The Obelisk

-Chapter 93-

“Nyx!” Forest exclaimed.

The young Shadowmane turned her head with surprise, and her face lit up. “Guys! You came! How did you—”

She stopped talking. There was a noise in the forest behind the others. Her eyes widened. “Guys—”

An awful hissing, cackling sound came from the rocks around them. Forest stepped back, only for his leg to almost slip into a cutoff of rock. He looked over his shoulder and saw the stone and grass fall away into a wide ravine, littered with caves. The sounds came again, louder than before.

“Nyx, come here.” Moonbeam said firmly. “Come here right now.”

Nyx’s tail fell between her legs. Carefully, she took a step towards them. but before she could take another, something snarled and leapt towards her.

“Nyx!” Moonbeam roared, leaping as well. There was a clash of scales as Shadowmane and creature collided. Rocks scraped and just seconds later, Moonbeam fell down into the ravine.
