I have everything planned out for the rest of the story! I'm so excited for the turning point! It's going to be the greatest thing ever!

"Dave!" Grace shouted excitedly. "How'd you find us?"

Amber pushed Dave away from her. "Wait you know him?"

"Yeah. He's- an old friend." Grace turned her attention back to Dave.

"Scout told me. Where's everyone else?"

"I don't know. We were ambushed and I was knocked out." Grace looked down at the floor.

"Oh, the amazing Grace was ambushed?" Amber sounded sarcastic. "Never."

"You're just pissed because I had to be knocked out to be caught." The wolf growled.

"That's it!" Amber tackled Grace.

"Whoa, Whoa, Whoa!" Akela pulled Amber off of Grace. "That's enough ladies."

"I liked you better when you were dying." Amber muttered.

"Good to see you too." Akela glared at the penguin.

Grace stood back up. "You guys go back to the zoo. I'm going after the others."

"No your not." Akela and Amber both ordered.

"Then go with me."

"You aren't going anywhere, Grace." the door closed with a loud clatter.

Grace spun around and backed up a few steps.

"Where are your manners?" Sarge smiled. "Introduce me to your friends."

Scout froze and listened. She decided she was being paranoid. So she walked a little further. A faint bang echoed to her. "Skipper." she whispered. Giving up on her stealth mission. The husky picked up the pace and started to trot. Until the thud grew louder. Then, she broke into a run.

"Skipper, give up." Sal sighed. "It's not worth killing yourself over."

"The girls are in trouble and I'm not going to just stand here doing nothing!" Skipper shouted in response.

"We can't get out. And throwing yourself against the door repeatedly will not help." Alexander added. "The door opens in. And is locked from the other side."

Skipper gave up, falling to the ground.

Scout put her front paws against the door and unlocked it. "Skipper?"

"Who the hell are you?" Alexander jumped up.

"Calm down. I am Scout. Akela's sister."

"I don't see the resemblance." Sal looked at Scout puzzled.

"I have been told we have similar eyes." Scout shook her head. "We have the same mother. She was a whore."

"Was?" Skipper cut in. "She still is."

"Yes, I agree. But we should leave before we get caught." Scout started towards the door.

Grace growled at Sarge. She knew that she couldn't hold Sarge off at all. He would just snap her neck, just like Alexander had with Kouan, then go after the others.

"Well, Grace? I'm waiting." Sarge took a step forward.

"Why should I introduce them? You know Akela, and you nearly killed Amber." Grace tried to keep her voice from shaking.

"You really are something else-"

"When I say to. We run." Grace whispered.

"I've always thought the world of you Grace. Actually, I thought you'd join me on the dark side." Sarge shrugged and stepped up next to Grace. "After all. You've shared so many adventures with Skipper-"

Grace sunk her teeth into Sarge's neck and threw him against the wall.

Sarge recovered just as Dave pulled the door closed, trapping Sarge in the room alone.

"Big mistake, getting on my bad side." he growled.

Dr. Blowhole glared at the lobster impaitently. "Well?" he said.

"We gathered the enimes." the lobster answered.

"Excellent. No one was killed in the skirmish right?"

"Uh. Well. You see boss- uhm. Only like 10."

"10? There were only 9 of them!"

"Oh. I thought you meant minions. No, noone was killed."

"Good. What about injuries?"

"Uh, the wolf was knocked out." the lobster winced, ready to be hit.

"You put Grace with Amber correct?"

"Uh, yeah boss. Was that a problem?"

"No. That's brillant. As long as our lovely Scout stays out of this."

"Boss." Another lobster walked in, pushing a big crate. "What do you want us to do with this?"

"Oh, the reptilian wolf. Uhh... Do I want to ask how it turned out?" Blowhole grew scared just thinking about the possibilites.

"Well..." The crate shook violently. "It has an attitude."

"As expected. Have you met it's parents?"

"Not that kind of attitude. Like a rip-your-face-off- attitude."

"Really?"

The crate suddenly broke apart. And a small dark brown puppy tumbled out.

"What?" Blowhole looked at the puppy, "This is my cold-blooded killing machine."

"Yeah. Scary isn't it?"

"No. It's a puppy. A harmless innocent puppy."

"Use an age-accelerator."

The puppy growled and (to say bark would be a huge disgrace to canines everywhere) yipped.

"Awww." Some of the lobsters sighed.

"No don't 'awww' This puppy is a killer!" Blowhole exclaimed. "I need a monster. Not a baby." He started off towards his lab, the puppy stumbling behind him.

That's my chapter. I'm so close to the fun part that I can't wait! It will probably be the next chapter So, be ready! In case you all were wondering, I decided not to do a Halloween story. Sorry, I know some of you were looking forward to it, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I'm also taking requests for what I should be for Halloween. So, leave a suggestion in your review. And I'll make a video of it for youtube!
