Meanwhile, outside the city, the rest of the birds waited with baited breath to listen to what the King was about to say.

"Where are those blue birds?"
"Jay, Jim and Jake. They aren't well. They stayed home."
"Hmm, well, then, I know what's really going on. They stayed, not because they're sick, but because they wanted to look after the camp."
Matilda gave a soft sigh of relief and said: "Yes, that's what happened."
"Ok. Now birds, GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!"
They rushed away from there, hoping the Blues knew what they were doing.

As night began to fall, they made it back to camp. All of Stella's friends were still up.
"So, how did it go?" Asked Willow
"It went splendidly." Said Bubbles.
"Now all we have to do is wait."

That's when Stella's friends huddled together. After much muttering, Gale spoke up.
"Umm... We were wondering if we could join the main flock. We know it won't be official until Red gets back but..."
She was cut across by Stella.
"That would be amazing!",
"Great then, I'll ask Red if you guys can join when he gets back." Said Chuck
Matilda suddenly appeared
"Okay everyone, to bed with you..."

Very soon, the entire flock was fast asleep. Tomorrow would (hopefully) be the day Red escaped with the Blues and get back to the flock.
