Me: Short chapter and character death. Sorry.

Slade's POV:

"What's taking that Red X kid so long?" Rocco asked.

"There's snow covering the entrance," I said. "He'll have trouble getting through."

I went over to the patch of snow and I started digging. Rocco came up and he started digging too. Once we touched a certain spot, Rocco and I went flying backwards. I landed first and Rocco and he landed on me, knocking the wind out of me in the process.

"That hurt," Rocco said.

"Get off me," I said dangerously.

I pushed him off and he landed face first into the snow. He pulled his head from the snow and he glared at me.

"What was that for?" Rocco asked angrily.

I ignored him as I looked at the entrance of the mountain and the snow was shifting. Five minutes later, Red X emerged from the snow, but Robin wasn't with him.

"Where is he?" I asked dangerously.

Red X looked around and he said, "Not here. Tough luck, I'll just be going now."

Red X started walking away, but I pounced on him. He was stupid enough to turn around once I left the ground and I had him pinned onto his back.

"Where is he?" I yelled.

"They climbed the mountain," Red X said calmly. "They had me surrounded and I lost a fight to Robin already, so I couldn't face them all at once."

I smacked Red X across the face and he growled in pain as my claws pierced his muzzle.

"I don't care if they killed you!" I shouted. "All I want is Robin and I want him now!"

"Well he's probably long gone now."

"What did you just say?" I asked Rocco angrily as I faced him.

"I said he's probably long gone now," Rocco repeated.

"Sticking up for him now are you?" I asked Rocco as I advanced on him in rage. "Starting to care about where Robin is and where he's going now are you?"

"I care for no one, but myself," Rocco said. "I don't care about Robin and I definitely don't care about you. I don't even know why I'm helping you in the first place. Face it Slade, no matter what you do, Robin will always be one step ahead of you and I don't even care."

Rocco started going the way we came three weeks ago and my anger left when I saw him leaving.

"Rocco! Where are you going?" I yelled after him.

"I'm going home!"

"You can't go home yet!" I shouted. "We have to find Robin!"

"Yeah, watch me!"

Bang!

"Rocco!"

Hunters were shooting at Rocco and he was running back to Red X and me.

"We can't take all of these humans on," Red X said. "We need to climb the mountain."

"I never back down from a fight."

I ran at the humans and they were shooting at Rocco and me. I was too fast for the bullets and I dodged all of them. I jumped at a hunter who was trying to load up his gun and we fell to the ground. I bit into his neck and the human's blood went into my mouth and down my chin. Red X joined into the fight and we killed most of the humans except for three.

"I'll take this one," Rocco said attacking the human on his left.

Red X took the human in front of him and I attacked the human who was behind me. Rocco killed his human instantly and I killed mine a few seconds later.

Bang!

I heard the gunshot behind me and I looked at what was shot. Red X was lying on the ground and blood was seeping onto the snow and it was coming from underneath him.

Bang!

Pain shot through my back paw as a bullet went through it and I fell to the ground from the pain. Rocco killed the human that Red X couldn't kill and he killed him. I looked down at my back paw and blood was coming out very fast. The snow was turning black from all the blood and it hurt to move my paw. But I swallowed the pain and I stood up.

"Red X is dead," Rocco said. "And now you're hurt. This isn't worth it Slade. We better get home and forget about Robin or you will die."

I wasn't listening as I limped towards the mountain and I found a safe place to climb.

"I'm going after Robin."

"Slade, just let it go," Rocco said as he ran up to me from behind. "In the condition you're in-"

"I don't care," I said. "I'm not going home until I have Robin and that's final."

I placed my front paws on the first ledge and I pulled myself up, the pain in my back paw getting worse. I continued to climb and I didn't care if Rocco was following me or not. He was following me, but I didn't really care that he was doing at this point.

I will find you Robin and when I do, you'll wish you hadn't run away from me in the first place.

Me: Yes, Red X is dead and Slade's really hurt. What'll happen next chapter? More will be posted soon.
