I know letting Snapdragon leave was a bad idea, but she can be pretty stubborn. So we all just watch the distance as Snapdragon zooms away, to get those creatures. I know she's tough but there's a dragon. Dragons breathe fire. People die because of fire. Does she not understand simple logic!? Okay, I know her job is to go after mythical creatures, but I remember her parents getting into some pretty nasty situations, so I know she's not invincible.
Anyway, we continue watching Snapdragon until her silhouette merges with the dragons. I turn away and we continue down to the ground.
"Holly!" someone shrieks.
"Daisy?" Holly asks, confused.
"Yes! Help me!" Daisy (probably) yells.
Holly jumps off her little breeze and starts falling to the ground.
"Catch her!" I yell to Nari.
She nods and Holly's breeze shoots down, making it cold for a second. It misses Holly just barely and she hits the ground, luckily landing on her feet.
"Holly! Come back!" Lily yells, but Holly either can't hear her or doesn't care as she runs towards Daisy's (yeah I think it's Daisy) cries.
"We need to find her!" Lana exclaims.
"I have an idea. Nari, you stay up here. Everyone else will search from the ground," Jade says, being helpful and not fainting for once.
Everyone nods and everyone but Nari jumps off of their breeze, at this point being close enough to the ground it's safe.
"I'll check Holly's house," I say, running towards the center of the city where Holly and her family live. I watch all the houses zoom by as I run down the road and arrive there. I stand on the front steps and peek through the window. I see Daisy kicking at Cassandra who hits her hard on the back. Daisy cries as blood drips through her shirt and Kendall grabs her, fury in her brown eyes. She grabs Cassandra's neck but Cassandra kicks her off before grabbing Daisy's neck.
"One wrong move and I'll squeeze her neck. Until she dies," Daisy squeals and pulls on Cassandra's hands but they don't move.
Kendall doesn't move, scared of Cassandra's threat. I watch Holly go down the stairs silently and pounce on Cassandra. She wheezes and jumps up, blood dripping all over.
"You'll regret that," Emira says, grabbing Holly's neck and gesturing to Cassandra.
Cassandra squeezes Daisy's neck as Daisy kicks her in the chin. Startled, Cassandra lets go, and it's then that I realize I've been staring in the window like an idiot, doing nothing. I see Nari and Lily and usher them over to the window. Nari stays on her wind while Lily shares the steps with me.
"D-Daisy," Holly wheezes as she struggles in Emira's grasp.
"Holly!" Kendall yells from her spot on the ground as she stands up.
Daisy runs over to Kendall but Cassandra grabs Kendall's neck.
"I've had enough of you," Cassandra tells Kendall. Kendall wheezes, attempting to breathe unsuccessfully.
"Kendall! Holly!" Daisy squeals before running to our door and leaving.
We move out of sight from the window but not before Emira glances over.
"The other girls are out there!" she exclaims as she hands Holly over to Cassandra and bolts out the door.
I don't see what happens next as I'm running as fast as I can
"Why do I feel like the past few days have been nothing but running, and being tied up?" I ask Lily, who's beside me.
"Probably because that's what has been happening," she says, starting to sprint even faster.
