Movement caught the Panthers eye, and he looked up, seeing a large bird with three gems appear. It landed atop the giant stone, and Sebastian was quick to comply, backing away and nudging away any who did not move fast enough.

Suddenly, the gem began to change, and the Panther's fur stood on end. What in the Caves...? It turned itself into something familiar - a Chrysalis! The feline bared his teeth with a snarl, spotting something curled inside. A snake?

He had to squint against the bright lights the phoenix was creating, and it was only once there was a sudden explosion, gemshards slamming into him, that he opened them again. To his horror, an absolutely massive serpent towered over them, sounding absolutely furious. It argued with the bird, before taking off suddenly into the forest, destroying many trees. To his horror, Rift took chase, and the black puma charged after them, yelling "Rift! No!"
