Jasmin was shaken awake as two HiveWing guards rattled her chains. She blinked as they unlocked her wrists, though they immediately grabbed hold of them. The HiveWings led her out of the cage, where two more guards were waiting for them.


"Finally." Wasp hissed as Jasmin was dragged into a large, luxurious room. The four HiveWings let go of her, and surrounded her with a spear in their talons. 

"My favorite time of the day," The HiveWing queen grinned, showing sharp white teeth. "You're execution."

"Any final words?" She asked. This was it. Jasmin was free from the dark cage and restricted cages. Though her tail was still in its metal device. A chain hung around her neck, clasped onto a piece of metal in the ground. It was thick enough for most dragons that had been weakened with a broken arm and other severe injuries to never attempt escape, but Jasmin could see she was strong enough to break through. 

Though I did spend almost five days in torture, She thought grimly.

"I do, actually." Jasmin lifted her head high. Her muscles were clenched tight, ready to break out anytime. 

"Oh?" Wasp was right outside the circle of HiveWing guards. "Say it, then. Beg as much as you want, but it won't work."

"But I'm not begging for mercy." Jasmin grinned. She jerked her head, snapping the chain in half, and swept her tail in a low arc, unbalancing the dragons around her. Wasp shrieked disbelievingly as Jasmin opened her jaws, shooting deadly black venom everywhere. 

Jasmin grabbed the nearest HiveWing and broke his neck. Soon, everyone was on the ground except for her. She crouched down besides the HiveWing queen, who was slowly fading into unconscious.

"I'm here to say, I'm not dying that easily, Wasp. But you are."
