*A flower? How are you going to find a flower all the way up here?* he asked, shaking his head as he circled around her. *I suppose that if you want flowers you might neaed to head to the aerie. There are some funny looking plants there.*
He indicated the small patch of green that appeared as a dot near the middle of the mountain. Nefar shook his head slightly, but whether in amusement or concern, few would have been able to tell.
*I suppose Puck is up to his tricks again in some way.* he commented. *Come on, I'll show you a good cure for poison.*

Supposed to be looking.

Has to be better than this!

Everett kept looking, trying to listen, and seeing if the Chirra was keeping up.

Keelin was frantic, she tried to panic but a little voice came from her statchel.
"findlible mesid joo god jor selb indoooo." Pook said tautingly. "Don panib, jobb made id worsd. I duppose do need by help."
Keelin stopped panicing, took the mudge out and threw him to a spot she thought was solid, hopefull she got it right. "Get us something to pull us out, a vine, and tie it to a tree quickly!!!" Keelin hoped he would help them.
"Bwy? Joo god joorself indo da mess inda fird placed." he huffed. "Bwodden?! Bore Bwodden and I dos ditd!" He looked hopeful and started waging his little stump of a tail.
"yes, more rotten, anything you want just get us out!!!" oh the things people agree to in times such as this. She sank a little deeper.
Pook jumped. "Dow Goodey boor Bwodden!" he started singing as he looked for a vine and chewed it down almost forgetting what he was doing and was just chewing the vine. "Do, do do Pood." he said to himself. "Dummi yed, bud nod bwodden!" He tied one end to a nearby tree and tried to throw the other end to them but it fell short. "Don word, dorry joo bwill die, bye, had fund bwen door dead!" He scamperd away happily.

Paige was keeping up with Everett, but looking for the flower at the same time. "Hey feather dusta, the Jack in the Poppit hides just like me!! Just like me!!!" She started singing. "Just like me, just like me, lookin for a flower just like me. Will find it and grab it and bring it to a bird. Maybe he will give me somthing shiney as a reward!!!!" She twirled in the air at that thought. "SHINEY DUSTA!! HE'S GONNA GIVE US SHINIES!! I know it, I thought of it myself and therefor...." She stopped right in front of Everett keeping him in midflight. "Therefor, it's true!! I tell you it's the truth!"
She flew towards Edana who was talking to another dragon.
"Hello dragons! We are getting shinies and that's the truth!! It's the truth." She started singing again. "Shinies for me, shinies for scaley, shinies for feather dusta and more for me!!! She did another twirl in midflight.

"GAHH POOK!! Don't leave us!!" She was almost appauled at the manners of mudges but knew that they were nearly evil and therefor very selfish beings. Doing something like helping someone out was a rare thing indeed but still, she thought better of the little mudge. "Pook, Pook, listen NOW! Listen to me" She was sinking lower and lower, she was almost to her waist now. "Get the vine, it's good that you tied it, you did a good job." She sounded as if talking to an insane child. "But get it, grab ahold of it with your teeth get on a limb and swing it to us!" She was hoping he would do this, really hoping. "Please and if it dosn't work just try it again and if you get us out, a rotten ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFET at Pandara's!!!!" Oh she was really laying it on thick.
Pook stopped at that last part even though he heard it all "Bwodden!! Ald Id cand ead bwodden!!!" His tail wagged and he jumped up and down. "Dall wide, geusd joo don wanda die, doh weld." He took the vine into his teeth and jumped up onto the tree, his slime kept him secure like a snail as he slithered up as fast as a mudge could. "Joo mudg droble ober domnin lidk lidfe. Don wanda die, cand bwam joo, Pookd don wanda die eider. Pookd don wanda die adal. But Pookd don careib ib joo die caud joo not Pookd! Bud Pookd dlike bwodden, ad jess, Pookd Dlike bwodden!" He was saying all this nearly incoherently as he reached a brach holding on tight. "Jerrd id does, bun I don di... k?" he jumped off and swung to Keelin.

Chael watched in disbelief as the mudge not only failed to help them but seemed to delight in it.
Deciding they could not rely on Pook, Chael thought quickly about how they could get out of this sticky mess.

Just as Chael was remembering something he had heard about lying flat if one becomes stuck in quicksand, he saw Pook make a leap towards them with the vine.

Pook actually made it! He actually made it! "Dun dun dun, jon bworry dear da Pookd id here!" He handed the vine to Keelin.
" Here Chael, you are probably strongest why don't you bite onto the vine and we hold onto you as we help pulling ourselves out." She handed the vine to Chael and held threw Pook back to the former spot as she held on. "better yet, Pook is less weight over there and can warn others if this dosn't work or try again."
Pook was a bit dazed from the throw "Jee howd joo are!?" He stuck his tongue outl

Chael grabbed the vine and summoned all his strength to pull himself out of the sludge with Keelin holding on to him. He grunted with the effort as he slipped back into the mud.
"Once more," he told himself. And he put even more effort into the task, which paid off, as he made some headway out of the spot they were in, bringing them just that bit closer to the more solid ground.
Puffing and panting, Chael realised he probably only had one or two more reserves of strength left. "Uff!" and they were only a short distance from safe ground.

Keelin tried to help Chael as much as possible. "You can do it Chael!!" She held on the unicorns back with her hooves and tried to help pull up the rope and she also tried to move the mud from on them to under them with her hooves when she could hold on with her arms. "COME ON ALMOST THERE!" She looked hopeful.
The mudge was on the solid ground eating a rotten vine not paying attention to what was going on at all.

With the last of his hidden reserves, Chael pulled himself forward out of the sludge. Only after checking to see if Keelin had made it with him, did he collapse on the land.

Everett knew that Chirras liked shiny objects. He guessed that this Chirra, no matter how annoying, had to be his partner....so he followed it. "Paige whoo whoo. Be here, we should not," Everett said.

"Best we rest a bit. I hope this is a safe place to camp." She went to hunt some fire wood. Sure she was tired but long nights of dancing had made her be able to summon up strength she didn't have when she needed it, she knew how to push herself well past her limit. "Everything is wet but I think I have some flint, hopefully we can get something going." She proceeded to gather up the wood and attempt to make a fire. "We can't get clean, but we may be able to get warm and dry."
Ahh success, Keelin was an excellent woods person, she grew up there anyway. She took off her dress and stretched it out with some sticks near the fire. She was very innocent and unaware of her nudity, she was a satyr and therefor it wasn't taboo if it was necessary, and getting dry was most necessary. She missed the clean air of the forest glen, she missed the green leaves and firm land beneath her hooves and most of all, she missed the blue sky sparkling through the canopy of leaves. "Pook, can you keep watch?" Keelin asked. She threw him some food, all of hers now rotten hopefully she could find something to eat around here. The quickslush tainted all the greens she had packed. She didn't really care if the mudge was going to keep watch at this point, she curled up and rested on the unicorn falling into dream.

Paige caught herself. "Ahhh yes, lookin for the flower, nearly forgot. "She daftly dove down towards the ground and resumed her search. It was fun, searching for something so elusive, almost like a game of hide and seek. "tag flower your it! Only flowers, they can't tag back...." She moved brush searching in a randomn pattern going by pure instinct with her search.
