“Where’s Oriana?!”

We took the dead bodies of the Goblins into the cave where Mikey then threw each of three chained wolves a dead body. The starving wolves gnawed fiercely at the their flesh, allowing us to creep past them while they were heavily distracted.

Inside the cave was dimly lit and extremely cold, water sounds could be heard in the distance as rain droplets drips almost everywhere we stepped. We made a turn and came across a twenty foot bridge hanging over head.

Xenneth took out a climbing rope "Don't worry guys! I got this!" and flew directly straight up.

"You fucking sugar glider!" I said just above a whisper. Xen smiled back down.

"What do you see?" I asked her

"I see rocks." She replied back done.

She tied off the end of the rope to a near by rock dropping the rest over the cliff. "Come with me if you want to live!" as I took hold of the end of the rope, pulling myself up, Mikey following shortly after.

"Took long enough." She complained rolling her eyes. I sat on the damp floor blowing my hair out of my face return a glare towards her. "Where's Oriana?!" Xenneth shouted. we all looked over the edge to where she had been and there was no sign of her.

"She'll catch up sooner or later." I stated as we crossed the bridge.

"Where are we going?" Xenneth said nervously.

"You're the one with the wings." Mikey said ignoring her side eye. I push past them both leading them into the unknown, the sound of rushing water getting closer as we moved forward.

Suddenly I hold up a hand and signal them to stop. "My Goblin senses are tingling." I take the hand I had held up and grabbed slowly for my bow drawing back an arrow.
