Looking back at the others, she saw that they were just as surprised as well. Eclipse looked like he was realizing what she was thinking, and Skua just looked disturbed at the sight in front of him. He thought it was pitiful. How like him. She glanced back at Handsome, whose eyes remained focused on the pool at his paws. [b][color=0020C2]"Depends what questions they need to ask,"[/color][/b] he growled. How could she even go about this? Next to Eclipse, she was the best speaker among their group. Aardwolf was just there, and Skua would rather bite and scratch and freeze things than be diplomatic. She drew in a quick breath, pulling her wings even closer to her in an attempt to look small. [color=614051][b]"We come from the SkyWing Kingdom. Queen Ember's been assassinated, and we found out that RainWing venom was used to kill her,"[/b][/color] she murmured. Handsome's eye widened in surprise, his wings fanning out slightly. Dreamseeker quickly continued in the hopes that he wouldn't fly away like Hummingbird and Lemur did. [color=614051][b]"We didn't come to blame anyone. Stars, we didn't even come to cause any trouble. We just want to understand what happened. We know it's not the RainWings' faults. It's obvious you were taken advantage of."[/b][/color] Another long silence passed between them. Handsome's eye stared back at her, his cloudy pupil contracting as if in fear. Dreamseeker caught his mind racing, panicking, but there wasn't an image of a guilty dragon that she could think of. It was as if his racing thoughts skipped over the specific instance, whether on purpose or without realizing, and continued onward like a rushing river. No words left his maw. [color=7FFFD4][b]"Forget it, Dreamy,"[/b][/color] came a familiar voice, [color=7FFFD4][b]"he's not going to tell you anything."[/b][/color] Dreamseeker's head snapped up to see the light green shape of Jaguar glide down from a branch. Her eyes glanced over Handsome and then Viper before she brought her gaze to their group. [color=7FFFD4][b]"I tell you to do [i]one[/i] thing, and you lot specifically go against what I warned you about."[/b][/color] Handsome stared at Jaguar, his scales suddenly changing color. Instead of gray, they started to become a vibrant red. [b][color=0020C2]"You..."[/color][/b] [/color]
