Chapter 3: Something Wicked Is Back
"W-What?" Diego gasped.
"I'm pregnant Diego, You're gonna be a daddy" Shira replied.
Diego was so surprised as he looks at Shira with widen eyes and after a moment he fainted.
"Oh dear" Shira nervously replied.
Later at night, Diego woke up as he was back at the Sanctuary where Toby was waiting for him.
"Are you OK dad?" Toby asked.
"Toby, I had a strange dream, I dreamt that your mother was pregnant" Diego yawned.
"Mum is pregnant, dad" Toby replied.
Diego looks at the wolf with widen eyes as Toby added
"You fainted when she told you the news"
"Shira...is...pregnant?" Diego asked as he shook his head.
"Yeah why? Aren't you happy about this?" Toby asked.
"Well...I...Yeah...I am, I'm just...I...Whoa! I can't believe it! I'm gonna be a dad" Diego happily gasped as he felt so happy.
"But...what about me? Aren't I your son?" Toby asked.
Diego looks at the wolf as he fear that what he just said didn't sound right as he replies
"Of course, You are my son Toby, I just...whoa, Me having my own flesh and blood in the world, That's amazing" Diego replied.
"I'm glad to hear that" Shira replied as she walks by to the boys.
"Shira, This is amazing" Diego happily replied as he licks and nuzzles his wife.
"I know, We're having a cub" Shira cheered.
"I know! Wait, Do the others know?" Diego asked.
"Yeah I told them after they asked me why you fainted" Shira replied.
"I see" Diego replied as he nervously blushes.
"But hey, They're happy about this" Shira added.
"And am I Shira" Diego replied as he nuzzles Shira.
As Toby watche his adoptive parents nuzzling, he thinks to himself.
"This is great, I'm gonna have a little brother or sister...But...if that happens...Will I be replaced?"
Meanwhile in the deepest part of the forest a snow coloured wolf name Elisa was running through the forest as fast as she can until she then halts and looks around.
Soon she jumps away as a vulture swoops down near her.
The vulture and another one lands on the ground as they each glare at the female wolf.
"Well, well Fred, What do we have here?" The 1st vulture chuckled.
"Why it's Elisa, Ted" Fred deviously replied.
"Hello boys! Miss me?" Elisa smirked.
"Save your little smirk for someone else Elisa" Ted snapped.
"I know why you're here. You're gonna try and take me to your boss" Elisa growled.
"Correct Miss Elisa" Fred snarled.
"And you will come with us" Ted warned.
"And if I don't" Elisa mocked the vultures.
"We'll force you to come with us" Fred threatens.
"We'll see about that" Elisa laughed.
"Oh really?" Fred snapped.
"Hey! Look! Your boss is here!" Elisa exclaimed as she points at behind them.
"Where?" Both of the vultures asked as they turn around to see nothing.
"I don't get it...Where is the boss?" Ted asked.
"Wait a minute" said Fred as he realises something.
They turn around to see that Elisa was gone.
"Darn it Ted! You let her got away again!" Fred angrily exclaimed as he whacks Ted in the head.
"Me? You're the one who turned around first" Ted argued and whacks Fred on the back of the head.
"Did not!" Fred denied.
"Did too!" Ted protected.
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
Suddenly they heard a booming voice
"What is going on here?"
Both of the vultures stopped arguing and look up to see a slightly bigger vulture.
"Oh! Hey Carlos!" Fred nervously chuckled.
"H-Hi sir!" Ted also chuckled nervously.
"Spare me the greetings you two, did you find Elisa?" Carlos demanded.
"Well...We did...sorta" Ted replied.
"And?" Carlos demanded.
"She outsmarted us...again" Ted shamefully replied.
"You morons! The mistress will not be pleased with this at all" Carlos angrily shouted as he whacked the two vultures at the back at the head.
"Sorry sir" Both vultures apologised.
"Now come! We must return" Carlos ordered and soon the vultures fly away in the sky as Elisa pokes her head of some of the bushes.
"Idiots! Don't they ever learn that they can't stop me? Well, I would say no for the vultures due to their small brain of theirs" Elisa giggled and walks away.
Meanwhile the vultures continued flying to the sky as they were now at the mountains and soon they flew inside a giant cave called the Cave of Darkness.
