I ask with a innocent smile. Oh I'm definitely killing his soul right now. His jaw drops, making everyone laugh.

Me: Better close your mouth before you catch flies... But in your case, snow.

I giggle before turning to everyone else.

Me: Shall we go?

Everyone nods and we head out.

A FEW HOURS LATER

I wonder how much longer it'll take. 

Philip: Dan for the last time, she doesn't like you.

Dan: But come on, there's so many great things about me.

We all sigh. How much longer till we find this thing? I don't want to miss Ed's phone call. I really hope he's found a way to maintain it. Although, the main question about this is did Ed tell Al? Or did Al already know about this?

Raven: Hey! I think I found something!

We all turn to her pointing to a scratched up tree... but more like half demolished.

Me: Well that's a start.

Dan: Huh?

Dan and Philip turn to us confused.

Teresa: If you guys weren't so distracted by your little bromance, you would actually know what's going on.

Philip: Not my fault this guy is a fool.

Dan pouts and looks away from us all.

Me: Dan don't be such a sorry butt.

I walk up to the tree Raven is studying.

Me: Not an ordinary animal could do this...  Perhaps it could be from a chimera?

Chris: Chimera? What the heck is that?

Me: Something that shouldn't exist. 

I trace my fingers on the scratch.

Raven: The scratch on the tree still looks fresh.

Me: Yeah. The green is still showing, meaning it wasn't long ago it was here. We should all split up to find it now. It couldn't have gone too far away. If I'm correct and it's a chimera, be very cautious and careful. You can't predict what they can do.

Chris: Okay you heard Clarissa. Split up. If you find it, just beep us all with your headsets.

We all nod.

Ally: We'll split in three groups. Group one will be Dan and Teresa. Group two will be Raven and Philip. And the last group will be me, Chris and Clarissa. You all agree?

I shrug.

Me: Sounds good.

Dan: But but..?

Teresa: Let's just get this over with.

She grabs onto Dan's shirt and pulls him away.

Dan: Philip! Save me!

Philip: You're on your own Dan. Have fun!

Dan: Nooooo!

I look over to see Raven and Ally snickering.

Me: Anyway let's head out.

Ally: Right!

We all split up and headed into the forest.

Me: I have a feeling it's gonna find us before we find it.
