Our Planet has Crashed [COMPLETE]

thirty seven - Wings of Fire

Willow POV:

For the next two hours, Vespera, that ANNOYING LITTLE WORM made everyone follow her pitiful commands.

First: "Get me a thinking cap."

Next: "Set me down!"

Third: "Don't you DARE tie me up!"

After that: "If you must keep me bound, please nicely put me—not throw—into some sort of box."

And guess how picky she was with the box?

One: "Holes to breathe from. How else do you expect me to survive?"

Two: "A chair, if I may."

Three: "Absolutely NOTHING to bind me. I am Ancient, be respectful."

Finally, after two hours, they were finally able to get some information out of her.

And even so, she said it with a smirk on her ugly little face.

Now, the Enlightened language, as the elves called it, was impossible to understand, but from the elves' body language—and Vespera's smirk—Willow thought she could understand some of what they were talking about. 

Sometimes Sophie gave them a few translated updates. Apparently this Vespera lady was here becasue some person called Gazelle made her. Talk about blackmailing. Then they had paid a visit to Pyrrhia then went to Pantala and got the black or purple cloud that had been surrounding them, which was a word teh dragons couldn't translate properly. So they had no idea what the two evil elves had stolen.

The small band of scavengers seemed outraged and angry. No, wait. Outangry. They were evidently not happy about what Vespera had told them.

They had Sophie, Fitz, Marella, Maruca and Biana stay behind to explain to the dragons what had happened, to keep prodding around in Vespera's mind (secretly, of course) and see what they could find out about that "resource".

Tam, Linh and Wylie were going back to Earth thanks to something called a "pathfinder" Wylie had smartly brought along.

But, one dragon had decided to accompany them.

She wanted to make sure that everything was alright.

She could even be a guard!

She could convince other elves that this was the truth.

And, she could finally see the scavengers' world.

Earth, was it?

This dragon was Willow.
