GOODBYE

There were a lot of maggots at the bottom of the hole while the smell from it was very strong. It made Zuri want to puke. She was a shifter after all, her sense of scent was very keen.

It was just like what Chaos had said, it was too late, the tree had been infected.

Zuri took a few steps back, as she covered her nose with her hand, since the smell was too upsetting, while Chaos rested his arm on her waist. He didn't look affected by the smell, he didn't even flinch. His expression was devoid of any emotions.

"Is there something that we can do to help the tree?" Zuri asked, her brows furrowed deeply. She didn't really like the tree, but seeing it in pain from being tortured by Aaron made her blood boil.

"No," Chaos replied softly. He then walked closer, despite the burning smell and pressed his palm against its bark, as he closed his eyes.
