" Okay, Puck. where do we find Ethan? "

,, No! ,, She smacks him a third time.

He seemed about to say something else, but then a branch snapped somewhere in the tangled darkness. He straightened quickly. "Whoops, time to go. It's dangerous to linger in any one place. We'll attract unwanted attention." He strode across the clearing, moving as gracefully as a deer, keeping his distance from Isiea.

She lets out a quiet sigh, before following Robbie. Robin. Same thing.

"Right now, we are in neutral territory, home of the wild fey. Here, as you humans put it, all bets are off. The things coming at us now could be a herd of satyrs who will make you dance until you're exhausted, then****** you one by one, or it could be a pack of hedge wolves that will tear us all apart. Either way, I don't think you want to hang around."

She gets visibly nervous and tense. " O-okay..."

,, How much of this are you making up? ,, Isiea huffs.

"None of it," he replied, dead serious. The rustling grew louder, and twigs snapped as whatever was out there drew closer. He was suddenly between the two, grabbing their wrists. "The aforementioned nasties have picked up our scent and are coming for us." Though his voice was casual, it was very much possible to see the strain in his eyes. "If you don't want your first day in the Nevernever to be your last, I suggest we move."

" Okay. Lets go, then. Lead the way. "

,, I have a knife. ,, She points out, taking it back out.
