This is it. The real thing. We're all poised at the ready to run for our lives. Gwenny looks awesome in her clothes like Gardoir and Crystal. We all have our eyes on our weapons. But we can't move yet. We'd get blown to pieces if we did move. Mom and Shimmer will be looking at me all the time. The horn is about to go. 5...4...3...2...1
GO!
We're all running. People have died already. "Alaya!Behind you!"Gardoir calls to me. I turn to look behind me. A girl with dark blue hair is chasing me with a knife.
A knife.
"Gardoir! You OK?" I call.
"Yep!" Comes his reply. Why does it sound so close? I turn round and there he is in front of me, reaching out to me. I go closer. I notice he's got the crossbow and the bow and arrows." Are the bow and arrows for me?" I ask. He nods. I breathe a sigh of relief. "Where are the others?" I ask Gardoir." Their at a hiding place where only we know" he replies. He pulls me as he runs so I'm running too. I have never known my heart beat as fast as it did today. The sun is setting by the time we come to the mouth of a cave. I hear the sizzle of something cooking and there's a smell like fish or groosling emitting from the cave too. Gardoir pushes open the vines so we can get in. Sat around a fire are Crystal, Gade,Gwen and the jaguar creature. "Alaya. Meet Clos Catosmith"
I stop dead in my tracks. This is the creature who I catch staring at me. A creature with a last name that ends in my parents enemy. Cato.
"Hi." Clos says.
