So you've figured it out, finally," Nogard said, keeping her sword on Larkin's neck. "Took you damn long enough."

"I actually don't know the exact details on how you and Dragon are sisters," Larkin said. "I just know it's more complicated than two diffrent eggs hatching at the same time."

"Oh jesus you are just as stupid as Dragon," Nogard said, rolling her eyes. "What is it you wish to speak of?"

"You know that Dragon is in trouble," Larkin said. "I want you to come with me to her realm and rescue her."

Regarding Larkin for a few moments, Nogard started laughing. "Me? Rescue that idiot sister of mine? I'd sooner kill her than save her!"

"If Dragon dies, you die."

"And what makes you so sure that will happen?"

"Your stomach pains? They were happening at the same time that Dragon was injured in The Other World."

Opening her mouth, Nogard started to say something. Closing it, she appeared to think about something. Opening her mouth, Nogard again started to say something but closed her mouth again as she continued to think. A long pause went by before Nogard said, "Fine, we'll go tomorrow night. For now, you will be my...guest."

Somehow, Larkin thought cynically, "guest" sounds more like prisiner.

For whatever reason I could not place my finger on, I had a bad bad feeling. Placing a hand on my extended belly, I murmured, "I'm not going to let him place a claw on you, j'nask."

Using the wall as support, I slowly rose to my feet. Waddling over to the door, I peered up and down the hall trying to see if the coast was clear. Verifying it was, I pulled the door open quietly. Earlier, when a bunch of gnomes were cleaning out the cell, I had slipped a piece of my dress in the lock. Stepping carefully so that I wouldn't trip, I made my way down the hall.

"Just a bit further j'nask," I murmured. "Just a few more steps then we will be free. Free to bring back the others and burn this place to the ground!"

"And where do you think you're going, tiznax?" someone asked from behind me.

Carefully as to not loose my balance, I growled, "Stay away or I will kill you, Orsnic!!"

Taking a step towards me, Orsnic calmly replied, "You'll do nothing of the sort because it may hurt the egg."

"Care to try me?" I snarled. "Or has your memory of what my mother did to you when you tried to attack me when I was still in the egg faded?"

Pausing as the memory came back, Orsnic said, "Touche. I really do not want to do this to you tiznax, but you leave me no choice."

I do not know what happened next because the world suddenly grayed out.
