The Dimming Fire: Chapter 10

Maxis's POV

We had been walking a long for several hours now, and surprisingly I had only tripped 10 times, and we hadn't seen any signs of monsters yet either.

"Maxis," started M, "do you see anything ahead?" He had been asking me that every 5 minutes or so.

"Somebodies on edge," I head Evan say as M growled in response. I tripped, but Hippolyta caught me.

"Thanks," I replied casually. Suddenly, we heard a howl in the distance.

"More Fenris Wolves?" asked Hippolyta as they all tensed up. I did a quick glance around, but couldn't see anything.

"No, I think it's just echoes from far away, so we don't have to worry about it." I saw the others nod as they relaxed. We began walking again, when I heard the others gasp. "What's happening!" Only M didn't move.

"It's some kid trapped in some sort of magical box."

"What? Where?" However M didn't hear as Hippolyta shouted for him to come help them.

"Come on Maxis! Come over hear we need you to help get to him!"

"Who is this person! Blind person here!" Evan stopped and responded.

"Maxis, it's Josh McLean."
