Xie's POV

I was walking casually back after wrapping up our little meeting with father and Lin. The fox king was also there and we decided that we needed to go check the Western Waters again. This time with reinforcement.

I was walking casually back in, that is, till

the scent of grime and metallic tang of blood assaulted my senses.

I ran towards the chamber where Ruby was and banged the door open.

Panic clawed at my chest as I scanned the room, my eyes widening at the horrifying sight. Vomit and crimson stains mared the floor, the walls, and my soul.

"Ruby!" I yelled. my voice a desperate, echoing plea. My eyes darted around the room, searching for any trace of her beautiful, ethereal form. My heart raced, and I felt the raw edge of my claws pressing against the skin of my palms.I still tried to believe that she must have gotten very sick and moved to the hospital wing, despite seeing the marks of struggle all over the place.

Fear was coursing through me, mingling with the ang

    The ocean waters were especially rogue that day. It was hard to say if it was because of the weather or because Akata was distressed. He always used to be with Ruby or Jade or Roe whenever his parents had to go somewhere. Never was he left all alone, by himself, at home. This time, it was very different. His mom and Ruby, were gone. Jade was going to assist in the voyage that the foxes and the wolves were going to embark on, along with her mer-witches. The wolf King was to lead the expedition himself, leaving only the Fox king behind to defend both the territories, if anything unexpected happened back home. " Take care of yourself and take good care of your grandfather. Alright my little warrior? Can I count on you to save the day?

    "Make it quick, Shaman, if you want to keep your head. What is taking so long? I am running out of time, can't you see? They might be on us, any moment. The awakening must happen before that. "The Shaman was shaking in fear as he saw how the wolf queen was mishandling the, tattered body of Ruby who was in her mer-witch avatar. "I hope that Fox is able to do his part back there. All useless morons I kept as pets. None of you are worth even the base pay scale. "The Wolf queen murmured as the rogue mer-witch kept watching Ruby's woe with pleasure and smiling to her heart's content. The Shaman had initially agreed to aid the rogues in the lure for short cut money and early retirement. But he was no fool. He could see he was up against something he had no knowledge of but even with his low spiritual power he could tell the sinister forces that drew near. "Well, well, well... if this isn't sweet revenge, then what is? "The rogue mer-witch stroked Ruby down from head to her, barely glo

    " Xie ... Xie my boy, are you alright? "She rushed to his side as he began vomiting blood and foaming at his mouth. Her eyes were about to pop out of her eye sockets. Xie was in excruciating pain but he completely ignored his mother. He pushed her away and stumbled his way forward, towards his beloved. His eyes were flashing with concern even in that state. All that the Wolf Queen could do was watch in agony and jealous rage. Within the next few moments, the cave filled with the rest of the troops. The Wolf King came right at Xie and Ruby and hit them both with the Spirit Conjuring Staff that he snatched from the Queen's hand. It swirled around the two of them for some time and then slowly a greenish fume evaporated from around them. Xie too, fell unconscious over the body of his wife. " Take them back immediately.

    It was a hard job, convincing Akata to go back to his room. The Fox king had to tuck him to bed, all by himself and he had to secretly promise him that he and Akata would go down the Ancient Well to look for his mother and uncle, together. His old hands patted his chubby cheeks with reassurance. After, he came to his own chamber, he asked everyone to leave, because he was feeling discomfort. " Shall I call the doctors my King? " " No, just leave. Let me be by myself for a little bit. Something is not right in my heart.

    The ones fighting in the front line had no time to think about the back up that didn't come. They were too preoccupied, fighting that losing battle, somewhere in their mind the fact was set, that they would not leave that hell hole alive, they would all perish and die. Because the more they killed the more they helped the undead breed. Every limb they severed became an addition to their ranks and numbers, with independent thinking. The ones carrying the unconscious Ruby and Xie were not doing fine, as well. Their ships were being dragged down by the myriad creatures from the netherworld that creeped into the ocean. They kept shooting their arrows laced with their spirit energy and spells but it was useless. The ship was going to sink any moment because of the pilling weight that was building under water, trying to anchor them. " What do we do? We cannot move at this rate. The prince and the princess will drown along with the ship if we don't do anything about it. "One Wolf obser
