Chapter 1

Silence was all that Zan heard. Opening his eyes, he sat up and looked around. The dark was all that he saw. He tried to sit up, noticing that there was something heavy on his chest. Looking down, he saw that there were two shadows on top of him, both of them shifting slowly as they began to wake up. "Ugh... my head" One of the shadows began speaking in a gruff voice. "Where are we?" A feminie voice spoke out. "Can you two oafs get off me?" A male voice came out from somewhere in the shadows as a third figure began to make itself visible on top of him. Zan could only move his heads and his right arm, due to it being the only one that wasn't getting squashed, and tried to tap the figures on top of him. They didn't notice and began arguing with one another. Zan sighed and let his arm flop down, before flinching as it hits something that makes a clattering noise. "Shhhh!" One of the shadows said as shifted side to side. "Did you hear that?" It began to get up, letting Zan get a little more air in his lungs as the weight decreased. He reached over and hit the thing again, creating the same sound. "It sounded close!" The Feminie voice cried out, getting off of Zan allowing him more room. He sat up, knocking the last figure down and spooking the others, as he reached over to grab what made the noise. "You guys are heavy... You know that?" Zan's left head said as he pulled the object closer to his eyes, barely able to make it out. "Zan?" The gruff voice called out, moving closer to him as was Zan finally able to make out what the object was. It was his bag! He frantically opened it to see that it was his camera that was making the noise. He was hitting it against his music box. He looked back at the figure and stood up. "Its really dark here, isn't it?" Zan's middle head asked as he fumbled with his bag. "Yeah it is. But where is here?" The third shadow commented as it looked around. "Hold on. It's hard to see whos here." The feminie voice said as it shuffled a bit before a light appeared in front of it. "Turn down the brightness of that thing!" Zan looked over and saw that it was Writ who said it, as he was still on the floor. Scaro was next to him and tried to pick him up, only to get his hand pushed away from him as the wolf stood up on his own. Esme was the one hold the light, which turned out to be her phone. "Where are we?" Zan asked as he turned around and looked around, seeing rocks and a few bushes everywhere. Everyone looked around, finally seeing the area that they were in. All of them turned back to look at one another, noticing that some of them had bruises and cuts. Scaro sighed as he looked up. "Looks like there's no going back is there?" "It doesn't look like it." They began to ask one another questions as Zan looked in his bag and pulled out a first aid kit and a water bottle. "Is anyone thirsty?" He asked, taking their attention away from one dilemma and adding another one into the mix. "Where the hell are we gonna find food or water?" Writ yelled out. "How the hell does anyone prepare for this crazy shit to happen?" He looked at Zan who had the water bottle held out. "I didn't prepare for this... Its just what I brought with me and what I bought at the store." Zan replied and offered the bottle to Scaro, who took it and began to drink from it. Zan rooted around his bag and pulled out his camera and turned it on and activating the flash. Zan then felt the bottle touch his left head's cheek, causing it to turn around to see Scaro holding the bottle out. "Thanks." He said as Zan took the bottle back and moved to put it back in his bag when Writ walked over and snatched the bottle and began to drink from it. Zan right head starred at the wolf as his left head watched Esme come over. "You got any food in there?" She asked, getting his right head to look at her. Zan's middle head continued to search the bag and sighed. "No... There's no food in here" Zan's right looked at the vixen in apology and zipped the bag up. "Here's your water back." Writ said as he tossed it towards Zan who caught it and held it up to the light. "We're down to half..." He remarked and offered it to Esme who shook her head. "No thanks, i'm not thirsty at the moment." She said as she pointed her light around. "Where's you guys phones? I'm not gonna waste my battery on being our only light source" She said as she flashed the light at their faces. "Mine was charging. And Zan doesn't have a phone" Scaro said as he sits goes over to Esme and looks at her phone's battery. "You don't have a phone?" Writ looked at the hybrid