"Oh yay I helped!"

Dayo does a distinctly draconic snort.

"Okay, then... what does this mean? We got kidnapped and then we dreamed about these pocket dimensions? How? And why?"

"Well, where do they even come from? And why'd we all dream them?"

Felix stares at the people he might have created. "I don't know. But we should find the others in this dimension too."

"Good thing the three of us can fly then."

"And presumably have better ability to defend yourselves than getting covered in fire. Which is specific to this dimension so remember to put yourselves out before leaving."

"Yeah, should we split up? Ah, Dayo, you should be able to stick permanent shadows on people's eyes to blind them. And I don't know if either of you got the lightning gift, but I don't think you should experiment with using it just yet."

"I'm fireproof anyway," Dayo says, giving a draconic shrug.

"Splitting up is probably a good idea, yeah," says Jessica, eyeing Dayo.

"One or two of us," she indicates her own group, "per skymage and maybe leave the rest here taking care of your sleeping friend?"

"Maybe leaving Jessica here too. She would notice people coming and catch them by surprise with her water." Felix starts pulling condensing water from the air into clouds, presumably for Jessica's use.

"Yeah can do." She grabs it.

"Who wants a giant flying lizard ride?"

"I do. We can focus on spotting people from the outside and Felix's team can go inside."

"I do think I recognize the layout of this place. Sort of."

Two people volunteer to go with Felix and they start moving away the rubble that was blocking pursuers from accessing this balcony.

She's a dragon, she can help with that.

But after that: up, up, and away!

With Vera on her back. They circle around the place and Vera indicates where to check for people in need of rescuing. "Could you tell me what happened?"

"We were kidnapped for some reason, apparently one of my boyfriends is someone's clone, who knows what's up with that, then we all had bizarre dreams, then we woke up and I turned into a dragon and rescued us and now we're trying to find Earth again."

She is about to ask. But then she spots a gazebo that they should check out as a hiding place.

So they can go check it out as a hiding place.

Vera checks and sighs. "It's just a statue that fell-" abruptly she falls to her knees.

Dayo can feel a familiar lash of cold trying to take hold on her tail.

Good thing her tail is sufficiently large to knock the fucking reptilian out. She sweeps it and turns around, roaring. "Either you leave or I will bake you. You have two seconds to decide."

Well, there is a scream, which appears to be trying to get away in the orange glow. So that's an answer.

"Do you think we should try interrogating one of them?"

"I think maybe a human or something closer to a human should be making these kinds of decisions. How are you even awake?"
