Others,he said, frowning as he searched his mastered vocabulary for the right words.
Small and black. Pups?There were other cubs in Blackfeather Woods, Anansi knew that, but he didn't think they looked like these little shadowy apparitions. There was definitely something kind of weird about these wolves. They seemed to shift at the edges a little, like smudges. He frowned, crinkling the dark dots over his eyes into little black lines, and added,
they follow us.
Ena had an explanation, of course. The tree was poison, she told him, and poison made you see things that weren't there.
Pups are not there?he asked, squinting at them as if daring them to disappear. They didn't.
Why's it poe... poison?There were even more of them now. Anansi wasn't sure where they came from; he'd been watching them the whole time, and he didn't remember seeing any more arrive, yet now there were seven or eight shadow pups, all watching them. As he continued to watch them, one of the pups began to melt down onto the ground.
Hey!he exclaimed, starting forward and then stumbling back with a faltering tail as two more shadow pups began to melt into black puddles. He cast a frantic look at Maegi; what should they do?
