"Im home" Craang said, running to the place where Julia had said was the goblin home. "Come on horsies lets get you into the stables"

"He's glad to be back" Aspen said smiling "Julia it would be best to leave him we can go faster on our wolves"

"Ye you told me a million times i just feel bad leaving him we've become friends."

"Lets see what he wants then" we walked into the cave and put away the horses while goblins crowded us. I was the new comer so everyone was pretty scared of me but the others were considered heroes here.

"Hey guys" Craang said coming back

"We have to discuss something"

"No no, i think i have something to say"

"What?"

"I'm staying here. I have my life here and my debt is paid, you guys can come here anytime you have saved us for god sake and we'd be happy to accommodate you, but i'm slowing you down,i need here i need to get everything settled again." Craang said "thanks for being my friend and saving us but we have to go our separate ways" Aspen nodded.

"And that's what we all want, but thank you for helping us" I smiled at craang "Without you we would have taken so much longer to get Anala we need every second."

"You are welcome." Craang left to find his friends and family.

"Thank you for saving us and bringing Craang back safely." What I assumed was the leader said "you may rest up here or be on your way." He walked off and I looked at the underground city with glee.

"We do need rest. We've been traveling nonstop for days," I said as some people took the rest of the horses besides the small one.

"For one day we can rest here and do whatever we want because love it or not we need to have more of a life than just traveling all over the world" Rose said "i want to sneak into the bar what about you Julia?"

"Let's go," she said as they walked away.

"We can find some other kids at the playground" I smiled , putting Winston on my shoulders.

"Other kids?" he said, concerned "won't they be goblins too?" i looked at him and smiled

"Of course they will be," I said "but that doesn't mean we can't make friends with them." We got to the park and Aspen followed along. I put Winston on the ground as he ran to one of the slides. I saw other little boys there as well. I looked around and saw that most of the girls were human. Had they agreed to this life by choice or were they forced. I joined Aspen on the bench and watched as the little boys were curious about Winston.

"Do you think Julia will be responsible?"

"Rose and Julia will both be responsible for whatever they do not need to worry about," I smiled as he looked at the ground.

"I need to go check into one of the hotels here soon" he said looking at the playground as Winston was now in a game of tag with a few of the other boys.

"I need to watch Winston" I said looking at Aspen who hesitated.

"Alright see you soon" he walked off and I just continued watching Winston letting my motherly instincts take over.

Was that a trip? Did he hurt himself? Is that boy making fun of him? Do I need to go in and save him? Is he going to cry?

"Hey, you're one of the werewolves, am I right?" a girl around my mothers age said as she sat down on the bench and watched. I nodded and she continued "is that your kid?" She pointed to winston.
