Part 6 (Puppy's point of View)
Puppy was determined to find his Saavik. He ran down the halls of the school. Stopping at a locker and sniffing. Looking around he did not find her so he began to sniff the ground again. He looked up and growled as an young boy went to the locker next to Saavik's. The child quickly changed his mind and ran into the nearest washroom.
Puppy satisfied Saavik's place was safe took off once more. The Vulcan's and humans were now almost running to catch up as he barreled over students barking and sniffing. He ran into a large area where several classrooms of children were eating their mid meal. The cafeteria staff shouted as the large dog ran to the Vegetarian area and overturned a salad bowl sniffing and looking for Saavik. The puppy was well trained so he did not steal any food or stop to accept the offers of ruffled ears by the many human children. He went to a woman who froze as the large beast sniffed around. He then ran away as she screamed because he picked up a small bag. The remains of Saavik's Mid meal. She had forgotten her lunch bucket and the staff had taken it to return it to her latter.
Puppy ran down the hall and found his way to the classroom where Saavik was now heading up to give her presentation.
"Saavik if you will please go to the front of the class and begin." Mrs. Farnsworth said "I am certain we are all eager to hear about your illustrious family." Her tone was condescending and rude.
Spock stiffened and Leonard McCoy considered slapping her. Principle Skinner squirmed clearly uncertain how to handle this.
Mrs. Farnsworth headed up and pointed to the place for Saavik to stand. She was clearly putting the girl on the spot.
The door burst open and Puppy ran in growling while holding Saavik's box. He ran forward and put himself between Saavik and the teacher his large teethe showing. Clearly he considered the tone of the human to be a threat.
"Puppy?" Saavik said shocked The dog was supposed to be with Amanda and Sarek on Vulcan. "What are you doing here?" She asked.
Mrs. Farnsworth Screamed in terror and jumped back. This action pleased the puppy as he growled and moved toward her clearly wanting her away from his charge. The human to her credit was not stupid and jumped up onto her deask giving Saavik a clear berth.
Spock rose and turned and was not at all surprised to see his Mother, father and entire security staff entering the room. He took a deep breath and raised his hand. "Live long and Prosper Father , Mother. It is agreeable to see you."
"Peace and long life Spock. I puppy has found Saavik. " Sarek said ironically. He tried not to consider the havoc the animal had caused.
"Found me sir?" Saavik asked confused.
"We were told you were missing." Amanda said rushing to the girl and hugging her not caring if she embarrassed her. "That you could be in danger. We were afraid you had been abducted."
Mc Coy looked at Spock and Sarek both whose brows rose at this action.
"Saavik has been returned safely. It was merely a miscommunication." Principle Skinner said. He was a little disconcerted to see the guards fan out and appear to be looking for kidnappers. He turned and found his off hand comment had not gone over well with either the Ambassador or Dr. Grayson. The look he got from the Vulcan sent chills down his spine. That of course was not much less frightening then the large dog. Did she call that monster puppy? That is a damned mountain! He thought. He watched as the dog went to Saavik and laid at her feet. He seemed content to now simply guard her.
