Jon's POV
      I was standing infront of the Planchazo, slightly shaking as I held the soul. I saw the others slowly walking up, Ashlie was holding her side, limping slightly, Dawn helping her, and Tommy was limping, and Nick was also walking worriedly beside him. Uni was also hurrying forward, towards Cory, blood soaking the long, white sleeves from the wounds in his shoulders. As they all stood behind me, I took in a shaky breath. One wrong move...And this thing could kill us all... I thought fearfully. I felt the soul in my hands, and it had a light, comforting beat to it, like a heart.

      I slowly looked up, my eyes meeting with the red, strange eyes of the Planchazo. "T-This is a soul of trust..." I stuttered, remembering my parents tell me what the soul colors had meant when I was very young. "With the power of this soul...I ask you to trust us, for we will hurt you no longer, if you do the same for us...." I said, trying to keep my voice from wavering. The creature stared me in the eyes, and I stared in amazement, and confusion as it's eyes began to change.

       The black part of it's eyes began to lighten up, becoming white, as it's supposed to be. Then, it's pupils shrank back to the shape of a circle, and it's eyes went from a burning red, to a softer, kinder brown color. The creature paused for a second, then it sneezed, and I frowned as a blackish smoke sprayed out of it's nose. The smoke disappeared into the air, and the creature shook off. It looked back at me, still holding the soul, and it leaned closer to me, making me tense up. It's nose was only a few inches away from my face, and I closed my eyes fearfully, but then I felt something unexpected. I felt something warm and wet go across my face. I opened my eyes, confused, and the creatures gray tongue licked me once more. I giggled, petting the creatures cheek, "Good boy!" I laughed.

     I then noticed the arrow sticking out of the creatures nose, "May I..." I whispered, reaching towards it. The creature looked at me, nodding a bit. Smart wolf. I thought, I touched the arrow lightly and to my surprise, the arrow glowed green. I pulled my hand away, and the arrow desinigrated, leaving a bleeding wound in the creatures nose. I was confused, but I still outstretched one of my hands, touching the wound. My hands glowed green through my gloves, and I watched the wound slowly heal. I smiled, "Good boy..." I whispered, petting the creatures large head.

        "How are you doing that...?" I heard Ashlie ask. "I'm not sure..." I answered. I took a step back from the creature, still holding the heart. "He's tame, guys...We're good.." I said, trying to calm the others. I held my hands out, and the soul slowly disappeared. The creature watched it fade away, then looked calmly back at me. It was sitting down, looking like a tamed dog. I saw Ashlie take a hesitant step towards it, and the creature looked at her. She paused but I stepped over, grabbing her arm and slowly pulling her towards the creature. She held out her hand and began to carefully pet him, smiling. "Are we really gonna trust this thing!?" Tommy whisper-yelled. "Don't worry Tom, he seems tamed enough." Nick said, walking forward and petting the creature. 

      Then, I remembered Cory. I gasped, turning around to where Cory was. He was still on the ground behind me, and Uni was crouched beside him. Cory was holding his chest, which was  bleeding heavily from his wounds. Uni's shirt was also soaked in blood from where the creature had stuck it's large claws into his shoulders. I quickly crouched down infront of them. Cory looked at me, though he seemed weak, "H-hey, Jon...T-That was p-pretty cool..." He stuttered quietly. I frowned, "Let me see your wounds, then we can talk about it." I spoke quickly. He nodded, pulling his shirt up, revealing three large, deep claw marks on his chest. I stared at them fearfully, then I felt a familiar strong feeling.

      A green heart glowed through my vest, and green surrounded Cory, Uni, and I. After a few moments, the green dome disappeared, and I was left feeling tired. Cory looked down, seeing his wounds gone. Uni moved his shoulders aswell, feeling that the pain was gone. "Thanks, Jon!" Uni exclaimed, though blood was still soaked in his shirt, but I could tell he didn't care. "Yeah, thanks..." Cory said with a relieved sigh. I nodded, standing up and turning back to the Planchazo. It was staring at me, and I could tell it had been watching me heal my friends. "Hey Jon, we named it!" Ashlie announced.

