper said, listening to the egg stealer. "And I know there were many eggs."

"We could show you," offered Rita.

Misty thought really hard on what Vayne said, trying to recall. Surely being almost killed by a longneck would stick out in her mind if she was that young and going after eggs...

"Oh!" she recalled, smiling genuinely now, "Yes, the one with three eggs and I wanted to make my parents proud by brining back a lot of eggs...only it was too slow. I was really lucky you showed up" she realized.

"Sorry Mr...um Vayne isn't it?", she hugged his leg, not something she did with sharpteeth a lot if ever.

"Unfortunately I've gotten better at running, being on my own now and all like I said". Misty thought of something, "Say, I was too young to ask last time, how come you can talk like the leave eaters and even us egg snatchers do and not just in the sharptooth growls?" she asked Vayne.

EDIT: She was more confused when the other hatchling spoke to. "Oh...apparently it's a talent around here..." she said. She then smiled at their being so nice to do that. "Really? Hey yeah that might also help with the parents too to have more than just me there...thanks!"

"It's possible to learn another language, it just takes time," Chomper smiled in leafeater. "Of course, sharptooth is a much cooler language," he silently added with a little laugh.

"So, want some eggs?" Aster asked in flatooth. "Me and the other belly draggers are going home, I'm sure we could catch some eggs in addition to meat."

Misty grinned, "You know it!" she answered, "I've been living off of crawlers since their parents aren't a hundred times bigger and don't try to kill you". She frowned a bit, "but...I'd feel bad if you had to face angry parents to get them for me in addition to what your hunting" she told Aster.

"I'd appreciate a few, but don't worry I'm also gonna be independent and take up you guys on semi-hunting my own swimmer eggs that you help me find" she smiled to Chomper and Rita.

"I'll show you where," smiled Rita. "Chomper, you wait for our friends."

"Um, sure," Chompe smiled back, then Rita gave Chomper a big kiss.

"Let's go hunting," Rita smiled

Kit12 · **Reply #785 on:** January 30, 2009, 01:33:20 AM

Misty smiled and followed Rita out. Despite the sharptooth being the one leading, the egg snatcher couldn't help sniffing a bit herself to try and guess at where this nest might be.

"So, which way?" she asked.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #786 on:** January 30, 2009, 02:09:44 AM

Iolite smiled and nodded her head. She then turned to Arius.
"Is there anything you'd like to add to this discussion Arius, before I give my final say?" Iolites voice was caring, but strangely mysterious as she spoke.

Soul took a moment to look at her son's broken and mangled body. She was curious as to why his spirit hadn't left when he died...but she didn't want to raise questions before Longtail's turn so she kept quiet.

tempestwheel · **Reply #787 on:** January 30, 2009, 08:04:55 AM

"Just a short distance this way," Rita pointed. "We'll be there and back within a few minutes."

Kit12 · **Reply #788 on:** January 30, 2009, 12:08:33 PM

Misty skipped ahead, and sniffed once more, "Hey...I think I can pick the scent up!" she said. She moved off but not too fast so as to out walk Rita, she didn't want to face parents all alone or anything.

Soon the nest came in view. "So...do I rush in and grab some?" she asked Rita, "that's what I've always tried because there's no other option, but...is there a safer way?", it felt weird asking a sharptooth these questions but really Misty wasn't sure why it should, she hunted just like them, it's just her target's never ran away, their caretakers just tried to pummel you.

Arius nodded.
"Only one thing. Dante has lived his life to help others. That's all."
He said, looking at his adopted son...

Vayne smiled, looking at Misty.
"We could try distracting the adults and then giving you a chance to get the eggs. That going to work?"
He asked, warmly.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #790 on:** January 30, 2009, 05:08:39 PM

Iolite nodded her head in response.
"well then in this case I have no choice, Dante S. Starfall, based on your actions during your life and with Arius' comments I hereby grant you your life back..." She rached out and tapped Dante on the forehead. "There...once the trials are over, you will be given new life, and you'll be able to see your friends again." said Iolite with a warm cheerful sound in her voice.
She then turned to Kai and commented: "your turn now dear."

