An Hour of Need
“In spite of our hideout having been discovered, Horatio suggested we stay in the same cave and wait for Lucas, to avoid delays in him and our new recruits finding us. We shouldn’t be waiting long anyway, given Lucas’ supernatural speed.
But then my grandma Sofia countered, “Hopefully the IBSI doesn’t have any witches hanging around nearby who might close the portal in the meantime. That would delay things for us a lot.”
“That’s a good point,” Derek replied. “Maybe we should set up close...r to the gate then, to keep an eye on it. Horatio?”
“Hm,” Horatio said, stroking his jaw. “Yes. That might be a better idea. Then we’ll have to stay alert for the others returning through it, so we don’t miss each other.”
Horatio transported us away from the cave and landed us in the treetops, almost directly above the portal. We tried to settle down and make ourselves somewhat comfortable as we waited, but I could hardly sit still for a moment.MoreLess
