A/N: Sorry for not updating! I haven't had school in a while (because of the coronavirus) and my parents have almost never given me time to type. I'm supposed to be 'active' in these times, according to them, and I've had schoolwork.

"I've got one." Tsunami said. "Go in and murder Darkstalker. That'll solve the problem. He deserves it anyway." Tsunami wanted nothing more than to punch Darkstalker. Hurt him for hurting her friends, and now her little sister. Nobody touched Auklet unless they wanted to be killed. So that was exactly what Tsunami wanted to do.

"Though that seems tempting, we can't." Glory said. "For one, we'll be in as much trouble as he is. Two, there's only a small chance of it working, and with as many guards as Darkstalker has, we don't stand a chance. Three, we have two very small children with us. I assume murdering someone would cause just a little bit of trauma, don't you think?"

"Fine." Tsunami grumbled.

"I've got an idea." Sunny piped up. "What if we would go through the vents, like we did last time?"

Fatespeaker shook her head. "That wouldn't work either. Since he knows how we escaped, he probably he completely closed off most of the vents, or at least has some kind of trap, or something to stop us there."

"Yeah." Sunny said. "You're right."

"I've got one." Meerkat said. "What if I would take you all somewhere, and since I am working with Darkstalker, I could get through all the guards. We need to get Auklet and Umber to safety first, though. So we'll get all of you out of here, and then I'll go back in and capture Darkstalker. After that, we get Glory's mom. We still have our phones, so we can call the police after that."

"Its not a bad idea." Starflight said. "But how do we know you're not going to turn us all in?"

"I think we should let Sunny make the decision." Clay said. "If she thinks it's okay, and trusts Meerkat to do this, then I think we should do it."

"I think it's a good idea." Sunny said. "And though I don't know if Meerkat will turn us in, I think it's the best chance we've got. But I think we should do it late tomorrow night. The people Darkstalker has hired will be really tired, and it will be late enough to have Darkstalker think we're asleep, and also late enough to where he thinks we aren't leaving. Normally, we leave as soon as we can, but if we wait a little bit, it will seem less likely that we're escaping."

"I like it." Glory said. "But when we're dealing with my mom, I'm helping. I'd like to have a few words with her."

"Okay." Tsunami said. "Then it's final. Tomorrow night. Darkstalker should be here with dinner soon. Let's enjoy it!"

"Sure." Glory grumbled. "Enjoying something from this jerk."

"I mean, it is better than starving us." Sunny pointed out.

"True." Glory said. "But that doesn't mean I have to like it."

"I don't think any of us like it." Starflight said.

"No." They all chorused.
