## Eber’s POV

Just recently I became one of the guardian members of Alex’s coven.

Despite all the experience, I am nervous.

What if I’m not ready?

What if I end up embarrassing myself when I need to be leader?

“You okay kid?”

I turn, and the source of the voice is Alex, who is following behind me.

“Well um, yeah…I *guess.”* I say. “I’m just nervous. Ever since I became a guardian, I’ve been overthinking things.”

“Not everything is perfect.” Alex says. “Becoming a guardian, a coven leader wasn’t easy for me either. Just know that someone is always there to help if you need it.”

I close my eyes, and my mind is flooded with images of a distant town being ravaged, and its inhabitants running amok.

”I had a vision.” I say. “Of a village being attacked. I think Anubis came back.”

”Since he’s back.” Alex says. “We’ll be there. We always are.”

I get up from the stool I sit on, lean slightly on my crutches, and walk past her. “Then I have to be ready. Perhaps I should notify the others.”

*I have to save everyone, anyone. No matter what it takes.*

## Alex's POV

Walking past every building, apartment, lab, and sign, the sun, with the appearance of a dimly lit candle, slowly rises above the horizon, taking its sweet time. I'm about to enter my apartment, when I feel someone tap me on the shoulder. It's Eli, with her wavy brown hair buzzed underneath. She wears a dark purple hoodie. black pants, lether boots, and has a small satchel slung around one shoulder.

"Eli..." I say, turning around sharply to face her. "You frightened me."

"My apologies." she says. "Alex...I got a message from the Star Wolf elders, as well as some spirits in the stars. They were premonitions."

"Eber had them as well." I say. "I think something bad is happening. We'll have to travel far away to get there."

*The trip will be worth it*. Eli replies. *However, I need to consult with the other oracles first, so that we can predict the safest route to that town without putting ourselves in more danger than there already is*.

"Sounds like a good idea." I say.

"Follow me." Cyrus emerges from the shadows, and takes Eber’s hand. Ana, Juno and Luna materialize in front of me.

"We know two inhabitants from that village." Luna says. "They are oracle apprentices. Perhaps they can give us a little info on what happened, because visions and premonitions don't always tell the full story."

I hear footsteps, and the forms that materialize in front of me are two children, both cats. One has gray fur with orange splotches, and the other is shorter, with messy hair and darker fur, but both share the same overall white color.

"They are old friends of mine." Cyrus says. "Mama took them in years ago after they lost their own family to a raid by Anubis and Darcy. This was after she had been revealed to have bad intentions.

"I'm Benny." One of them says.

"And I'm Ruby or Ru." the other finishes.

"It's nice to meet you." I say. "Come with me."

”But one question.” Ru asks, facing Alex. “Will Eber help us find this village?”

”Hate to break it to you two but I can’t exactly help you yet. I don’t know where this village is.” Eber says. “*However* I do know people who do.”
