Cactus was absolutely furious. Her deep black eyes showed no emotion, but the smoke coming for her nostrils told otherwise. Though her face was scrunched with frustration, she was still very beautiful. She was a metallic off-white, with a criss crossing diamond pattern going across her back. The SandWing radiated elegance and intelligence.

As she was about to slam her head into the wall of her home, she finally remembered. "That's where Harpie is!" she yelled. "Maybe those dungeons that Burn made for me weren't a waste after all." In a flash, she has flown out the door towards the Claws of the Clouds Mountains. Her pace was quick and soon enough, she landed on one of its peaks.

Instead of going on the side where the SkyWings resided, she went towards a cave on the other side. After searching for a bit, she whispered, "Finally." There, in the cave, she heard the scratching of talons, and when she landed, a hiss. "Who are you?!" the voice screeched. "Hello, Harpie," Cactus stated calmly. "I'm Cactus, and I've come to save you, as long as you help me."

The RainWing landed gracefully in front of the hidden oasis, and knocked lightly on the door. As Cactus opened it, they went invisible, and held their breath. "Tangerine?" Cactus asked the air. Tangerine rippled into existence from behind Cactus, before pinning the SandWing to the ground, and carefully avoided her barbed tail. "Wow, impressive skills," stated Cactus softly. "Especially for a RainWing."

Tangerine hopped off of her. "Thank you," they replied. "So why do you want me here?" "I brought you here to try to find me more hybrids. Not only that, I may or may not have enrolled you for Jade Mountain, and may or may not have gotten you accepted." "What?!" Tangerine screamed, her scales turning a vibrant red.

"Relax!" Cactus answered. "I only enrolled you to see if any hybrids would be there. If nothing happens, I'll just un-enroll you." Tangerine scoffed. "Fine," they stated. "I accept." "Once we get enough hybrids, we can kill Thorn, get her treasure, and then I'll pay you handsomely." "Treasure sounds wonderful," Tangerine hissed.
