A Little Competition, Part 2

"Should we wait for him?" Philip asked Jacob. The two of them were turned, looking at where they came from. "He's a greenhorn. I wouldn't doubt he probably hasn't had too much experience."

"Lily said he went hunting everyday since he's been in the forest. I think we should give the three tailed Fox Spirit a little bit more credit." Jacob replied. 

"So we leave or…?" 

Keng blinked in front of them and let out a "ooh" before coming to a stop. 

"You're done talking to Dad." Jacob spoke to Keng. "Ready to go?" 

"You waited for me? Why? Isn't this a competition?" Keng asked. 

"It is. We were worried you wouldn't like all of us having a head start." Philip lied. He actually doubted the Silver Fox and wanted to make sure he wouldn't get lost right away. "You know the way back or do you need help with that?" 

"I'll be fine. Your Dad marked it for me already " Keng pointed behind him.
