She woke up with heavy eyes as she looked around, no sound of Morro... Odd...

"So he decides to leave me alone in this cramped cage? Well that's just great, what am I going to do now?!"

She sighed softly now pruning her feathers letting herself get comfortable again.

She wanted to cry out for help, she wanted her husband, her friends, family even.

She wanted the face feathers to die down knowing she'll eventually become a full bird.

"Listen well my daughter, you are the phoenix of restoration and eventually that one person will kill you for your power... I know you'll come back to us stronger..."

"M-Mama! What do you mean?! I'm so scared without you and Grandpa Wu's wisdom."

"Why did you have to leave me so soon...?"

"It is because I wanted to see you grow on your own..."

She jumped up looking around, "M-Ma? Is..."

"Of course it is my child, I'm so sorry I had to leave you so soon. I'm so sorry you're caught.."

"Please don't apologize, I'm glad I got to grow up on my own you by my side."

The ghostly woman chuckled softly, she was glad to see her own daughter grow up.

Once everything has died down the young woman had noticed a figure, a familiar figure.

"Cole? Kai? Is that you?"

"Arlette!" Kai cried out running towards the cage.

"What happened?" Cole followed after.

"Once I get out I'll tell everyone everything, but please tell me Lloyd and Jay are with you guys," She looked at them "Please..."

"Arlette?" A voice called out.

"LLOYD!" She quickly looked at him, "Please help me..."

"That's why we're here."

She smiled softly quickly waving over to Jay who returned the little wave as well.

"I have a lot to explain, I know that much." She was shaking.

"Hey first," Jay started speaking as he looked at her "You relax, once you're ready to speak come to us."

"Right, thank you all so much for this."