Inside the cave, there are some wolves that are chatting to each other and some wolves that are fighting over their lunches and bones.
Soon the three vultures flew down in the highest spot where the grand leader of the Cave of Darkness stands.
"You bring news...I hope" the leader coldly snarled.
"We manage to track down Elisa" Carlos replied.
"So...Where is she?" The leader hissed.
"She escaped...again...No thanks to these two idiots" Carlos hissed to the twin vultures as they bowed their heads in shame.
"You're really beginning to disappointing me Carlos" the leader snarled and walks up to them and grabs Fred and Ted's throat.
The vultures couldn't see the wolf properly in the shadow.
"Every day you kept on failing me and that makes me angry! And if you fools make me angry...You will regret the day you were born" The leader angrily exclaimed.
"We're so sorry boss!" Fred whimpered.
"Y-Yeah we won't fail you again" Ted also whimpered.
Soon the leader lets go of them and growls
"I should dispose you two right now...but since you help us captured that sloth, I decided to let you two off the hook"
"Oh thank you boss!" Fred thanked as he bows down.
"We will do much better we promise" Ted replied as he bows down as well.
"Good...Nathaniel! Bring the sloth forward!" The leader of the pack ordered.
"Right away" Nathaniel replied and soon he and the other wolves dragged a orange sloth to the leader who was still in the shadows of the throne stone made chair.
"Here he is boss!" Nathaniel replied.
"Excellent! Now...Matt isn't it? You know someone I've been longing to have revenge" the leader growled at Matt.
"I don't know where she is and even if I did, I would never ever tell you anything" Matt spatted.
"I will not waste any more time with you and your nonsense...You know Carrie...So you must be a friend of hers" the leader hissed at Matt.
"So what if I am Carrie's friend?" Matt sternly replied.
Then you would know where she is, I've been searching for her for two whole years ever since I learned that Victor was dead" The leader angrily snarled.
"Well tough break for you Caroline" Matt mocked.
The leader of the wolves stood out of the shadows and the light from the outside of the cave reveals that it was the one of Carrie's enemies.
"It's Carlotta, you stupid orange fur ball!" Carlotta growled.
"Well Carlotta, I'm afraid that you are wasting your time because I've no idea where my friend Carrie is" Matt sternly replied.
"Well she couldn't just disappear!" Carlotta shouted.
Carlos then turns to the twin vultures and sternly asked.
"Are you two sure you looked everywhere?"
"Sure we did!" Fred replied.
"Yeah we can't find her" Ted also replied.
"And where exactly have you two looked?" Carlotta growled.
"Well, she's not at the sloth village, she's not at the forest, she's not at that tall mountain that looks like a tower" said Fred.
"You mean the Sanctuary?" Ted asked.
"Yeah" Fred replied.
"Wait a minute...That's all you searched for her?" Carlotta asked.
The vultures nodded but soon Carlotta was steamy mad as she roars
"THAT'S NOT THE SANCTUARY! THAT'S FORBIDDEN ROCK YOU TWO BIRDBRAINS!"
"Easy miss, easy" Carlos soothed as he wraps his wings around Carlotta as the vulture glares at the twin vultures and growled.
"You two, in your cage, Right now"
"Yes sir" Both Fred and Ted shamefully replied as they flew into a skeleton made cage.
"Take that sloth away Nathanial" Carlotta growled.
"Yes miss" Nathanial replied and he grabs the orange sloth to his cage.
"Don't worry my beautiful mistress, Soon revenge shall be yours and Forbidden Rock will be yours to rule" Carlos soothed his mistress.
"Carlos, You and Nathanial are the only mammals I trust now. Go to the Sanctuary and see if Carrie and her precious so called true love are still there. Then come back here and report to me" Carlotta angrily yet calmly ordered Carlos.
"It shall be done my lady" Carlos replied as he bows before Carlotta.
"Go now and do not fail me" Carlotta growled as she returns to her throne as Carlos flies away to find Carrie and Sid.
"Soon those two brats of that freakish herd will pay for everything they did to me and Victor" Carlotta growled to herself.
Oh no!
Carlotta is alive! D:
What evil plans doe this crazy she-wolf have for Sid and the herd?!
What happens next?!
Stay tune to find out!
PS: MERRY CHRISTMAS! :D
