Sector 5

When the Young Six woke up, they were chained in a prison cell. They quickly realized that they'd been captured by the Draconians. One of them came into the cell a few minutes later and unchained them from the wall.

"You're coming with me.", he hissed.

The Young Six had no choice but to follow him into a large room where another Draconian sat on a throne and wore a head-dress.

"I am Draconian Emperor Koval. Why are you here?", he asked angrily.

Sandbar spoke up to explain their mission.

"We are explorers on a mission to map part of the universe surrounding our home planet.", he said.

"If you are mapping space, then I want you to give us the location of where you live.", hissed Koval.

Sandbar recognized the tone in Koval's voice.

"By NO means are you invading our home planet.", he yelled back as he and his friends were marched out of the room.

"We'll see about that.", said Koval.

That night, Ocellus realized she still had her power to transform. She turned herself into a bear with razor-sharp teeth and chomped the chains on everyone's shackles. After Yona kicked down the door, they tackled the Draconian guard and raced out of the dungeon. Once outside, they fled into the forest. They realized that another guard on patrol had spotted them because a light shone on them as they were running. Luckily, the guard lost them in the dense forest. In the woods, they met some other Draconians who did not act hostile. They were being kind to them. One of them was named Leon.

"I overheard that you guys are mapping space. Am I right?", he whispered.

Sandbar nodded his head and this group led them underground into a cavern. Leon proceeded to explain what was going on.

"Ever since Koval became Emperor, he has been forcing our friends to invade any planets with intelligent life. All we know is that he is retaliating against someone for some reason. We have tried to find out, but all we do is get caught. Some of us have escaped his clutches and hidden in these caves, while others have been forced into his army. We will help you map out the planet and make sure you get away safely."

Leon explained that the patrols were constant and the Young Six had to time their camera shots carefully by disguising them in the sounds from creatures roaring or when thunder cracked during rainstorms. Draconians could apparently hear a camera flash from up to 200 feet away, meaning they had powerful ears. With only 20% of them not in the army, the odds of not getting captured again were extremely low. The next morning, the Young Six were led by Leon's group of rogues to a hidden facility where their ships were. It turned out that Koval had ordered their ships to be impounded. Luckily, they got their weapons back. Leon had grabbed them before the guards could come back and get them after impounding the ships. The Young Six were grateful that they got their supplies back, but they were also concerned whether they would be able to get their ships back and finish their mission.
