"If it's one wolf, we'll be ok, but with Jason out and a whole pack of werewolves we're in trouble. We need to find refuge. Up high," Kanansu says. Her ears flicker slightly at every sound.
"My tribe occasionally travels to these areas and wolves are common but extremely dangerous and unpredictable. I believe we may find an elven shelter in one of those trees," she explained.

"We need to quicken our pace if we want to survive!" Says Ruairi tensely. Kanansu scans the canopy.
"Okay, up that tree!" she says while gesturing toward a kilometre tall tree. Kanansu, Ruairi and I start climbing the tree. Once we're half way up the tree Kanansu asks us,
"Have we got everyone?"
"Kanansu, Ruairi, me, Ja-Oh My ***!" I say noticing that Jason is still at the bottom of the tree unconscious.
"I'll get him, you guys keep climbing no matter what! Kanansu, I'll need to borrow your crimson dream stone!" I say. She quickly hands me a dream stone and I don't even bother to check what colour it is, I just start climbing down.

Once I'm at the bottom, I can sense something prowling toward me and Jason. I look at the dream stone. It's not crimson! It's blue! I slap the palm of my hand against my face remembering she's blind. Out of the foliage comes a white wolf with shimmering blue eyes. It slowly prowls toward us as if stalking its prey.
"Come on dream stone! Don't fail me now!" I say while smashing the stone on the ground. From the blue mist, an eastern dragon emerges. I quickly lift Jason onto the dragon and it flies to the top of the tree leaving me behind.

"You forgot me!" I say. Now the wolf is less than a meter away. I gulp. What the hell do I do now?! Is this how I die? Suddenly an orange rock falls from above. On impact purple mist fogs up my vision and emerging from it is another wolf! The orange wolf is fierce and practically and equal match for the white wolf. They tackle each other. While the white wolf is distracted, I climb up the tree as fast as I can.

I sigh in relief knowing we all survived. It's a nice shelter made of oak wood. It seems to have sacred inscriptions engraved all over it. My attention turns back to Jason. He is now in agony. He is dying!
"Is there anything you can do for him?" I ask. Kanansu gives me a sad pitiful look. I know that there is nothing she can do.

Soon morning dawns upon us. The sun rises lighting up our elven shelter. I hear someone or something climbing up the tree. CREAK! CREAK! CREAK! A girl climbs into our elven shelter.
"Sorry about last night" she says. She is wearing high ankle boots, jeans, a red barre, a red jumper, she has beige skin, brown eyes and brown hair but when she goes into the sunlight, her eyes turn blue and her hair turns silver.
"I am Amelia Hawes, you may know me as The Dragon whisperer, no? How about Book worm? Mimi?" She says before I interrupt.
"What are you?" I ask.
"Please don't freak out when I say this but I'm a hybrid between a werewolf and a fairy" she replies.

"Wait! Are you the werewolf who attacked us last night?!" I exclaim.
"Forgive me, I cannot control myself when it is a full moon" suddenly we all hear a massive groan from the back of the shelter. It's Jason! He's minutes away from death!
"What happened to him?!" Amelia asks urgently.
"He was stung by a giant wasp!" Ruairi yells.
"We have to move him to my lab! Fast!" Yells Amelia.
"But it's at least an hour away on foot!" She continues. I smile to myself,
"I think I have an idea" I say.

"Waaaaaaaahhooooooooo!!!" I scream with excitement as all of us fly the blue dragon to her lab.
"Down there!" She yells gesturing for us to go down. After landing, Amelia rushes Jason to her lab. He is almost seconds away from death! She rushes through her shelves looking at labels on bottles until she finds the one that she's looking for.
"This is the wasp venom antidote!" She says while pulling out a mortar and pestle, she crushes the antidote while mixing it with other herbs and water.
"Open his mouth!" she ordered. I open his mouth while Amelia poured the fluid into his mouth. Once it was all down his threat she immediately cleaned the mortar and pestle and started to make something else.

"Wait! Isn't that it?!" I ask.
"No! That was just to neutralise the poison, his wound needs to be closed! Fast!" She yells. In the mortar she mixed together gravel, clay, water and herbs to make a gooey grey texture.
"Where was he stung?" She asks.
"The back!" Ruairi yells.
"Turn him over!" She commands. I can see a big bloody wound in his back. I can't look. Amelia rubs the substance all over the wound. We wait a few minutes, then Amelia lights a match and burns the substance off. The wound is completely gone!
"He'll be alright," she says.

Kanansu, Ruairi and I sigh in relief.
"What are you folks doing in this forest?" Asks Amelia.
"I live here" says Kanansu.
"I'm just following Louis" says Ruairi.
"I'm on a quest to find my Grandfather" I say.
"And who's that guy?" Asks Amelia gesturing to Jason.
"That is Jason; our guide" I say.

"I see, so who is your Grandfather?" Asks Amelia.
"You have to promise not to freak out!" I say.
"I promise" she says.
"My Grandfather is Cassyon Underfoot" I say.
"Seriously?!" She exclaims. I nod.
"Can I come?" She asks.
"Sure! The more, the merrier!" I say.
"So now what?" Ruairi asks.
"Your friend needs rest! We'll leave as soon as he wakes up." Says Amelia.

"What should we do to help pass the time?" Ruairi asks.
