(Day 4)
Dave sat on the rocks in front of the wolf den and just observed the scenary. The land that sat in front of him used to look so beautiful to him. In fact it still was. But now it was tarnished with the spilling of human blood. Dave may have been an otter now, but that didn't change the fact that he still felt for human life.
He had heard all about what had happened at the meeting with the Outlanders and the Alphas and that the Outlanders had threatened Lisa and Caleb's lives. A human life was one thing, but the life of a child,human or not, hit Dave even worse. He was about to be an uncle himself and if his niece or nephew were ever threatened like that, he would defend them.
Dave was so deep in his thoughts that he wasn't even aware of Garth coming up behind him.
Garth placed a paw on Dave's back and asked, "Hey, are you alright buddy?"
Dave turned with a start and saw Garth right there and he said, "Oh hey man. Yeah I guess I'm alright. I heard about what had happened yesterday at your alls meeting. Basically I'm just worried about Lisa and Caleb. Their lives have been threatened and I am prepared to defend them with my life."
"Why? They aren't even your kids?" asked Garth.
"It doesn't matter to me. They are still children and I will protect them," Dave said.
Dave turned back to the landscape, sighed, and said, "I'm about to become uncle. My sister is getting ready to have a kid. I don't even know if she has had it yet. That's one of the reasons why I was traveling when I ended up here. That alone makes this whole thing affect me deeply. And as I said 'I... WILL... DEFEND... THEM' even if I die in the process."
Garth sighed a little. "If you insist."
Garth sighed and walked back into the den.
Dave watched Garth go back into the den and said, "Let's hope nothing happens."
(Break)
As afternoon came in, Dave was sitting in one the fields and watched as Lisa played with her mother. Young Lisa was so adorable as she and her mother froliced around. Dave smiled. For him nothing was sweeter than a mother with her child. After a while, Lily and Lisa wandered over to where Dave was sitting.
Lily looked at Dave and said, "Don't you ever have any fun?"
Dave laughed and said, "Occasionally, but out here it has been kind of hard. It just feels different to me."
Lily looked confused and asked, "How is it different? Aren't you from the woods?"
Dave shook his head no and said, "Nope. I live in a zoo."
"What's a zoo?" asked little Lisa.
Dave laughed a little more and said, "A zoo is a place where animals live so that humans can come and observe them. Basically we are things of enterainment to them. We are kept in small places called 'Habitats' and that's where we live. and that is pretty much our daily life."
"That sounds horrible," Lily said.
Dave looked at her and said, "No it's not actually. We actually enjoy seeing the people coming here and there and there is also the fact that they come simply to see us. And when no one is visiting we can actually leave our habitats on our own with none of the workers there being the wiser. It's actually not a bad life."
Lily and Lisa laughed along with Dave until Garth came along and ruined the moment.
"Lisa, it's time to come back to the den," Garth called out to Lisa from nearby.
Lisa looked back at her father and said, "But daddy, I want to stay with mom."
Lily looked down at Lisa and said, "Lisa, your father said you have to go back to the den. You have to go with him. Please do as I say."
Lisa's ears drooped down and she ran over to her father. When she reached him, they both turned to the dens and walked in that direction.
Dave looked at Lily and asked, "So what is everyone else up to?"

Humphrey, Mooch, Salty, and Shakey had finally dragged their new hollowed out log to the top of the hill and they looked down.
Humphrey stared down at the bottom of the hill and said, "Well guys it's a straight shot from here. You guys ready?"
One by one each of the guys said, "Ready."
Humphrey was about to get the log going when he heard someone call out, "Humphrey hang on."
All the guys turned their heads and they saw Lily and Dave coming over to them.
"Lily, Dave. What are you guys doing up here?" asked Humphrey.
Lily stopped in front of the guys and asked, "Mind if we go with you guys. I've always wanted to try what you guys do."
"And I didn't really get to enjoy my ride with you guys last time," Dave said refering to his arrival.
Humphrey turned to the guys and asked, "Do you guys think we should let them come with?"
They all nodded their heads.
"The more the merrier," said Mooch.
"All right you two. Hop on board," Humphrey said to Lily and Dave.
Dave and Lily cheered and then climbed on board. Lily sat right behind Humphrey and Dave sat right in front of him.
Humphrey looked down at the hill and said, "Okay everybody ready? Here we go. 3...2...1."
And with that, Mooch pushed the log forward and it slid down the hill.
"WOOHOO," they all yelled at the log slid down the hill.
"Okay Mooch, turn to the left," Humphrey yelled to his friend.
Mooch did just that and Dave watched as the trees flew past them. Dave hadn't had this much fun since he had been to Coney Island over a year ago. But that's another story all together.
Salty stood up and held his arms out at his sides and started whooping. Everyone looked up at him and laughed.
Everyone was so distracted that they didn't see the ground coming up fast, but they didn't care. All they cared about was the speed of the log sled and the wind brushing through their fur. So when they hit the sudden jolt of flat ground, they weren't prepared.
The sled kept going until it hit a rock at fast speed and flipped over with all five wolves plus an otter tumbling out. They all hit the ground hard and afterward they each groaned in pain for a moment. But in the end they all brushed themselves off and cheered.
Lily laughed and said, "Now I can see why you guys do that all the time. That was a lot of fun."
Dave stood up and said, "Yeah that was great. Painful, but great. You guys know how to have a good time."
Humphrey and the guys stood up and they exclaimed loudly.
(Break)
A short while later; Lily, Humphrey, and Dave met up with Kate and the other Alphas. They had been succesful today with their hunts and had caught plety of caribou. They all started carrying todays catches to the dens when they all saw Winston running up to them.
Winston stopped in front of them all and looked at them all. "Are you all okay?" he asked them immediatly.
They all nodded and Dave aske, "Why?"
"Garth was attacked at the den and he has been injured. Eve is tending to his wounds right now, but I'm afraid that is not the worst part," Winston said.
"What happened Dad?" asked Lily.
Winston looked at all of them and said, "Caleb and Lisa are missing. They are just gone."
And so I leave you guys on another cliffhanger. What happened to Caleb and Lisa and who is to blame? Do I even need to ask you guys?
Read and review please.
