Durza continued to do what he was doing seeing that it was working and increased the heat.

"are you alright,Icestorms?"MoonLight said."you need rest now"

Vascou made it to their destination and landed, helping the frustrated griffin stand before moving to see Icestorm on the ground.
"Is he OK?!" he fretted. He didn't know why he was worried, heck he didn't even know anybody here except for the griffin and blue dragon. But Vascou was always worried so it shouldn't have surprised him as much as it did. The dog/bat hybrid quickly glanced around at the others. He had seen similar creatures before, inside the lab, but was always told that they were dangerous creatures that should be put away. Of course, he naturally believed them since they were his masters, but the whole ordeal left him wondering about the subject. The hybrid was admittedly smart, but his child like attitude and willingness to obey always gave off a 'stupid' vibe to others. The scientists knew that from how he had escaped the lab by picking his lock and waiting for guard shifts to end.
Back on subject, he was beginning to realise just how much of a lie his life really was. His so called 'masters' always told him about the creatures that terrorized civilizations, and how it was too dangerous to leave the safety of his cage... But here he was, surrounded by them, being helped by them and even watching them help each other.
They use others to get what they want. A voice told him. It was one of his old masters that would pet his head and say 'good job' a the end of an experiment... But, it was the same voice that nearly ended his life before...
But they must have killed him... Vascou's mind was conflicted. He was so caught up in his own debate that he zoned out, just staring at Icestorm for a few minutes.

(Sorry for the length! I got a little carried away...)

"Urr... Gosh..." Midnight worriedly stared down at Icestorm. She longingly turned her head back to the mountain. It loomed over the forest, casting a great shadow in the moonlight. It was so close, but at the same time, it felt so far away... She wanted to rest, wanted to leave this situation behind... Midnight was tired and just wanted to forget all the dangers of the world and just go to sleep. She looked back to Icestorm and sighed. She closed her eyes for a moment and her head drooped near the dirt. She could have left them, could have just gone to the mountain without them, could have just not cared about these strangers she'd only known for a few hours... But something didn't want to leave. She opened her eyes again and looked at Icestorm. That's when an idea struck. Midnight raised her head back up and spoke up a little, "Guys, I think I know what we can do..." She walked around Icestorm and climbed up on a rock spire to get their attention more. Her starry wing membranes almost looked like they had been ripped from the night sky itself... "We need to form together, keep eachother close, and carry Icestorm. Not only will we be able to keep him safe, but I think it could aide us as well. We'll be all in this together ((OOC: I swear I didn't try and refrence High School Musical there! )) and we won't be in the risk of separating from eachother. We're going to be safe once we get there, so I suggest we learn how to work with eachother in the meantime, because in the morning we're going to need that." She jumped down from the spire in a waterfall-like way and walked to the middle of the group. "So let's make it there and we can all finally get some rest!" Midnight smiled brightly, despite her tiredness and their predicament. She then realized why she was doing this, because she knew that she had allies. It would be futile to just leave them anyway. Besides... Who would want to separate from their friends?

"Sounds like a plan." Maria said, listening to Midnight's words.

Aria stayed silent.

MoonLight almost turn grey wolf."What happen to my legs?!?"She shocked."AAH"

Durza stopped for a minute to catch his breath. he picked up Aria from his back and set her down. he then resumed his work. a voice radiated in all of their minds I couldn't agree more replied Durza

Kumara was reluctant, but knew it was the best option.

Vascou looked over at Midnight and decided he would trust them, but if something were to happen that violated the trust, he would leave.

"what are you?"MoonLight asked bat Mutation.

Vascou tilted his head in thought, "I'm not entirely sure. I was called K9 a couple of times... and there was that one guy who called me a bat-thing... But i was never really told. The question was always avoided."

"K9?"MoonLight said.

Durza stopps for a minute and says "it's a term used by humans. it's a genaric term for dog basically." he then resumed his work.

"Well,you see my legs also use to be grey wolf's legs"MoonLight.she almost fall."whoa,I am falling and I wouldn't stand strange"

Durza stopped and said jokingly "that's a you problem." and resumed breathing fire on Icestorm.

I stop "I know this already Icestorm. you forget I've met you before in a different demension."

"So... where do we go from here?" Kumara said, "We are too close to human civilizations and they would surely find us eventually."

