[Novel] The Mirror [Chapter 3 (2/3)]

"I don't know, I can't think, let's make my mind clear first by not inhaling this damn dust! RETREAT!"

Myungwoo and Bonhwa are running away from those tiny creatures but they don't give up by just letting the two of them run away. They can hear the sharp high tone sound they make - quite sound as annoying as imp's but more lively - behind them as they run. 

"THEY CHASE US!" screamed Bonhwa, who was running behind Myungwoo.

But suddenly, without Bonhwa realizing what just happened, he suddenly hopped on the ground between the rather dark dense forest. The trees look taller in front of him, even the grass too. He just knows that he just turned into his hare form. And there is another good thing: he can see clearly now - just maybe, Bonhwa thinks, the dust can't affect him if he is in his animal form. 

Bonhwa turned around and jumped to the nearest creature and screamed in shock. They seem angry and throw dust to Bonhwa - but he is correct, nothing can affect him. It looks like his strategy is correct, now the creature is focusing on him and Myungwoo is jumping away. 

"Myungwoo!"

Myungwoo can feel his mind is working better now and he sees Sungmi and Daesun are running towards him. 

"Princess! I don't know what's just attacking me and Bonhwa! It's tiny, it can fly and throw colorful dust!"

"That's a fairy! But I don't expect they could attack people except... oh no way. We should find their leader then. But... where is Bonhwa?"

"Where is Bonhwa?" Myungwoo asked the same question as he turned around and found there was no Bonhwa behind him.

"Did you leave him?" Daesun asked while running past Myungwoo.
