The kids trudged through the dark forest, in search for dart and his friends. They had been looking for the creatures for an hour or two, and there was nothing that they could find. The whole time Hazel had been by Max's side. Since her vision wouldn't clear up. The blood had stopped flowing mostly, but she had already lost enough to keep her vision blurry for a long while. And she hoped to god, that it would clear up soon.
"You're positive that was Dart?" Lucas questioned Dustin as they walked down train tracks in the middle of the forest.
"Yes. He had the same yellow mark on his butt!" Dustin told the boy.
"Why were you looking at his butt?" Hazel asked her friend, who rolled his eyes in response.
"Wasn't he tiny like, two days ago?" Max asked the boy, who had for some reason been very rude to her that day.
"Yeah but he molted like three times already." He explained.
"Malted?" Steve furrowed his brows.
"No, molted. You idiot." Hazel mumbled the last part.
"Yeah, he has to make room for growth, like hornworms. And soon he's gonna be full size, as well as his friends." Dustin explained to the older Harrington.
"Yeah, then he'll be eating a lot more than cats." Steve commented, making Hazel and Lucas stop in their tracks, while Dustin's eyes widened.
"Cats?" Lucas questioned.
"What do you mean, 'cats'?" The younger Harrington asked her brother.
"Dart, he ate a cat." Steve told her making her eyes widen.
"Dart ate a cat!?" She exclaimed, looking over at Dustin who was glaring at Steve, as if trying to tell him to shut up.
"What? No! No he didn't!" Dustin denied.
"What are you talking about? He ate Mews." Steve said, as if was the most normal thing ever.
"Who's Mews?" Max asked, confused on what the hell was going on.
