'Forneus…' Thirteen pondered, while sitting on Blacky's back.
The Nightmare Black Hound wished to accompany Thirteen like old times, so it volunteered to become his mount during their journey.
Actually, Giga wanted to do it as well, but the Blaze Emperor Skunk wasn't meant for desert travels.
Besides, Giga's presence was enough to give Jason, as well as a thousand other Wanderers, PTSD, so having him around would be detrimental to their journey.
Since that was the case, Blacky became Thirteen's mount, making him the envy of the Wanderers around him.
Blacky was now a Rank 8 Sovereign, an existence that was very different from the time he first met Thirteen.
Back then, Blacky hated the teenage boy with a vengeance, but now, they were very close friends who had been through many life and death battles together.
Suddenly, Jar Jar raised his hand, telling everyone to stop on the spot.
"Something is wrong," Jar Jar said with a frown.
"What's wrong?" Roland asked.
