(Should we leave her asleep? she can just get carried around for a little while)
I'm bored so...Character Chat!

(No, please wake her. I want to see what you try!)

Tessa calmed the beast beneath her skin and stood again, her pacing matching the hidden beast's stirring. "What are your ideas this time?" The words had a little bit more bite than she intended.
Anna took a deep breath and stood near Enderstorm's head. "I remember people doing this to me…" She inhaled again, beginning.
"ON TOP OF SPAGHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETIIIII ALLLL COVERED WIIIIIIIIIIITH CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE. I LOOOOST MY POOOR MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEATBALL WHEN SOMEBODY SNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZED." Her voice shifted up several octaves on meatball, and the whole song sounded terrible. She was off key and just overall had no singing voice to begin with.

Tessa cringed and covered her ears. "Bit of a warning to the ones with sensitive hearing."

Enderstorm bolted upright and lashed her wings and tail out, flames erupting from her throat in Tessa’s direction. She whacks Anna with a wing by accident. She collapses on the ground immediately after, panting but awake.
Anna fell back with a yelp. "It worked!" She grinned, ignoring her now bruised shoulder. "Are you two alright?"
group
Tessa blinked, unharmed but confused. "Yeah. I'm good. You?"
group
“Ugh. I haven’t slept so good in decades. Why did you have to wake me up?” Enderstorm groaned, stretching out her back.
group
"Because we need to get out of this dump?" Tessa offered.
group
Enderstorm sighed angrily, and curled back up, resting her snout in her tail.
“I need to rest anyway. It’s the only way I can recover from the blood loss.” She closed her eyes and began snoring again, already fast asleep.
group
This time, Tessa didn't bother with waking her. She knew what it was like to need rest.
She suddenly stood up and marched into the forest. Her limbs seemed to tremble before she was swallowed up by the trees.
Ronan watched with narrowed eyes.
Anna lay back on the warm soil, deciding sleep was the best option for now. At least Enderstorm wasn't asleep permanently… She watched Tess go, knowing Ronan was keeping an eye on her.
group
"I hope she isn't doing what I think she's doing," Ronan said, more to himself than anybody else.
Anna turned to look at him. "Is it dangerous or violent?"
group
"Depends on how you look at it," was his vague reply. That corranna better not pick right now to surface, or we're going to have our hands full.
She gave a hesitant nod. "So both. I'm going to pretend I understood what you said, and go to sleep." she rolled onto her back and folded her hands.
group
He gave a throaty rumble in response.

Enderstorm’s sleep this time was very nightmare filled. She saw a dragon screaming in agony and covered in blue blood, an old Enderman giving his last breath, and even a kiss that ended with a dagger at her throat. She relived her worst memories in her dreams, torturing her every time she closed her eyes. Regardless, she needed to sleep, as she did not want to die from blood loss. That had already almost happened before.
(I'm sorry I haven't been on, they blocked Notebook.ai on our school computers so I forgot all about it for a while)
group
(Oof that kinda sucks oh well you’re here now)
(yup)

(Wattpad is blocked on our computers, and my friend is more than peeved about it.)

(You have betrayed us, Pickles.)

(And I mean that with no bitter feelings)
(It's all good, the story's staying nice and slow.)
group
(Lol)

Ronan scented the air and happily came to the conclusion that Tessa had her beast under control, then shifted back into his human form, running a hand through his hair. We need to get out of here.
Anna opened one eye. "I agree. But how, and what's the point? All you non-humans have done your trials, now it's just me and Lacie. If we even have trials, it's not like there's anything we can do that the rest of you can't." She sighed, her optimism dwindling.
