The green torches illuminated the area with an eerie green glow. All of the Yogs currently sat around a small campfire, everyone besides Xephos who was pacing.

"Lewis you need to relax." Honeydew said from his reclined position on the ground.

"Relax? Martyn is still out there! He has a kingdom for crying out loud!" Xephos exclaimed making wild hand gestures. "We need to know his weaknesses." Xephos slammed his fist into his other hand.

"I could help you with that." A voice spoke, making both heroes jump. All eyes were set on Toby, who sat next to the fire.

"You could?" Lalna asked.

"Of course. I've known Martyn since I was twelve." He replied staring into the flame, is face void of emotion.

"Well, spit it out!" Sjin said.

"Fire." Toby breathed out. A slight smirk was undetected by the other Yogs.

"Fire? We're going to beat Martyn using fire. That's crazy!" Sips exclaimed.

"No, we burn down the forest." Toby responded, his eyes narrowing.

"We can't burn down the forest!.... Can we?" Panda said.

"How would that even help?" Xephos asked.

"Martyn is a forest elf, he was a connection to the forest around him. specifically the plants within a 100 block radius of him."

"We are not going to kill him!" Zoey objected.

"It wouldn't kill him. Simply weaken him." Toby replied. The others seemed to nod at Toby's idea.

"Fine. But I want the fire immediately contained after the job is done. We don't need all of tekkitopia up in flames."

"We can just ask Ridgedog to make it rain." Benji suggested.

"I don't want to rely on him if we can't even talk to him. Who knows where that lazy demigod is!" Xephos said in a huff.

"Shhh! What if he hears you?!" Panda said, his voice riddled with concern.

"Oh what could he possibly do?" Xephos asked.

"I could teleport you all to the nether with no way out, slowly watching one by one as you all die." A chillingly calm voice said making all the Yogs jump, Honeydew and Lalna let out a girly scream. They all looked up bewildered to see Ridgedog floating behind Xephos.

"Well you asked." He said with a slight shrug of his shoulders.

"That's not funny." Xephos said and Ridges facial expression seemed to darken.

"I never said it was." While most of the Yogs tried to recover for the fright, Ridgedog continued.

"Anyway... What's the status?" He asked, a fake amused smirk on his face.

"Martyn escaped, were bringing him back." Sjin responded.

"I see... Well, what I were to tell you that Martyn is in fact, not the traitor?" He asked, eyes locked straight on Toby.

"That's impossible!" Sips exclaimed.

"Yeah, he almost killed Strippin!" Benji exclaimed.

"Is that true?" He asked. "Well, the real traitor is-" Ridgedog was teleported away before he could answer.

"....Ridge?" Xephos said looking around. "RIDGEDOG!" He called out. He received no answer. "Ugh! Stop messing around Ridge!" Xephos hollered. He furiously typed in his communicator and tried to contact the demigod though it, but received no answer.

"We're did he go?" Strippin asked.

"Anywhere he wants..." Panda answered.

"Maybe he's been Ridgenapped." Zoey gasped.

"Ridgenapped?" Rythian questioned.

"He can't be kidnapped! He's a demigod for Pete's sake!" Sips argued.

"He's Ridgedog. No need to panic. He's probably laughing at us from his castle. Sipping tea in luxury." Xephos grumbled and everyone seemed to agree.
