Ember looked up, "Oh, Thanks Collyn, Hi Cleef! Don't worry, I studied moonblinking and passionflower when I was young, and it works better than anything!" Ember squeezed one part of the flower pulp onto a little fluffy grey owlet. It unmoonblinked instantly. She did that to the rest and then discarded the flowers. "See? No harm done." She smiled.

Collyn felt a little uneasy also, but they could trust her, he felt it in his gizzard.
When she unmoonblinked the owlets, he stared in awe at the barn owl. "I never would have thought it!" He churred then walked up to the owlets. "Cleef, lets take these owlets home. Ember, you can come to if you'd like." He asked her and waited for her answer while he inspected the owlets. All were in decent shape, but they looked a little hungry. "We can get our cook to bring up a few insects for them to eat. I'll go get a bowl for them now." Collyn flew off to get the worms and arrived back a moment later with a bowl in his talons. "Come here lads, got a nice bowl of fat bugs for you." Collyn set the bowl down and pushed it closer to the owlets. They started eating.

"Sure, Collyn, I would love to come and take the owlets back to their homes... I've never done it before, this will be my first asignment, right?!" Ember was fizzing with excitement. Yay, I can't wait to start! Ember thought. (occ: Am i still going to be queen of gahoole?)

Cleef looked at the owlets, smiled, then looked at Ember. "Ember that was well done, I should probably remember that for any future moonblink cases." Cleef then said to both owls "The owlets are now unmoonblinked, but have we forgotten that we don't know where the owlets live? Maybe we should start by asking them where they live, instead of flying them off right away." Cleef then looked directly at Collyn "Collyn well you still be able to carry four owlets?" Cleef then looked at Ember "And Ember, how many owlet's do you think you could carry?" Cleef then finally looked at the owlets. "Little ones, where are your nests and parents?"
Cleef waited for their answers.

Ember thought for a moment, and then said, "I could probably carry 2 or 3. I don't exactly know, but, I could try 2 at least." She smiled and looked at Collyn.

Collyn nodded at Cleef. "Yes, I can still take four." He looked at Ember. "How about you and Cleef each take 2...Are you both okay with that?" Smiled as he watched the owlets eat.
(sorry I wasn't on for a while guys...and yes, Ember is still going to be queen of Ga'Hoole...)

"Right" said Cleef "Now all we have to do is figure out where these owlets live." Cleef looked at the owlets and asked again "Where do you live young ones?"
"Ambala" Answered one of the owlets "Same as him" answered another "Forest of Tyto" answered two owlets in unison. " I live in Kuneer" Said yet another of the owlets. "My nest is in Silverveil." said the smallest "My parents are somewhere in the Shadow forest." relpied the largest. "And my nest is somewhere near Cape Glaux." Said the final owl.
"Ok" said Cleef "That's two in Ambala, two in Tyto, two somethwere in Silverveil, one in Kuneer, and one in Shadow forest." Cleef looked at Ember and Collyn "I'll take the two to Shadow forest and to Kuneer, who wants who?" Cleef watched the owlets finish their meal as he waited for a response.

Ember thought for a moment, and decided. "I'll take the ones to Ambala, and if I can when I come back, maybe the one who lives in Cape Glaux." She looked at Collyn, "Who are you going to take?"

"I can take 2 to Tyto forest and the two to Silverveil." He bent over to pick up the owlets softly in his talons. "Alright buckoes, this might be uncomfortable just a hair, but just rest in my talons until I get you home. I will wake you up when I reach Tyto so you may direct me to your hollows." Collyn herded them to the entrance then took off once they had been gathered into his talons. "Good luck with your travels!" Collyn yelled back at Cleef and Ember.
Collyn took the two to Tyto and Silverveil successfully. The King was on his way back when he felt a prickle of unease cloud his conscience. Someone's following me...I can feel it in my gizzard... The night sky held a deep glow as the stars sparkled and shined throughout the darkness. Then he heard a flap of a wing and whipped his head around just in time to see armored Pure Ones on his tail. He turned his head forward quickly. He hadn't worn his armor! His eyes narrowed as he grew deeper in thought. He would have to fight, there is no other way. He couldn't lead them to the tree. The King whipped around to face the other barn owls.
"Jared, looks like the King decided to take an evening stroll, with no armor! Aren't we in luck?" One owl churred evilly. The other owl just let out a hoarse laugh. The owl he now knew as Jared suddenly dove down towards Collyn, his metal mask glinting in the moonlight. The King moved aside, but Jared came down hard on his wing. The King grimaced and his wing burned each thrust. The owls battled on, leaving somewhat harsh injuries on Collyn as he was unarmored. Then with summoned energy, Collyn clawed out and raked Jared's partner across the chest. A headsmash was a stupid idea in his case as he had no helmet but the others did. But the blow from his talons wounded the other really well. Grew tired though, his injuries growing fiercer. Then Jared came down hard. The owl rammed Collyn hard in the head. The last thing he remembered was falling, seeing the faces of the two Pure Ones light up with joy as they reach down and haul the King off to the pure ones camp. Collyn lay knocked out cold in the evil owls' talons.

Ember took the two little owls in her talons, and flew off the island. She flew to Ambala, and the little owlets directed her to their nests. After that, she was soaring through the crisp, clear, night air. But it was all ruined when she heard a screech. Collyn! Oh no... She flew down towards the screech, and saw two owls heading for the pure ones camp, with Collyn laying unconscious in their talons. Ember started to panic, she flew back to the tree as fast as she could, and she landed. There was no sign of Cleef, so she would have to wait till he got back.

Cleef had just taken flight after returning the Desert of Kuneer owlet and was heading the direction of the Great tree. He had just gotten over the border of Ambala when he heard something, a rustling in the tree's above. Cleef stopped and hovered in flight as he looked up. All of sudden two white blurs shot out of the tree's canopy, grabbed Cleef by his wings, and slammed him into the nearest tree. Holding him there a third came out of the canopy and said "Hello Cleef." Cleef recognized the voice, it was a Pure One. "I just got word that some of our guys brought back a, rather beaten, King of Ga'hoole. You wouldn't mind coming to help us heal him would you?" "All you really had to do was ask." replied Cleef "Holding me to a tree really isn't necessary." "Cleef, I know you better than that. In a case like this you would get to our camp and, when we had our backs turned, free the King." shot back the Pure one "That won't be able to happen." the owl took off Cleef's mask. Right before things went black for Cleef, he was able to say "I stay with you for several days, treating you're terrible sickness and keeping you company, and you decide to turn me into a prisoner of aid?" after that Cleef heard a 'THUMP' and someone decided to turn out the world's lights for a little while.

Ember stared as she watched another Pure One took Cleef. Ember started to fly away from the tree, when she came face to face to another Pure one. She screeched and swiped him on the face. "You feather-brained idiot! How dare you take my friends!" She fought back as best as she could, but the owl was too strong for her. She had deep cuts, which were making her weaker. Finally, she let the owl knock her unconscious, and he picked her up roughly in his large talons, and started to fly towards the Pure One's camp.
