-Public speaking.

-Yeah! -Cool.

ANGELA: As we've been discussing,

in our modern age, with smartphones,

video blogs, and social media,

learning to speak in public has become a lost art.

That's why, class, for your next assignment,

you're all going to give a speech

in front of the entire station.

-JUN: Ooh! Ooh! -Yes, Jun?

-How long should the speeches be, Mrs. Baker?

-No more than three minutes, Jun.

Now I know public speaking will be easy for some of you,

but for others...

Where did Alex go?

-She did that thing where she disappears.

Like the wind.

Whoosh.

-Alex isn't into public speaking.

-Of course, she's not. She's the wind.

-Whoosh... -[Jun laughs]

-Okay, everyone, that's it for today.

Practice those speeches!

They can be about whatever interests you,

and when Alex reappears,

remind her to practice, too.

*

-Now, buckle up, wingnuts. I'm about to share with you

the life and legend of Chuck Yeager,

the greatest aviator to strap on a helmet. Ha!

-[clapping] -[confused growl]

[clears throat]

-Behold.

Photographic evidence of...

the Chupacabra.

-[sleepy grumble] -[slap]

-Jun...

-You put that energy into the world, Kullersen,

and it comes back to you. Times three.

-That's not true. -[Thunder grumbles]

-Is that true? -Eh... [grunts]

[nervous sigh]

-And that's why proper dental care for pets

cannot be overstated. Which reminds me.

-The back molars are the toughest to reach. -[growling]

[straining, grunt]

Dang, girl! Flossing is your friend.

[growls]

[all groan]

-Alright, Alex. Your turn.

*

-I'm good. My speech is done.

-Done? You haven't even practiced.

-Don't need to. -[screech]

-JUN: [gasps] Whoa! -TOM: Cool!

-Good morning, ICARIS.

Today, I'm going to discuss the importance

of a good avatar. -Whoa.

-Whoa. A hologram for your speech?

That's way better than picturing everyone in their underwear.

-You picture everyone in their underwear?

-Doesn't everyone?

-[buzzing] -This is totally against the rules

and a cheat! The whole point is you have to be brave, Alex,

and get up in front of 100 people.

-Not send this thing. -[whirs]

-Yo! Ah, make it stop eyeballing me.

-Fine, forget it. I'll just take an F.

-Alex! No, come on.

You'll do great.

-Talking to people is easy for you guys,

but I'm more of a "behind the scenes,

speak only if a car's going to hit me" type person.

-Alex... -[beeping]

-Crisis alert. -What is it, Alex?

-Something's triggered the early warning sensors we placed in the Dragon World.

-[beeping] -And it's coming this way.

-We should strategize, set up a defensive perimeter, and--

[panting, grunt]

-Woo-hoo!

-Or we can just recklessly race towards a blaring alarm.

*

-Nothing's here.

-Tom, you can't just blaze off

on your own like that.

-Yeah. This could have been something bad.

-Uh, guys? Something bad.

[foreboding music]

[dragons grumbling]

-Dragon bones. -Cool.

-Cool? There's nothing cool about bones.

-Are you kidding me? If I'm going to be Dr. D.,

I have to understand the dragon skeletal anatomy.

Now, does that look like a rib or a tailbone?

-It looks like a good reason to head home.

-[beeping] -Huh?

-[beeping stops] -What is it?

-Every sensor's going off. -[beeping]

-They're all around us! -What's all around us?

-[screeching] -[all gasp]

[Alex whimpers]

[growls]

*

[roars]

-What the...

[hiss]

[yelps]

-Zombie dragon. Those bones

-must have been its last meal. -[snarls]

-Whatever it is, it still looks hungry. -[shrieks]

[growling]

-[gasps] -Uh, where did it go?

-[curious growl] -No, no, Feathers. Stay with me.

-[screech] -[all gasp]

[fizzles]

-They can cloak!

[growling]

ALL: Run! [panting]

-[hiss] -[gasping, panting]

[screech]

-Get us out of here, pal!

[shrieks]

-Ah! -[zap]

Nice one, pal!

-[panting] Ah!

[grunts]

[gasps] Thanks, Wu Wei.

[D'Angelo yelling, panting]

[shriek]

-You want some D'Angelo? Huh?

Come on!

Ah!

Ah...

-Thanks, girl. Ow... -[grumbles]

[dramatic music]

[panting]

-[gasping] Feathers!

-[shrieking] -No! No!

