(Part Two, Alex)

The sweet sound of the birds singing and the crisp autumn air comforted me as I walked through the forest, yelling Nova’s name. I had escaped the creatures… but she hadn’t.

“Nova! Nova!” I called, my hands cuffed over my mouth. ‘I know what I need…’ I told myself. I flicked my ears and swayed my tail as I turned into full wolf, no human. “Much better….” I smiled and kept padding through the forest.

I saw smoke rising into the sky and decided to follow it. The smoke was choking thick as I ventured deeper into the forest and I could hear strange sounds.

Suddenly, a fiery cat jumped from the bushes and hissed furiously. A water dog and a wind fox followed it.

“Who dares travel into element territory??” The fiery cat hissed, his flames licking the air. The water dog and the wind fox take a fighting stance as the fiery cat looks me over.

I gulped and tensed, “I-I am Alex, second in command of the Wofurs.” The water dog smiled and brushed up against the fiery cat, “Flame, I believe he is harmless.”

Flame sighed, “fine, but what do you need?” The wind fox chuckled, “don’t mind him, he’s grumpy.” I nodded, “I need your help finding my sister. Our camp was attacked and I fear for her safety.”

The elements exchanged glances. “What exactly were the creatures that attacked your camp?” The water dog questioned. I thought for a moment, “they looked like normal animals but with glowing auras around them.”

The wind fox gasped and Flame looked concerned, “Alex, I believe your sister is in grave danger.”
