The three stood still as if they were stone. “What was that!?” Nightfall said quietly.
“I SAID, WHO DARES TO DISTRIBUTE MY SLUMBER!!!!!!!” The voice said and suddenly the rock that Nightfall was standing on cracked open and started to rise. Nightfall screeched and flailed off the top and crashed to the bottom. Just in time to see a Rock Elemental rise to his feet.
“SO YOU THREE ARE THE ONES WHO DISTRIBUTED MY SLUMBER!! FOR THAT. YOU SHALL PAY!!” The monster said as he grabbed a piece of the earth and lifted it over his head.
The three started to run, and as they did the monster threw the rock. And hit the ground in front of them, making them stop in their tracks. Forest looked and screamed as he saw the thing move towards them and gaining on them as they stood there.
“I’ll distract him, you two run towards the obelisk. I’ll catch up!!” Forest said to Crimson and Nightfall, they nodded their heads.
Forest went in one direction and got the attention of the Golem. He looked back and saw Crimson and Nightfall running down and towards the Obelisk, Forest jumped and started to glide and cloaked after a few seconds.
“WHERE HAVE YOU GONE, FEATHERED LIZARD!!!!!!!” Forest heard the Golem yell as he flew away, and he went towards the Obelisk.

Forest glided for some time, he kept looking back to make sure he wasn’t being chased. When he wasn’t looking back, he was looking around for Crimson and Nightfall. He was gliding extremely slowly, so that he could search the ground for them. He wasn’t sure how far they might’ve gone before stopping to wait for him or if they would continue all the way to the Green Obelisk.
He thought they might still be moving, since it was getting darker every minute that passed by. As he searched, he wondered why he was sent to the Island and why Crimson was sent here? And he wondered if the rest of the Five in the same position, as to being sent to different places?
He continued glide for a while longer before catching a glimpse of a kapro tail underneath a gap in a cliff. He quickly landed near them and saw that it was Crimson and Nightfall. They were laying on the ground, heaving as they rested.
“Thank goodness I found you guys!! Why aren’t you guys moving?” Forest asked while he walked up. Crimson glared at Forest.
“We’re tired, and I can’t feel my legs.” Nightfall said, “I think we should probably stop here for the night. So we can rest up for the next day.” Crimson said, as Nightfall began to ease backwards on to Crimson’s back.
Forest was about to argue that they should continue going, but he started to feel like he was going to drop to the ground.
“You know, I would try to convince you that we should. But I’m so tired and I can’t argue right now. Can you make some space for me in there please?” Forest said.
“Sure, here.” Crimson said as she shoved Nightfall off her and out of the gap.
“So Insomniac feather duster, you can take the first watch than I’ll take the next watch.” Crimson said to Nightfall.
Nightfall glared at her and huffed, “Well that isn’t necessary, Troodons aren’t insomniacs. We just need less sleep than most animals do.” Nightfall said.
“I’m not a feather duster, where do these creatures get these stupid phrases?!” Nightfall mumbled as he went off to find a location to watch from.
Forest laughed as he heard him continue to complain as he walked off. “You probably shouldn’t have called him that.” Forest said.
“Yeah, probably. But he was getting on my nerves.” Crimson said.
Forest laid down and curled up in nice comfortable ball. “Good night Crimson. See you at dawn.” Forest said,
“Hopefully.” Crimson said with a dark tone.