who looked away as their ears flattened in embarrassment. "My parents didn't want me to show off the fact that I was a hybrid... I have a camera though!" Zan says, holding up the camera smiling. "Where's your phone?" Esme asked looking at the canine. "I don't have to tell you!" He said, his voice rising in tone. "I just asked you a question! You don't have to shout at me!" She yelled back as Scaro and Zan looked at them. They both sighed as Zan continued to look through his bag. "What else is there?" Scaro asked him while moving closer to the hybrid. "Nothing much... Just some clothes and a few batteries for my cam-" Zan froze as all of his ears perked up, the faint sound of paw steps padding against the ground. "Guys?" His first head asked, which was ignored by the two arguing "Guys?!" His third head said a bit louder, getting the attention of Scaro, whose ears perked up as well. He turned towards the other two and shouted "Shut up!". Both canines looked at him and fell silent. With them all silent, they all began to hear the movement. They all began looking around as Esme shined her light around the area. "Keep your light on one direction!" Writ whispered. A low growl emitted from the cave that was above the Furs. "Yeogiseo mwohaneungeoya?.... (What are you doing down here?....)" The voice is followed by a tall beast that is currently baring its fangs. "I-It's a Dra-ac.." Says Zans third head. "A what?" Esme asked, confused at the sudden appearance of creatures. "A Draac... My parents had books that had stories about them." Zan began to explain as they slowly huddled closer together. "But I looked searched other books for any saying about them, but it only said that they were a race from long ago." The Draac was slender, and had a huge Pair of horns emitting from the head, with a long light green mane that followed to the mid end of the tail. The Ears showed gauges and an industrial in the middle of the ear opening, with blue splotched markings that were on both eyes. Protruding from its mouth, were two Large Teeth, the one in front being bigger than the other. "Naneun dangsin-ege mul-eossda. yeogiseo mwo haeyo? ...(I asked you. What are you doing here?...)". Esme looked at the beast in fear. "I think she's speaking a d-different language..." The Draac looked at the Vixen, and tilted its head before speaking again. "Oh, so you speak English." Esme nodded, afraid as the Dracc studied her under it's piercing gaze. "Do you all speak English?" The group looked at one another before nodding. "What are you doing here?" They asked, scowling, as two other smaller, but still big Draac's appeared by her side, not moving another muscle until the Bigger one's say so. Zan's Right head piped up pointing upwards. "We fell down from there..." The Draac softened her scowl as she looked at the Cerberus, finally taking notice of him and froze, her face changing to shock. "A hybrid... it can't be.." The Dracc spoke softly, as Scaro held Zan closer and felt the Cerberus shiver. The Draac lowered herself all the way on the ground, moving cautiously closer to the group, making the group shake like the earthquake itself. Then, the Draac spoke. "Now calm down. I'm not going to do any harm to you unless you have done something to anger me. Of which you haven't." Zan's Right head spoke up, following the Dracc's movement with his eyes. "We mean no harm... We all fell after a large earthquake that happened." The Draac nodded her head. "That would explain the rumbles, and the new caves that opened up. I expect you all are lost down here?" Esme and Zan nodded as Writ scoffed, mumbling something about finding their own way around before Esme smacked him on his head. Scaro stood up to face the Draac. "Yes ma'am..." The Draac nodded before standing up and turning around. "Well then. Let's get you to the Tribe. Glitch. Nova. Help them up through the caves and tunnels. I'll make sure that we aren't followed by anything." They nodded and she left, leaving them with Glitch and Nova who came forward and placed themselves on either side of the group. "Come. We must go." Glitch said motioning the four forward. They looked at each other, confused on whether to follow them or to make a break for it. Zan's heads sighed, and then he took a step forward. Scaro looked at him before moving forward as well. Esme and Wirt looked at each other before following. Glitch and Nova looked around at the shadows and glared at them before leaving the area. As they left, the shadows began to rustle and whisper with on another, their voices carrying across the cave.
