This time the clones where throughly confused. They seemed to rummage around the tunnels actually trying to move and touch things even though they were not as physical as they looked. They looked to each other and a wolf version shrugged its shoulders to show he was unclear too. A dragon nearby snapped it's jaws. They were no where near the boy. The water had thrown off his scent, and the tunnel's echo had hidden which way he had gone sound wise. For the first time the boy had managed to escape the clones easily. This was good. The father was proud.
A smile decorated his face to show this as his clones continued on their search coming up with nothing more then wild guesses. Finally the clones started to disappear one by one. Each one disappearing with a crack and a burst of light as Razor let them go. The last one let out a long howl to allow the boy to know he had won. The hunt was over and then it too disappeared like the others. The tunnels began to shimmer and faded from reality as the man stood smiling. "Very good," he said. "Very, very good. You learn really quickly. Now remember the only time you'll need to use this skill is if something happens to me or you are alone and feel threatened."
He hoped neither would come to pass, but it was always a possibility he had to keep his son well trained just in case. "Now since I picked this game, what other game would you like to play? We could just do some training if you want. Or we could practice magic?"
