Timber Forest

I was walking with Toby and Masky in the field when we saw this forest that had signs says "go back, turn around, your death lies ahead." We didn't care because we were used to this type of thing back in the human world. So we just went with it and went into the forest. When we were inside we kept on hearing rustling with the leaves and howls like wolves were around. We just expected Snow was messing with us, because she likes scaring us. But then she came up and jumped on my back. I was scared because next she said "Are you guys crazy?!?! Why didn't you all pay attention to the signs?" Then Masky said "We didn't care because back at home these type of signs don't mean anything." "So what if they don't mean anything there they mean something here. This is Timber Woods." Then Toby broke in. " Who cares!!! What is that?!?!?" He pointed behind Snow. She turned around slowly and there it was a timber wolf. Snow said quietly "A timber wolf" she started to back up slowly and then went behind us like she was scared of the wolf. That surprised me because why would a wolf and a very powerful demon like her be scared of a wolf that is made out of wood. She then said "Run" and that's what we all did we ran as fast as we could out of the woods known as Timber Woods. All you could hear was the noise of their feet hitting the ground and the leaves crunching under them, crunch crunch crunch. We finally got to the end of the forest and as we were about to leave another timber wolf jumped out in front of us. Then the timber wolf caught on fire but it was blue then out of nowhere Willow jumped out and said "You mess with my friends and you burn you stupid timber wolves." Snow just sighed in relief and we all ran out of the forest. As we walked back to the castle it started to rain. Willow put a barrier up so we wouldn't get to wet. Snow ended up jumping onto me from thunder. I secretly blushed under my mask. We got back to the castle and Masky, Toby, and I realized that snow got bit on the arm by one of those timberwolves. I realize that if Willow wasn't there we would have died. Then Ej and Snow came out of Ej's clinic room and snow had bandages on her arm, when she saw me standing there waiting she immediately ran to me and hugged me and whispered in my ear "please don't ever go there again and please don't ever scare me like that again and keep a tracker on you for once oh and pay attention to signs in the demon realm more often because they're important here." Then I said  "Okay just for you Snow."
