(Continued from the Part 1 Recap)

the group wakes up the next morning and is given a ship as a gift from the wendigos. Elizabeth gives her goodbyes to her family and follows the group out of Uncharted Territory. the group goes down the river, sailing at night and stopping to train during the day. Iris tells the group the story of how her parents and brother died, and the group acknowledges that if she dies, she doesn't want her body left behind.

more information is revealed about the zodiacs and their powers. its revealed that the groups weapons are unable to harm other zodiacs, or anyone that they don't have the intent to hurt. Rebecca summons her weapon, a slingshot, and finds it can knock people unconscious without hurting them. also, human zodiacs have enhanced senses based on their element. Fire - Smell, earth - feeling, water - sight, & air - hearing.

there's a lot of random scenes that don't add too much to the story, mainly filling in plot holes and adding information.

Amber and Keith believe that Iris could be the traitor. Keith keeps a notebook of information about the zodiacs and Amber believes that its a bad idea to keep it. there's also some self-worth moments throughout this.

tensions rise between Ash and Amber, as Ash notices that Amber and Keith are hiding something. in their argument, Ash scares Nolan a bit, reminding Nolan of Ash's father, who has some vaguely mentioned past with the two. its also revealed that Clementine trust issues come from when she was kidnapped as a child. Also, its officially mentioned that Ash and Nolan are lovers.

Surely enough, the notebook goes missing and is found by Keith in Iris's bag, raising suspicion. during this time, Rebecca tells Elizabeth that Iris is not a fairy, and immediately regrets it. Rebecca overhears Amber and Keith talking about the notebook, and Keith knows this and they ask Rebecca to help them keep an eye on Iris and keep the secret.

the group arrives at the coastal city of Petana and splits up to get supplies and other things. they recruit Jest, a dragon, to help them sail across the ocean to Abbadon. she invites the group to a party that night and the group tags along, Amber keeping an eye on Iris as she and Brianna dance. once they are done dancing, Brianna tells Amber the story of how they met.

the next morning, through several hangovers, its revealed that Amber likes Carson, Rebecca likes Alex, and both Clementine and Elizabeth seem to be interested in George. some of their cultures are discussed, as well as the fact that Elizabeth was 'marked' by a male and unable to mate with anyone else of her species. Rebecca is not too much of a romantic, and Amber is too much of a romantic. Iris already rejected Brianna, and can only mate once. no one can touch her hair or feathers unless they are family or a mate, and if she loses any feathers, she gets thrown off balance and will take out feathers on the other side to retain it.

the group set off across the ocean with Jest and there was a stowaway on the ship, a vampire. in the way the group didn't work together or really cooperate, the boy got away and chaos ensued. (this one is easier to read yourself then explain; its chapter 2.9 -Chaos.)

the group arrived at Abbadon and set up camp. Carson and Amber take a walk on a beach and Amber mentions feeling like she's not alone when she summons her weapons. Brianna sees the two chatting and teases them about flirting. when the three go back to camp, Elizabeth is in a bad mood and storms off.

The next morning, a large portion of the group is in a bad mood and the buildup of tension between Ash and Amber finally boils over. Ash threatens to leave if Amber doesn't reveal whatever secret she's been keeping, and when she still refuses, Ash leaves, the other water signs and Earth signs following with him.

Nearly Immediately, Amber's group is attacked and Keith is captured Amber nearly has a breakdown about Keith, but Iris urges her to lead the team to save him and come up with a plan. Keith has a talk with Zach (the villains name is actually Zach, another thing from chapter 2.9) about the Zodiacs and Zach confirms that there is a traitor, but he won't say who it is. Also, Keith throws a knife at Zach, and Zach makes a mention that Keith is fully trained in every weapon the Zodiacs use. It's also suggested by Keith that Iris may not have been the traitor at all.

Amber's group enters the castle, which seems to be set up to be prepared for them and separates the group.

The group finds each other again in front of the throne room (Boss music starts playing) and Keith comes running, having escaped from Zach's guards. Brianna and Iris do not show up to the group, so they go in without them, suspecting that Iris took Brianna and left. They enter the room to face Zach and the rest of the Group finds out about the traitor. Amber promises not to keep any more secrets.

Its revealed to Iris that the traitor is actually Brianna, who was giving Zach information to keep Iris safe. When Iris insists on going back to help the others, Brianna tries to drag her out of the castle. Iris fights Brianna as much as she can, and tells her she will never forgive her, before breaking out of her grasp and flying to help the others.

when she gets to the battle, she pushed Amber out of the way of a flying spike from Zach. the spike takes out a large chunk of her feathers, making it impossible for her to fight, or even stand. the group continues fighting, not gaining any ground on Zach. Iris saves Amber once again, after forcefully ripping an even amount of feathers out of her other arm. he gets pissed off when the team manages to surround him and shoots spikes out in all directions. Amber gets a spike in her leg, and Zach smiles and walks to his throne.

amber realizes that one of the spikes went through Iris, who, in shock, steps off the edge of the platform they were fighting on. she falls, and Alex dives after her but is unable to catch her. they don't feel a pulse so they take her back up to the platform to get help from the others. Carson tries resuscitation but Keith stops him when he realizes that her Gemini mark is gone.

amber gets up and uses super bow powers and glowing eyes to blow Zach into next week and make the entire castle collapse. Alex, subsequentially, is forced to leave Iris body behind.

the rest of the team finds the battle-tired part and learns what happened. Amber sucker punches Brianna who doesn't react and instead just walks away without a word.

Amber says that they didn't win this battle.
