"I don't want to put an end to your reunion or anything, but the girl's right." He nodded in Ace's direction. "If we stay any longer, we'll be found. Ace, right? I still owe you a ride." Garret's faithful companion received a soft pat to the neck and the dragon lowered itself so the redhead would be able to scramble onto its back. "Xavier here's got enough room for a lot of you," he motioned for Victoria and Numair to follow and both did so without hesitation. "Two more, the younger ones can't carry as heavy a load." He looked to Harper, but the boy was still staring at the guides.
Beneath the shadow of his hat, Songbird's expression was almost unreadable. The item hunter had both hands crossed over his chest and his gaze focused on Brandy. "What are you planning to do?" He asked his best friend. If Brandy was going to leave on some crazy mission to help these humans then he wasn't going to let his friend leave alone. "I think it's a crazy thing to consider, but I'll follow you." His eyes landed on both Leila and Harper. The humans were a pain in the butt, that was for sure... but they weren't all bad.
At this point Ran and a few of the trainees were organizing their escape.
"Sorry about Cobalt, he just misses you." The black dragon let out a happy roar before Ise pointed in Luxa's direction. "Actually, the gang's all here. We should have enough dragons for everyone. They grow so fast, you know?" She tried to keep a smile on her face, but her eyes would occaisionally flit towards the injured Toby and the discussing guides. "Hey, Ran, why don't you come with me and Cobalt, we can take one other person too."
The suggestion made Cobalt's eyes light up and soon Ran found himself bowled over once more.
"I need two more people," Garret's voice rang out once more and he focused on C and Luke.
"You should go," Luke chimed in. "Looks like he really misses you." Garret called them once more, so after giving Ran a friendly wave, Luke dragged C along with him.
Riley was with Dune and Tasha. And while everyone climbed aboard, Garret allowed everyone to converse for a bit more before he called out for Inadi and the remaining humans to mount their assigned dragons. "We can't spare any more time—what?"
Before Garret could say more, both rabbit sisters crawled out of the hole to join them. Serenade looked a little pale in the face.
"They're sending soldiers into the tunnels, it's time for you to go."
Songbird bit back a frown and explained the situation to sisters. Serenade shook her head, but Dissonance like the others looked conflicted.
"It's time to go," Garret's dragon flapped its wings. If the guides wanted to come along, they had to choose now.
