"What's his deal, Ruby?"
"He finally found a family and he doesn't want to lose it."
"I've heard about you, and I understand family. Seems we all have had to grow on our own, one way or another."
"Just how much has Jacklyn told you about me?"
"Only the good parts, promise on my fathers grave......…I.....know that doesn't mean much but...…"
"It's ok."
"So, uh…..how's your sister?"
"See for yourself."
*Wooooosh*
"DUCK!!!!!"
"Why....why aren't they attacking? We are right out in…..
*Squsih…..
…What did I just step in?"
"Whatever you do, don't move, and don't look down. You're in a safe zone."
"Did you just pour a chocolate milkshake on the floor and call it a safe zone?"
"I just told you not to.....ugggh; Jacklyn was right, you don't listen to anyone."
"Hey, where are you going?"
"Roll around in the milkshake or don't; it's up to you; but without its protection you are toast."
"Why do you all hate me?"
"...........Did you just...….did you just ask me that?"
"I, uhhh...."
"I said, don't move.
If it weren't for you wanting to show off to your dad I wouldn't have had to go to Nowhere, meet the Dragons for negotiations; lose all my friends; come back..lose my Dad; then my best friends; and now...….now Evelyn; so no...no I am not ok; and rn Dragonfrog just took the only nicest person in the world who has never done any wrong and would never even hurt a fly; so no I am not ok. Furthermore, she had to give up her family; give up ever trying to find them again; just to clean up your mess. Yea...you started it, we're ending it."
"I see you're upset; can we just…"
"I said, don't move."
"Ok, sorry. Sorry."
"I have half a motion to just let you move and Dragonfrog will see you; but right now out of the kindness of my roots I am giving you your safe space. Your second chance. Without it, you wouldn't be. Why did you even come here in the first place?"
*Looks at Evelyn*
"......I'm starting to ask myself that same question."
"Well, until you figure it out; you are free to leave."
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"Trying to get this door back online. I need Jacklyn. That Chocolate milk won't last long and once it melts, Frogs Dragons will be coming back for more."
"Can't you just...…you know…extend your roots deep into the Earth and grab out the milk to make more?"
"I'm gonna act like I didn't just hear that."
"Need any help?"
"No, Ben…i don't need any…
*Striiiaaaaapp*
...…Oops."
"About that help?"
"Uhhh…got any glue?"
"Dragonblood is our glue…"
"No, wait…i said; don't move."
"Look girl, I am the only one who has ever captured a Dragon...
Frost is no Dragon..you raised him so of course he was loyal to all of you. Meet one in the wild and raise your hand.....I'll wait.
...….alone.
...That's what I thought."
"...................Fine.....but this time when you catch a Frog...….please bring it right back here so we can power this thing and bring Jacklyn home. I trust you."
"Say that again?"
"I am not saying it again, now go before I change my mind."
"......As you wish...…..Ru...…by."
"I HEARD THAT!!!!!!!!!!"
