天天躁夜夜躁狠狠夜夜

"What\'s being in love got to do with this whole situation? Why would he kill someone just because he fell in love?"

An uncomfortable silence filled the atmosphere and their surroundings, rough tree barking could be heard in the middle of the forest.

Lucas inhaled the minty smell and continued to speak, enjoying the sound of his feet sliding through the leaves.

"This can\'t be true, can it?" He didn\'t want to believe Haya\'s words.

In his world, many people loved and fought, they married and then divorced, they divided everything in half, or sometimes the women took everything from them, but that was still not the highest case of murder.

The heat was piling up in Lucas\' head, with every word from Haya he began to question more and more what Izek was doing in this place and his purpose, \'why am I the one with him in it then?\' This question quickly ran through his mind.

Without getting an answer and since Haya didn\'t want to respond to his last remarks, Lucas decided to change the subject.

He sighed and averted his gaze.

The long and tall trees awakened horror movie vibes in him, he didn\'t really want to move and was freezing on the spot, but that was no longer the case, if he wanted to get out of there and fulfill his promise to his sister, he\'d to win this game.

The team in front of him wasn\'t the best he could trust, and he wasn\'t the most trustworthy person in his own world either.

People used and abused his words against him all the time, at school and at work, that was a lot for him to take in as a teenager, but he learned from it.

"Okay, let\'s not talk about him anymore, I\'m sorry for asking such stupid questions, we should be on our way now." He stretched his neck and wandered his eyes, looking for Kali.

"You\'re right, we shouldn\'t waste any more time." Haya agreed with Lucas\' words as he turned to his side and looked at Xina.

"Could you cast a protection spell, that would help us move faster?", Haya asked her as he stepped forward. "Kali is too big and she won\'t be able to fly in this forest, we need that spell," Haya added.

"Yes, but we\'ve to wait until she comes back." Xina pushed and pulled her shoulders back and forth to release the pinched nerve from her back.

"Where\'s Kali?" Lucas kindly interrupted their conversation.

"She\'s on a watch, looking for the Black Dragon," Haya replied.

\'The Black Drago...\' Lucas paused, "oh, was it the one chasing us earlier?"

"Yes, the same one, she\'s looking for him here."

"I see..."

Another uneasy atmosphere surrounded them.

It was hard for Lucas to communicate with people he barely knew, but he had no choice at the moment, they were on his team

"Haya, do you mind if I look for Kali?" He asked aloud.

Kali couldn\'t speak like a human anymore, but at least she was the one Lucas felt comfortable around. He didn\'t need words from her to understand what she meant or to do anything about it.

She\'d only recently lost her voice, but he felt he could still connect with her because he\'d known her before he even came here.

He didn\'t know much, but he\'d observed enough to know he could trust her, and Kali was a kind and smart person from the start, he knew she wouldn\'t judge him.

"I will go now," said Lucas.

"Wait, do not go alone, take Peri with you," Haya replied.

"Peri? Who\'s Peri?" Lucas blinked, "Oh, that cute but dangerous monster?" He asked. "How do I find one?" An unpleasant memory ran through his mind and he shook his shoulders at the cold breeze on his skin.

"I caught it last time, it will obey." The corners of his eyes crinkled, "Peri." Haya whispered.

A small, cute, green fox spirit appeared in front of Lucas again, with a big, fluffy tail that reminded Lucas of a cat he had at home when he was young.

He looked at the spirit more closely *pur* *pur* it spoke some nonsense again, "you are not going to bite me again are you?\' Lucas asked Peri.

A small pink diamond on his furry forehead shone very brightly, drawing Lucas\' attention only to that stone in front of him.

"Avoid staring at the diamond, it will erase your memory if you stare at it too long." Xina finally spoke up.

"Oh, okay... How can I control him?" Lucas asked his teammates as he observed its green fur.

"It\'s already under your command since it bit you and made you its servant," Haya smirked.

"It made me its servant?" Lucas\' eyes immediately flashed, not understanding exactly what he meant.

"Let us just say it\'s on your side. It will help you find your way back here, it\'s like a personal map, this creature\'s memory is incredible, now go find Kali, we need to keep moving." Haya yawned and stretched his neck.

"Okay, let us go, Peri." Lucas smiled gently, trying to appear as friendly as possible in front of this creature.

They headed south because Haya had told them to. He said Kali was heading that way and since she was big enough to be noticed, it would not be too hard for him to find her.

Lucas felt a tickle from a hanging moss, and small strands of cobwebs came onto his skin, he looked closer and saw that the spiders here were red, \'interesting\' Lucas thought, and carefully removed them with his fingers and stepped forward.

Strange - like bees sounding - noises buzzed in and out, making it more exciting to walk alone.

He looked down to see if Peri was all right and saw him running like a happy dog. His tail was up and his head tilted to one side, the big golden eyes were as bright as the day in summer, \'well, at least he looks happy\' As he said that, he heard a noise, it felt like a bomb.

*Boom* *boom* *boom*

Someone fell to the ground, it sounded like a huge creature, a jolt of energy began to pump through Lucas\' body as he realised what could have caused that noise, the only large and massive creature here was,

"Kali!"
