Following His Dream
A/N This just popped into my head. Arctus feels lonely without his parents but they're busy with their band but he feels alone but he has his own dreams...
Prologue
Snowgre was excited as he was packing up his things in his room in his cousin's swamp. Arctic Fury the band he'd started with Artie and his wife Snowflake were taking off but there was one little thing he had to take care of.
He saw his and Snowflake's son Arctus playing with Shrek's triplets.
He had emerald eyes like his father, snow white fur, slender and very playful and curious like any other five year old.
"You okay Snowg?" Shrek asked his twenty year old cousin.
"Y-Yeah I'm fine.
It's just Arctus.
I can't take him with us because that's not the kind of life for him.
I feel bad for doing this to him." Snowgre told him.
"But you're not.
You're helping him by leaving him here with Fiona and me and the triplets.
Does he know?" Shrek reassured him.
The twenty year old smiled shakily at that.
"Yeah I guess." he told him as the tour bus pulled up and Artie's friend was driving.
"Let's go!" Snowflake called from the bus.
"I guess this is it.
Give Arctus this for me, okay?" he told him handing him a box.
"Sure Snowg." Shrek answered him seeing him leave.
He sighed seeing the look in those young emerald eyes as Arctus watched the bus leave.
It nearly broke his heart.
Arctus had tried running after the bus but stopped by Fiona.
"Mommy, Daddy wait!
Don't leave me!" he said crying. Fiona felt sorry for him. Snowgre hadn't explained things to Arctus, that they were doing it because they cared about him and wanted what was best for him.
"Really?
My mommy and Daddy still want me?" Arctus asked her.
"Yes they do.
They wanted you to grow up happy and loved.
The scene they're in...... well doesn't allow time for family stuff.
But don't worry you'll see them." she reassured the ogre boy....
