~Part 8. I think.~

"So they were in on this? Is this some kind of PRANK!?" Gared yelled angrily, and then his eyes narrowed. "No. I don't trust you." He concluded. "If you really didn't kill them, then explain Esthelle! You could NEVER have caught her in time!" He said. "That harness was meant for ME!" She yelled, and on the last syllable her eyes flashed red, and then resumed the nutmeg, warm, kind shade.

"Those tunnels we went through? They were ENTIRELY out of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. I mean, ugh, where do I start. Gared, the Season Tale Writer is my mother." Gared's mouth dropped open. "He--she's a girl?!" He asked. "Yes. Gared, we're in the core of the mountain right now." Gared looked around. The walls, the floor, the entire room was made of shimmering, shining red crystal. "You could call it the heart." Kestrel added. "Anyways, this story started a long time ago."

"A long time ago, my mother, the Season Tale Writer, discovered this exquisite place with four exact seasons, seperated by mountains, all equally sized, and near eachother. She thought that it would be a PERFECT PLACE....to keep her pet Basilisk in the tunnels under it. You see, my mother has an uncanny ability of making movies, or books, come to life. And she can change into the form of those creatures in the books or movie--and currently she has the outside look of an elf from a Christmas tale, I don't know which one, and the inside attributes of Voldemort. Or at least she DID have the inside attributes of Voldemort. But let me continue my story....so, my Mother realised, after a while, that the Basilisk was hungry, after it tried eating her. So she tried feeding the Basilisk...she tried feeding ME to the Basilisk. I escaped--narrowly. After she decided that I wouldn't be enough, she used her powers...to invite many people here. After a lot of killings from her pet, the people realised about the Basilisk...and slayed it. And now, my mother wants NEW pets. She plans...to turn you into her pets. So I had to pretend that I wanted to murder them all. Only my mother knew, and she didn't say anything. So I brought the  'dead' CBers here, before my Mother could turn them into her pets."

Kestrel finished her story. Gared shook his head. "That's crazy, and I don't believe a word of what you're saying." He said, determinedly shaking his head. Suddenly, a light, high note, as if sung by a feminine voice, filled the crystal chamber, and the crystals near the entrance arch turned a light blue.

Icy strode into the room. "Kestrel, I'm starvi--" Her eyes widened when she saw Gared. "Gared--you're here?!" She asked excitedly. "Come ON Kestrel, let us save our Friends! Your mother HAS to know what you're up to if you got Gared!" She begged Kestrel. Gared's eyes were wide. "So this isn't a joke!?" He asked. An alto note filled the room, the entrance crystals turned peach, and CL strode in. "Nope. Behind the Crystal in the center of the room--Wordsy's been spying on you." A slightly higher alto note, and the entrance turned a darker blue. Cho strode in, and Gared's eyes grew even wider. The notes and colors repeated until all the 'dead' CBers, CAPTCHAs, and AEs were present. 

"KESTREL!" Daisy whined. "What?!" "Your mom found out!!!" "WHAT!?" "For sure--she's got Wonder Woman's golden lasso and is trying to rope the dragons!!" "WHAT?!" Kestrel looked like she was about to faint. "Okay, CBers, we need a plan!" Cho called above the ruckus. 

Woazas! Goodness this is getting good. I sure hope that Teller of Tales won't turn ME into a 'pet'. Though, come to think of it, it might be kinda coolio. Are you... Daisy?

Oh my this is good. I just had the best idea.....

What if she caught one of the dragons but everyone else escaped.....and then we could do a second one!!! Either destroying or saving the dragon. 

hnvo. Thats Noons way for saying it better not be her. (but I personally volunteer her) 

Whoa! This just escalated really quickly! I love it!

No, I'm not the Season Tale Writer! 

