Adrianna had completely forgotten about that. She looked at Dmitri who became immediately concerned while Fleur was confused.

"What about the full moon night? Fleur asked, looking questionably at Ed.

​​

Ed remained silent and ignored Fleur's question. Then, he said, "If you like, you can come here during that time. In my opinion, you should be safe here…"

Adrianna nodded and the trio left. Dmitri covered the entrance with the rock. Fleur once again lit up her wand and used it to lead the way while they headed down the stairs. The opening was inconspicuous and Fleur had to once again use her magic to open it. The tiny green leaves surrounding the opening moved again, exposing the small entrance. The trio walked out of the opening one by one and walked until they crossed through the charmed territory and back towards the place where they had arrived at through the portal.

They must have only walked a few feet when the skies above turned grey and thunder and lightning proceeded. Black clouds sprawled across the sky, billowing in from the south. Their grey colored glare drained the color of the jungle beneath and blemished the glistening leaves that were becoming drenched in the rain. The scent of rain was strong. The trees were loudly rustling due to the heavy gusts of wind. A streak of silver light split the sky in half and touched the ground with a deafening boom. In the next second, the lightning cut zig zags through the dark clouds above. Just when Adrianna's eyes became adjusted to the darkness around her, she saw a brilliant flash in front of her, revealing a shadow of a man.

"Hide behind that tree!" shouted Fleur at the two of them before jumping behind it herself.

"What is happening?" asked Dmitri.

"It seems someone has found out about the movement in the charmed jungle and in the foothills of the mountains. It seems to be that someone has come to hunt us," said Fleur.

"Yes, I saw his shadow in the lightning," added Adrianna. "How far do we have to go until you can create a portal?" she asked Fleur.

"I can create a portal here, but if I do, it will attract attention," she replied, wondering if they were completely in a bind.

They waited a little more in order to see who the mystery person was, but the rain was coming down so hard that the visibility was low. Fleur felt that this was not the time to procrastinate.

"I want to see who it is Adrianna," said Fleur, becoming curious.

"No!" said Adrianna sharply. They could have easily gone out to attack the person who was there, but that would attract the attention of others. Who knows how many of them are lurking around?

"Then do we keep hiding here and wait for our own doom?" asked Fleur, becoming both impatient and agitated.

Suddenly, there was a rustle of leaves and some movement. All of them become quiet and stood still without breathing. Only the sound of the rain could be heard. Another flash burned through the sky and the area was lit up for a few seconds.

From her hiding space, Fleur could see a wizard on his broom through a bunch of leaves. He was frantically looking around to search for the movement that his informant had reported. Fleur remembered that he was one of Cy's men who had defected to be on Cy's side. Fleur held her breath as she watched him because he had come very close to them.

He scanned the jungle in front of him and started to move amongst the dense bushes, cutting them with the knife he had in his hand. His knife was sharp and was cutting through thick stems like butter. When he had cut through a good amount in one direction, he turned around and started cutting through the plants in the other direction.

When he turned around, the first thing Adrianna did was to cast an invisibility spell around the three of them. "Invidespectus," she whispered as the spell immediately took effect. Then, she closed her eyes and focused on the coppery light inside her stomach. She brought a thin thread outside and opened her eyes. Her eyes had become golden yellow. The change in atmosphere around Adrianna frightened Fleur. She had never been up close enough to see Adrianna's change in eye color before.

In a low voice, Adrianna ordered, "When I say so, open the portal."

"Okay," she agreed.

Adrianna closed her eyes and slowly lifted her hand in front of her. She curled it into a fist and then brought it close to her heart. She quietly kept it there for a second before suddenly throwing her fist out towards the west. There was a loud boom in that direction as a bolt of lightning escaped from the clouds and hit the ground below.
