"Correct, I did not warn you, and I do apologize. However, I will admit to misleading you twice..." he laughed gently, before looking down at his furry companion, "He is more of a friend than a pet... But yes... You have proven yourself..." As he spoke his cocoon began to glow, before The Caterpillar, now The Butterfly, broke free. He smiled down at Static, "Now is the time, my friend, to free me of my curse. I have been bound to this mushroom throne... Let me spread my wings and be free..."
Static nodded in understanding, lifting the heart shaped object in his hand. Summoning his own will, the heart activated, shining bright before suddenly The Butterfly shot up into the air. He few above them with a pleasant laugh, "Well done... Now, before I leave... The Queen's Guards are looking for you, try not to travel the main roads... Farewell, and good travels. You'll be home in no time..."
And with that, The Butterfly was gone.