Midnight looked up to the mountain they had now approached. Their pawsteps were the only things heard after Kumara stoped talking and quiet cricket chirps were heard, too. She put her head down and sighed in relief and looked up again. "Alright let's get up there... DURZA! Carry Icestorm, he may be awake, but we can't risk anything." Midnight then flew up with a quick beat of her starry wings. After a few minutes of flying upward, she approached a cave on the side of a mountain. The inside was much, much bigger than the outside. Midnight nodded to herself in approval of the large cave. She stuck her head out and called from the cave to her friends, she spoke up a little as the wind started to pick up a bit, "The coast is clear guys! Come on up, there's room for everybody!" She chimed and smiled, her eyes turned up to admire the night sky, now half open. Finally... Some peace...

"You found someplace to rest?"Maria asked

"Yep! Come on up!" Midnight instantly called out of her trance. She gestured them up with her tail and a smile.

Midnight still had a friendly smile on her face as she waited for her friends to arrive. She looked down a bit to see Icestorm had said something, but of course she couldn't hear it and she most definitely couldn't reach his brainwaves from here either. She had grown used to her friends and decided not to read their thoughts anymore, as she trusted them now. She eyed Icestorm, the stars glimmered off her eyes like lots of mini diamonds, "Did you say something, Icestorm?" Midnight's voice echoed from the mountain top.

Maria followed Midnight. "Come human!" she barked.

Aria followed silently.

Vascou looked between Icestorm and Midnight, amused by the exchange. Of course he had heard Icestorm, since he has superb hearing senses, but didn't say anything due to the Dragon's awkward behavior. Instead he bounded forward and intercepted their chat, giving Icestorm enough time to regain his composure.
"It looks pretty high..." he said to Midnight before glancing back at the male dragon with a grin.

"ok no need to yell kid." i pick up Icestorm and reach the cave I set him down inside and revert to human form "ok so now we rest. and by we i mean you guys for me I'm naturally nocternal so if i'm asleep in the morning it's because you'd be lucky to see me awake during the day. go get some rest I'll stand guard."

"guys,wait up"MoonLight said.she follows Durza."I need rest for while"

"I can stay awake, I know how to be up for 72 hours at a time." Maria said.

Aria stayed silent

Midnight watched her friends on the faint moonlight shining in the cave as she brought them inside. She stared back out and got next to Durza at the foot of the cave. She stared down at the girl with the wolf legs known as Moonlight. Midnight sighed in slight guilt of ignoring the creature. She was trying to help... and she needs rest... Midnight slowly turned her head to Durza again and slowly edged her eyes up to him, in a shy-ish manner. "Durza..." Her voice was like a small breeze in a hurricane, "Do you think you could help... Her?" Midnight looked down and pointed at the wolf humanoid. "I... I neglected her and... She needs some shelter..." Midnight looked at her paws in shame, "So... Can you please help her?" Midnight turned back to Durza with hopeful eyes.

"I can try to help too." Maria said helpfully.

"Help me?"MoonLight said when she turn her face around and blush."omg,my face already blush"MoonLight cover her face.

Durza smiled and said "not a problem." I hop down and land gently. I grab hold of Moonlight and jumped back up with her. "their yea go." he then walked over to Icestorm and said quietly so the others wouldn't hear "dud, I can tell you like her. so why don't yea go talk to her?"

Maria laughs slightly. "First love, eh?" She whispers into Icestorm's ear.

"I know love when I see it!" Maria barked, furiously but silently.

Durza smiles "come on dud. i don't need to hear nothin. it's written all over your face. out of all the demensions I've known you out of all the year that went with it one thing i know for sure is that the only way you and descreat can be said in the same sentence is if not is in between them."

"Got it." Maria replied and went outside of the cave to stand guard. Aria on her tail.

Durza smiled "my lips may be seald but you should talk to her. at least to try to get to know her better."

Vascou found himself exploring the cave, trying to find any hidden crevices or other tunnels. Unfortunately, their resting place wasn't very interesting, so he headed back towards the others and sat down to observe. He scratched behind his ear with his back leg and decided to try and get to know some of the others.
"so... I would like to know all of your names, since I think I will be staying with you for a while. Unless of course you don't want me too. I understand if you don't want me around..." he said, his voice speeding up in nervousness.

Meanwhile Kumara had wandered off into the cave in search for a crystal of some sort. She could feel the energy of one close by, and was determined to fix her wings and gain her elemental energy back.

Durza smiled at his handy work and went over to Vascou and said "no need to leave. Your always welcome. I'm Durza, I saw what was going on and saved your life. nothing much in a days work. you were lucky i noticed you in danger like that when i did, a second later and I might have been to late."

"I'm Maria!" I whisper-shouted into the cave.

MoonLight walking backward."I I ..."She very nervous shy.suddenly,MoonLight went blush again.
