Shumë called out, "Any pygmies?" He turned to his leader. "Pygmies are the fastest dragons, and a bunch of them could carry the vine."

Vyras nodded. "All pygmies come forward. You are to take the vine dragon back to base as quickly and safely as possible. Stick to the tunnels, don't let anyone see him. We can't risk loosing him," she ordered. A Sea Worm pygmy nodded, clearly taking the position as commander. With that they flew off carrying the injured dragon.

So the dragons slowly made their way back to camp. When they returned, Dase rushed to meet Vyras. "Vyras, thank goodness you're--I mean, thank goodness your group is safe." Dase turned to the vine dragon. "He's not in great condition. We might even... lose him."

Vyras ignored his slip of speech and instead growled, "We will not lose him. I refuse to let that happen. Let me talk to the healers, I'll do anything to help them." The Skywing pushed pass her friend and glided towards the injured vine dragon.

Dase grimaced and trotted after her. "He's burning up. I may not be a healer, but if I know reptiles and plants, extreme heat doesn't work." He sighed. "But if you think you can do something..." The vine tried to raise his head, but could not. It dropped back to the moss and leaves under his head and he collapsed into a violent fit of coughs.

Vyras gazed worriedly at the poor vine dragon. She turned her attention to the healer beside the sick creature and asked, "Is there anything I can do?" Her dazzling blue orbs pleaded with the old dragon.

He sniffed loudly and looked remorsefully at Vyras. "I've never dealt with vines before. They are rather solitary. Perhaps if you get him to speak, he could tell us some techniques. We've tried water, but today's not exactly a cool day." He motioned to the clear skies and bright sun. "What would happen if he didn't survive this?" he asked her with a lowerd voice. "Surely there are other vine tribes. Surely!"

Vyras replied, "There had been, but we lost them years ago. Some went into hiding and we haven't heard from them since, others were wiped out like this one's tribe."

"If he doesn't survive, this may mean the extinction of Vines. I would not have wished that, but there's nothing I can do." He tilted his head respectfully towards his leader. "I'm sorry."

Vyras's beak-like jaw dropped. "You're lying. I refuse to believe you. You're one of the best healers in the world, you must be able to do something! Don't lie to me!" she screeched, tears filling her eyes as the healer just gave her a solemn look. The Skywing whipped around, tears trailing from her eyes, and flew from the cave as quickly as possible. "He lies. The vine dragon will not die," she whispered as she bolted through the sky. In the east storm clouds could be seen gathering, but she payed them no heed, that is, until she found herself flying in the midst of pelting rain and striking lightning. A bolt struck down just in front of her and she stopped suddenly. All around her the storm seemed to be building. Vyras flew, trying to dodge the frenzy of strikes, but one hit her wing, sending her crashing down towards the ground.

Dase looked out of the mouth of the cave. "Didn't Vyras come back?" he called out. The dragons murmured that they hadn't seen her. "Maybe--give it some time," said the healer. "She'll come back."
((Hey--I'm not sure whether to make the healer a bad guy or just stupid. Also, should I kill the vine?))

((Make the healer a bad guy. Also kill the vine. } It makes it fun. Who should I rp now? Since Vyras is down for the count.))

The vine dragon coughed violently, a slick coat of blood pooling where his head was laying. "Where is the leader?" he gasped.

Dase rushed to the vine's side, the healer following behind. "What's the matter?" asked Dase, the same time the healer said, "Don't speak. Just breathe." Dase looked from the vine to the healer, but seeing the urgency in the green dragon's face, said, "No, no, go ahead."

The half-dead vine worked itself into an easier position. "Daughter... Revolt... Mies in the east... Take down while... Assault from family... Is over.. " the vine dragon gasped out. The creatures eyes shifted over to the healers, which had taken on a deadly hardness to them. The last vine dragon froma great clan knew it was time to join its kin. With a last spurt of strength he said, "Lead forth... Use the magik long forgotten... You must look beyond the sta-" the dragons voice was cut viciously off by a swift strike from the healer. "I think you've said enough, you foul creature," the "healer" hissed.
