A devil dog…
Wait! Could I be bitten by a damned devil dog?
Luckily, Oni increased our pace.
"Oni," I whispered while practically jogging behind her. "There's a devil dog over there."
The Wraiths. They cannot hurt you as long as you stay on the path.
Did we talk about this? I don't remember us talking about this.
No worries. Just follow me.
"Yes." No worries. Nope none.
I wasn't letting go of Oni. I wished I could have ridden on her back.
We hurried along the questionable path for several long minutes. I stopped looking behind me because shadowy figures were trailing us.
Oni said that nothing could touch me as long as I stayed on the path, but the shadowy figures were only a few steps behind us. What if one of them jumped up at me, scared me, and tried to get me to run?
