Tristan didn't want Zhen-Zhen to stay up late. Since she's pregnant, she needed to sleep early.
After playing the last round of the board game, Zhen-Zhen and Tristan said good night to Andrew and Alveena.
They proceeded to their room. Upon entering inside, they heard Pam-Pam's meowing voice.
"Meow! Meow! Meow!"
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen smiled as they saw Pam-Pam. When FaMo got sealed inside the crystal, Pam-Pam continued staying in their room, just watching the frozen fireball inside the crystal.
Zhen-Zhen and Tristan assumed that Pam-Pam could understand that FaMo was inside the crystal, that's why she kept on staring at it whenever she was inside their room.
Pam-Pam ate dinner with them in the dining hall. After she was done, she went back to their room to check on FaMo.
Though she was a cat, it seemed that Pam-Pam could understand that something happened at the crystal. She could no longer see the frozen black fireball nor the crystal that was placed on the bedside table.
That's the reason Pam-Pam kept on meowing. The rectangular barrier Zhen-Zhen created to enclose the crystal was long gone.
Zhen-Zhen and Tristan hadn't noticed it yet since their attention was focused on Pam-Pam.
Zhen-Zhen bent down to scoop Pam-Pam in her arms. Pam-Pam continued meowing as if she wanted to tell them something.
"Meow! Meow! Meow!"
"Hey, Pam-Pam, are you still hungry?" Tristan asked Pam-Pam. He petted her head. Then he turned to Zhen-Zhen.
"Wifey, are we allowing Pam-Pam to sleep with us tonight?"
Zhen-Zhen nodded her head with a smile. "I missed FaMo so I want Pam-Pam to be with us."
"Meow! Meow! Meow!"
Pam-Pam continued meowing as she heard FaMo's name. She jumped out of Zhen-Zhen's hand and moved closer to the bedside table.
Pam-Pam wanted to tell Zhen-Zhen and Tristan that FaMo and the crystal were no longer there.
Zhen-Zhen and Tristan moved their gazes, following Pam-Pam's movement across the room. When she stopped near the bedside table, that was the time they noticed that FaMo and the crystal were missing.
"Wifey… father-in-law and the crystal… they are gone!" Tristan mumbled in shock when he saw the empty top of the bedside table.
Zhen-Zhen fell silent, her eyes focused on the table. She didn't say a word. She just walked over to inspect the table.
She could tell that the barrier also disappeared. "What happened here? Where's FaMo?"
Zhen-Zhen's heart started racing inside her chest. She was worried about FaMo.
"No way. This can't be happening. FaMo was still here the last time I checked this evening. I saw it. The crystal was still here when I got out of the shower and joined you in the dining area."
Tristan held Zhen-Zhen's by the shoulders. She almost lost her balance because of the shock.
FaMo had disappeared along with the crystal. Zhen-Zhen couldn't take it if something bad happened to FaMo.
Sensing that Zhen-Zhen was filled with anxiety, Miho, the orange fire dragon, came out of her body and talked to Zhen-Zhen.
Tristan guided her on the bed as they sat down on the edge facing Miho.
"Zhen-Zhen, are you okay? I felt that you were bothered by something. I can feel your negative emotions. What happened?" Miho asked her worriedly.
Zhen-Zhen gazed up to meet Miho's eyes. Miho could see the helplessness in her blue eyes.
"Miho, FaMo disappeared. I don't know where he is right now. The crystal… it's gone."
Zhen-Zhen felt like crying. Tristan rubbed her back, comforting her. He was also worried about FaMo but he didn't know how he could help them. He couldn't explain how the crystal suddenly disappeared.
If FaMo was able to break the crystal by himself then he should have been there inside the room, waiting for them. But there was no sign of FaMo.
Meanwhile, Miho found it strange when she didn't see the crystal. After a few seconds, her eyes lit up as she remembered something.
"Master!" Miho called Zhen-Zhen master again as she got excited.
"Not master, Miho," Zhen-Zhen still corrected her.
"I mean, Zhen-Zhen. I forgot to tell you but I sensed something when you were in the dining room. I'm not sure about it. But now I confirmed it."
"What is it, Miho?" Tristan asked the orange fire dragon expectantly.
"The seal got broken as if something from the inside broke it. I think it was FaMo! The black fire dragon. However, I found it strange when I felt a movement as if someone was there and suddenly disappeared using teleportation."
"I don't know what happened next but I am sure that someone broke the crystal and left the house after that. It might be FaMo."
"He is alive! I am certain!"
Zhen-Zhen just remained silent. Tristan was the one who spoke up.
"If he is FaMo then why did he leave the house without showing himself to us?"
Miho moved her head from left to right. She had no idea as well. Only FaMo knew the reason.
"Miho, can you track his current location now?" Zhen-Zhen asked her with urgency in her voice. She wouldn't feel at ease without confirming that FaMo was just fine and safe.
Miho tried to concentrate, tracking FaMo's location by scanning his magical aura. She felt weird since she couldn't connect with FaMo. But she didn't want Zhen-Zhen to become more worried so she didn't mention it.
She tried again, tracking his location and communicating with FaMo's subconscious. But she got nothing. She could only see the remnant of his energy. It was faint and very weak.
"How is it, Miho? Did you find him?" Zhen-Zhen asked her again with eyes filled with concern.
"I'm sorry. I have difficulties finding his location right away. I think I have to check it step by step. I can sense some remnants of his aura. I can follow them to find out his current location."
Zhen-Zhen stood up. "Miho, you can't go around flying like this in your dragon form. In this world, you need a disguise. It's either you transform into an animal or a human."
"I understand, Zhen-Zhen. So what should I do?"
"You can transform into a dog… just like how FaMo transformed into a cat," Tristan suggested to Miho.
Miho: "..."
'Me… a dragon transforming into a dog???!'
