D.O.G. - Chapter 08.

Night had come, the pale shine of the moon illuminated the view. In the darkness only one shadow moved and then a figure ran through the field.

Negreno leaned to a ruin as he guarded over, in his hand he kept a spear. Suddenly he heard a noise.

“Halt! Who’s there?” shouted the echidna pointing his weapon to the darkness. Sound’s of footsteps surrounded then a person appeared in the light of the torch.

“Silverantheron? What are you doing here?” startled Negreno.

“It’s not your concern.” answered Silver silently.

“Yes it is! This way is go to the forbidden forest. What you want there?”

“I told you it’s not your concern!” in the gey echidna’s voice there was a scary tone.

“You’re my friend! I don’t want you make something madness!” shouted Negreno.

“I want to keep my promise.”

“Just for this you want to do? The mourning already took away your mind! It has no reason for. You just run into your destiny!”

“I’m sorry Negreno but I must go ahead!” Silver made a step forward but the other obstructed his path.

“Then I’ll stop you with force just to listen to me!” pointed his spear at him Negreno. Suddenly he felt a hard hit on the backside of his head and the echidna collapsed to the ground. In the air a small rock floated.

“Please forgive me.” Said Silver then continued his rush.

Everything seemed peacefully in the forbidden forest. Only the crickets chirping broke the silent. Nearby a guard kept watch, with his glance raked the shadows. In the next time knock sounded then a moan as the soldier jerked and fell over senseless. From the darkness another echidna emerged and passed next to the soldier.

Behind the bushes a beautiful lake shined in the moonlight, on the coast fireflies danced in the air. For a moment Silverantheron stopped and hesitated but then walked into the water. Until a waist run over and looked at his reflection only. Plunged his hands in.

“Here I still can turn back… it’s not obligatory to drink. Just turn around and… No!” shook his head “I came here so I finish it.” and he drank the whole at once.

Like a nice warm feeling expanded through his body. But then Silver moaned and grabbed his heart. Because of an invisible wind the water started rippling around him and glittering shinier. The echidna trembled and let out a painful cry in the same time the lake flashed up, the light illuminated everything.

Silver woke up on the coast. Sat up and rubbed his aching head.

“Nhh… it wasn’t that nice. Is it succeeded?” he had no time to think about because he heard shouts and approaching footsteps “Better to get out here.” Muttered then silently left the place.