     "Why are we naming the deadly creature!?" Tommy exclaimed, but we ignored him. "We named him Blue, since you tamed him with a blue heart." Nick said. I smiled, petting Blue's nose, "Blue...I like that!" I said happily. After a few moments, Cory and Uni hesitantly came up, petting Blue. "It's a wonder how you tamed this thing, Jon. NOBODY can tame a Planchazo..." Cory said. "That's because no one is foolish enough to try." Nick joked. I smiled, shrugging, "Well, at least it didn't kill me."  I said simply, making them chuckle. "This is quite a large animal." I heard Dawn say, and I noticed him staring at it from the side. "I know, right! I've NEVER seen one this big!" Cory exclaimed. Suddenly, Dawn perked up, as if he had a good idea. "This would make travel much faster..." I heard him murmur. "Dawn, whatever you're thinking, stop thinking it!" Tommy exclaimed. "What are you thinking, Dawn?" Nick questioned.

       "Nope! You are NOT getting me on that thing!!!!" Tommy screamed. "You only have to ride it, dude, chill!" Cory snapped back. "I 'only have to ride it'!? You make it sound easy! This thing is LITERALLY my biological enemy, and worst nightmare!" Tommy continued. "Look at it this way, it'll be harder to bite you if you're on it's back." Uni said simply. "Wow, thanks Uni, you have enlightened me." Tommy said sarcastically. "Tommy, you're getting on that thing, whether I have to knock you out to get you on it's back or not." Nick said simply. "Good luck!" Tommy said, beggining to run the other way. Nick sighed, reaching out quickly and grabbing Tommys tail. He yanked Tommy back, "OW!" Tommy exclaimed painfully. Nick chuckled, "You aren't getting away that easily!" Nick joked.

          "Let's just do this." Dawn sighed. "I'll get on first, so I can calm him down if he gets mad." I volunteered. That statement didn't seem to make Tommy calm down anymore, "Geez Jon, you're WAY to nice, seriously!" Cory exclaimed, and I shrugged. I walked over to Blue, and I carefully pet his side. "Okay, this'll feel weird, but trust me, please, okay?" I questioned, and he let out a quiet bark, making me smile. I gripped his fur, and slowly pulled myself up, sitting right behind his shoulder blades. I gripped his fur carefully, and Blue didn't even care that I was on his back. I exhaled a breath that I didn't even know I was holding, and looked at the others. "My turn!" Ashlie exclaimed.

     After a few minutes, everyone was on Blue's back, except for Nick and Tommy. I was first, Ashlie was behind me, then it was Uni and Cory. "You'll NEVER get me on that thing!" Tommy exclaimed. "Oh really?" Nick asked, raising an eyebrow. He then grabbed Tommy, who screamed fearfully. He picked him up, and slung him onto Blue's flank. Tommy screamed in fear, but Nick ran over, jumping on the place infront of Tommy, facing him. He hugged him, "I got ya! Don't worry!" He exclaimed, making the others giggle. I looked forward, "Okay...Blue, go forward!" I said, and he actually listened. He began walking forwards, and I giggled as I heard Tommy let out a fearful cry. (Tommy is me litterally EVERYTIME I ride a horse XD)

       We rode Blue as he walked for a few minutes, then I heard Nick say, "Keep doing that, and you WILL make him mad." I looked back, seeming Tommy holding tightly into Blue's thick fur, his claws outstretched, gripping onto Blue. Tommy glared at him, "Then I'll do this." He said simply, and I heard his bones crack as he began to turn into a cat. I saw Blue look back curiously as Tommy continued. I looked back again, and laughed as I saw Tommy in the form of a cat, gripping onto Blue's fur with all four legs, his claws tightly gripping  Blue's thick fur. "Was that REALLY necessary?" Nick questioned, making Tommy nod. I looked forward again, smiling. "Hold on, everyone!" I called. "Blue, run!" I ordered, and Blue burst into speed, running through the dark forest.
