Jason opened the latch, stepped out of the window and into the cold air as we followed him.

"Are we free now?" Luna asked.

"We sure are!" Jason laughed.

"fin-a-lly!"

"Free. All right!" Theo shouted happily and shooted a hand in the air.

"Yes!" Lucas shouted and fist bumped Theo.

  "Shh. There are guards around here." Jason told the two of them. 

We ran into the tall trees and found a spot to hide until the coast was clear. Guards were guarding everywhere and there was no way of getting out of there.

"How are we going to get back to the village now?" I asked. "There are too many guards guarding every corner."

"We will hide in the trees and make our way out of here, children." Twilight said.

"Ok let's give it a try." Jason said.

We followed Twilight and found Drago captured in a net.

"DRAGO!" I cried.

"That's Drago?" Theo, Luna and Lucas asked.

"Yes. I gave him a growth powder and he grew." Twilight told them.

"Drago, what did they do to you? Are you ok, boy?" I said rushing towards Drago and petting this snout.

The rest were behind me, while I tried to lose the net with my strength but couldn't.

"Twilight, look what they have done to Drago."

"We will get him lose, dear." Twilight said trying to calm me down.

I fell to my knees and cried in my arms.

"I will end Alex forever. Not matter how painful or challenging it could be. Alex hurt everything of mine and now I am going to hurt everything he has." I said.

Theo gave a shoulder around me and said,

"Look at me, Gabriela" he said lifting my head up,and wiping the tears out of my eyes. "This will be a dangerous challenge for you. Also you will need help. Alex is dangerous and wise, he can hurt you easily."

"Yeah, Gab, Theo's right. You can't do this alone." Luna said.

"Maybe we can help?" Lucas suggested.

"What? No! I don't want you guys to get hurt. I promised your parents that you would come home safe to them."

"We don't care if we get hurt. We want to help you, Gab." Theo said.

"Ok but we have to get back to the village and get more guardians to help us." I said, giving in.

"I could be one of them, if you want." Jason said, raising a hand.

Twilight spotted a dagger that was hidden in the grass from one of Alex's guards and cut the net to let Drago free.

"Are you ok to take us back to the village, Drago?" I asked.

Drago nodded and smiled.

"That's my boy."

Theo, Luna and Lucas rode on Drago while Twilight, Jason and I flew beside them.

"So you told our parents that we were captured and you are a fire fairy?" Lucas asked.

"Yes, well I told Theo's mom and hopefully she told yours and Luna's parents as well." I said.

"Did my mother believe you?" Theo asked.

"Yes she did believe me."

"Wow she really believed you. If I had to explain this, she would never had believed me."

"So did I win her heart?" I teased.

"You sure did! I bet she likes you better then she likes me."

We both laughed until I was about to lose my balance.
