Mountain and Sodo rushed through the woods, trying to hurry to find Swiss. Mountain pushed a branch out of the way, not paying attention to how close Sodo was behind him, the branch hitting the fire ghoul in the face.
"Mountain!" Sodo exclaimed. Mountain turned around and saw an angry Sodo standing there. Sodo walked over to him and said, "I know you're in a rush to get Swiss back, but that was the third fucking branch. I want him back too. If you can't stop panicking, I'll take the lead. I don't need you killing yourself because you're worried about Swiss."
"Sorry, man. I just-" Mountain said. Sodo cut him off saying, "I know. But if you're panicking, you could be killed before we find him. Calm down. We will find him."
Mountain took a deep breath before nodding. The two moved on, walking through the woods, soon hearing talking. The two separated, hiding behind trees as they listened.
"You think this will get that ghoul sent back?"
"It's what the book says. Pastor John seems to believe it'll work."
"That's if Damon doesn't kill him first."
Mountain let out a growl, not being able to hold back now. His eyes glowed green and he stepped out from behind the tree before Sodo could stop him, grabbing the two men's ankles with vines and making them hang upside down. Sodo groaned and slowly walked out, standing next to Mountain as the taller ghoul glared at the two men, "Where is he?"
"Who the fuck are you?" One of the men asked. Sodo said, "Dude, honestly, just answer the question. It would end a little better for you."
"Who the fuck are you?" The man exclaimed, now noticing Sodo. Sodo groaned saying, "I would rather not waste my energy on you two fucks right now. I'm sure Mountain will, but that's him. I'm trying to help. You'll still die, but if you cooperate, it'll be less painful. Your choice."
"Where is Swiss?" Mountain repeated in a low growl. The two men looked at each other in confusion, just for Mountain to exclaim, "The fucking ghoul you took a week and a half ago where is he?!"
"Basement!" One of the guys exclaimed quickly. The other smacked his arm, the first one saying, "If I'm gonna die, it's gonna be quick. I do not want to suffer."
"Dude, they're the other ghouls that they were trying to find," The second guy said. The first guy responded, "They could be Satan himself, I would've told him just as fast. I already said I don't wanna suffer."
"Shut up," Mountain said, putting a vine through the second guy's head, killing him instantly. He walked closer to the first one asking, "How far is your church?"
"Mile east from here. Don't take the path, you'll be shot on sight," the guy responded quickly. Mountain nodded before killing him the same way he killed the first one, looking at Sodo, "You believe him?"
"I mean, you killed him before we could even double-check. How would I know?" Sodo said, crossing his arms. Mountain just sighed and said, "Let's find out."
They both started walking in the direction they were told, Sodo this strike walking next to Mountain to avoid any more branches to the face. The two walked in silence, Mountain keeping his eyes straight while Sodo kept an eye on their surroundings. Sodo then said, "If we get into any trouble and only I notice it, the entirety of these woods are going up in flames, you know that, right?"
"I could care less right now," Mountain responded. They soon made it to the church, Sodo holding Mountain back as he said, "They might be expecting us."
"They still have Swiss, I can't have it be too late when I get in there, Sodo," Mountain said, "Imagine if it was Ember."
Sodo thought about his pregnant mate back home. He sighed, knowing he would be running in there at the first sight of the church if it were Ember. He said, "You're right. Let's go get Swiss back."
