CHAPTER 12

　　Onyx

　　The woods appeared more dark and dangerous than in a day light. I was regretting following Fiarra who led me here. Maybe the Police have found something yet.

　　“Let’s go back! It’s a waste of time, roaming here inside the dark woods.” I called Ben.

　　“Are you afraid of the woods?” he asked subconsciously.

　　“No!” I lied, “but I think we are wasting our time. Why did you ask?”

　　Ben turned to me, "I mean, this place is terrifying but if someone gets lost or kidnapped or murdered, one will try to find them here. I guess we should investigate this place. There is a possibility we can get some clues.”

　　“And how can you be so sure?” I eyed at him.

　　“I watch thrillers!” He started and I watched him leading the way with my mouth hung open.
