Aster, Cassy, and Kali ran for their lives, cutting across the dark forest at breakneck speed while trying to keep clear of roots and such to avoid tripping their legs.
*ROOOOAR!*
More than a howl, it was a growl filled with anger that could be heard right behind them!
'If we ran just like this, then the Dire Wolf would catch up soon!' Aster thought as he started to figure out another way to survive.
Just running alone couldn't let them survive. They need a plan, at least!
As he was looking around, he noticed a certain spot that could help them in their predicament. A part of the forest where the greenery was too thick will make it hard for the three-meter-tall wolf to chase them!
"...! Over there! K! Head to the left!"
"Got it!"
