Hullo, Hullo! Kurosu is back here with another chapter!!! Wow, I have nothing to say so let's get straight into it. Without further ado, I present to you...

Chapter 12 - Dlorah!!!

Yuki's P.O.V

I soon grow tired and drift away into the land of sleep, once making sure that Hirono had also safely rested.

"Yuki wake up! Please! It's going to notice us." Hirono silently whisper yells as she shakes me awake.

"Oh... Uh.. Good morning?" I yawn. "What's u-" She covers my mouth with her hand and sits me up. She points towards a few bushes not too far away.

There, was a hunched figure which seemed to have something, or someone, within its grasp. Effortlessly, the creature eats away at the unfortunate victim.

We attempt to leave the area unnoticed, but the damned twigs did not wish for us to escape.

Crack!

The figure's head shifts in our direction and we dare not move a step.

Without wasting any time, the figure slips away into the darkness with the lifeless body in hand. I don't even want to guess what that was...

We leave our hiding spot. I was still feeling a little bit on edge for the fact that I just woke up.

"Where's Harold?" I yawn again.

The bushes behind us begin to rustle, revealing the limp figure covered in leaves. 

"Oho! I definitely slept well." The old man yawns. "Why so pale, young youths?" The old man coughs into his yawn. 

"We just-" I was cut off by Hirono placing a hand on my arm. 

"I just woke him up all of a sudden." She lies.

"Ah, I see." He chuckles. "Should we continue?" He asks. We all nod, gather our belongings and continue going 'South-West'.

Over time, the scenery begins to redden. Though we are also heading towards the tower, which is in the same direction (hopefully), this area seems completely new to me.
