"What do you mean there isn't a key!" Terrance yelled. "I said there isn't a key! I've looked everywhere in this area and it isn't here!" Luna shouted back. "Maybe you-" Terrance's eyes widened and he didn't seem to care about the argument anymore.

"Nothing more to say hmmm? That's what I-" Luna stopped as she heard a low growl echo behind her. Luna slowly turned to see a wolf that had dull gray eyes and you could see his rib cage under its matted pelt. And this wolf definitely looked a lot meaner than the wolves in the forest. Around it's neck was a collar mangled collar that was holding the key.

The wolf growled and stepped closer.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Luna asked Terrance. He simply nodded and they sprinted off into the darkness with the wolf snapping at their heels.

They ran and ran through the catacombs almost running into walls a couple of times, but this time they did run into wall with no where to go. They reached a dead end.

Terrance reached for his dagger but Luna stopped him. She walked towards the growling wolf and knelt in front of it.

"Luna!" Terrance yelled, but she just ignored him.

Luna slowly set her hand on its snout and the blue mist surrounded her arm and the wolf. The wolf's eyes changed to a grey-ish blue and he placed his forehead against Luna and whined. His eyes met Luna's filled with sadness and regret. "Shhh, it's alright. It wasn't you." Luna said softly.

Luna stood up and the wolf shook off the collar and placed it in Luna's hand. "Thank you, do you know your way back into the forest? Luna asked the wolf. The wolf nodded and bowed slighty before turning away and walking into the darkness.

"I didn't know you could be so polite."

"Shut up Terrance."

The two walked back into the dark finally able to leave the catacombs.

After Luna and Terrance wandered for a bit they finally got to the place they split up at. From there they sprinted to where the the door was. But when they got there, A figure was standing in front of the door.

As it stepped into the light Luna could see it clearly.

It was a man with blood red eyes wearing a crown with a blood red gem in the center.

The man gave a sadistic grin as he raised his hand. Red wisps swirled around his arm and charged towards her and Terrance. Luna started to feel nauseous and she fell to her knees.

She weakly turned her head to see Terrance unconscious.

The last thing she heard before she passed out was a deep menacing voice say; "night, night Moon Queen."
