"Liam, would you quit always going ahead of the group and stay with us!" Savannah shouted.

Liam shook his head pointedly.

Chris talked in hushed whispers behind them. Oscar walked as far away from everyone as possible.

Savannah glanced at both of them before groaning. "You two are so unhelpful!"

Chris looked up from the ground at her and narrowed his eyes. "Could say the same for you, princess."

Savannah stopped in her tracks and slowly turned around. "I'm sorry, but did you just say, *Princess*?"

Chris sneered. "What do you think I said?"

Savannah leaps at him and pulls her sword out. He, too, pulls his out and blocks her from digging hers into his skull.

Oscar watched from the side of the trail. Once two people in the group started fighting, there was no stopping them.

Chris's wolf leaped and dug its teeth into Savannah's leg. She screamed and used her other foot to kick it away.

"Hey! My wolf was just defending me!" Chris cried. Be dropped to the ground with his sword beside him.

Savannah took the moment and cut Chris's shoulder. Blood splattered and dripped down his arm.

"Ha." Savannah put her sword back in its sheath and walked away.

Chris stayed leaning over his wolf. Oscar went over to him and stood there.

"What are you doing? Just go with the others." Chris motioned him away.

Oscar didn't move.

"I said just go, will you?" Chris motioned again. "You're kinda freakin me out."

"Nobody deserves to be left behind." Oscar said simply.
