Our Planet has Crashed [COMPLETE]

thirty three - Wings of Fire

Kinkajou POV:

". . . Please find him. And good luck, I guess . . ." Qibli told them, before letting out a hacking cough that made Kinkajou wince with pain, although it wasn't her who was hurt.

Yesterday, Qibli had gotten Kinkajou, Turtle, Anemone and surprisingly, Sundew and another LeafWing named Willow to go and try to find Winter.

He had also tried to get Moon to go, but she told him that someone had to take care of him, and that was her.

So today, the group of five were going to slip through the barrier in between the planets to try and find Winter.

"And I think that Turtle and Anemone should go first, since that can breathe underwater. If it's safe, the rest of you can go." Qibli added.

"Wow, thanks for risking our lives ." Anemone said sarcastically, rolling her eyes.

Turtle, on the other hand, looked scared out of his scales.

"G-go f-first into an-another p-p-planet?" he stuttered.

Qibli shrugged, then turned to the rest of them for instructions.

"Sundew and Willow, I get the impression from your tribe that you have . . . weapons for defense? And Sundew . . . your what was it? Speak leaf?" Qibli asked.

"Leafspeak," Willow corrected while Sundew scowled. "And the weapons thing is just her half of the tribe. We're not all like that."

"Long story." Sundew said, sighing.

"Okaaay," Qibli looked like he would ask fo rmore detalis if they weren't in a kind of hurry to get Winter back. "Then Turtle and Anemone are the scouts, Willow and Sundew are the warriors"—Sundew lessened her scowl at that—"and—"

Kinkajou flared her wings. "What about ME?" she sighed dramatically. "Everyone forgets about me, the o-great Kinkajou that fought the Darkstalker! MELTED HIS EYEBALL EVEN! And yet, here I am, still forever forgotten . . ."

"—and Kinkajou is the spy." Qibli finished with an amused smile.

The SPY! A SPY! SPY SPY SPY SPY SPYSPYSPYSPYSPYYYYY!

Wait. What's a spy?

"You have no idea what that is, do you?" Sundew asked, looking even more amused.

"No, but it sounds so cool! What do I do?" She asked Qibli.

"Well, I guess that depends on where Winter is and what you have to do to get him, but . . . you really just camouflage and run around unnoticed . . ." Qibli shrugged.

"And now you've overexerted yourself and need to rest." Moon said, pushing him gently back in his bed. "I'll send them off. Even lead them to the spot where Winter fell. I still remember . . ." she said quietly, dark eyes haunted.

Kinkajou bounded off after Moon, with Sundew right on her heels and the others following right behind. Turtle hesitantly followed them, but Qibli shooed him out of the hut, so he was obliged to come. 

A LeafWing named Hazel came and told Sundew some things about taking care of the LeafWings, and a HiveWing named Cricket came by with dragonet to say bye to Sundew.

Was she famous?

Then they had their supplies in leaf pouches made by the LeafWings and Moon was in the lead, leading them to some random island above the place where Winter had 'drowned'.

Then a thought occurred to her.

Winter would never had drowned if it hadn't been for the magic scavengers.

Where were they?
