Zelo wouldn’t be lying if he said that was the most tired he ever felt in his whole life. He tried everything to be able to leave that hole, but he didn’t succeed so far.

He tried to climb his way up in both his human and wolf forms but there was just no way of climbing the slippery rocks. He then called for help, cried and howled, hoping someone would come and rescue him. After three days of trying, his body was sore and his hands and feet were scraped until they bled.

Not much time passed before Zelo was awakened by the noises of drums and songs. He glanced up and he saw three boys, all of them looking just a
