章節 46: Summoning the Pythorax

The blaring alarm woke Clary before the sun had even thought to stretch its rays over the horizon. Stretching out her hand to silence it, she hoped to catch a few more minutes, but the flood of messages from Rick and her friends shattered the calm, revealing two devastating incidents.

The two missing students who have vanished were discovered in the forest dead. And as if the tragic news couldn't get any worse, the heart-wrenching news of Joy's life on the verge of death shattered her heart.

"H..how did she get into the forest?" She turned to the internet and saw a video trending. It was Mac, his eyes red and swollen with tears as he spoke to the media. Travis stood beside him, his face drained of all colour.

Mac and Joy left early to let their friends catch up later, but their idyllic trek quickly became a nightmare when a wild wolf suddenly attacked them. They had fled for their lives, but it was too late for Joy.
