Chapter Seven
My body felt like it was floating.
My whole head spun with dizziness as I was pushed forward.
Something hard was pushing against me.
My lack of sense of where I was had only grown. My sense of smell drifted into confusion.
Then as I slowly but carefully opened my heavy eyes, the same shackle in my last dream was around my neck.
And I suddenly felt that I was being pulled and pushed at the same time.
Where was I being taken -ahem pushed and pulled- to?
I looked up only to see the most ugliest creature.
It had one big eye. No colour, just a big black eye.
It was a dark purple-ish black.
It had eight terrifyingly long arms.
Wait no. They were tentacles.
I was pushed by yet a smaller one.
We kept going for what seemed like hours until we stopped.
The ground rumbled, indicating that something even bigger than any of these creatures combined, was coming straight for me.
Just as I finally got to my senses, he held a big orb of light, similar to lighning, and aimed for me.
I feared this was my last.
He blasted it at me.
I closed my eyes.
I held my breath.
Then something amazing happened. . .
I opened my eyes only to find that I was in a whole completely different world.

Felix kept his eyes open for anything dangerous or threatening.
In the morning we had decided to let Fiona come along.
Well I did, anyways.
It was hard in two ways.
Felix still didn't trust her.
Then there's Fiona. She had a nervous feature to her every time the Twilight Guild was mentioned.
I can tell you now, it was quit a battle for me. But more paws means more help, right?
We kept on walking through the jungle.
I could sense we were getting closer to the Lost Temple every step, and moving closer to battle.
I was still a bit uncomfortable about fighting a big army of phantoms, but I worried more about the guild.
I have had lots of experience with fighting, and I had confidence in myself as long as I had my swords.
But in the past few dreams, I could feel something worse is going to happen.
I heard something that made me jump.
I checked Felix and Fiona.
They had the same expression.
Someone had screamed.
Someone was in trouble.
I picked up pace and perked my ears in the direction of the scream.
I went left, right, left again, and then stopped to see someone over towering a tiger.
She had been scratched and blood pooled around her feet.
Even from here I could see it wasn't that bad of a cut on her shoulder, but she was losing a lot of blood.
I finally saw who that was when his head turned around.
Saturn.
The evil hyena with the red eyes, the colour of deep crimson, took firm steps toward me.
"So we meet again do we? How is life for you then, Trixie?"
My eyes darted to my right then to my left, hoping to catch a glimpse of the others.
But there was no sign of the them.
I hissed and growled and backed up.
I stopped to the point where I ended up bumping into a tree.
Now I had no choice but to fight.
"Scared are we?"
"No, Im not scared." I said. In fact right now, I couldn't be scared.
I had to defend myself.
I grabbed my swords.
He chuckled.
"Aye, we fight."
He retrieved his weapon, a sharp dagger, and threw at me.
I jumped out of the way, just in time for me to strike at his leg.
He showed no sign of pain and attempted to bite back at me.
Unfortunately, he had successfully done just that.
He sank his jaw deep into my ear, causing me to drop my weapons.
Fortunately, I was able to escape his jaw and scratch his eye.
He gave an evil smirk and clamped his paw on my swords.
He flicked them away, throwing them into a nearby bush.
"We fight. No weapons."
I watched his every move.
I made sure to stay clear of his teeth and his claws. But it was not easy.
He eventually stuck his teeth into my back and it knocked the wind out of me when I fell to the floor, unable to get back up.
My vision started to blur as tears pricked my eyes.
The pain was unbearable.
"Looks like the cat can't land on her own feet." Saturn laughed.
"Time to finish you once and for all."
This was it.
This was where I closed my eyes and held my breath, ready for my death.
But just as he was about go for my throat, something stopped him.
I heard a yelp -from him- and I barely opened my eyes, just enough to glance at him.
Saturn was thrown into a tree and lay in his own blood. But he had enough strength to stand and run in the other direction.
After that, my eyes decided to close.
But I could still feel the touch of someone dragging me away.
