The Forest Path

[I don't even know where we are....>.>]

(lol, im just trying to go with the flow, ;D ))

[me to!]

((were in some kind of 2nd demention? idk, quicksilver needs to explain.))

[hey guys...sorry? umm we are in a second dimension you could say, the er spirit world, realm of dreams, blah blah blah. you can go back, but you have to go to sleep or something random like that, and bane's castle is smack dab in the center of it. it's like this misty, enchanted forest stuck in eternal night with a blue full moon so it's all blue-lighted. you dig?]

"Sure, let's go now," replied Silver, eyeing Lilysong. "Are you sure you don't want to stick with us Shatter, I'll gladly take you back with us, but don't you want to stay with a group instead of on your own?"

(So we are all heading up to Bane's castle?)

Neon looked at Mac and said in her motherly tone, "Honey...I think it would be best if you would stay behind...I mean after all...you aren't exactly a-"
"MOM!" Mac cut her off, "I'm grown up, I'm not your little baby anymore, I can fend for myself! Lets go!" Mac said a bit annoyed
Neon sighed and waited for Silver

Lunar smiled, hopingshe could fit in. "Wait.. so where excactly are we going?" She asked anyone.

Fern growled once more before lunging at the female, maw wide, revealing bloodied pointy teeth.
" Whoa! Is that anyway to treat an old friend?" Lilysong howled as Fern ripped at her scruff.

[whoa, wait, whats going on here? What is Fern doing? What are we doing? WHAT AM I DOING?!]

(( Fern and Lilysong are sisters, and are exact opposites. Fern kinda envies Lilysong, therefore hates her. Just Poor ol' Fern being Fern. xD))

[ah i see, but where is Fern right now? Is she far away or by everyone?]

((By everyone. Sorry I didn't really clear that up. ^^)

So these dogs had stolen from her own pack as well? No wonder they were going short on food... River thought.

All five of them stood still, and a rabbit passed by. One of the shadows leaped onto it, and when it emerged, the rabbit was completely torn apart. Then the shadows turned to look at the four of them, but then they looked away, uninterested.

John eased up, and lowered his eyelids. "Get out," he said.

"What the heck's going on here?" Andy asked, confused.

Lancey looked over at Andy and shrugged.

"Does it have anything to do with you, then?" John looked over at River.

"I-I don't know... they usually attack me." she answered.

They all just stood there, puzzled by why the shadows weren't attacking.

[oooooo River's getting all mysterious ^^ and Mac, Idrk what anyone's doing. soo...let's just go home and forget Bane's castle?]

[lol yessss 8DDD]

((OH YES. FERN CAN BE LIKE SHE USED TO BEH. xD -flicks Lilysong-))

[ohkay]

All of the sudden, a large, mystical blue lightning bolt shot from the blue moon and into the center of the wolves, shattering into a million pieces. A large, bright white light enveloped everything in sight....

Quicksilver awoke by the river, in the place where they had disappeared to the spirit realm from eons ago. She looked up to see the others with her, and her blue-gray eyes furrowed in confusion.
"What happened?" asked a voice, and the she-wolf turned to see Tempest also awake some feet away.
"I don't know," she replied, looking down at her ankh, it was no longer glowing and had gone cold.
"Bane...?" asked Tem. Quicksilver shook her head.
"He's not THAT powerful... I think it might just have been a...a nightmare."
"A what?" asked Tempest, getting to his feet and padding to sit in front of the already sitting Quicksilver.
"A nightmare. Sometimes a really bad one can produce nightmare storms, and weird things happen like that. Oh well, maybe it's better this way." She sighed, and her brother shrugged.
"The others...they'll wake up right?" he asked suddenly, his stormy blue eyes on Mac.
"Yeah...I think." They remained silent, standing watch over the others.

Fern shot up, her signature howl piercing the air before she tumbled into the river. "GAH!" She screeched, shooting out of the frigid water and shaking her brick-red fur.

Tempest and Quicksilver looked at Fern with their heads cocked. The howl awoke another; another being whom had never set foot on earth before.
"Where am I?" cried Dusk, looking around and, not spotting her sister, growling.
"What did you do?" she accused Quicksilver.

Fern jumped over to her friend. "Dusk! Silver did nothing." She growled before teetering on her feet again. "Whoa!" She cried, tripping on her unsteady feet.

Mac awoke and looked at the water. Suddenly everything shot back into her mind and she struggled up. "W-what?! Where? HOW?!" Mac looked around.
Neon woke up as well, "Hm..its been awhile since I've been in the 'real world'"

Fern was never really good with transferring from world to world, even if it might have been a dream. Tripping again, she gave up and laid down.

"Fern?" called Dusk, shooting a glare at Silver before rushing to her and poking her with a paw.
"You ohkay?" She herself felt a bit wobbly and was fascinated and horrified by being in the real world, as well as being away from her sister for the first time.
"Mac!" called Tempest, rushing to her, "You're all right!" He licked her cheek and nuzzled her neck fur. Quicksilver, ears back slightly, sat vigilently by Raphael's still form, worry beginning to cloud her.

"I'm Fine. It just happens when I transfer from realm to realm." She replied, nudging the wolf to lay down with her.

"Tem!" Mac said quickly, "What happend?"
