The group decided to run where they came from, trying to find shelter along the way, but saw nothing. The noise became quiet for a second, which made Adam stop in his tracks, then, through a chain reaction, everyone stopped, but the cat whimpered.
"We have to keep moving," Nova said, looking at the cat. "We can't stop now. Whatever is coming towards us is just trying to lure us in; we can't fall for it. We're better than that."
"I agree, sorry for disrupting the motion," Adam said, though Nova didn't mind. He would have done the same thing if the cat-like creature hadn't been there.
"Alright, let's keep moving. Whatever that thing is, it's clearly out of our rank, so let's try not to injure ourselves and be trapped in this realm, which we don't even know thoroughly about."
Everyone nodded, running away. The guttural noise had stopped, but the cat grew more scared, trying to escape Nova's grasp, but halted itself as it realized that it was still in the clear, but not for long.