Feathers! Come back!

[shrieking]

No!

[shrieking]

[hissing, roaring]

[snarls]

[groans]

*

ALEX: She's gone.

I can't believe she's gone.

*

-Perimeter's clear.

-How can you be sure? They turn invisible.

-Jun's right. They look like Feathers, and they cloaked like her.

-Except these were white and seemed undead.

-[Alex gasps] -Oh no, Alex.

I'm sure Feathers will be fine.

-They're not undead!

They're just creepy-looking Feathers-like dragons.

-Actually, in Chinese mythology,

white dragons are an omen of death.

[whimpering]

-Really, Jun?

Not the time.

-I know, I'm sorry. Sometimes I get carried away.

*

-But what if she's right?

-She's not right. -I'm just being a nerd.

Fortunately, no one was bitten.

-W-why is that?

-If undead bite you, you become one.

-Huh!

Fortunately, no one was. [nervous laugh]

-Who cares? All that matters is

those horrible creatures have Feathers,

and we have to get her back!

-Alex, didn't you put a tracker on our saddles?

We can use that to find Feathers.

-Oh yeah. -[beep]

[beeping]

-Got her. -Okay. Let's do this.

-And whatever those things are... -Zombies.

-...we just have to be really quiet.

*

-We're getting closer. Head that way. -[beeping]

[sighs]

-So, uh, Jun, hypothetically speaking,

how long does it take to turn into a zombie?

You know, once bitten.

-The time seems to vary by myth,

but the symptoms are always the same. Fever sweats...

-[sighs] -...dizziness...

-[groans] -...a ghastly moan.

[ghastly moan]

-Yeah, just like that. -Ah!

-And then there's the insatiable hunger for brains.

[gags]

-You airsick, D? -[gasps] No, not at all.

-[beeping] -Feathers is down there! Hurry!

*

-Watch our backs, pal. -[growls]

Yeah, yeah. I know they're invisible.

[beeping]

-[gasps] She's here! [giggles]

[panting]

[sighs] Huh?

-It must have fallen off when they dragged her away.

-I got scared and ran.

I should have been more brave. I should have saved her.

-Alex, it's not your fault. If you didn't run,

they would have grabbed you, too.

-At least we'd still be together.

Now, I'm all alone. Again.

-You're not alone. We're with you.

-You'll always have us.

[distant screech]

-That sounded like Feathers.

-Plowhorn, track that screech. -[sniffing]

[growls]

-We're going to get her back.

[panting]

-[Alex gasps] -Whoa.

-[whirring] -[dragons mewing]

-Wow, look at that. They're acting in unison

like they're psychically connected.

-Do zombies have a hive mind?

-I don't know about zombies in particular,

but these guys seem to be linked.

Zombies are generally considered just eating machines,

but I suppose they could be connected

in that singular drive to find food.

-[groggy]: Yes...

-What are you doing? -Nothing!

-What creature in the animal kingdom

actually has a psychically linked hive mind?

*

-Why are you looking at me? -You're the animal expert.

-It's not like I'm a part of their hive mind or something.

-Jeez. -That isn't what I asked.

-Can we focus on Feathers, please?

I'm running a thermal scan.

It should be able to spot her if she's down there.

[mewing]

JUN: Hm. The others are all registering as cold.

-Zombie theory is looking more and more-- -TOM: Jun!

-JUN: Sorry. -ALEX: There! She's still alive!

And they're holding her prisoner.

Those monsters!

-It's okay. We'll get her back, Alex.

How are we gonna get her back, Tom?

[D'Angelo groaning]

TOM: Their wings, they're all torn up.

I bet we can fly right over them and rescue her. Come on!

[groaning, grunts]

*

You got her?

-Mm-hmm. She's on top of the tower.

[dragons hissing]

[roaring]

-Tom, I think they saw us!

-Stay up high! We'll be fine!

-You know, maybe we should just go down there and join them, girl.

Give ourselves over to the power of the horde.

-[growling] -No? Just a thought.

[roaring]

-Hold on! -[whimpering] I'm trying!

-I hear you, my zombie brethren.

Your cries echo in my beatless heart.

-[growls] -Oh. Sorry, girl.

I can't help myself.

[roars]

[both grunting, straining]

[roaring]

-[grunting, gasping] Ah!

[sighs] Tom!

-We can't keep this up! -ALEX: We're almost there!

*

[whimpering]

There she is! Hurry!

