Chapter Six; Love Is In The Air
Hello, very important announcement everyone! First of all merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone! Anyway, this is sort of a last minute split decision but there will be a third Wolf's Tale story entitled A final Tale all about Luna turning into a human after an idea I had from one of the reviewers in the first story. However I can't give out too much information yet without giving away spoilers. And for all of you Doctor Who fans, tomorrow I'll get started on Son of The Doctor.
Luna walked around unsteadily up on deck. "Whoa, whoa." She said. "What's wrong Luna?" Elizabeth asked her out of concern. "I don't feel so good. My stomach hurts." She said. "You're probably just a little seasick." She told her as Jack perked up his ears. "Seasick? How could anyone get sick of the sea? I'd do anythin' to get it back." He said as Luna hung her head and her tail drooped. Jack was unaware that she had taken it the wrong way. "Well Jack believe it or not some people, or in this case animals do." She told him as she bent down and picked her up.
"Come on Luna, you'll probably be alright after you lay down and rest a little." She said as she carried her inside a cabin. Meanwhile Gibbs continued to steer the ship while Jack jumped up on his hind legs and placed his front paws over the railing as he looked out to sea. "Ah, hey Jack." Gibbs began as he turned to grin at him and rubbed his head. He simply gazed at him for a moment before he continued to talk to him. "You really miss it don't you?" he questioned him as Jack turned his head and looked at him. "You have no idea mate." He answered with a whine as he placed his head down on top of his paws and rested it there.
"How is he?" Jen asked as she walked over to Gibbs and stood next to him. "Ah the poor guy's got a broken heart. Can't really say I blame him though, he was a very notorious pirate in his days." He said. "Yeah but at least he gave it all up for a good reason." She said as Jack continued to think about how much he had missed the Pearl. "You know, it turns out that Jack and Luna aren't the last wolves around after all." She said as Jack realized that she had had a point, if he had decided to turn back into a human, Luna wouldn't be alone anymore. However the more he thought about it the more he knew that he still couldn't leave her because she was still his cub.
Jack raised his head and looked back at Jen after he had noticed that it had grown rather quiet. He noticed that she was staring at his mate with a dreamy look on her face. He gave a little growl and a fierce bark and woke her up out of her dreamlike state. "What?" she asked him with disbelief as Jack grabbed ahold of her sleeve with his teeth and started tugging her away from him. He finally let go once they were at a far enough distance. Jen squatted down to his level and looked at him.
"What is it what do you want?" she asked him quietly. "I just thought that I'd like to remind you that I didn't agree to come on this trip so you could start making goo-goo eyes at Mister Gibbs." He told her. "But I wasn't." she said softly with a little shake of her head. "Ha! That's a laugh!" he said as he sat down and extended his hind leg into the air for a good scratch behind the ear. "Yeah, well what about you and Elizabeth?" she whispered as he stopped scratching for a moment and glanced at her.
"That's none of your business." He said before he continued to scratch. "Besides I'm not human anymore remember. So there's not much that I can do about it." He said as he finally placed his leg back on the ground. "Where are we even supposed to be going on this blasted trip anyway?" he asked her. "We already told you, we're going to find our birth parents." She answered. "Yes but you neglectfully forgot to tell me how." He pointed out. "Have you ever heard of Long John Silver?" she asked him.
"Of course I have but what does he have to do with this?" he questioned. "If we find his treasure we can get anyone and anything else that we want. At least that's what the legend says." She told him. "Oh please! Come on love really!? I can't believe everyone seems to think that I have issues when you're naïve to believe some childish fairytale like that! Ah well, I'll go check on my daughter. I don't really know how I keep gettin' myself into these things." He said as he stood up and started walking towards the cabin.
"Oh, hey Jack." Elizabeth said as he leapt up onto the bed beside a sound sleep Luna and laid down. "Don't worry, she'll be alright." She said as Lilly and Marina sat down next to him on either side of him and started petting him. "That's good because I'm not so sure about your sister. I'm afraid that she's really lost it." He said. "What do you mean?" Elizabeth asked him. "Well for starters I think that she likes Gibbs." He said. "Oh my God! Lock her up and throw away the key!" she yelled sarcastically with a roll of her eyes.
"And secondly," he began as he ignored her response. "She seems to think that this treasure we're after will magically bring your parents to you." He told her. "Well, that's what the stories say." She pointed out. "Well I can really tell that you two are related because you're just as crazy as she is." He said as the two twin girls suddenly giggled. "Did they just laugh at that?" he questioned as they both nodded their heads. "Well I guess that answers that question. It looks like you have mini witches on your hands love." He told her.
"Hey, don't forget that they're also on your paws." She told him as he simply heaved a heavy sigh and laid his head down on the top of his paws. "Come on girls, I think that they need some time alone to rest." Elizabeth said as she got up and took each one of their hands while Jack closed his eyes and started to drift off into a heavy sleep.
Update; I am very sorry, I have had a lot going on and suffering with some major writer's block right now, but as soon as I come up with some ideas I'll be updating more of my fanfics.
