Destiny By Blood #EAHAdventuresAway

Bonfire

    An afternoon came to play, everyone packed up and gathered their belongings at Wolf's and Hood's house. Soon they started to head out of the Dark Forest.

     They waved to Bad-Wolf who stayed behind since he had some work to get done and since some huntsman other than Hunter would mistake him for an actual wolf.

     " Be careful out there." Bad-Wolf told Cerise and Ramona as he hugged them tight. He looked up to face everyone. " And this goes to everyone." 

     Soon before night crawled in, everyone reached Huntsman's Woods due to Hunter leading the way. As they went deeper and deeper, they found a flaming bonfire burning brighter and bigger by each second as it got fed firewood.

   " What are they doing?" Theodora asked while Hunter who looked before the fire feeling hurt.

    Hunter ignored Dexter's question by telling everyone to stay back as he walked closer to the raucous and weeping crowd for a better glance. A while later Hunter went back looking much hurt than before.

    " What's going on?" Raven asked.

    " Someone died." Hunter looked up at the twinkling stars so no one could see his tears fill up.

    " Who?" Dexter asked as he rested his hand on Hunter's shoulder feeling rueful for his best friend.

    " I don't feel like talking about it." Hunter snapped his vision from the sky as he started to walk backward towards the bonfire. " There's a cabin not that far north, you guys can unpack there."

    " I'll see you guys soon." he added.

    While the group walked north, Hunter strolled towards the front of the bonfire crowd. Some people turned around and gasped at the sight of him walking through and moved aside for him.

     Hunter walked until he found his younger sister, Alexa, standing before the fire. He placed both hands on her two shoulders as she turned around to see him.

     " Hunter!" she exclaimed softly as she hugged him tight. " You made it!"

     " What happened?" he asked as she faced him in what seemed forever.

     " It's dad, he.....died." tears rolled down Alexa's wheat-tan skin. Hunter hugged her even tighter as tears started to roll down his.

    " It's gonna be alright. We'll find a way. Just like always." Hunter assured his little sister.

    Alexa looked up at him with her beading eyes as Hunter wiped the tears from her bottom eye-lids. He was worried what could happen to her next.

    After a while, everyone at the bonfire left to their homes back at the Huntsman community. Hunter and Alexa strolled all the way to the cabin.

    On the way, Hunter told Alexa about everything to about their guests to the Evil Queen's casting of the curse.

    " Thanks to her there's a plague struck between us, and by that I mean the community." Alexa told her older brother.

    " Wait..." Hunter paused as he started to tremble. " that plague?"

   " Yes, it returned." Alexa replied.

   " No." Hunter's body shook harder. "Not that...again."

   " We can't do anything about it." Alexa looked at her brother. " Father's dead because of it."