~Part 9~

"What about Broooke!" Icy sobbed. "We can't just NOT save them!" She protested loudly. "Please, calm down Icy." Kestrel said calmly. "My mother thinks that I killed all of who are here. So..." She turned to Icy. "You're an actress, right?"

~~~

The Season Tale Writer had summoned all Dragons to Fall, and said that she would call the rest once she got there. Little Reader wasn't so sure about this thing, but him/her and STRYTELL (my abreviation for UNSUSPECTINGSTORYTELLER. I don't really like typing the whole thing--but yes, I've known your real name this entire time. Haven't I, wiseowl? Okay, I mean, all your names. Celia and such. Wow, that was a megagiveaway of who I am.) had become good friends, and were writing a story together. Something to cheer Brooke up. And they had just finished it! They planned to go find Brooke in Icy's room.

Brookeira sniffled, putting some flowers by the picture of Icy, and then putting CL's Glaceon down in the room. They had set up a tribute to the murdered CBers, AEs, and CAPTCHAs in Icy's room. It made sense--she was the first one murdered. Booksy sat beside Brooke, holding Wordsy's favorite book, then placing it down near the pile of items.

And then, the wall of ice nearest to them shimmered and dissapeared. A white figure, clad all in white, quietly strode in. They were terrified, and then saw the ice-blue eyes. "iCY!" Brooke screamed, tears running down her face. "ICY!!!" Icy stared at Brooke. And then, Booksy sniffled. "She's a ghost." Booksy whispered, "She's a ghost." Brooke sobbed more. And then, Little Reader and STRYTELL ran in. 

The CBers sobbed and wept more. Icy opened her mouth, trying with a great struggle to speak. And then--"Get the Season Tale Writer" She said, coughing it out as if she choked on the words.

So, the CBers got the Season Tale Writer. And the Season Tale Writer's eyes went wide..and grew eyelashes for a second before changing back to normal. "G-g-gho--I thought she--killed you?!" STW exclaimed. "Nope. I made the wrong mistake from letting you escape from my mind to write a story." Icy said. "You're the real killer here. Not Kestrel, not the dead Basilisk. You." 

~Part 10~

Then Icy jumped from the window. Leaped. She freefell down, waiting for Kestrel to grab her. And Kestrel didn't grab her. It was Noon. 

She landed on a rough, scaly back. Kestrel was flying next to Noon proudly, and patted Noon's red and black scales. "Why is SHE here!?" Icy yelled. "They got Claaws!" Kestrel said in anguish. "They got Claaws!" 

~~~

Cho, CL, and 8-Piece started to climb the mountain, in order to find Claaws. Cho scrambled up frantically, CL was more cautious, and 8-Piece made few progress at all. "8, can ya gimme a boost?" CL asked at one point. "8-Piece?" She found 8-Piece attached to the rocks just beneath her, motionless. Her first thought was that he was thinking of Hemin again. .  "Oh my gosh, 8, wake up!" CL screamed. And then she saw the dagger.  

~Part 11?~

CL plucked the dagger from 8-Piece's arm. He gasped and his eyes flew open. "Kestrel...thought I was Season Writer...in the dark." He whispered, words tumbling out of his mouth like a waterfall. "Poison..Dagger..." "It's fine, 8-Piece. It just hit your arm." CL said stubbornly. "Nope. I don't have much time left." He said softly.

Cho edged over on a rock, and then, suprising words tumbled out of her mouth. "Would you live for Hemin?" Cho whispered. 8-Peice's eyes clouded over. "Hemin's dead." He said angrily. "No, she's not. She's alive here somewhere." Cho said calmly. "No, she's not." And then, breaking the dramatic moment, CL came in with--"DUUUUDE, YOU JUST GOTTA BELIEEEEEVEE!" She yelled. 

8-Peice shot her a look. "I won't be able to climb up like this." Was all he said. And then--clink!--His harness came off. He must've accidentally put on Kestrel's. CL and Cho grabbed his hands, but he shrugged them off and held on to the side of the mountain like a #savage.

"Seriously Piece!? You had to use THAT HASHTAG!? Bruh." CL said, as they went up the mountain...to free the chained dragon.

Meanwhile...

"AEYGBFEAYH BOLTON!!!!" Daisy screamed. "DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO FLY AN AIRPLANE!?"
