"Ummm yes I wou-" He froze, then crossed his arms and turned away. "I'm not talking to y- I mean I'm not talking to Astrana. Nope, la la la la la la la la..." he trailed off immaturely, pressing his hands over his ears.

they locked eyes, read each others looks, and hopped on.

She giggled uncontrollably. "Definitely not, you're talking to this wall and I;m talking to it's other half."

Grason leaned down and whispered for the pegusi to fly as fast as they could. He had a feeling that the empousai wouldn't be the last monsters they saw.

Cole looked around, and asked Sarah, *hey, pass me the bow, will you?*

Sarah nodded and passed him one, getting out another for herself. they both strung them expertly, and aimed, looking around.

Grason hissed. "Anemoi Thuellai, storm spirits, our enemies are in the air." he petted his pegasus's neck. "We just have to make it into the camp, just a quarter mile left."

The siblings aimed, and Cole asked, *what do we shoot?*

"Who? Astra? Nope, can't hear her." He said, his hands still covering his ears, though a hint of a smile twitched onto his face.

She rolled her eyes. "Yes, you can't hear her at all. Like who even is astra"

Grason pointed to the winds that seemed to become denser. "Those, I'll try to keep the pegasus in line."
