"That doesn't sound good." *I mutter to myself.* "Okay, well... it shouldn't be long until we get there, we can have a rest and I'll get us some food while we're there." *I say, flying a little faster so we get to the stream sooner.* Oh, but I'll probably have to hide him somewhere... I didn't think of that. No one's just going to pass by him. *I think to myself, taking a while to think of a solution.*

*seeing that everyone had left, I rushed for the hole in the wall. I spread my wings once we made it out, and jumped for the sky. Despite all the weight, I was able to carry the both of us into the sky. I try to fly lower than usual, making sure that the knight had enough oxygen to breathe. And once we reached the beginning of a vast forest, I finally knew where to go from here. I slowly turned to the right a little, heading for a mountain barely visible on the horizon.* "If you’re still there," *I begin to tell the knight,* "then tell me if you need something. But, of course, I'll stop by a stream on the way so you can drink some water."

*I ignore him, pulling out a sheet of cloth that I've found to wrap around his wounds, tightening them enough to put pressure to stop the bleeding, while not squeezing him too much.* "There, that should hold for at least a little while." *I mumble to myself, picking him up in my arms while I head back downstairs to check that everyone has left.*

*I hesitate for a moment, deciding whether I should help or not. I sigh, making the choice to try and help out.* It's the right thing to do anyway. *I tell myself, looking around the room to see if there was any cloth I could use to temporarily stop the bleeding.*

(Oh ok)

*I nod* "Okay, I'm going to check the fortress then, to make sure we don't leave anyone behind." *I use my wings to dash up the stairs*

(Ohh ok)

"Oh good," *I say with a sigh of relief.* "Well is there anything I can do to help? Or should I just leave with the others?" *I offer, wanting to help make sure everyone gets out safely.*

*I immediately run out once the bars break.* "Yes thank you! Do you know a way to lead all the others to safety?" *I ask the dragon.*

They can't keep us in here forever. *I think angrily, turning to punch the back wall in frustration. Then, I hear the roar and turn back, looking through the bars to see if I can spot the dragon from here.*

*I jump from the sudden and loud thud, staring at the ceiling again. I regain myself, and think of the idea of using my fire to try and melt the metal. I take a deep breath, and start to shoot fire onto the iron bars.*

*I stop pacing, the sound of fighting grabbing my attention. I stare at the ceiling as though I was trying to see what's going on. I start to get the urge to fight once again, even the sounds of fighting tempting me. I use the energy to try and break myself free, pulling the iron bars away to make a bigger gap. But, I'm still too weak, and I roar in frustration, kicking on the bars.*

*one of my ears flick in acknowledgement to the sound, but I continue pacing in my cell.*

(That's good)

*my eyes widen in shock of the huge hallway.* "no..." *my voice quivers in disbelief with a hint of grief. I stumble backwards, almost causing myself to fall back to the ground. I begin pacing in the cell, filled with a sense of anxiety and dread.* what's going to happen to us now? *The question hangs in my mind, fearful of the possibilities.* no, we have to get out! I need to help them. *I can partially see some of them, some are caught with sickness, and others are too tired to panic.* I'll find a way to get all of them out, even if I have to die. *I declare to myself.*

(Good, you? Also ye I just saw, very good.)

*my ears angle towards the sound, and I decide to try to get up again. I roll over onto my stomach, and push myself up. My body aches a little, but I manage to get up on my feet. I walk up to the front of the cell, peering through the cold iron bars to get a look of my surroundings.*

Noice

(Ye)

Did they really capture us? *I ask myself.* I hope they're okay. I wish this wouldn't have happened. If I didn't panic we would've been fine, I could've saved us all. *I think, frustrated at myself for letting myself be consumed with fear. I let out a frustrated growl, hitting the ground beside me with my fist.*

(Oh its Thanksgiving already? Well happy Thanksgiving to you too lol)

*I try to get up, but I could still feel pain in the back of my head. I groan, laying my head back down.* where am I? *I wonder, managing to turn my head for a better look.* looks like I'm in a cage. But, why would they fix my wounds? *The more questions I ask myself, the more I may fear the worst. I try to put it out of my mind, focusing on what I can hear and smell.*

(Oh ok lol)

*Slowly, I start to wake up. When I open my eyes, I quickly realize that I'm not at my home.*

(Not sure where to go with this lol)
(Also gonna go to sleep now, its getting late gn)

*Suddenly I feel a sharp pain in the back of my throat. I quickly realize that one of the knights managed to stab me. I shake my head around as an attempt to get the knight off. I can't even tell if they're still hanging onto their sword. Fear starts to consume my thoughts, and I begin to act out of panic. I back away from the oncoming mob of knights, the sword still in my neck. I start swatting at them, my ears folded back and my fur sticking up. I can hear some of them taunting me, but their words are drowned out by my fear. The winged lizard attempts to help defend me, but the mob is becoming overwhelming. I try to hiss, but I can only choke out blood.*

*One of my ears flick back towards the sound of his voice, my head snapping back around as if I couldn't believe what I was hearing.* is he finally realizing...? *I ask myself, the feeling of hope growing. I look around, cautious of any projectiles headed my way. I look back at the knight, thinking if I can say anything more. But the sound of battle roars in my ears, and I know someone will need my help. So, I fly back into the battlefield, spotting a big lizard with feathered wings desperately trying to hold off all the knights closing in on him. I dive down to help the lizard fight them off, spotting his brief expression of relief and gratitude on his face.*
