Chapter 36 - ○°Strange Misconceptions•●

Ice was the first to wake up. He could tell that he was in The Savanna, but something about home was different. The sky was dark, but it wasn't night. Distant screams could be heard from all directions and the grass that was around was broken and charred. Ice shook Kole and said, "Kole! Kole wake up!"

He woke up and said, "Ice? You're very much mistaken. I'm not Kole." Ice said, "Wait what are you talking about?" Kole sighed and said, "Stop being weird Ice." Kole looked at everyone else and became confused. "Wait... is that my body? Are we dead?" Ice tilted his head, and Kole shouted, "Oh no! We switched bodies!" Ice said, "Wait! Who are you!?"

Kole said, "It's me! Milo! If that's the case, then Kole must be in my body!" Blaze woke up saying, "What's all the racket...?" Ice stared at Blaze and said, "That's definitely not how Blaze acts. Lark?" Lark said, "Well who else could I be? Wait why is my fur orange? And... wait what's going on!?"

Milo said, "You're in Blaze's body. Something must've went wrong in the teleporter." Lark screamed, and it woke Blaze up. He shouted, "Will you shut up!? I-" Blaze, who was in Lark's body, stared at Lark, who was in his body, for a moment. Then he shouted, "What the hell is going on!?"

Ice said, "You guys switched bodies!" Blaze screamed, and water started flowing out of his ears. Lark shouted, "Why is this happening!? That never happens when I get angry!" Flames appeared on the tips of Lark's ears, and Milo said, "Kole isn't waking up... and I sense trouble approaching. I feel so much lighter..."

Ice shouted, "Shut up! We can scream about this later!" After Ice screamed, a bunch of wolves ran up to Ice and shouted, "Help! Help us!" One of them said, "Look! It's Lark!" Blaze said, "Huh..?" The wolves ran up to him, thinking that it was Lark. The actual Lark whispered, "Ice! We have to help them!"

Ice sighed and said, "Fine. But we have to wait for Kole to wake up." Lark growled, "No! We don't have time!" Suddenly, Blaze shouted, "I'm not that bastard wolf! My name is Blaze!" He then pointed his nose at Lark and said, "It may not look like it, but that's Lark. He and I switched bodies!"

A white wolf howled and said, "He's right! Lark's soul is within the fox!" Then the wolves started surrounding Lark. Ice said, "So uh... what do you need help with?" The white wolf said, "Right! Our clan base has been overrun by bandits! They're trying to force our chief to teach them how to use water magic!"

Milo said, "There's no time to waste!" The white wolf said, "I'm confused. There's a tiger's soul in the cheetah?" Ice said, "We teleported here and they switched bodies." A wolf said, "We can take care of that as soon as you help us." Ice growled and said, "God dammit fine. Can you guys watch the tiger for me?"

The wolves nodded, and Ice said, "Alright! Let's go!" Milo, Blaze, Lark and Ice followed a grey wolf to an abandoned town. The wolf said, "We live under the town, but the bandits flooded the underground city. Our chief is in that building." The wolf used his nose to point at a large building.

The wolf ran back to where they came, and the heroes moved forward. Right after the wolf left, Ice and the others encountered a couple of hyena guards. Blaze tried to use fire, but all he could produce was a small black cloud. Lark tried to use his water powers, but not even a little bit of water was summoned. The guards laughed until Milo pounced on them. When he did, he jumped back and shouted, "We have to use brute force for now!"

Ice froze the guards and said, "There's no need to. I'm here too." Lark growled and said, "You still need to get your ice under control." Ice looked down, and noticed that his paws were covered with frost. Ice said, "I... will." Then they continued running to the building that held the wolves' chief.
