TRUTH OR DARE!

WARNING! SPOILERS FOR BOOK SIX! READ THAT BEFORE YOU PROCEED ANY FURTHER!

Kinkajou was racing around, trying to find EVERY SINGLE ONE of her friends.

"Guys!" she shouted when she saw them. "There is a TOTALLY SERIOUS GAME THAT WE NEED TO PLAY RIGHT NOW."

"What…" Winter said, suddenly doubting the reasons why he was in the study cave.

"It's called TRUTH OR DARE! Come on! It's safe! We can play it right now!" Kinkajou said, sitting down where she stood.

"I'll play." Moon said quietly.

"I'll play too!" Qibli and Winter almost shouted at the same time. They glared at each other.

"I guess I'll play…" Turtle said, wondering if this was the right choice.

"Um… I'll play to, I guess." Umber said, looking longingly towards to Prey center. "Fine. As long as I get to violently disembowel someone." Carnelain grumbled.

"Uh… With words and torturing you can!" Kinkajou said nervously. Carnelian smiled evilly.

"Great!" Kinkajou shouted. "Let me explain the rules…"

ONE HOUR LATER…

"Does everyone understand? Great, I'll go first! Winter, Truth or Dare?"

"Dare. IceWing princes are not afraid of anything."

"Wonderful." Kinkajou said evilly. "I dare you to DO THE CHICKEN DANCE WHENEVER YOU TRUTH OR DARE SOMEONE."

Winter gaped. Carnelian started hooting with laughter. Qibli was trying not to laugh, and Moon had given up trying.

"Now you get Truth or Dare someone!" Kinkajou said brightly. Winter started to do the Chicken Dance.

"Umber, Truth or Dare?" Winter asked, grumbling.

Umber thought. Winter's dare had been funny to watch, but he didn't want something like that to happen to him.

"Truth?" Umber asked nervously. Winter smiled, but it was not a nice smile.

"Who do you have a crush on?" Winter asked. Umber paled. "IhaveacrushonErmine." He said hurriedly.

"Turtle Truth or Dare?!" Umber asked loudly.

"Um… Dare."

"Turtle, I dare you to go up to your uncle and scream 'HELLO, STINKY FISH FACE!'" Turtle looked horrified.

"O-ok." He stuttered.

AT THE RUINS OF THE SUMMER PALACE…

"You there, what are you doing here?!" Shark bellowed angrily. Turtle took a deep breath and shouted

"HELLO, STINKY FISH FACE!" Shark stared, speechless at the retreating form of his nephew. Beside him, Coral was silently shaking with laughter.

WHEN TURTLE GOT BACK…

"NEVER MAKE ME DO THAT AGAIN!" Turtle screamed at Umber as he landed. The enraged SeaWing dove for Umber, tackling him to the ground.

"Go, Turtle!" Carnelian shouted with glee. "Finally, some violence!" Qibli and Moon tried to pull Turtle off Umber.

"AHHH! STOP!" Umber shouted.

LATER…

Umber, who was quite shaken, asked. "Carnelian, Truth or Dare."

"Dare. Duh." Carnelian said grumpily.

"I dare you to throw a dragonfruit at Queen Glory."

"Ha! You call that a dare?" Carnelian sneered.

IN THE RAINFOREST…

"Hey! Queen Glory! Catch this!" SPAT!

"WHAT?! HOW DARE YOU?!" Deathbringer wildly chased Carnelian around the RainForest.

"Who did it this time?" Grander asked. "Some Jade Mountain student." Glory told her.

"I bet they did it on a dare."

"Most likely."

AT JADE MOUNTAIN…

Deathbringer dragged Carnelian back into the cave, kicking and screaming.

"AAHHH! WWHHHHYYYYY!" Deathbringer dumped Carnelian on the floor. She got up in a daze. "Uhhhnnn…" she moaned. "Qibli Trutthh oorr Darre…" "Uh… Dare?"

"I dare you to sing Tsunami's least favorite song in front of her."

"THHEE DRRAGGOONETTS ARRE COMMINGG! THEY'RE COOOMIING TO FFIIIGHHHT FOOR TTHEYY KNOOOOOW WHAT'S RIIIGHHT! THHEE DRAAGOONEEETTTS AREEEE COMMMIINNNGGGG!"

"AAAHHHH! STOP!" Tsunami threw Qibli back into the cave.

"Ow! Ow! Whyyyy!" Qibli wailed.

"Nice singing voice you got there." Winter teased.

"Hmph. Moon, Truth or Dare." "Truth." Moon said.

"Do I really have a terrible singing voice?" Qibli asked nervously.

"Um… maybe?"

"Yes." Winter said without remorse.

"Kinkajou, Truth or Dare?" Moon asked hurriedly, noting the looks of death Qibli and Winter were giving each other.

"Dare! Dare! DARREEE!" Kinkajou shouted.

"I dare you to watch the entire season of Meat-eaters." Moon said smugly.

"GASP!"

LATER…

"WHYYY! BUNNY RABBITS, I SHALL AVENGE YOOUU!"

"Kinkajou, stop! It's just a show!"

"YAAAA! DEATH TO YOU, MEAT-EATERS SCAVENGER! MAY YOU DIE SLOWLY BY MY MAGIC DEATH SPIT!"

IN THE PRESENT…

"You're on! Winter, Truth or Dare?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to…"
