While hiding, Sunstrike and his sisters spot a white pterosaur landing on a branch above them. Sunstrike wonders if the pterodactyl's an ornis but the latter doesn't seem interested in the chicks. Suntrike then hears Greenfeather screech in the distance and Quickbite states that their clan is being attacked by the ornis. As Quickbite proceeds to leave and fight the ornis, Sunstrike tries to stop her reminding her of their mother's orders to stay down but before the latter could do so, an ornis snatches Quickbite with it's jaws and kills her. Realizing that they've been ambushed Sunstrike and Firesight flee as two more ornis pursue them. The white Pterrosaur saves the two reaining chicks by scaring the ornis off. As Brightquill and Lightstep run to their remaining chicks, Greenfeather askes Lightstep what happened and Lightstep explains that the ornis had tricked them and blames Greenfeather by accusing the latter of ignorance.
