"Then let's get out of here." Sybil urged, wanting to leave as soon as possible. It was them that she received Ami's unexpected visit.
"Oh miss, thank goodness." she said, shocking the civet.
"Ami!? What... oh never mind. We'll talk later." she said, still wanting to leave. She was aware that the orcas have put the marine birds to the task of returning and reporting to them, but she didn't expected one to return so soon.

"I came to report to the orcas how things in the Haven are going. They are desperate you know. They have adapted well in Antarctica, but they miss the Haven terribly." Ami explained, though in a calm voice.
"It's a good thing I caught you being successful in this mission. He warblers told me everything that happened today. I have to report to Cairo and I'm not sure I could lie to him. He is incredibly stubborn you see, and if he finds out Shadow was here, he could force himself and the others to return just to help you." Ami explained, knowing that them returning would do more harm than good, but of course, it was hard for someone like Cairo to see reason once his mind was made up.

Crocux smiled "yep that sound like him all right." Crocux swam along since Sozen was carrying Sybil and AJ.

"I will... but still..." Ami said with doubts, looking back at the gloomy island. She wanted to believe it was just her, but she had a very bad feeling that didn't seem to go away.
"Can I help?" she asked, wanting to shake off her worry, but at the same time delay her return since she didn't want to face Cairo.

"Ugh, that cockatoo..." Ami said, knowing how incredibly bitter and detestable he could be, but at least he wasn't worse than Yodel.
"Alright. I'll tell him." she said, preferring to deal with him than an humorously stubborn orca. It was going to take her several minutes to get there, perhaps even an hour, since they were still pretty far away, but she accelerated her pace.

Sybil was still in awe about the seagull's sudden appearance, but was glad she could lend help.
"Alright Sozen. Time to go." she said, now urging him to go. Unlike Ami, she just wanted to go home, and didn't stop to see if Shadow had finally given up on taking over the islands.

Crocux was fallowing them in the water.

ooc: TRIPLE POST!!!

OOC: Yes yes I know. This stupid Internet is giving me trouble again

Sybil layed down, exhausted with all that was happening, and while Ami headed to Hunted island, the civet was preparing to have the Haven under constant defense. Shadow escaped once more, and even though she obviously knew nothing about a secret weapon, she was convinced that Shadow wasn't going to stop at nothing to have what he wanted. She knew it wasn't wise to have her guard lowered as long as that reptile lived.

Crocux went to shore. Jack Saris and Sunflame were near by. Jack saw Sozen and went to help him with his wounds. Crocux went up to Saris and said "after we freed AJ a komodo showed up, Shadow's second in command, and apparently knew you. he wanted us to tell you something but he died before the could finish what he was saying. I found this on him." he gave Saris the bag that had the two name on it. Saris saw it and knew right away who it belonged to and he began to cry. Crocux was confused "Saris what's wrong? who was he?" tears were streaming from his face when Saris looked at Crocux and said "his name was Syris, he's my little brother." it was loud enough for everyone to hear and Jack and Crocux gave him a look of surprise.

"Man, your little family just keeps growing..." Sybil said rather insensibly, furious that Shadow managed to escape yet again.
"Where is Whirlpool? We could really use his help here!" Sybil asked in a stern voice, evidently too angry and not getting any better.
"He returned to Hunted island miss. He seemed very gloomy." one of the warblers answered, that being sensed by all of them.
"I'll go find him." Peepers offered himself, flying towards the island. Sybil in the meantime, headed to her tree to collect some of the medicine she had buried, knowing that many warblers needed it, and as soon as they recovered, she was going to make sure they were better prepared for Shadow's next arrival, not to mention that she wanted to find if there was a spy or a traitor there, since there was no other way Shadow could have known about the armors.

Shi looked "rose is right. I think I can see Sozen from up here." Jack reprimanded Sozen "oh no you don't. You're too weak to go off on your own right now. I'll help you to you're cave. I'm sure Shi's worried sick about you." Crocux gave an angry look at Sybil for being so insensitive. he looked at Saris and said "I'm so sorry little bro. if it makes you feel any better he helped us out by sabotaging Shadow's new weapon so now he has no choice but to fight us on equal ground. If you want I'll let you have the honors of finishing him off once we win." Saris was weeping but he heard everything Crocux said.

Jack smiled "yes I can I'm a chimp after all so I'm good at climbing and in case you've forgotten when Crocux got angry with Sybil and you took him to your cave Dad got up ther to repremand him. now do you honestly think that an old cold blooded cobra could actually make it up that mountin by himself? no no no and no. I carried him up their my self so yes I can make it up their. so I wasn't asking you I was telling you. now you want to go home or not?"

Jack nodded "don't worry I will" and started helping Sozen home.

Sybil dug under her tree and was very grateful that the medicine there was still intact. It was going to be enough for the warblers present, but there was no way it could last for Sozen given how big he was. She trusted though that Peepers was going to bring in Whirlpool with more, so using a large leaf, she dragged the improvised bottles to the beach. It took her about fifteen minutes, but given how angry she was, it looked like less.

"Alright now. Lumos, come help me out here." she said, preparing to rub the antibiotics to the injured warblers. The young female that was the first to join Shadow looked away, ashamed, and Sybil, although she didn't demonstrate it, was very angry at her. The other warblers noticed, but they continued to help their injured mates as if nothing was happening. The only warbler not helping was Yodel, who was beneath a palm tree, simply watching. None of his comrades was ever kind to him, so he didn't think they deserved his help.

