"Where are Dax and Brother Chester? How are they?" he asked loudly. Darryl was so worried that he started to sweat.
"Their conditions are critical," Rachel said softly; she was shy and dared not look at Darryl. "I know where they are; I can bring you there."
"Great, we'll leave now." Darryl nodded.
"Mister, I will go with you..."
"Darryl, I am coming too."
Two voices echoed from behind him—they were Debra and Jewel.
Darryl nodded but did not say a word. So, Rachel led the way, and she took them to the volcano crater.
Along the journey, Darryl was distraught. He continued to rush Rachel to move faster.
Rachel was furious when he rushed her, but she appeared agreeable.
Finally, they arrived at the crater's entrance.
As Darry stood there, he was amazed by the scene in front of him.
The volcano crater was huge—its diameter was more than ten-kilometer wide! The depth was beyond one's imagination. He could also see the boiling lava in the crater.
"Where are Dax and Chester?" Darryl asked impatiently.
Rachel pointed toward the volcano crater in front of her. "Right there."
Darryl rushed toward the edge of the crater without any hesitation. He looked around with furrowed brows, but there was no sign of Dax and Chester.
"Where are they?" Darryl turned and asked hurriedly.
Then, a shadow appeared and charged toward him quickly.
"Die, Darryl!"
It was Ewan. He had hidden at the place for quite some time. Then he appeared and hit Darryl's back with his fist!
