[G] [H] 743.08.03 | Night Stalkers Hatching

A jolt of excitement shot through Cazan as she saw Mylorah walk up to the gold and she turned to grin at A'tay and then back around at T'ryn only to see K'dar get up and walk off. Her smile faltered for a moment. "I hope he's okay," she said softly to A'tay. Turning around did give her a chance to spot Kor'is though and she gave him a smile too before turning her attention back to the hatching. I'm glad your baby picked Mylo. Me too! I told them all stories about my favorites, it seemed some of them listened! Cazan had no idea effective those stories actually were, it was entirely possible that the babies just happened to like the people for the same reasons that Malvayth liked them and the stories were completely unnecessary. But just in case she gave Mal a pat and smiled. I'm glad you tell them stories.

Another egg cracked, this time to reveal Green 3. She seemed quite clumsy as she kept slipping and falling and landing back in her shell. Eventually she managed to fully escape her egg, and after looking around trotted off (with frequent clumsy trips) towards the low wall that separated the spectators from the candidates. Cazan immediately felt a pang of old familiar dread as she stared at the little thing as it kept trying to hop and climb at the barrier. Green 4 had hatched by then and curiously went to see what all the fuss, hopping partially up with her front legs on the wall to try and se what her sister was so obsessed about on the other side.

Blue 4 managed to hatch while his sisters were being distractions, tumbling out of his egg to stretch and let out a warbling cry before prancing around to inspect his options. Green 5 hatched shortly after, taking a few clumsy and stumbling steps around before she seemed to get the hang of walking before going to check on her sisters. Cazan's dread grew and she could only stare as Green 3 pitifully chirped at her sister, but Green 4 seemed to grow bored of the wall and turned to wander off back towards the candidates. That would have been a relief except she was quickly replaced by Green 5 who chirped curiously before using her head to shove Green 3 up and over the wall with a startled chirp so she could go find her person.

"Oh no..." Cazan was starting to feel almost dizzy for a moment as she watched everything turn to even more chaos; she completely missed Green 4 calmly trotting off to find her boy so that she could go eat. Blue 4 also chose that moment to find his boy, enthusiastically circling him for a few moments before they headed off to the sidelines for food. And then Green 5 gave a small wiggle of her tail and leapt up, landing on top of the wall in a startling display of balance for a moment before tumbling across the other side and crying to someone for help and comfort.

Taking advantage of the enormous distraction his sisters had caused, Blue 5 quietly escaped his shell and circled around behind a group of boys to loudly squawk behind his chosen to announce his presence. Once his boy had calmed down the two trotted off together. Blue 6 hatched shortly after that, taking a moment to scratch at himself before walking over to a group of boys to impress his mate without much fuss.

After the onslaught of blues and greens, Bronze 1 hatched, taking his time as he paced around to study the candidates. Taking a page from his sisters he slowly stalked along the wall, occasionally clawing his front up to peek over the side at the people there curiously. Cazan didn't realize she was holding her breath until the bronze turned around and walked back to the candidates, walking straight to a boy and giving him a firm nudge with his head before walking directly off to the food buckets he'd spotted earlier in his rounds.
