Takashie's POV
We've been walking for what seemed like hours. I was tired and scared. We're was she....was she really dead. If she was then why are the foxes helping us?

By the truck there was a hole. The main fox that came down into the cellar circled around us again and jumped into the hole.

"Does it want us to...go...in..?"

"I think so Takshie..." said my father from behind me. No time like the present, I guess. I shoved myself through. It was a lot bigger then expected. I pulled my phone out and turned on the flashlight. It was like a room dig out by hand. There was multiple roots coming down making it difficult to navigate through the hole. Then suddenly I remembered something Silver said in the past. She said something about....living in a tree...? Is this her tree? I called to my parents and bother to hurry down.

If we were hiding it meant that we were hiding from something so we should hide fast. I saw something black in the corner of the underground living space. It was a flashlight. I picked it up and turned it on, pointing it to the sky so it lit the entire room. I looked around more seeing old cans and even a vintage camping water boiler set. She really did live down here.

But something I would have never thought off caught my eye. In the corner I saw chalk sketches on a rocky wall. She moved rocks down here and drew on them? There pictures of foxes mostly. They were beautiful I didn't know that Silver could draw. I stepped on an engraved part of the trees roots. There were song lyrics and notes. I didn't know she was that good!

Then the fox sat in front of my family waiting for us to pay attention to it.

"I am Wihu. I have transferred my consciousness into one of Silver's friends to help you."

My mom and dad watched wide eyed and shocked. Honestly I didn't expect anything less from wihu.

"Takashie, there are many things about Shinata that you do not know. I will tell you want you want to know, but let me explain 1 thing first."

"O-ok..?"

"We have reason to believe that Shinata is alive-"

"REALLY?!?"

"Hush boy. The wolfs will hear you."

"S-sorry"

"Now to start at the beginning, the first answer is yes Shinata is very talented in drawing, singing and piano. Although, she was never allowed to pursue any so she hasn't touched a piano since her grandmother died. Next question"

"Is she injured...?"

"How do you mean? Mentally, physically emotionally?"

"Ummm....all...?"

"Well to be quite honest, I don't really know. She was in horrible physical pain before I left. And she was more worried about making sure you got out safe over anything. She let the wolf-Boy attack her so that she could call the foxes to go save you and bring you here."
