Chapter 2
WHOOSH "AHHH" THUD!
The vortex opened and we fell out in what looked like the middle of a forest. I quickly got up and made sure everyone was all right. They were. "Any sign of the Kromaggs?" Wade asked. "No, I think they're already here. We would have seen them come out of the vortex by now." I said "Well we aren't going to get anywhere by just standing around" Remmy pointed out. "I for one think we should try to find our way out of this forest while we still have some daylight left," the Professor remarked. Good idea I thought as we headed off.
We walked for what seemed like hours. It was getting dark and we were tired. Then Wade said what we were all thinking. "I think we should stop here for the night and get some rest. We should probably build a fire, if for nothing else than to keep the wild animals away." "I'll go and collect some wood." I said. "Good thinking my boy I'll come with you and we'll get the work done twice as fast." The Professor said.
It only took us a few minutes until we had our arms full of wood. As we walked back The Professor was telling me about the time he stopped an epidemic on a world where antibiotics had never been invented. Just then I thought I saw something off in the distance, something that looked like a blue centaur with a long tail. Then suddenly it looked up and I could see that it had two stalks on top of its head. I turned to the Professor and told him what I saw, but by the time I pointed out where to look, it had run off. "You should get some rest Quinn. You're starting to see things." The Professor said to me. "Yeah okay, let's head back Wade and Remmy are probably wondering what happened to us." I said. When we got back to camp and started the fire, I told Remmy and Wade of what I saw. "Are you sure it wasn't just a deer?" Wade asked, "No, I'm not sure what it was but I know that there's nothing like it back home." I said, "Well whatever it was its gone now so just forget about it and try to get some sleep Quinn. I'll take the first watch." Remmy said. Okay sure I thought as I drifted off to sleep.
