Before you start squawking about how I shouldn't, let me explain. I did get caught, but the humans were about to kill me, so I decided to work for them. It's pretty interesting. And if I get caught escaping, they wouldn't trust me. So it's better this way." She explains quickly, looking worried but really just doesn't want to deal with her questioning "But, they let you out, so you could just run off and never worry about having to escape again- Oh well..." Albina said, shaking her head. "...Good for you, I guess?" She said nervously, clutching the eggs a little tighter. "They're hydra eggs, by the way." Albina muttered. "Not mine."

"I could escape, but I won't risk it. Not yet. Wait, hydra eggs? There's a hydra where the humans are. A grumpy one. Anyway, there's things for me to do. See you around? I wouldn't stay here, unless you want me to try and convince the humans to let you stay."

Albina said quietly, climbing up the tree and setting the eggs into a nest. "I'll go look for more survivors." She said, flying away. After she left, you noticed the eggs began to wiggle and crack a bit....

She sighed then climbed up to the tree, and screamed WHY WHY WHY I DON'T WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SOME LITTLE HYDRA HATCHLINGS internally.

One of the eggs cracked fully, and three tiny little heads popped out, cooing and chirping softly. The hatchling was a deep navy blue color with sky-blue underbelly scales, just like the hydra in the cage that was trying to escape.

She banged her head hard on the trunk then turned back to it and leaned close to it, sniffing curiously. She covers the eggs and hatchling with her wings in sort of a shield to try and camouflage them because of her colours.

"What happened? Did something attack?" Albina fretted once she noticed you shielding the eggs.

I have enough to worry about and I don't feel like abandoning children. I was already hiding a cockatrice egg-" ".." "... which I should get back to.."

Albina said, scooping up the other eggs, which were also getting close to hatching, and the hatchling, and flew off towards a taller tree with more leaves.

You flew to the abandoned nest in which you left it, but noticed a young phoenix with pale yellow feathers looking curiously at the egg. "Should I incubate it or just leave it alone? I mean, it's not my egg, but I can't just leave it to die..." They muttered as they poked it softly with their foot.

That'll just attract humans. Maybe we could set up bait for someone to come?" Emerald proposed. "Then once we get one or two more people, and heal up a little, we'll be ready to go!" Azure nodded. "That's better than just sitting around. Besides, they've definitely increased security since our little skirmish, so we'll need more creatures to help."

Emerald said as you climbed onto her back and flew off. As you soared over the forest, you noticed a faerie looking around worriedly in the sky. Emerald slowly approached them, trying to not be intimidated. The faerie noticed and quickly dashed over. "You...you might wanna be careful, I heard the humans are patrolling this place too..."

Well, I'm pretty sure it's a cockatrice." She says, scanning for anything else useful to the humans

As the three of you flew around, you saw a helicopter chasing after a terrified Fire Faerie. "Oh, goodness. He always gets himself into trouble." Thea muttered.