[growls]

-[both gasp] -[roars]

-Pull back!

[snarls]

-No! Feathers! -[Feathers whimpers]

[loud roar]

[screaming]

[grunting]

[panting]

-You okay, pal? -[grunting]

-Is everyone alright? -I think I need a reboot.

-I'm okay. Not sure about Wu and Wei.

[weak grumbling]

-[dragon growling] -Feathers...

-D'Angelo, you good?

[heavy breathing]

D'ANGELO: Stop! Don't come near me.

*

-Look at his arm. D'Angelo! You've been bitten!

-[gasps] I'm one of them!

The undead!

Bug out and save yourselves!

-Oh, come on, D! You just let Jun's stories get in your head!

-Zombies aren't real. -You sure they're not real?

-Course I'm sure! You're perfectly healthy.

-He's right. I got caught up in the stories.

And besides, if you had been bitten,

the zombie saliva in your bloodstream

would have made you undead long before now.

-[gasps] I have... been feeling it.

It's [gasps] been happening!

-Ah! -D'Angelo.

[yelling]

[growls]

-It's true! I'm turning! Just-just leave me here, girl,

and save yourselves, I'll roam the Hidden World

with the rest of the hideous horde.

-You are not a real zombie, and nobody's leaving you here.

-Fine. Then there is only one way

to keep you guys safe from me.

[growls]

-Seriously, I can't believe you're making me do this.

You are not a zombie. Is that too tight?

-It needs to be tight! Okay, this is the only way

to keep you safe from me.

-Can someone scratch my nose? -[dragons screeching]

*

[screeching continues]

-The horde. -We gotta get outta here.

[growls]

Our dragons can't fly. We'll have to make a run for it.

-But, what about Feathers?

-Alex, we don't have a choice. We'll have to come back later.

-No! We are not leaving without Feathers.

D'Angelo, Plowhorn, make a barrier

out of these crystals to hold back the horde.

Jun, Wu, and Wei, fortify it with freeze blast.

Tom, Thunder, give them some cover.

I'm going to get Feathers.

-I'll go with you. -No.

Stay here and help Jun and D.

Some things you have to face alone.

[heroic music]

-Be the wind, Alex. Whoosh!

-You heard her. Let's do this! -[growls]

[dragons snarling]

[Alex whimpering]

-Hold on, Feathers. I'm coming.

[gasps]

[whimpers]

[growls, snarls]

[snarling, hissing]

[growls]

You're brave, Alex. You're brave.

You are brave.

*

-Hey, Jun? We could use

one of your mythology-based teaching moments

right about now!

[screech]

-Yeah, how to win against hordes

of undead zombie dragons?

No real allegorical fable for that.

D'ANGELO: Use me!

I'm dripping in fever sweats. Bathe yourselves in it,

-then they'll think you're one of them! -Ew...

[roars]

-Let's just keep blasting.

We gotta buy Alex more time.

[blasting, zapping]

[straining, panting]

[grunt, sigh]

-[whimpering] -[dragon growling]

-You're brave, Alex. You're brave.

[panting, grunting]

-[gasps] Feathers! -[Feathers whimpers]

It's okay, it's okay. I'm gonna get you out of here.

[growls, purrs]

[chirping]

I'm going to get you all out.

[grunting]

Come on. Come on.

-[growls] -Co--Uh...

-[growling] -[whimpering]

Ah! [yelling]

Avatar. Avatar.

-That's it, we're out of steam.

[growling]

-Oh, no you don't!

ALL: Alex!

[roars]

[crumbling]

-[chirping] -ALEX: Wait a minute.

They're colorful underneath.

They're not zombies.

[chirp]

-Of course! They're just molting!

Shedding old skin.

It can make some animals feel vulnerable,

so they act aggressive.

Wait. That means...

-You're not turning into a zombie, D. -Phew.

-You're just nuts.

-Hey... -[Plowhorn grumbles]

I'm back, girl!

Can someone untie me? My hands fell asleep.

[dragon growls]

[snarl]

-Alex! Blast the rest of them! Hurry!

-Sing 'em to sleep, Feathers.

[purring]

-Looks like Feathers chose you

over going with the other Featherhides.

-She needs me as much as I need her,

and she doesn't care if I can't give a speech

in front of a crowd of people.

I'm brave enough for her when it counts.

[purr]

-You sure are. -D'ANGELO: Hello?

Now, I can't feel my thighs!

-Alright, alright, alright. Let's get you untied.
