Chapter 18

Amy, Des, Xander, Maxis and Blaine were all grouped together as they backtracked making their way to where the fire originated. Amy felt herself getting more and move nervous the closer they got. Des felt her worry and stayed close to her making sure to lick her gently on her head when she started to shiver.

Xander led the little pack as he made sure to scan the area ahead to make sure it was clear. He was so focused that when Maxis bumped into him Xander flinched, "MAX!" taking a deep breath Xander closed his eyes before opening them and focusing on his brother. "Can you please stay back there with Blaine."

"But I wanted to see what you were so focused on."

Xander rolled his eyes, "I am trying to make sure we are treading lightly. We don't know what these being are capable of and the last thing any of us want is to be captured or worse."

Maxis' ear flattened and Blaine stepped in front of him and gently coaxed him to get back with Amy and Des.
