“Cabin Fever Part 6”

************

(Haru slowly approaches Yuki and Calabolt, fixing his gaze on the glowing orb)

{Yuki}

(swiftly tries to cover his shining toy)

“…those were meanie creatures. Even if they look cool like small dragons with dragonfly wings, they leave a big mess. I saved all the shiny cuties and got me a cool reward!”

{Haru}

(sternly looks towards Yuki)

“Cool reward eh? Yuki… You did not save anything. In fact…”

{Calabolt}

“Huh?”

{Yuki}

“Ignore him, Cala-chan. Look at his eyes! He can’t keep them off of my precious treasure. He’s just so jealous.”

{Haru}

(flies right in front of Yuki)

“Where exactly did you find… Clearly, you do not understand how bloomsprites ecology works!”

(a loud scream echoes from the outside)

{???}

(unintelligible screams)

“…skreee!”

{Calabolt}

“What was that?”

(Haru flies out quickly towards the door)

{Yuki}

“Hey! Where are you going?”

{Calabolt}

(follows Haru)

“Oh! It’s those Bloomsprites!”

{Yuki}

“…and also those meanie Dragulyths again. Why I oughta…”

{Calabolt}

“Careful, Yuki. You do not want to be attacked like earlier, do you?”

{Yuki}

(shivers)

“No. But…”

(the bloomsprites scream but to no avail)

{Yuki}

“…we can’t just stand here and watch them get eaten!”

{Calabolt}

“Uhh… I don’t know if we should… What do you think, Haru-kun?”

{Haru}

(whispers)

“As I thought, these Bloomsprites are disorganized. Usually, when their species is attacked by the Dragulyths… Their Queen appears and protects them. However…”

(Haru looks gravely towards the glow coming from Yuki’s back)

{Yuki}

“…every moment spent just standing here isn’t helping! We have to…”

(Haru rushes forward to block Yuki from approaching the Bloomsprites and the Dragulyths)

{Calabolt}

“Haru-kun!?”

{Yuki}

(lands back on Calabolt’s hair and yanks it vigorously)

“What are you doing, Cala-chan? Move it!”

{Calabolt}

“Ouch!”

{Haru}

(ponders as he moves in between the Bloomsprites and the Dragulyths)

“That explains why Yuki was attacked by such peaceful creatures…”

(startled by Haru, the Dragulyths fly a few inches back to observe)

{Yuki}

“Hiyaa! Onwards, Cala-chan!”

{Calabolt}

(runs to Haru’s side)

“C-Calm down, Yuki.”

{Yuki}

(starts to gather strong winds around him)

“And what? Watch them die in front of us?”

{Calabolt}

“No. No, that’s not what I… Let’s wait for Haru-kun.”

(Haru severely glares at Yuki which prompts the young fae to stop)

{Haru}

(looks back towards the Dragulyths)

“As I’ve said before… Dragulyths depend on the Bloomsprites for their nutrition. You should not kill them because of their natural instinct.”

{Yuki}

“B-But…”

(Haru sternly looks towards Yuki, making him flinch)

{Calabolt}

(gently rubs Yuki’s orb, calming him down)

“Let him finish, Yuki.”

(Yuki nods)

{Haru}

(tries to sway the Dragulyths away with his flapping wings)

“However, if the Queen is not there to protect them…”

{Calabolt}

“So… Where is she now?”

{Haru}

“The current one is possibly dead but…it is said that every flower moon marks the birth of a new queen.”

(the Dragulyths roar and hiss, trying to get to the wounded Bloomsprites)

{Haru}

“And YOU left those poor creatures to fend for themselves.”

{Yuki}

“Wait, how come it’s my fault?!”

{Haru}

“Worst, they are now endangered because their new queen will most probably die.”

(two of the flying reptiles goes past the group rushing towards a Bloomsprite)

{Calabolt & Yuki}

“Huh?”

(Haru summons branches and twigs to sway them away)

{Calabolt}

“Good work, Haru-kun! Just in the nick of time.”

{Yuki}

(vigorously flapping his wings to push away the ravenous creatures)

“We could’ve acted much earlier and…”

{Haru}

“We’re not done yet…”

(a whole swarm of Dragulyths now surrounds Yuki’s fortress)

{Yuki}

“Oh no… Not my treehouse!”

(Haru instinctively creates a dome made of thorns to shield them and the Bloomsprite colony from the swarming Dragulyths)

{Haru}

“It’s safe to assume that these Bloomsprites are the last of their kind… They probably won’t survive even if they find their Queen.”

{Yuki}

“Huh? Why is that? And where…”

(without a word, Haru steals the glowing stone from Yuki and flies towards the Bloomsprites)

{Yuki}

“Hey! Where are you taking that?”

(the Bloomsprites hiss in a threatening unintelligible language)

{Haru}

(approaches the hostile Bloomsprites)

“Easy, easy… I’m not here to harm you.”

(cautiously, a Bloomsprite comes forward to face Haru)

{Haru}

“I understand your feelings. That’s why we must work together and try to save her!”

{Calabolt & Yuki}

(whispers)

“He knows their language?!”

{Haru}

“This is yours, isn’t it?”

(Haru bows and presents the shining stone before the Bloomsprites)

{Yuki}

“Hey! That’s…!”

(a Bloomsprite cautiously flies closer to inspect what Haru was holding)

{Calabolt}

(standing guard)

“Yuki, not now! Stay here!”

(a sudden heart-like beat pulsed from the ground as the Bloomsprite touched the orb)

{Haru}

“It’s faint but… she’s still alive.”

{Calabolt}

(peeks through the surrounding thorns)

“W-What’s happening? T-The whole forest outside is glowing on a pulse!”

{Yuki}

(shaking from the vibration)

“Coool!”

(more Bloomsprites rush towards the dome, encircling it while humming a peaceful song)

{Calabolt}

(runs towards Haru)

“A-Are you alright, Haru-kun?”

{Yuki}

(hiding behind Calabolt)

“They won’t hurt us, right?”

{Haru}

“Why would they? Bloomsprites, by nature, are peaceful creatures. And I just returned their Queen.”

{Calabolt}

“Queen?”

{Haru}

“I’ll explain later. We need to make sure that these poor creatures outside survive.”

{Yuki}

“Yeah. But what can we do? You don’t even want us to hurt the meanies!”

{Haru}

“Ughh… then leave it to me!”

(with the Bloomsprites support, Haru channels Majïk to grow a huge wall of thorns swirling around Yuki’s treehouse)

{Haru}

“This should be sufficient enough to stop the Dragulyths attack until the Bloomsprites are strong enough to… arrrgh…”

(Haru falls to the ground from over-using his Majïk)

{Calabolt}

(catching Haru)

“Haru-kun! Are you alright?”

{Haru}

“Yes… I’m fine. But I think I overdid it…”

{Calabolt}

(gently smiles looking at the size of the wall Haru conjured)

“You sure have!”

{Yuki}

“B-But… My h-house…”

{Haru}

“What do you mean? It was already a big mess, to begin with!”

{Yuki}

“B-But… B-But…”

{Haru}

“…ack.”

{Calabolt}

“H-Haru-kun?”

{Haru}

(swipes off Calabolt’s hand)

“D-Don’t worry about me. I’m fine. But we don’t have much time.”

(Bloomsprites rally around the fae)

{Haru}

“W-We need to make sure that the Queen will be born in a safe place.”
