The Obelisk

“She’s heading to the Drake Caves,” Cyan breathed. “Something terrible is going to happen, she—” she covered her head. “I’m not sure.”

“I’ll find her,” Moonbeam said. She whirled towards the entrance of the cave.

“Be careful!” Cyan called after them.

“What about us?” Forest asked Moonbeam, running up to her side.

“You’ll stay here.”

“Oh, no we won’t.” Crimson said. Moonbeam turned to her, and the Kaprosuchus glared right back.

“Nyx is our friend.” Forest said to her.

Moonbeam made a slightly thoughtful, slightly worried expression. Finally she looked back at Crimson, her eyes surprisingly full of respect. She gave a curt nod. “Alright.”

“Wait!” a voice came from Forests left as they exited the cave. The group turned as one. It was Orbit, panting as he came up to them. “I’m coming with you.”

“Orbit,” Moonbeam said softly. She stepped forward to look into his eyes. “You don’t have to come. It could be dangerous, and you have to—”

“Nyx is in danger.” He said, interrupting her. “Blazeheart is returning soon, and I am not letting him come home just to find out his daughter isn’t here. I will not return until she’s safe with us.”

Moonbeam managed a small, respectful smile. She leaned forward and softly butt the top of Orbits head with her own. “Come on, then. Let’s go save her.”
