My friends and I jumped through the portal just before it closed. We came out on the other side in the dark forest, although we weren’t in the same location like the other times when I went through portals.

As we slowly sat up and got our bearings, Luke was the first to stand quickly and look around.

“I think I have a pretty good idea of where we are,” he said, pacing around. It was dark, so I flipped on the flashlight on my phone and stood. We didn’t seem to be in any particular location of note; it was nothing but forest all around. I was a bit amazed that Luke was able to tell where we were, because to me it looked like nothing but pine trees.

“Do you know which direction we need to go in?” I asked, to which Luke nodded and pointed ahead of us. “Let’s go, then. We don’t have time to lose.”

Lori, Jessica and Matt all nodded and followed. Luke walked at the front of the group alongside me as he guided us through the dark woods. I had no idea where we were going, but Luke seemed pretty sure of himself and I assumed that we would eventually find the Alpha King’s mansion.

I wasn’t sure exactly what I would do if we found Enzo and Selena. Admittedly, I hadn’t thought much about it ahead of time. I was so preoccupied with preparing for our excursion and subsequently opening a portal that I didn’t spend the time to make a plan, and now it was very possible that we could stumble upon Enzo and Selena at any moment.

the woods was slow. The darkness fell on us like a heavy blanket, and the canopy of trees was so thick that the light from the full moon only broke through at random intervals. Even our flashlights were only useful for a few feet in front of us, and none of us wanted to waste our batteries so early on in the journey. Not only that, but Luke kept making it extremely clear that having too many flashlights could give away our location to people who we might have wanted to be hiding from,

During that trip, Enzo had dazed everyone and made them go back to sleep so they wouldn’t remember, but the truth of what really happened did eventually come out when I told my friends everything after I escaped from Edward’s lair.
