Oleander finished her battle with Tianhuo. This might have been her toughest fight yet against the captain of the guards.
Looking at her partner. She thought, might not have stood a chance without Fred. Fred just hummed and glowed as usual.
This is one book I don't regret reading.
"Well that's four down, who's next?" Oleander asked Fred.
Fred twisted and turned in multiple directions.
"Hmm there is a sheep to the southwest who is a key keeper."
"Really? The sheep chose a champion. This might be interesting." She grinned.
The dark neon pink in her mane glowing with a greater intensity as she thought her dark strategies.

Instead of roaming Fœnum competing for the key, she is doing everything she can to avoid it, but she keeps running into the other Key Seekers. And to make things worse, her puppies’ protective instincts make them formidable fighters. She keeps winning the key! So the other Key Seekers keep tracking her down, picking fights! She’s desperate to find the strength to escape her predicament – but what she doesn’t know is that the one little lamb who had the strength to speak her mind just might have the strength to save the world. - Official Pom Lore

After a few hours Oleander and Fred finally found Pom.
"Surrender your piece to me and no one will get hurt." Oleander said with her most intimidating evil voice.
"oh dear" quivered Pom.
"Unicorn actually" replied Orleander. Amused with her pun, she chuckled to herself.
"........ok" said Pom barely whispering.
"Huh? Can you repeat that?" Oleander asked confused.
" You can have my key pieces" said Pom in a soft but still audio voice. Pom placed her piece on the ground and walked away from it.
Oleander floated the piece to her other pieces, and together they made the key. Fred, finally we can end this. Fred was being silent for some reason. What happened to him.
After walking about 500 hooves towards the predator King's lair, Oleander felt like she was being followed.
Turning around she noticed Pom and her puppies were following her.
"Seems like you have a bit more to deal with before we get there." Fred gleefully chortled.
Oleander turned her head around and looked at Pom. "Why are you following me?", Oleander stated slightly annoyed.
"Can't... go back. Not until Predator Queen is vanquished."
Oleander pondered this... She could not really deny that logic.
"Uggh fine, just make it less obvious if possible."
After some time it was getting dark and they weren't anywhere close to the Predator Queen's lair. Oleander made a simple bedding in the grass. Then she placed Fred under her as a pillow. It seemed she was able to sleep better this way. Perhaps it was his humming or the light he provided.
Oleander was starting to wake up and she felt something resting between her legs. It was Pom, snuggled in close to preserve heat.
Oleander blushed and grumbled.. "Why me?"
It's hard to look menacing with a sheepkin and her puppies nuzzling against her.
After awhile Fred just started laughing... "Mistress, you are defiantly the most scariest warlock now."
"Hush Fred, sometimes it's nice to get these simple small breaks."
Poking Pom with a bit of magic.. "Come on Pom, get off of me."
Pom woke up and got up, her puppies wagging their tails.
Oleander facehooved and started walking towards the Predator Queen's Lair.
It was defiantly going to be a long week. However, is that baaaaad? thought Oleander.
