Chapter One // Into the Woods

"Please do tell me, what's so strange about all this?" He leaned against the statue of a leopard that rested behind him.

"Oh, I dunno. Maybe the fact that we're on our way to a city in the middle of the mountains that we aren't even sure exists?"

He tilted his head slightly. "It does exist, though. Finn has shown us, remember?"

"But, you have wings, and a hole in your chest. Is that not strange? He's fast, I can shapeshift. Oh, and that's a moving statue." I countered.

He smiled, clearly amused. Behind him, the stone leopard rumbled softly and closed his eyes.

It was about to be another very, very long night.
