The three Champions met in Mike’s room, where serious discussions immediately began about locating the Portal Room. Apollo hadn’t really expected Vera to fall so easily for Quinn’s charms, especially after she had just arrived back with him, but he couldn’t really blame her. Hadn’t he found himself under the woman’s spell himself?

“Gavin got a reading about this area,” Apollo explained to the two shifters. The tension was high amongst them all; each of them seemed to be silently battling to be the one in charge, even though for the time being everyone deferred to Apollo because he had the most information on the portals.

“So, the Portal Room should be around here somewhere, right?” Mike asked, crossing his arms tightly in front of his chest.

“We have to follow the readings to know for sure,” Apollo said. “I thought maybe Frank’s wolf shifter abilities would help us to sniff out the trail.”

“Very funny,” Frank mumbled. “But yeah, I can help with that.”

“You know, if there is anything that requires tunneling, that’s something that we specialized in at Oak Mountain. We’re a big mining community. I could have a couple of guys down here in no time at all.”

“That would be great,” Apollo said, his mind working quickly to put the pieces of the plan together. “Once we know exactly where this Portal Room is supposed to be, we can create a tunnel system that leads right to it. We don’t know if this place is underground or what. All we know is that it has something to do with this area.”

“The serpent mound?”

Apollo nodded. “Yes.”

Mike and Frank exchanged looks and then turned to Apollo, waiting for his direction.

“We are going to drive out there first. Once we have the place scouted out a bit, then Mike will know what exactly to tell the bear shifters on Oak Mountain. The kind of equipment they will need to bring and all that. We must get this done quickly, and we can’t be trailed. Everything has to remain secret. You know the cost of letting any of the details slip.”

“Sudden death,” Frank joked, though his face was serious.

“It would be worse than that,” Apollo muttered. “Sudden would probably be a mercy. You have no idea what these creatures are capable of.”

The reminder spurned Apollo forward. “Come on, let’s get going. There isn’t any time to lose.”

The trio piled into Apollo’s van and headed out.

“Mike, you take this and sit up front with me. We’re going to be looking for where the signal is the strongest. But don’t let anyone see what you have. Keep it in this bag, all right?”

Apollo handed Mike a bag and revved up the engine. “Is it supposed to be blinking like this?” Mike asked, peering into the bag, his face drawn in concern.

“It will blink occasionally, but you’ll know when it’s found what we’re looking for. There should also be a noise, but at a frequency only shifter species can hear.”

“Ugh, really not looking forward to that,” Frank mumbled.

“That’s why I had Mike do this part,” Apollo retorted.
