We were just leaving the kingdom when we heard Ice's voice, "So you're still going to follow me?" We all looked toward the wall to find Ice leaning against the left side of the gate, hidden from those within the wall, staring down. Kitty was perched on top of the wall watching us.
"Is that a bad thing?" I asked. Ice simply shook his head no then nodded. Why does he have to be so confusing?
Invent smiled, "King Alphonse said to tell you that he knows you didn't mean for it to happen and that he trusts you completely with his son." Ice looked a bit shocked before lightly smiling.
"He and Bane always were the more forgiving ones." Ice whispered before giving his head a light shake, "If you plan on coming with me then let's go." He started walking toward the north, so we followed him. After a while we ran into the first signs of something terrible happening.

"These footprints are huge?" Prince questioned as he knelt beside the massive footprint. Ice seemed to be on edge.
"We shouldn't linger here for too long." Ice spoke quietly.
"I agree with Ice. We should move on before what made those footprints finds us." Kraken spoke in her quiet voice.
"Why? What made them? I've never even heard of anything that leaves footprints that big." Invent asked, using a whisper.
Ice shook his head, silently telling us that he wasn't going to tell us when Prince whispered, "Either a giant or a troll!" He looked up at us, "My father once told me inside of his old fairytales that giants and trolls had big feet and naturally leave big footprints. If the fairytale about the Darkest Hour was true than the creatures inside the story would be as well, right?"
Ice thought for a second before he finally nodded, "Yes but I don't know which one it is and I...I didn't want to frighten you." I shivered and saw Invent start looking around concernedly.
"D-Do you think it's still here?" She asked.
Ice shrugged, "If it is then we need to stay quiet and keep moving." I was about to ask just how much danger this mission of ours was going to put us in when the answer came to kill us.
