Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

It was midnight

The three of them are sleeping quietly.

A rustling noise could be heard.

The mother heard a rustling noise and became alert immediately. She took out a dagger under her pillow and looked carefully at the kids.

********

The wolf found the hut at the top of the mountain.

"A hut…" the wolf looked at the hut with a bloodthirsty eyes.

The wolf grinned "So they're hiding in there" he licked his lips and sneaked around the hut.

The wolf did not know that he alerted the mother and would soon leave this world.

The mother sneak and attacked the wolf behind him with dagger. The dagger slashed his neck and his head fell. Blood bursting.

"Tsk! What a pest" she said with a hint of annoyance.

She cleared up the scene calmly as if nothing happened.

********

The next morning

When Hannah woke up she seems excited

Shawn was confused about what she was excited about.

"Why do you seem so excited and you look like you're anticipating something?" Shawn asked her curiously.

"Because today is berry hunting day" Hannah looked at her mother with anticipation.

The berry hunting day is when they would look for different types of berries that can help one's health.

"Okay, okay. You guys can play outside first and I will be cooking." the mother said and went to the kitchen.

The kids went outside and play with a basketball.

********

The mother finished cooking and it's time to eat.

When they were eating

The mother warned them "Don't eat the fruits and berries you guys see and take them home once you guys finished collecting them and I will be checking if they are poisonous or not".

The two kids nodded, brought a basketball and went out to collect berries after they finished eating.

As they were looking for berries, they found some bushes of blueberry.

"Blueberries!" they shouted as they ran.

"These blueberries should be enough to fill half of our baskets" Kiel pondered for a moment and said.

"Right! It's a lot!" Hannah jumped and shouted.

As she jumped, she saw vines of grapes and looked at it with glimmering eyes.

"What's up?" Kiel asked as he followed her line of sight.

His eyes lit up and he dragged Hannah to the vines of grapes.

Before they reach, they saw a pack of wolves.

They shivered and started sweating.

They saw the pack of wolves collecting grapes. Their baskets full.

They quickly ran away, afraid the wolves would eat them alive.

The wolves heard their footsteps and noticed them. "It's him, I remember him!" one wolf shouted.

"Who? They're just kids." another wolf looked at him.

"The last time I saw Allan was when he was chasing that boy" the wolf quickly said to the other wolf.

A wolf sneakily chase after Kiel and Hannah. "Idiots, there is only one reason Allan would chase after humans, and that is obviously because they either have magic in them or treasures in them".
