That night, when the girls patiently waited for Raven and Ember to come back, they were starting to get sleepy. When Urchin nearly dozed off, her expression hardened and she got up. For the past few hours, a large house party had been blaring music a few streets down, and it was ticking her off. So while she walked over to the open window and swore the party hosts out, Glory and the rest of the girls worked on getting some sleep. They all laid sideways on the twin bed so each of them could fit, a little. Peril was the one who took up most of the room due to er large wings.

While the girls all kept their eyes open and stared up at the ceiling while Peril squirmed, urchin walked back over to the bed and shoved Peril to the side so she could get in with the rest of the girls. Glory had removed the pillow earlier, so no one had an unfair or uncomfortable sleep. When they all cuddled together and tried to sleep, the party lights and music wouldn't let them, and now it was starting to tick Glory off big time. The only thing keeping her from getting up and leaving was that her friends laid beside her, and Nightmare found the courage to lay down and sleep on her chest.

She didn't pet the dragon, she just kept her hands underneath her head for a pillow. If they fell asleep, then so be it. Urchin groaned and rolled over, burying her face in the bed sheets, hoping to drown out the music. Astro had her ears covered, since the noise caused a slim headache for her, which made Glory even more mad. Finally, when she couldn't take it anymore, she pushed Nightmare off of her chest and got up quickly. Fawn looked up at her quizzically, raising an eyebrow as Glory opened the door to their bedroom.

"Where are you going?" Fawn asked.

"I'm going to give our nice friends down the street a piece of my mind." Glory smiled. "Wanna come?"

Fawn was going to protest and tell her to stay, but then she closed her mouth, raised her eyebrows, and considered the thought. "Yeah, actually I will go with you."

"Awesome, come on." Glory waved her way out with a big grin and jogged downstairs with Fawn rubbing her eyes.

Glory waited until Fawn was done walking down to her and she threw open the door to outside, cold wind blowing in her face. She started to take off running down the street, and Fawn started calling after her while she took off at a sprint too. Glory bounded down to the end of the street, turned a hard right, passed two more streets, then turned right again down the street where the party was. She could see the multicolored lights from that far of a distance, which just made her run faster. She ran past at least ten houses on each side of the street before she skidded to a stop right in front of the party house. It looked like some kind of island house instead of a town house.

The doorway was very large and round, the whole structure made entirely out of cement and clay. There was even a pool and a few beach chairs at the sides. And dozens of teenagers were dancing around and horsing around like crazy. It started to make Glory rage up, slowly and awfully. Fawn finally caught up with her and she also couldn't believe for a second what she was seeing, and it too made her angry to no extent. Glory clenched her fists.

"Cover your ears, Fawnie." She said, and Fawn obeyed. When everyone kept crying joys of delight, Glory inhaled sharply. "SHUT THE DAMN MUSIC OFF!"

Suddenly, everyone in the party stopped screaming and looked her way, then they started screaming in cries of terror, which made Glory raise her eyebrows in confusion.

"Get away!" Some teens shouted.

"Don't kill us!" More screamed.

"Now that's hurtful." Glory looked slightly bored now, and Fawn uncovered her ears beside her. "Are any of you aware that people in Del Bar are trying to SLEEP?"
