For a few days, Cupquake and Mandy walked around the forest looking for shelter farther away from the lab, thinking the guards would come back to search in the light. They have been traveling for a few days with little food and water. On the fifth day of traveling Mandy sniffed and barked. Quake looked at him curiously. "What is it Mandy? You smell something?" She said sniffing the air. "Yea it smells like a... Barbecue! Let's go Mandy there might be a village!" She said running with Mandy along the forest floor. After a few hours, they came across a grassy clearing. While they were running it rained but now there was a clear blue sky. They walked up a hill and saw a small village and in the center a fire pit. "That must've been where the barbecue smell came from. Cmon Mandy maybe they'll let us stay there for a while." Apparently there was more trees when they came down the hill. It was massive forest village. Tree houses and mushroom houses everywhere. It was like an enchanted oasis! There were many butterflies and the people there had little elf ears, horns and some had butterfly wings. "Woah this is awesome!" She said running to a small cafe. There was a girl around her age at the counter. Cupquake breathe in and went up to her. "Hey my name is uh Cup- Tiffany.... um Im new here so is there a place I can stay for a while, I have no where to go." She said a little nervous. The girl gasped.
"Oh hi! Welcome to Enchanted Coffee! My name is Jacqueline! I'm half elf half deer! That why I got the ears and horns! You can stay at my place, I got an extra room!" She with excitement. This girl had dark reddish brownish hair up in a pony tail tied with a red ribbon. She was tan and wearing a pastel blue dress made of some sort of leaves and a flowercrown. She had this pretty looking branch bracelet with a blue gem. "After a while of staying here you grow the elf ears. Oh lemme get you some coffee. It'll be on the house and our famous nectar one. It's my recipe! I'll let you borrow some of the clothes I don't really like any more, well until we can get you some! But wow what happened! You look like a bear attacked you." She said with concern but still smiling. Cupquakes shirt was ripped at the sleeves, and also one sleeve covered in dirt. Her pants were all dirty from mud. She smiled and looked down.
"Um well long story short I was hiding from some people and looking for a place to stay before they find me me." She said looking back up.
"Oh wow that's deep." Jacqueline looked down at Mandy. "Oh what a cute lil dog! What's his name?" She said petting Mandy.
"Uh his name is Mandy." Cupquake said smiling. Mandy barked happily. Jacqueline looked out the window and gasped.
"Oh it's getting dark cmon lets go." She said pulling Quakes hand. "Oh btw you can call me Jax or Jackie."
Jackies house was a bit big. It was a giant tree. Inside the first floor was a kitchen with painting if butterflies. Then there was a giant wooden stair case. They walked up. Then on the second floor outside was a giant butterfly garden covered with glass. Butterflies flew around happily. Then right next to it was a farm. Then another stair case led to upstairs. There were magic things. Books with spells, a giant chalk circle, that kind of stuff.
"Oh I'm also sorta a witch. But it's kinda a hobbit all of us here in the Enchanted Oasis have. One of ways to protect ourself. We are really strong. Hey I can teach you some magic!" Jax said all bubbly and happy. Quake nodded. "Here let's head back down I'll show you were you'll stay. " she said while they headed down. Quakes room had a wooden bead but the mattress was super soft. There were some spell books and paintings of animals. Suddenly someone knocked on the entrance door. Jackie went to get it, then Quake headed down. There was a girl somewhere in her 20s or 30s. The lady looked at Quake.
"Jacqueline who is this girl?" She said with concern and cold eyes.
"Uh hi my name is Tiffany and Uh I come in peace." She said half smiling.
