*Sigh* Well, enjoy! :)
…
Peaches raised an eyebrow as she watched Granny hack her Jack-O-Lantern to what resembled the leftovers of a wolf pack's meal.
"Uh…Granny? That's not how you-"
"He looks fat."
"It's a pumpkin. It's supposed to look fat."
"Not Jack. Him." Granny pointed at Manny with her cane, and he scowled. "Ha ha. Funny." Peaches giggled. "Where are those possums? And Sid? They should've been back by now…..especially Sid. Going out every night like that….." Manny grumbled. Shira snorted a laugh. "Maybe he's got bad case of the runs…..ya know what I mean." The striped saber and the mammoth chuckled at the joke. "Manny, incase you haven't noticed, Buck's gone too." Diego put in anxiously. This situation made him worried…but why? Manny shrugged carelessly. "Buck's a loner. A wanderer. I'm sure he's fine." Ellie looked at Manny quietly, then looked up past him as Crash and Eddie came running up, anxiety written on their faces.
"Crash! Eddie! There you two are! Where were you?"
Crash was the first to speak. "Ellie…..Sid and Buck are werewolves."
Everyone stared.
"It's true!" Eddie interjected. "Sid couldn't control his wereform, so Buck beat him into submission with his and- Here they come!"
The possum brothers ran back to the werewolf carrying the injured weasel, and at the sight of the huge wolfish demonic creature, the whole herd froze in terror…..well, admiration in Peaches' case.
"Whoa….that's so cool…" She whispered.
Then her eyes fell on Buck.
"Oh my gosh, WHAT HAPPENED?!"
The herd ran over, Manny somewhat freaked by Sid's new appearance, and Ellie gently took the weasel from Sid. The werewolf sat on the ground, looking very much like a big pathetic sad dog. His wolfish ears drooped. "I did this to him….it's my fault…" He pointed at Buck's nasty looking side, the blood staining Ellie's trunk. The weasel's eye was closed.
"Is he…?" The possums leaned in to look at their friend.
"Just unconcious from blood loss." Ellie reassured them.
Granny hobbled on over and looked at the weasel. She lifted his chin, and his eye opened a little, weakly. "It's nothing I cant fix." She said and, taking the weasel from Ellie, carried the smaller mammal away to care for his wounds.
Diego looked at the worried possums, then folowed after Granny. "I'm going with them. Just to make sure she doesn't do anything weird…you know how Granny is…."
…
About 6 hours later:
Crash lazily raised his head. He and Eddie had dropped off to sleep 2 hours after Granny and Diego had left with Buck. He looked around and was surprised to see Diego sleeping nearby, and curled up like a dog with his chin on the saber's paw, was Buck, his body wrapped up with some herbs that Granny had used. Sid was back in his sloth form now, snoozing away on Manny's back like he always tends to do best. (LOL) Buck's head came up and he looked at the possum. Crash grinned.
"Feeling better?"
"Yeah."
Eddie sat up abruptly at the sound of Buck's voice, his eyes bugging and clearly showing the fact that he'd just been sleeping. He grinned widely when he saw Buck and scampered on over, hugging the weasel. Crash followed and hugged their weasel buddy too.
"Happy Halloween, Buck!"
…
Shameful ending…..so shameful..T_T
Oh well….XD I can live with it I guess. XD
Happy late Halloween, readers! :D
