  "Why....can't she just TAKE us to whoever this guy is?" Max wondered.

  Matthew wheezed. "I know, right?"

  The boys finished talking to him about what else the witch has told them.

  "It's starting with you, Max. That's why we have to move, quickly before time runs out."

  Max's shock caused him to be speechless.

  Zack ushered them to keep moving.

  The darkness in the sky was slowly making its presense known. The three friends found a spot under a thick tree to nestle down for the night.

  Max's head filled with worry as he tried to fall asleep.

  He forced the voices in his mind to stop talking, until he finally was able to lull himself to sleep.
