Recap-"Hahahahah...", he continued his evil laughter, "Where are you hiding you small blue freaks? You can run but you can never escape from me, hahahah...", and he ran away in the direction where minions flew.
"Whoa, who is he?", asked Johnathan, to which Stella replied,
"A Hog-rider."

Chapter-4

Separation

"Well, whoever he is, but I gotta say this, he's gotta cool ride, doesn't he?"
"It's not time for jokes, we have to continue walking."
"But wait, are you gonna leave them, I mean those minions are being terrorised by that Hog-terrorist?"
"Hog-rider."
"Whatever it is, that's not the issue right now, we should help them."
"But why should we?"
"Because sometimes we have to help for no reason."
"Then go ahead, I am not coming, I will go without you, that means, I am leaving you and you have to figure out the path out of this forest on your own."
"Fine, if you don't come then I will go alone and help them."
"OK, do whatever you want, you idiot."
"I am going but before I go, I gotta say this..."
"Huh?"
"In this world, those who don't obey rules are considered as trash but those who leave their friends behind are far worse than trash.", and he ran away leaving Stella behind. Those last words of him shaked her from inside. She just freezed there and stared at Johnathan who was running away from her. When he completely disappeared, she thought to herself, 'How selfish I was, how I just couldn't agree with him to help them, what just happened to me.'. At that moment she was feeling very guilty, but what could she do now? He was gone. 'That idiot... why I am thinking about him... I should continue my journey but I can't... it's like I want to help him... I want him to be around me when I am alone... is this feeling due to growing friendship between us? ... but whatever it is, he needs my help and I won't disappoint him.' Out of her confusing thoughts, she made a resolve to help him. Then her eyes met with another pair of eyes which were looking down at her from the top of a tree. It was a baby minion who was staring at Stella, and she did the same to it.
On the other side. Johnathan ran in the direction of that Hog-rider.
'Hoe Stella could be so mean.', he thought to himself, 'How can she become so selfish that she cold-heartedly denied to help those pitiful minions, but whatever is the situation, I must help them even without her, and find my way out of this forest.'. At that thought, his eyes became a little humid and a tear of drop shed from his eyes. It was the feeling of being alone and got separated by Stella. But he ignored his inner emotions and continued running Then he reached to a destroyed garden, it looked like that garden was decorated and arranged in a civilised manner as some people were residing there, but now it was all doomed. He could only saw the ashes of burned trees around him, but some trees survived that disaster and out of those trees came out a group of minions, who looked cautious like they were going to attack on Johnathan but also they seemed scared and sad...
