Diego, Shira and the possums were out in the forest of the island. They had a son that had Diego's coat color and Shira's body structure
"Hows it going finding any lunch? You've rejected almost all of the prey I found," Shira said.
"Well, they were all either too close to the animals we know or were a part of the heard," Diego replied.
"Hey. Do you remember seeing any other sabers around here?," Eddie asked.
"Wait what? Where?," Diego asked walking over to them.
"Over there," Crash said pointing, the three where crouching down behind bushes. Diego saw the saber they were talking about. He was relived. It was only a cub. She was a pure chocolate brown cub with deep blue eyes. She was about a third of Shira or Diego's height, making everything about her body also a third smaller (Paws, height, length, teeth, claws, etc). Also making her around the same age as their son, Tony.
Diego roared and jumped out of the bushes to scare the cub off. The cub heard the roar and saw Diego coming. She froze. Diego stopped in front of her.
"What are you doing here?," Diego asked coldly.
"I-I," the cub shuddered, looking up at Diego
Her voice was high, but not too high that it was annoying, more like the young child high. It was also clear as day from her voice she was a girl. Her voice also cracked a bit, but not too much, just when her voice went really high or shouted.
"Don't you have a pack to get back to or something?," Diego asked.
The cub opened her mouth to replied but then closed it, thought for a bit, and then just shook her head.
"No? …. What's you're mother's name?," Diego asked confused.
"Um…. Nina," the cub replied.
Diego stared at the cub, his face turned pale.
"What?,"
"I'm Perla,"
"H- How?," Diego said.
"Diego! What's going on? Scare her off already!," Shira called.
The cub reflected Diego's paleness as she also stared at the saber.
"Wait Diego!? My mom told me about! So this is where is where you've been? I can't believe you just abandoned your friend like that!," the cub yelled, her voice cracking slightly because of the yelling and speaking high at some point.
Perla ran off.
"No Perla! Wait! It's not like that! Please come back!," Diego yelled and ran after the cub.
Shira and the possums followed.
