Alba is under a lot of stress due to Bianca's constant disapproval of her relationship with Skye; and Skye feels that same pressure. They have told Atticus what Bianca was doing; he was more than willing to let Alba stay with Skye if Bianca takes it too far; and Blanche also took their side. The girls were glad to have the whole herd on their side; with the exception of Bianca.
Atticus was having a meeting with Maya and Zack about the problem over at the Secret Caverns.
"So you see; Alba is getting to a point when she doesn't even want to come home; it's all because of Bianca's prejudice against gays and mixed breeds," Atticus explained.
Maya sighed.
"Are you asking us to take her in if Bianca causes harm that could possibly risk her life?" Maya wondered.
"Because if you are; I wouldn't feel right about breaking up your family," Zack added.
"Too late for that; I've had it with Bianca; her negative views on Alba and Skye's relationship is really getting under my skin; for the last few months since they've been together, Bianca has made Alba cry several times," Atticus explained.
"You still have Blanche; Alba's good sister," Maya assured him.
Atticus smiled.
"You're right; but, what am I gonna do?" Atticus wondered.
"I don't know; but, I'm sure reasoning with Bianca might work," Maya stated.
"Maybe; as much as I hate the way she's acting; I can't give up on her; she's my little girl; and a spitting image of her mother; but, with a touch of evil," Atticus responded.
Maya and Zack nodded.
"Well; I better go find Bianca and talk to her and hope she becomes nicer," Atticus said with a sigh.
Atticus left the area moments later. Maya looked over at Zack.
"Poor Atticus; being a single parent with three teenaged daughters; one evil, one gay and Blanche is the one in the middle," Zack replied.
Maya nodded.
"Makes me glad we're not prejudiced; and that Atticus isn't either," Maya added.
Soon enough, Maya and Zack nuzzled each other.
