Rosita was hurled into darkness. Darkness, darkness...She thought she was slipping into the brink of insanity.
"AHHHHH!" Rosita sprang up from her sleep.
"What is it now? You've been restless for the last two days," Kyna complained.
"I tell you, there's something in the air!" Rosita screamed. She took one of Kyna's feathers, which had flitted to the ground. She twirled it around thoughtfully.
"Something about this Elder Wenrin...doesn't seem right. In fact, judging from the mask and all, he's probably hiding something. And what makes those Daakshi listen to him without judgement?" Rosita asked.
"Well, asking me those questions won't help. I'm no Queen of Light or Sensei. I'm going back to sleep," Kyna buried her head in her pillow. "It is three in the morning after all."

Diya sighed. What could possibly be happening now? The gang wasn't moving forward. They were stuck inside a dirty, stupid prison.
Anna bounced around the room, now trying to climb onto a bed post. Emiri ran after her, trying to get her to calm down.
Yesterday, Channie had been taken away from this room. He looked back at us, with a solemn expression. Were those mutants going to take everyone else away?
"Haha. I know. You should've seen the mood that Captain Rachel was in yesterday. It was quite horrible. Oh yes. I meant to ask you what happened when Elder Wenrin contacted us yesterday. I was on patrol when the meeting started."
Diya put her ear by the door.
"He said something...uh...I think was he kidnapped that scientist...what was his name again? Chandelier? Channie? ChoChang? Yes, as soon as he tried to get into Cho-whatever's mind to see how the star key worked, his laboratory exploded."
Diya narrowed her eyes. Channie had been kidnapped, and that meant...Elder Wenrin wasn't as innocent as he seemed. He didn't want to help the gang.
"Is that why he put up a notice for everyone to pack up and change base?"
"Indeed. I have already finished organizing my quarter. Go, and deal with yours. I will stand guard here."
A thudding of clinky talons signified one of the guards left.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!
"What could that ever be, Johnny-kins?" Jessica clung into John. The ceiling was falling apart.
"ATTENTION. ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS HUMAN CAPTIVES. WE ARE CHANGING BASES, AND LEHTROCY WILL BE..BLOWN UP."
Jessica and John started performing a grand last mating ritual, before they died.
"Guys, stop, stop!" Mitchell, aka Captain Kirby stomped the floor. His foot got stuck in the cement ground. "Damn it!"
Mitchell started screaming like a girl, and Jessica and John continued their ritual.
BOOM!
A jet of purple light flashed from outside, and part of the wall collapsed.
"What the hell are you guys still doing here? Evacuate!" Diya screamed.
"POPSICLES!" Anna cackled.
Jessica carried John bridal-style out of the large crater in the wall (and John, who by the way was screaming at the top of his lungs)
"Look! The mutants are leaving over there!" Kyna quacked. She clamped into one of the mutant's wings. The gang huddled together, and they felt themselves being lifted off and thrown headfirst into space.

BOOM.
"Elder Wenrin."
The Daakshi bowed.
"Thank you. I have time travelled back into this time, while you have time travelled into your future. This is the place called 'Mr.Ho's room.'" Elder Wenrin stood majestically.
"I had no idea he'd be that tiny," Emily sweatdropped, jesturing to the three-foot dwarf, called Elder Wenrin.
"Now, as for this..." Elder Wenrin whirled a spinny chair around. Channie was strapped onto it. "Wait...I told you hybrids to leave those humans in Lehtrocy! What are they doing here?!"
"Elder Wenrin, they managed to escape, while hanging to us when we were leaving. Are you alright, Elder? You seem...to have a voice change...It seems to be sharper than...normal." Captain Rachel kneeled before Elder Wenrin.
"OMG, IT'S JUSTIN BIEBER! AND HIS HIGH VOICE!" Anna howled. "EW!"
"No, I know nothing of this 'Justin Bieber.' I am not him. I am Elder Wenrin," Elder Wenrin adjusted a switch on his mask, and his voice changed. "Captain Rachel, it was a slight glitch."
The mutants bowed.
"Well, since the humans are here...let us kill them," Elder Wenrin sneered. "We will start with the pyschotic one."
"Not so fast," a booming female voice came from above.
"What is this? You challenge me for authority here?" Elder Wenrin sneered.
"The Queen of Light pwns all. I will not have innocent humans killed." the Queen roared. A force field seperated the mutants and Elder Wenrin from the gang.
"Channie! What happened?" Maria wheezed.
"It's complicated--" Channie whispered, before the winds of the force field blocked out everyone's hearing.
"Channie, we missed you!" Wenhao mouthed.
Elder Wenrin growled. "He will not escape me! My questions have not been answered!" Elder Wenrin, with some invisible force, sucked Channie back into his part of the force field.
The force fields exploded in opposite directions, back into darkness.

Catherine glared at her surroundings.
"Where are we, Jessica-bun buns?" John asked.
The gang lay on the ground.
"Dude...that force field thing...was awesome," Nicole smeared some sand off of her mouth with her sleeve.
Some Italian music started to play.
Rosita coughed. "We lost those mutants, Elder Wenrin...and Channie."
"I can't see them anywhere," Diya surveyed the area with her super cyborg vision.
"Don't tell me..." Maria coughed. "Is that the Leaning Tower of Pisa...when it's standing...uh...less tilted?"

ROFL Justin Beiber. Well done, Rosita =D
Firstly - ah! Thank you! Clear paragraph distinction! New lines for new speakers and the like really helped to make this an easier read, along with the "X" that marked a 'scene change.'
I'm trying to come up with critiques, but I really enjoyed your post. You did an excellent job of switching POV, using different characters, and managing to keep the story going while still making sense. Grats!
(Btw, I'm Kristina, grade 12 :)
