Chapter 335
I was still in disbelief over it .
Wait what ?? She asked , dumbfounded .
She healed you and she wasnt part of our team ? She healed me by licking the wound , I emphasized .
It was so strange .
And then she just disappeared .
You dont know where she went ?? Tabby gasped .
No , I admitted .
But I would like to find out .
We searched the forest for a long while , searching for the flag and sedulously keeping our eyes out for the black wolf .
The sun had long set , and it was dark but thanks to our wolf eyes , we were still able to see during the night as if it were daytime , even in our human forms .
Maybe we should get a better view , Tabby suggested , glancing up at the tree .
Youre a good climber .
I nodded in agreement .
Give me a boost up , I told her as I held onto the lowest branch of the tree .
She grabbed my feet , and I was able to use her to get a higher stance and climb fully onto the branch .
It was stable enough that I was able to stand on it without any issues .
Once I was on the branch , I was able to hoist myself up onto others and climb along the side of the tree while Tabby stared at me in awe .
She expressed that she wasnt a good climber herself , and our time in the arena was just from adrenaline .
I continued my way up until I reached the top ; I had never been afraid of heights , so this wasnt a big deal for me .
From the top of the tree , I was able to see almost everything , even the other campsites of the other players .
They werent able to see me , but I could see them .
It seems that they were doing what we were doing as well , taking shifts .
Some were staying by their campsite , keeping an eye on their captured flags , while others were sleeping .
I scanned the area , my eyes trailing along the forest grounds .
I spotted some other wolves from the different .
teams roaming around , hunting and waiting .
They werent hear us yet , but at least I knew which direction to avoid right now .
Out of all the wolves and humans I could see from this height , I didnt see the black wolf that saved me , and I wondered if she was one of the others in human form .
I tried to get a good look at their faces , trying to figure out if any of them looked familiar .
Im sure Id be able to see it in her eyes .
Why would she bother saving me if she was from another team ? Do you see anything ? Tabby asked from the bottom .
I remained quiet , not wanting to give up my location because if I shouted back at her , the others would be able to spot me without question .
My eyes continued to scan the area , and I saw some other animals that roamed the forest grounds , such as bears and even more deer .
I saw something in the far distance , and I narrowed my eyes .
Was that a cave ? If I were to hide a flag anywhere , it would be in that cave without a doubt .
I started to climb down from the tree , scratching myself on the way .
I hissed in pain as I felt blood trickling down
my leg , my pants ripping in the process .
When I landed on the ground , harder than I normally had , Tabby rushed to me .
Are you okay ? She asked .
I nodded and glanced at the wound on my leg .
Just a scratch , I murmured .
Theres a cave up ahead .
Theres probably a flag in there .
She nodded and together we started towards the direction of the cave .
It took us about 30 minutes to reach the entrance ; it was covered with rocks , leaves , and bushes , so we had to work together to make a clearing to get through .
You think they would really hide something in here ? She asked , glancing around at her surroundings .
Without a doubt , I murmured .
I glanced up into the sky and saw that one of the many drones was following us .
With the drone above us , I knew that Gavin had his eyes on me .
I gave the drone a pointed look just as we cleared the rest of the shrubbery away from the opening ; at least it was enough to wiggle our way through .
I dont like this , Tabby murmured .
I feel like we are walking into a trap .
We dont have a choice , I told her and without another word , I slipped into the dark cave .
