The Obelisk

-Chapter 89-

The sound of waves faded away as Moonbeam and the four carnivores head back to camp.

Forest was still shocked from the chaos that had just happened down at the beach, where a small kit had almost been swept away in the ocean. He couldn’t stop setting his gaze on Crimson, who had saved him. Neither could Rust— Forest could see him also watching Crimson, not even bothering to hide his expression of admiration. She had obviously noticed.

“Seriously, guys?” she asked without looking at them as she kept walking.

“Oh— sorry,” Forest said.

“Not sorry,” Rust said sharply, hastening his speed so he could catch up to her. “It was really cool what you did back there, saving that kit.”

“Anyone would have done it,” she muttered.

“but you did, cause your awesome.” He stated with a smile.

“Thankyou, but I think I’ve had enough gratitude today,” she said, turning to put her focus back to walking.

“Today probably won’t be the last of it,” Forest said. “You saw how happy his mother was. She won’t be forgetting you for a long time.”

“Let’s hope not too long, for my sake,” Crimson said.

Moonbeam came to a stop, and Forest nearly barreled into her. She had frozen. “Did you hear that?”

Forest paused to listen, but heard nothing.

“It was a roar,” Spark said.

Moonbeam whirled around. “It came from Cyan’s cave,” she hissed.

They ran as fast as they could around the cavern, and Moonbeam burst into the glittering den.

The others followed quickly behind her, and Forest spotted Cyan immediately. She was in the center of the cave, sitting up and clutching her ducked head with one paw. Moonbeam rushed up to her, asking, “What is it? Whats wrong?”

Cyan glanced up at her and others. “Nyx,” She began.

“What? What did you see?”

“‘What did she see?’” Rust echoed quietly, mostly to himself. “How many more crazy powers does this Shadowmane have??”

Cyan blinked, and finally she looked into Moonbeams eyes. “She’s in danger.”
