" time to get this party started" Finn laughed as he disappeared into the shadows.
(start of new chapter)
The Wolves blinked twice as they stared at the spot where Finn was just at a moment go. the wind blew and the sound of a sharp object whistling through the air rang out followed by a yelp of pain alerting the pack to the noise only to see one of their own sliced in three.
Immediately a chill ran down their spines giving them a bad feeling. Finn seeing how clueless these dumb dogs were, couldn't help but feel that this was almost like sending lambs to the slaughterhouse.
Flashing out of the shadows like a silver dart under the moons, Finn darted towards his next prey who was now on guard for silent attacks after seeing his comrade sliced up like a steak at a Texan smokehouse.
The wolf sensing killing intent directed towards him howled and activated its iron hide defence technique while making a move to evade. "Hmph, this mongrel dog thinks it can dance with this lord cat, fine let's see if this mutt can keep up," Finn thought in a mocking tone.
Finn raising his claws slashed at the wolf smashing it into a nearby tree with it barely surviving due to the iron hide technique. Afterwards, Finn not yet feeling satisfied began his massacre to the horror of the wolf pack that felt like it was in the midst of a frenzy, killing fiend. Finn laughing, while he battled, seemed to be a blur of silver as his brown fur was too dark to be seen, and only his white underbelly and claws shone under the twin moons.

"Oh I get it, this quest doubles each time it's completed, but where on earth am I going to find 20 demonic beasts?" Finn thought as he decided his next steps. "System, mark on the minimap the way to the next location of the red ghost wine grass stalks. A purple line appeared on the map splitting into two paths to the last remaining stalks for the quest.
After taking a good look at the map Finn decided to start with the location nearest to him as the other stalk was closer to fallen fairy peak making Finn save time if he headed for that plant location last. Walking along the route Finn became more used to his new body but was still feeling like a human wearing a costume. At least some clothes would be nice but of course being a cat there's no need although Finn would say otherwise.
The sky began to lighten as the sun broke the horizon line and slowly began ascending into the night sky pushing out the inky blackness and filling it with the warm yellow rays of the sun. Finn looking up basked in the morning sun as he trekked across the uneven terrain. Observing his surroundings he noticed all the different trees and plants that were unfamiliar to him and never seen before on his planet earth assuming this otherworld was another version of his home planet.
Finn observed the trees that stretched as high as skyscrapers decorated in colourful branches of blue, red, green, and black with mysterious patterns and symbols formed on the trunks except for a few that had leaves in the shape of dragon heads. Finn guessed this was the reason why it was called sky dragon forest. Coming close to the location on the map, Finn slowed his pace and began to watch for beasts guarding the spiritual plant and sure enough a beast that looked like a sabre tooth tiger was curled up nearby still sleeping.
Silently, Finn climbed the side of the tree closest to the herb and inched out onto the branches to prepare his plan and carry out his herb snatching operation. The early morning breeze ruffled Finn's fur as he gazed downwards at the slacking off beast that was supposed to be guarding the spiritual herb. Taking in a breath Finn pushed off the tree and free fell in a skydive position as he plummeted (keep in mind these trees are very tall and the lowest branch is still at least three stories high) down accelerating.
Feeling something was off the demonic beast opened an eye and looked around. Once seeing nothing off to arouse suspicion it closed its eye and went back to its nap. Moments later Finn landed with a thump alerting the chaos beast. Opening both eyes the beast saw Finn digging out the plant and storing it away. Anger and rage swelling in its chest it let out a roar and dashed towards the cat that stole its spiritual herb that it was growing to help the beast breakthrough its cultivation bottleneck.
Finn looked up from the plant that he had just dug was greeted with the sight of a massive sabre tooth tiger charging towards him. With a roll, Finn moved out of the tiger's path as it raced past him. Looking behind, Finn slashed his claws at the sabre tooth, but the sabre tooth easily dodged it and charged towards Finn again.
"Sh*t, why the bad luck all of a sudden, and why is it a gold level beast again? I've already had my fair share of dealing with these brutes, time to ditch this tiger and hightail it out of here!" Finn thought as he ran towards the nearest tree and climbed up six stories high, and like Naruto began to jump from tree to tree in the direction of the next location after looking at the route on the map.
The sabre tooth tiger filled with rage after losing track of Finn swore in rage that it would find Finn and kill him. Unknown to Finn, his path and the sabre tooth would cross again in the future, but for now, Finn was on his way to collect the last herb, and finally reach fallen fairy peak.
