I HAVE 3 DAY VACATION SO I WON'T BE ABLE TO COMMENT MUCH OH NOOO

Cronin was gaping at Jim and Jetleap, totally suprised. All this for someone they barely knew?

"Er.... well, it was a joke. Yes, a really stupid joke. Partially to test whether or not she was being chased by the Dark Lord, or to see if it brought back any memories..... yeah, it was fake. Well, sort of. I mean, not really...." He stammered and trailed off. What the heck was he trying to say here? He made a stupid joke that almost killed himself twice?

"What do mean, 'not really'?" Mr. Buttons asked, suspicious.

"I mean.... ugh, what am I trying to say.... I sort of, well.... kinda sorta worked for the Dark Lord. But now I don't. No, not at all. I was doing it to survive, but he was so.... rude? More like, evilly rude. He got so angry he kicked me off a cliff once. Good thing I have wings, though!" He was expecting Mr. Buttons to hate him even more, but instead he saw the opposite. It looked like he trusted him.

"Same." He muttered.

Cronin gasped. "You were kicked off a cliff?!"

"No, I used to work for the Dark Lord." Mr. Buttons grimaced.

"Oh." There was a long silence as they all stared at each other. Suddenly, Akurle groaned.

"First the sickness, now this?" Buttons muttered. Cronin perked his ears.

"What did you say?"

The fat cat sighed. "She got really sick as we were climbing. Coughing, weakness, dizziness, sore throat, and... headaches, I think. Then one of the Dark Lord's minions pushed her off a cliff..."

"Woah woah woah!!!" Slow down! Your saying that she was sick, and now...." His eyes widened, and he stared at Akurle. She stared back, unsure what he was staring at in the first place.

"What?" Her head was still swimming, but why was this guy acting like it was the end of the world?

"OH, gosh no." He muttered. His ears drooped.

"What?" Akurle and Mr. Buttons said at the same time.

Cronin sighed sadly. "I'm sorry, but... it doesn't matter that I saved her. She's going to die, no matter what we do."
