Cut rescue scene

Ooooh this one was fun!

---

Eurydice awoke to darkness, only for it to soon be disturbed by a bright light. She scrambled up and try to claw her way towards the back of the cage.

... Only for her to fall flat on her back in her panic. And not be able to get up. Her wings in dragon form made it near impossible to do so; despite her attempts she was stuck laying like a turtle on its back. Helpless. 

Two people, an avian and another dragon, stood before the cage. 

The dragon was clearly a follower of Ziatu, with the right side of his head white, and the left black. His eyes were a glowing indigo.  He wore a black coat over his shoulders, a white turtleneck, and dark pants. 

"Pffft-" The dragon covered his mouth in laughter at the sight of her. 

The avian was blonde with red eyes, wearing a dark turtle neck, light colored pants and a furred cape over his shoulders.

The avian smacked the other upside the head, "Stop that." 

This only further made his laughter increase, "Look at them! They're like a drake stuck on its back, oh my gods." 

The avian rolled his eyes, fiddling with the keys to the cage, "If you don't stop laughing, I'm telling Baira you laughed at them." 

The other man straightened up, coughing into his fist, "...You're no fun." 

The blonde tested each key on the lock, taking a few tries before getting the right one, "There, Rosom, open it." 

The dragon did so without question, entering the cage and stopping standing over Eurydice, "Hi there, we're here to kidnap you." 

This earned him another smack from the avian. 

"Hey! It's not a lie." 

"Just pick them up while I handle the chains." He didn't seem annoyed with his companion, just... anxious? He crouched down and tugged on the chain around her ankles, "We only have so long before your spell breaks. Chop chop!" 

"I'm chop chopping!" Came Rosoms sarcastic response. He was stronger than he looked, helping Eurydice up and onto her feet by the time the ankle chains were removed, "There we go. First? Second time transforming?" 

She huffed, nodding. Speaking seemed too difficult in this form. 

"Always the hardest, well get you back to normal soon, mkay?" He grinned when she nodded again. He turned his attention to her wings, carefully extending one, "Look at these bad boys, Ker, I think they may have you beat." 

The avian looked up from the chain he was unclasping, brow rose, disinterested, "Those are vulture wings, mine are hawk." 

The avian was swift at his work, removing the chain around her neck before she even realized it was there. 

"Alright, let's get off this ship before Bamyrth gets bored and sinks it." 

Eurydice all but pushed the two out of her way, finally out of the cramped cage, and made her way to the top deck. 

The crew of the ship were all tied to the... what's it called, mast? In the center of the deck. A dark haired man with a lilac blanket over his shoulders was playfully tormenting them by moving the shadows under the blanket with his magic. 

His head turned towards her when she clawed her way up the stairs, "Woah! Is that why there were so many guards?" 

Rosom walked beside her, carefully resting a hand on her shoulder to lead her, "Yeah, got stuck in first time transformation, got caught."
