Mazaska treks across the vast land with sore paws. Zayev follows Mazaska slowly. The sun was scorching down on the two as they went through the rough landscape. Mazaska squinted her eyes as she stared upon the bright sky. Our packs must noticed that we are missing by now...
"Mazaska..." mutters Zayev. "We need to take a break and eat... My paws are sore!" Mazaska shakes her head as a no and Zayev sighs sadly.
"We need to reach the Mountains by sundown." she pointed out. Zayev grunts loudly and hesitantly follows. He lifts his head up high and points his nose towards a small shade.
"Look, shade!" he races over towards the cooling spot and wraps his tail around him. Mazaska narrows her eyes at him and reluctantly follows him.
"Perhaps I'll be able to see one of the Sky Spirits in my dreams." Mazaska mutters as she curls up into a ball beside Zayev. She shuts her eyes tightly and attempts to enter the realm of Sky Spirits.
~~~
The same wolf from Mazaska's previous dream appears. Her fur was gleaming with mist, gray and her blue eyes sparkled. The wolf from her last dream padded towards her, resting her soft eyes on Mazaska. The elegant wolf opened her mouth to speak, but black smoke quickly surrounded the two. The beautiful wolf wrapped her tail around Mazaska to protect her. Mazaska stared at the she-wolf's eyes. Instead of a soft expression, the she-wolf's face was full of panic and dismay.
"Run!" Mazaska stood there, puzzled, for a few heart beats. "Run, child! Run until you enter the safe sanctuary!" Mazaska nodded and sprinted. She did not know where to go, she just had to find the safe sanctuary. The black smoke continued to pursue Mazaska as she ran as fast as she could. A light glow was just ahead of her. The safe sanctuary! Mazaska continued to run with every strength that she can muster. Suddenly, the black smoke engulfed her.
~~~
"Wake up, Mazaska, wake up!" cried Zayev. She opened her eyes in a jolt and stood up quickly.
"Wh-what happened?" her breathing quickened. Suddenly, Mazaska's surroundings felt scorching hot. Red flames surrounded the two wolves. She could almost hear the hissing from the red fire.
"We have to get out of here!" she howled.
"How? There's no where to go!" Zayev shrieked back. "We're going to die!" Mazaska had to think of a plan. No, there is no time to think.
"We run!" Mazaska yelled. Zayev nodded and the two raced out of the dry land. They jumped over broken trees and avoided fiery flames. Mazaska squinted her eyes to see the Mountains.
"We have to reach the Mountains... We'll be safe there!" she panted. Run until you enter the safe sanctuary. The she-wolf's words rang throughout Mazaska's head. I hope we are going to the right place...
