By now the monstrous creature were well on their down the hill and in to another forest, this one was more packed with trees and you could already see the devastation that the team had coursed. The trees at the edge of the wood had turned black and all the leaves had dropped off and died. Behind them, the whole entire jungle and the wood had been swallowed by darkness, mist covered the trees and only the top canopy could be seen, the trees were bare and black, the lightness was fading, the further they got away from Aslan, the further away home and lightness was.
Disheartened by the frightful sight that lay behind them, the two slowly made their way down the other side of the hill, towards the mob. The land became a lot flatter now and you could easily make out the footprints of these creatures. The trees were knurled and twisted, like they didn't want to see what was going on around them. All was dark and smokey, save a small flickering light, no telling how far away it was. Soon, Daniel spotted it and beckoned Jane to come and follow. This light seemed not to be getting larger, it seemed to be lowering. That's because it was on the ground. When they got to it, it seemed to be a small glowing creature, lay next to debris of a blown up tree, parts of which had landed on this creature. In fact it seemed to be some kind a minute human, except it had a green-olive skin with mini clothes which seemed to be made of silk. It struggled under the tree, trying to free itself. Jane and Daniel looked at each other in astonishment. A tiny person? Daniel wasn't too surprised as he had already seen a room become and forest, a talking lion and a man become a wolf. 'Erm… Hello?' Jane gingerly spoke. 'Does it understand me?' she turned to Dan.
'Do you speak English?' he asked. Nothing. 'Maybe we should help it first.'
'Try not to hurt it even more though.' The boy slowly lifted up the fallen branch and pushed away from the organism. Surprisingly it sat up and stared at the children. It them put its fist to its chest and coughed, it sounded like squeak to the two though.
'Thank you.' It squeaked. Jane jumped back in surprise.
'Um, it really wasn't anything,' Daniel said, 'my name's Daniel and this is Jane, who are you?'
'I'm Lumina,' it coughed again, 'Thank you for saving me just then, I nearly died, it was those creatures, they rampaged through here like a herd of those Earth elephant's and ran off again. I was picking berries, singing to myself before they came, look at me now!' Lumina sarcastically laughed, 'what will father say too, he will not be pleased. Could you help me, please, I've got to get back before sunset and my wings are broken and I can't feel my legs.'
'We've really got to be go-' Daniel could not finish his sentence.
'Sure! Where do you live?' Jane asked, face beaming with a smile.
'I only live five minutes away. It won't take long, I promise.'
