381–In The Monster’s Cave

Byron:

I could not celebrate for long. As soon as we saw the monster fly away, both of us came out from behind the bushes.

“And now you are going to follow it?” Sean asked me, giving me a very judgmental look.

I mean, my pack was not that large, and we were not wealthy enough for me to take many warriors along.

I also did not want to hand this task over to anyone else. I wanted to be the one to do it.

I had promised Madeline that I would bring her news, and I meant to keep that promise.

“So what do you think I put the tracker on for? All that effort just because I wanted to give it a piece of jewelry?” I told Sean, slapping my forehead.

“Now give me my tablet,” I said, extending my hand toward him.

“Do you think I walk around with something that big in my pocket?” Sean snapped back at me.

We were both growing bitter toward each other, but it did not matter to me. We were still friends. No matter how much we fought, we always stayed together.

“Come on, let us go get the tablet. I need to leave right now,” I said anxiously.

He gave me the same look again, full of annoyance, and then we both started walking.

As soon as we reached our old car, I took out the tablet and started tracking the signal.

“Listen, if something happens to me, tell my people to-” I began to say, but Sean cut me off.

“To not put their lives in danger? I know you do not want the monster to attack them,” he insisted.

When he said that, I gave him an angry look.

“Are you insane? No. Bring the entire pack with you. Look, the alpha has to survive. People come and go,” I argued.

As soon as I said that, Sean looked at me with deep sadness.

“Did you expect me to say that my people should live while I die?” I asked him, staring at him in disbelief.

“Try thinking about your pack for once,” Sean taunted me, but I waved him off.

“Look at this. It is picking up the signal,” I said, showing him the tablet screen as I started moving.

“At least take the bag with you,” Sean called out as he hurried after me. “What are you going to fight with if the monster catches you? Your hands, or that sharp tongue of yours?”

He caught up to me while throwing comments my way and handed me a bag.

Without lifting my eyes from the screen, I slung the bag over my shoulder.

“No. I have another sword,” I replied as I kept walking. “I will fight it with that.”

Now the path became difficult. It felt as if even the monster did not know the way to its own home.

Sometimes it went in one direction, then suddenly moved in another like it had lost its mind.

At one point, I almost felt like shouting at it, asking if it even knew where its home was or if we should just look it up together on a GPS.

Finally, it started moving toward very distant mountains. Morning had already arrived, and the monster was nowhere to be seen.

It was probably flying above the clouds.

As I followed the signal, it led me toward an extremely old mountain range. No one ever came to these hills.

There was nothing here. The land was barren, with no food anywhere. Speaking of food, I had already finished almost half the supplies in my bag.

Eventually, I hid behind a small hill. When I saw the monster descend onto a tall mountain, I knew there had to be a cave there.

With that thought, I made my plan. I would wait for it to leave. The moment it did, I would hike up, go inside, and see what was there.

This was my only chance.

After waiting for a while, I decided to hike up a little. I did not want it to leave and then return before I even reached the top.

I climbed part of the mountain and reached a slightly higher point, then hid again.

I stayed there for nearly six hours. It was a good thing I had downloaded a few movies on the tablet.

I quietly started watching them. At least I would not get bored.

Finally, I heard the sound of wings flapping. I set the tablet aside and looked up to see the monster emerge again.

This time, it flew off somewhere else. I waited until it was completely gone. The moment it disappeared, I started running.

I ran toward the place where it had landed. When I reached the spot, I saw the entrance of a cave.

But fear hit me instantly when I noticed bones scattered even outside the cave.

At that moment, I was sure I would be bringing back nothing but bad news.

As soon as I stepped inside the cave, a strange, sharp smell filled the air. The cave felt as if it was full of dead bodies.

Thoughts of bad news, grief, and cries for help flooded my mind.

I turned on my flashlight and moved forward carefully. I almost slipped over some of the bones.

“Baxter,” I called out, hoping he might still be alive.

The chances were low, but I had to try. I had come too far to turn back now.

After walking for a long time, I began to think that no one was alive in there.

Then my flashlight lit up a human figure, and my heart nearly stopped.

He was lying there fully exposed in the beam of light, covered in blood and badly injured.

“Baxter,” I called his name, and goosebumps spread across my skin.