"Good, looks like the adults have left," Rita whispered, eyeing little swimmers by themeslefes. "I'll get them, you get the eggs," she smiled

Kit12 · **Reply #792 on:** January 31, 2009, 01:59:32 AM

"Ok" Misty nodded and as Rita moved off, she snuck closer to the nest herself. She peered back a few times to make sure Vayne was still nearby, she was starting to like the idea of his being around to protect her, it was awfully nice of him to do such again after so long.

Content he was there, she turned forward once more and crept closer to the nest with a bit more confidence, peering over the edge. "Oh..." she quickly spotted an egg nearest the edge and hopping over into the nest proceeded to push to get it first up and out of the nest before she could then push it off to a less spottable sight.

She hadn't drawn any of the little hatchlings milling about's attention, but she knew Rita probably soon would and she pushed to try and get the egg out of the nest before she was in the way for Rita's own hunting.

It was soon out and Misty pushed the egg slowly but steadily along the ground back towards where she'd come.

Cayso was still holding Racnar, but he was paying attention and how Chomper was keeping a close look to Rita, Misty and Vaine, he then turned his sight as his brother called him - "What happen, is everything ok?"

"Yes, I'm fine..." - Racnar replied - "... is just that... my dream, it felt so real."
"I know you have this kinds of dreams very often, and I have learned to trust what they say." - Cayso replied with a warm voice - "what was it about?."
Racnar hesitated, he then took a deep breathe before speaking - "It was... about the exodus... and about our real father, he said we will meet one day."
Cayso's eyes opened widly, not knowing really if Chomper or his parents would have listened to that, he whispered to his brother - "Is he alive?" - to that his brother just nodded with his head.

tempestwheel · **Reply #794 on:** February 01, 2009, 01:38:59 AM

"Huh?" asked Chomper and Veli confused. Those two and Chomper's folks were within hearing range. "What are you talking about?" Chomper asked concerned.

Chiletrek · **Reply #795 on:** February 01, 2009, 02:01:02 AM

Racnar felt very nervous because of it means if they know if his real father is still alive. Cayso noticed that and prefered to reply himself to Chomper. - "If there is something I have learned is to trust in my brother's sleep stories, because they always speak the truth. There is a chance that we will see Greyclaw again." - There was sadness in Cayso's eyes, because Greyclaw has caused too much problems already to his friends... too much.

tempestwheel · **Reply #796 on:** February 01, 2009, 02:06:55 AM

"Oh man, that's bad," Chomper said nervously. "But what could we do about it?"

"He can be stopped, right?" asked Veli.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #797 on:** February 01, 2009, 07:17:08 PM

Dante bowed his head.
"Thank you, Iolite. I mean...it's kind of you to give me another chance. I won't make the mistake of throwing that away."
He said, respect and joy in his voice...

Sankakku stepped forward.
"I am ready to face my judgement."
He stated simply, looking down at the ground...

Vayne smiled as Misty managed to escape with the egg, though he scarcely dared to breathe, afraid he would give away her position...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #798 on:** February 01, 2009, 11:12:05 PM

Iolite nodded at Dante and smiled as Sankakku approached.
"Your trial will be just like Dantes'. Now...I know you've spent most of your life running from our judgement, but you were also bonded to Dante for that long period...what have you learned in all that time?" she asked with a monotoned voice.

Kit12 · **Reply #799 on:** February 01, 2009, 11:29:30 PM

Misty glanced up only once as she pushed the egg along, smiling to show her own happiness at how well she was doing and all but say 'see, arent' I doing good', but of course speaking would only ruin everything.

As she continued to push Misty felt a slight rumble and the ground shook a bit. Something...big was in the area and Misty wasn't sure if she would feel better about it being the parents or a non friendly sharptooth.

Maybe it was just passing by in a different direction...she hoped. Nonetheless she pushed faster now, glancing back to see if she could still see Rita and if she was still in any imminent danger...
