No Escape | Horizon

No Escape Book Two - Chapter Ten

Meanwhile in the pack...

     Blade watched Ember suspiciously. They had been sent to search for Endereye, who had disappeared a week ago. Luna said he'd be back soon but Blade wasn't so sure about that. She insisted on coming.
    The small group, Snowstorm, Luna, Ember, and Blade of course, had been walking for hours until Snowstorm, who was up ahead, jumped back and screeched. The rest of the group ran to her and saw her staring at one of Endereye's claws. Blade couldn't figure out if it was from his paws or wing, flesh was connected to it as if it had been yanked out. "Let's take it back to Fox." Blade said. They headed back towards camp, and Blade's stomach burned with anxiety. It must be Endereye's claw...but why had he left in the first place?
   He glanced at Ember, who looked smug. Ember and Endereye hate each other. Blade's claws extended to their maximum and he slashed Ember's side, and he felt to ground with a thud. Blade pinned him down. "You! You made him leave!"
   Ember hissed and pushed Blade off, jumping back to two legs. "What are you talking about?!"
   "You rip open his throat then drive him away!" As Blade prepared to lunge again Snowstorm and Luna charged at him and knocked him off his feet.
  "Stop! Both of you! Endermen in Fox's pack NEVER fight!" Luna screeched.
   Blade growled but retreated back. Luna took the lead and they continued their journey back to camp.
