"Where did they go?" Malina's father growled, and her mother gasped, "ARIAN!"
Malina looked around and sighed, "Calm down."
She pointed at a tiny black dot that floated above the couch, "Look."
Her father rushed in and glared at the black dot, "What's this?"
"Arad's beacon." Malina pushed the couch away so they could get into the small dot.
"It is like a magical gate that leads straight into his stomach. Arian should be there now." Malina explained, and her mother glared at the dot with a terrified face. "He ate my little Arian?"
Malina froze, then turned around, "Technically, yes. Actually, no. Arad went there with Arian so they won't destroy the living room."
She reached forward and looked at the dot, "Walk right into it. Like this." She took a few steps forward. The moment she touched the dot, she disappeared as well.
Her parents quickly followed after her.
