Cloud walked below FreakShow, “When you’re done swinging could you give us some riddles?” She asked politely

"Okay! Here's the first riddle on how to escape!" FreakShow said. "What force and strength cannot get through

I with a gentle touch can do,

And many in the street would stand

We're I not a friend at hand!"

(No looking it up! You have to think this through)

Zari glanced up at the insane dragon swinging from the chandelier. She put the pouch of her winnings under her wing, beginning to think about the riddle.

Sage pressed her talon to her shoulder, blood instantly covering it, swaying on her talons. She clutched the side of a bar stool, the wield blurring in and out in front of her.

Cloud paced worriedly, she had always been bad bad at riddles. She sighed I guess there’s just no getting around this. She looked up at Freak, “I’m afraid I don’t know the answer” she said calmly, digging her claws into the ground to keep from shaking

Darner sat there contemplating the riddle.

“I’ve got a riddle for you” maple says

"Oooo do tell!"

Is it a distraction? Darner thought. Or a butter knife? Or peace? Wait peace is to weird why would creepy freak give peace?

Pakhet thought about the riddle as she finished patching up Dawn and moved on to Sage. Force and strength can't get through... riddles aren't going to have cheesy answers like love, so... were I not a friend at hand? Why would they be standing... um... Maybe I should focus on the top two... fire? no, that wouldn't be gentle.

Recap??!))
