"Peculiar... Perhaps it won't attack you because you're an insect. It never seems to attack the creatures. There is... some sort of creature out there. It comes out every night, waiting in the darkness. I've never been able to get a look at it no matter how many times I've tried. It flees at the first sign of light unbelievably fast."

"... There's... something... out there..."

"Athena? Are you alright?"

Athena didn't respond. She simply stared out into the darkness, her eyes glazed over.

Athena steps back, a little startled at the beetle flying in her face.

"S-sorry..."

She was still shivering and stared at the ground.

"I don't think it will provide you with Identification, WX."

Wilson glanced from WX to the crock pot, that was almost done cooking, and back.

"By the way, what fuel do you run on?"

"Yes... I could use some sleep..."

Wilson opened the ice box and took out a two long strips of jerky and three carrots. He gave them to WX before turning his attention to Moxie.

"I don't have any prepared, but it won't take to long to make some. Athena, you can use my tent if you would like. I'm not going to sleep tonight."

Wilson preformed an action he rarely ever did; he roled his eyes. He now had a bed role for WX and a smaller one for Moxie. He gave them to there respective owners before heading over to his desk and scribbling in a leather bound book with a black feather.

"Scared I'll get lost? Or are you afraid of the boogie man" Cypress teased. "Joking aside, why, what's wrong with the dark?"

--------------------

Wekesa listened and watched while the others conversed. Wekesa decided to re-root near the crock pot, away from the fire but still near the others.

Wy stares at the darkness that was sourrounding them.

Night sure came fast, didn't it?

"There is a creature hiding in the shadows...something that cannot be seen nor touched. But it can be heard...and when you can hear it, it's too late: its jaws are probably already around your neck..."

He slowly turns to Cypress.

"It happened to me...right before the light of Sun shattered the shadows of the night...And it was horrible...it...it...ate one of my arms...it was painful..."

Wakana's eyes popped open, and he sat up with a yawn. 

 

Wakana: "Urgh.... How long was I force slept?" 

 

Wakana quickly noticed it was Dusk, and close to nightfall. He looked around, and saw himself in a forest. He heard a wimper, looked up, and saw Wulfric hanging from a trap.

 

Wakana: "Wulfric! What're you doing up there?"

 

Wulfric barked in response.

 

Wakana: "Hold on! I'll cut you loose!"

 

Wakana looked around, and realised his Tomahawk was in his saddlebag... on his saddle... on Wulfric... Even if he did have a utensil, theres no way he could reach up and cut Wulfric down. Wakana began panicking.
 

Wekesa growled at the disturbance but decided to eat everyone in their sleep leave whatever it was alone.

-------------

Cypress bit her lip. This sounded like something she definitely didn't want to mess with... "Ok, got it... Don't get caught in the dark."
