Demonic Heroes

Ch 24: Breaking Fears

Oam held onto Snugglemagne tighter, Snugglemagne holding Oam close.
'I'm not letting some monster hurt him." Snugglemagne kept an eye on his

doppleganger. The shapeshifter chuckled, growing into a full on laugh.

"You know, it's funny," The shapeshifter said. "A fellow shifter," It pointed at Oam, the

smirk on its face starting to fall. "Cares about, might I even say, loves a king lion." It quickly

yanked Oam out of Snugglemagne's grip by the collar. Snugglemagne ran up to the

shapeshifter, only to be thrown back into the mist.

"Snugglemagne! Let me GO!" Oam struggled, trying to get out of the creature's grip. It

quickly slammed him into a wall, knocking the air out of him. "M-Mao Mao?" Oam looked behind

the shapeshifter in horror, watching as limbs from the shifter grab Mao Mao, Badgerclops, and

Adorabat by the neck. "...Please, help."

"Heheh, that's not happening, traitor."

Snugglemagne's POV:

Where's Oam? Where's that disgusting monster? I... oh god no. A fire surrounded me, it

threatening to burn my fur. Oh please, please. Anything but this. I don't want to get burned!

Please, please, PLEASE! ANYTHING BUT THIS! I fall to my knees, gripping at my hair. Help

me... please.

"HELP!!!" Wait, Oam! I shot my head up looking for him. Where is h- wait, I remember

this. The flames were what I saw last time the mist affected me. I... I know what to do. I reach

for the flames, fear running through me. I bite my lip.

"OAM!!!"
