The following afternoon, Vivi drove along the winding highway. The road hugged the mountainside. Leaves fluttered in the breeze. The road was dappled with the shadows of trees and blowing leaves. As she drove along, the tension in her stomach knotted tighter and tighter. She hadn’t told anyone she was coming out here, but she was determined to find Chris herself. She didn’t think he would hurt her, but she wanted to talk to him. Heath had told her where he and Daniel had gone searching the other day, so she knew she was looking for an old overgrown road that led into the forest. In her years growing up in Painter, she and Sophia had explored almost every nook and cranny in the mountains surrounding Painter. She recalled this old logging property from back when Daniel’s grandfather was actively working on the land. She’d hated seeing the barren sections of land, absent of trees. She’d been relieved when they’d stopped logging. It had been years since she’d explored over on this side of town, but she knew where to look. The overgrown road was right where she remembered. She turned into it slowly. Broken branches and foliage cued her it was the right road since Heath and Daniel had driven through here already.

She followed their tire tracks to where they must have parked in a small clearing. The clearing had once held a few temporary buildings where the heavy duty logging equipment was stored. She climbed out of her car and paused beside it. The autumn air was chilly, its scent crisp and refreshing. The forest rose tall around the edges of the clearing. She walked through the clearing and into the trees. Sunlight fell through the trees, slanting rays of light brightening the forest. She held still for a moment and then shifted. Power whipped through her. In seconds, she stretched in her cat form. The soft breeze ruffled through her fur. She stood tall and sniffed the air, hoping to catch any hint of Chris nearby. No luck. She scented nothing other than the earthy hint of autumn and leaves blowing on the breeze.

She glanced around and started running slowly through the forest. She recalled there were some caves in an area a few miles from here. She didn’t know where Chris might be hiding out, but she figured she’d start where he could find shelter. She wove through the trees, picking up speed as she moved. A pair of squirrels chattered at her from a tree as she passed by them.

The terrain became rockier as she ascended deeper into the mountains. She moved quickly and quietly, her senses attuned to any changes around her. As she approached the area where the caves were, a gust of wind blew through the trees. She scented another shifter. Coming to an abrupt stop, she waited quietly. A crow called nearby. A chipmunk scampered across the ground in front of her, pausing to stare at her for a moment before dashing between two boulders.
