"This time, I'm quite convinced that maybe Pernicia makes this up only to scare us into doing foolish things. Then it helps the Outlaws," Cinder suggests.

There is a stricken silence as everyone tries to figure out the prophecy. Finally Adder whispers to Cinder.

"I can't take my life...It's nothing but an infinite loop of some revelation and the pain that results from it. I...I think I'm going to kill myself tonight."

"Don't, Adder. We couldn't possibly fight off the Outlaws without you. You kept us strong even though Lucious is missing."

"So...Apparently only the one someone loves or the one someone hates can pass...Everyone likes you, Cinder. And look at me! I'll bet you couldn't possibly count the times I tried to kill any of you on two hands!"

Adder walks off to a corner and screeches at the roof. Nobody was expecting it, to hear such a ghastly sound, to hear their friend go through such agony.

Adder was miserable. He's starving, he's become suicidal, he 'slost three friends in 24 hours, he's had a near-death experience, he's been assaulted by words that don't make sense, he'a had to kill people against his will, he's attacked his own friends...

The altar does not shine. It is still.

No meeting today.

A day wasted.

Everyone leaves the cave, with Adder and Cinder lagging behind.

"Why must everyone hate me and my species so much...I never did anything wrong...And everyone directs their vendettas to me..." Adder finds no meaning behind the racism and prejudice everyone harbors for him.

Cinder looks at him. "I don't know, Adder. I just don't know."

The sky goes black. Then it goes back to day once more.

But then it flickers to night.

Everyone doesn't get what's happening. Clearly it's day, there is no moon...

And then the look up and see...

Massive flocks of pterosaur Outlaws flying over them. They loon like ghosts, with chains and bracelets of crystal scattered among them. They seem to glow gray and silver, and they move erratically, seemingly breaking through the walls.

One such pterosaur, an Anhanguera(PLEASE DON'T KILL IT), and a massive one at that, abducts Cinder and slams her facefirst into a wall. While still holding onto her, the Anhanguera flies in random patterns, dragging her face in the stone.

Adder climbs a tree, picks up an electric crystal, and throws it as hard as he can.

The crystal picks up heat and slams into the Anhanguera, electrocuting it, forcing it to drop Cinder.

Adder catches Cinder and they return to the ground. As the others try fighting off the Outlaws, they bunch up close to the two. Wraak turns around and stands alongside Adder and Cinder. Adder looks strangely confident here; he stans straight for once and he doesn't pronate his hands. The Anhanguera emerges from the dust, shakes its head, and screams in fury at its visitors.
