(C ya!)

Strike roared, *NO!* as Thunder body, which was still alive and not getting resistance from his soul, roared and jumped at Pyro, who rolled out of the way, and flew off. Thunder followed.

Bolt smirked. *and thats why you kill the dragon first. The body will go crazy without the soul, or sanity.*

Strike flew after Thunder, trying to stop him. However, he wasnt flying as fast as he normally did, or with the energy. His heart just wasnt in it.

Taika narrowed her eyes, she closed her eyes, when she opened them they were pure black, "No soul dragons turn to ash." she said in her creepy voice, and Thunder's body turned into ash instantly.

Strike froze, and went into shock, still beating his wings. Pyro flew over to Taika, partly fuming, and partly thankful. he took a deep breath to calm down, then said, *give Thunder his body back. NOW.*

Taika took a deep breath she pointed at the ash and waved her finger up, the ash changed back into Thunder's body, Taika put the scale holding Thunder's soul onto the body, "The scale will help keep his soul safe, but it will also prevent him from using his animus too much." she explained.

the body shuddered for a mintute, then the eyelids closed, still shaking. suddenly it opened, and Thunders eyes, now bright with life, shown. Thunder smiled at everyone and said, *im sorry.*

Taika sighed with relief, "That scale should keep you sane, as long as it doesn't break."

Thunder grinned. *i know. but we have a problem.*

Taika frowned, "What?" she asked not sure that she wanted to know.

Thunder pointed to his head with his tail. *did that scale have Bolts soul in it?*

Taika shook her head, "No, this one does." she said pointing to the scale on the twine around her neck.
