Chapter 9

Ruby rose still had a hard time flying with Seahorse on her back. It made her slower and added more weight than usual. She finally made it and found the strange Sandwing. He seemed kind and very helpful. He led them to a small building that seemed half-built.

" I think... could it be? "

" I call it sanctuary... it's a little work in progress. "

" This can't be right. Sanctuary is between Skywing and Sandwing territory. "

" Well, it is a little work in progress. But I believe we'll have this place finished in about 10 years! "

Ruby Rose just kept looking around. She was standing in a piece of history... an unfinished part of history that would change the fate of Phyrriha and Pantala. And right now, they were helping a hybrid.

" A hybrid? I've never dealt with a Hybrid. Is she still safe? "

" I believe so... she's still breathing. We only spoke once. "

The Sandwing helped take Seahorse off, while they slid her onto a bed.

" There... why did you come all the way here? "

" Bum- Er... A friend told me you would keep her here until she got better. "

" Well... we'll do what we can. Are you staying as well? "

" Of course... I'm not leaving my cousin behind. "

" Alright, as you wish. "

The sand wing left, and Ruby rose sat in a bed, that was empty. Seahorse turned her head to see Rubyrose.

"You're so weird... " Seahorse began to speak, rather normal.

" Why do you think so? "

" You flew me all the way here when you could have dropped me by to the Rainforest. "

" Maybe... But I just hoped you would get better. I just had to trust Bumblebee. I don't know why, but I think there's something more to her. "

" Well, she has been acting strange. I think she can see the future... or she thinks she can. Once we get out of here, we are going right up to Bee and ask her if she can see the future. "

Ruby Rose made a confused face, then spoke again.

" Just get some rest... someday, we'll be going back home. "

Seahorse turned away and tried to get comfortable. As soon as she turned, there was a loud thud that came from the other side of the building.

" Well, that was quite loud... Hey, Ruby rose, go check it out! "

" Alright, but you better be asleep. "

" I'm already asleep! "

Seahorse closed her eyes and made a horrible attempt at making a fake snore. It was too obvious it was fake. Ruby rose kept off the bed and went to go investigate the sound. It took a while, but she eventually saw a bunch of Skywings carrying a downed Ruby, who was being put into a large rolling bed.

" What happened? " Ruby rose asked.

" None of your concerns, " One of the Skywings said.

" I shall speak for myself... " Ruby said.

Ruby straightened herself up and covered a claw mark on her stomach.

" I lost... I lost what was mine. Scarlet one, fairly. I should be dead, but she said it would be better if I were broken and could feel the same loss she had years ago in the Sandwing prisons. I would have rather died. "

Ruby lay back down, and they wheeled her out of Ruby rose's sight. Ruby rose walked off and looked at the open door. It was still raining... she should have won, now Scarlet was in charge. Who KNOWS what would happen to the Sanctuary. Just then Peril arrived. She was much larger than what she used to be. Peril looked right at Ruby rose, then began to step into Sanctuary. A piece of wood floor looked like it would begin to catch fire, and Peril stepped back. Peril ran off in the opposite direction, towards the storm. Ruby Rose had a face of confusion and big thinking. Ruby rose walked back to where Seahores was, and sat next to her, and started thinking.

" Are you fabricating again? " Seahorse said. Ruby Rose was always thinking, but she called these times when she's thinking of one thing specifically "Fabricating ". It was also fun for Seahorse to tease Ruby Rose by calling it out when she's doing it.

" Yes, I am... Now please be quiet. " Ruby Rose snapped... This was Ruby Rose's usual response to Sea horse. " I mean, I am, now.. um... "

" I get it! You need your alone time! Or should I say, your ' fabricating time' " Seahorse turned back around to face the wall.

' If Ruby was injured by Scarlet, that means... well that means Scarlet's in charge again... But why did Peril come over? She must have felt sorry for Ruby, which isn't too odd since she did feel sorry for Ruby in the original fight... If I'm correct. She must have flown back for Scarlet. WHERE THE LIGHT TRAVELLERS ARE HEADING!!! IT COULD BE A TRAP!!! Could it be? She had to make sure... it all seemed too easy to set up a trap with Peril as their captor. '
