The ground was covered with these creatures that resembled rats except were about one to two feet long and very skinny with no tails the length wasn't really in there whole body just in there torso like someone had stretched them, and they were everywhere on the floor, walls, and ceiling. I made a yelping sound at the sight of these creatures and for the second time in two minutes Crim grabbed my mouth. "There called Craddoelos, Crads for short" Crim said. "I have never heard of them" I said. "That's because they only live in this desert" Crim explained. "Shhhhhhh!" cloud looked at us angrily "you're making to much noise!" Crim looked embarrassed. I didn't really like cloud that much he seemed snotty. We kept walking about 15 minutes before we came to a fork in the path one way led up and on way led about the same way we had been going. "I will go upwards and see what is that way" cloud told us. "You two go the other way I will catch up to you when I figure out where this path leads too." We walked off and Cloud ran up the other path. It was a long time before anything interesting happened we walked maybe two miles underground when it started getting late we sat down and Crim pulled out a small green stick that was about a foot long. He unscrewed one of the ends and but another stick in side of it this other stick was green also but about two inches shorter and a little skinnier. Then he put the end back on and shook it for about thirty seconds, and then he took of the other end a smoky cloud came pouring out. He poured this smoke all over when it cam near the Crads they ran. There was about a ten foot space now that there were no Crads he sat down again and got out to thermal sleeping bags and handed one to me. We got inside them. "Should we worry that Cloud isn't back yet?" I asked. "no" Crim answered. "Ok" I said "Hey Crim?" "Ya?" "What was Clouds arm doing?" Crim sighed then turned to face me "We don't know much about cloud except that we found him in the desert. he is very special and very strong not someone to mess with" "Interesting" "Yes it is. Now go to bed" I fell asleep thinking about what Cloud could be
