-Turtle-

Turtle saw Qibli's body. The real Qibli's body. The one Darkstalker stole life form.

"Qibli?" he asked stepping towards his fallen friend's body in Moon's lap.

I enchant Qibli the sandwing to come back to life and trap Darkstalker into never coming back, Turtle thought holding his talon out to hover on top of Qibli's forehead.

Winter stood in his corner, shocked.

"You thought? No way, I am not that dumb, I've already put an enchantment to not let any other animus use their power except me, Darkstalker!" Darkstalker smiled, his voice seemed less cavernous, less scary.

His voice resembled a lot like Qibli's. Soft, kind with a slight tone of mocking and funny voice. 

He switched. He switched. They switched.

Turtle's icewing friend frowned and silently said something under his breath.

"Yes, indeed I have switched," Darkstalker answered smiling like a dragonet given a present.

"Bring him back, you...you MONSTER!!!" Moon cried angrily. Kinkajou walked towards her friend. The rainwing twitched her tail with Moon and lay her head on Moon's shoulder. 

Kinkajou whispered something into Moon's ear and the nightwing sobbed into her friend's shoulder, turning away from Darkstalker.

The giant dragon sighted and smirked.

"Incredible, little dragons, still trying to defeat me?"

Winter turned away as he saw Turtle stare at him.

Kinkajou turned and growled, her fangs out ready to spray Darkstalker with poison, her scales turned bright red with waves of orange.

Turtle had felt useless. He'd been the cause of so many deaths. This, now counted as a top 5 of Turtle's useless right now moments.

He couldn't help, even with his powers he was useless!

Darkstalker smiled watching the scene happily. Kinkajou's scales turned a darker shade of red and orange. Her eyes could kill someone.

Ever since the rainwing had been put to coma by Peril's dad, she's been willing to do anything to be by her friends' side, this often led to Kinkajou overdoing things of acting very violent.

Winter looked straight at Qibli's body. Turtle saw clouds of shame, despair, anger and sadness. His wings were falling and his tail was wrapped around his icy cold talons. His whole body was shaking as if he was freezing.

An awful silence filled the room, all he could hear was the muffled sobs of Moon and Darkstalker scratching his scales, probably thinking about how to rule the world or something.

"Darkstalker, son of Vigilance and Arctic, I shall end you today for any cost," a voice bellowed sharply from every corner of the walls.

Turtle almost jumped out of his scales. Another voice!

That's how all this room torture started! That's how Qibli turned out like this! 

Moon looked up to him and so did Kinkajou. It was as if he had a second head.

Their green eyes looked into his. He was scared. They were scared. Everyone was scared. Everyone except Darkstalker. Though he did seem anxious and a bit scared at the new voice.

"Impossible," Turtle heard the giant mutter.

"Scared," the voice continued. The walls on Turtle's right burst into shards. In the dust stood a fierce nightwing. 

Foeslayer. It was weird seeing her smile in times like this. She smiled so brightly.

"Let's defeat him and save the world, dragonets!" she cried out happily.

Behind her, a shadow cast itself on the opposite wall. The form solidified. Turtle saw curved horns, wings and a tail. A few seconds later, dark black eyes looked straight into his dark green ones. The dragon had a crooked smile.

The Darkstalker. The one and only. The son of Foeslayer and Arctic.