At Hunted island, things were getting tense. Peepers reached Whirlpool's den, but it was surrounded by Barloc and a few other cockatoos, including the seagull Ami.
"He won't come out. He's too depressed." the cockatoo leader said, knowing that if the usually reliable wombat didn't answer your call, something was very wrong.
"We can't go in there. We'll be lost." he said to a peepers after he tried to enter.
"But we need him. We have many injured, Mr. Sozen included." he said, trying to voice his echo through the tunnel... but there was still no answer. Whirlpool didn't want to come out. Peepers was at a loss on what to do, and it wouldn't do him good getting lost in that maze.

There was still no answer. Barloc was losing his patience.
"Come on now wombat! You can't stay there forever! They need you back at the Haven! Don't you understand?" he yelled, his years of friendship meaning nothing to him if it meant Whirlpool was going to behave like a grounded child.

After about ten minutes, Barloc had enough. He was about to enter the burrow when Whirlpool appeared with a large box of medicine. He left them at the entrance, and then left as soon as he had appear. He imagined that it was the medicine they needed, not him. Plus, he taught Sybil many things, so he believed she could do well without him.
"Well, that's an advance." Barloc said, still annoyed at the wombat's behavior.

"Sayan I think we defeated a Shadow again. Look the beach is clear." Rose said.

"That's a good sign.," Sayan said agreeing with his mate. He smiled, glad that they were possibly out of danger.

"Whirlpool wait!" Nero then looked to the others. "You guys call Jet to help carry the supply's I'll stay here to convince Whirlpool to come out." Nero said.

Barloc, Ami and the rest of the cockatoos present carried the supply to the beach. When they reached the beach, Barloc let Ami call Jet, since as usual, he wanted nothing to do with predators.
"Mr. Jet! We are in need of your assistance!" the seagull yelled, knowing that he in particular was usually nearby to help.

"Hey Mr. Jet. Nice seeing you again..." Ami said, indeed happy to see a familiar orca face again but trying to hide how extremely sorry she was for seeing him in such a skinny, depressing state. It was quite a miracle that he was still acting polite and helpful in his predicament.
"Hey Mr. Jet, if you can, we need you to carry these bottles of medicine to the Haven. We don't want to risk flying high and dropping them." she said, trying to sound her normal tone of voice to hide her concern.

At Whirlpools burrow, Kali was arriving to see if her husband had any luck with the wombat.
"Oh, good afternoon there... have we met? Are you a new resident?" Kali asked, not knowing Nero in person, so she assumed he was another resident from the Haven, which she rarely visited.

Shi shook her head "if this Shadow character is as dangerous as you guys say then we shouldn't take any chances."

Ami, Barloc and the rest of his troop put the bottles on Jet's back, but it was only Ami and a volunteer cockatoo that stood on his back as well in order to hold the bottles and prevented them from falling to the sides while Jet swam.

"I am Nero, Zera the Komodo dragon friend who came to help. I'm trying to get Whirlpool to come out. Can you help me?" He said.

"Still inserted into his little burrow, isn't he?" Kali commented, really worried about the wombat.
"He has never been this depressed before. If Barloc didn't succeeded in getting him out, I doubt anyone else can. I think it's best to leave him be for a while." Kali suggested, knowing that the best thing for anyone in that state was to be alone for a while before the actual consolation.

The echo in the burrow made Whirlpool listen to everything on the outside, but he still didn't came out. Kali wanted to stay, but decided to go with Nero to help Het and her husband. Whirlpool still wanted to be left alone and drown in his own misery, but then decided that he wanted to be useful and compensate his mistake. He took a look at the shelves of his medical room, and noticed that it was almost empty. Evidently with everything that was going on, the supplies were getting depleted sooner than expected, so making sure nobody was outside, he came out to collect all the herbs, grass, fruits and other ingredients he used for his medicines. It was going to be quite hard considering the drought there was far worse than the Haven itself.

"Good. Thank you so much Mr. Jet." Ami said, then addressing to the cockatoo accompanying her.
"Come on ma'am. Let's take these to the warblers." she then said, luckily not needing to to very far since they were all already at the beach, but when they saw that the warblers were already having all the treatment they needed, the two white birds headed to Sozen instead, who now needed it.
"Ease up Mr. Sozen. Look look. We have the medicine you need." Ami said kindly, knowing that she and her cockatoo company had a lot of work ahead of if they wanted to treat all that body.

After being done with Sozen, Ami was preparing to leave. Since Sybil had a few other warblers to treat, she decided to talk to Jet instead. There was something she needed to get off her mind.
"Mr. Jet? Can we talk... in private?" she whispered, though she didn't need to worry about anyone hearing her since they were all very distracted.

Jack nodded they were half way to Sozen's home. "come on now. Shi will kill you if you take to long to get back."

Jack nodded "of corse" and leaves Sozen be to talk. (are they at the cave now? just cheaking)

(okay)

As Ami waited for Jet to reply, Barloc back at Hunted island was checking on his family. Whirlpool wanted toget supplies, but as long as Kali was there, he wasn't going to come out.
"Still nothing..." he said to his wife, now also starting to worry. Although Kali knew Whirlpool needed some time alone, she wanted to remain nearby in case he needed the consolation.

Ami landed on his head and waited for him to swim to a private place, and then voiced her concern.
"Well... I just wanted to know how you are doing? You and the two misters, Jhen and Heede? We are... all worried about you... and the other Haven residents..." Ami confessed, knowing it was cruel to think that the orcas, who couldn't be more loyal to the residents, would actually attack them eventually.

Ami estimated that was what he was going to say, but that wasn't even half of her concern.
"That's not all... I will have to report to Mr. Cairo. And he chose me because he knows I couldn't lie to him. If I tell him at Shadow was here... he might make the entire pod come back to protect the waters." Ami explained, knowing that orca almost as long as Sybil herself. But of course, if they returned, there would be terrible consequences.
