(Willow's P.O.V.) -A week later-

I sighed softly as I streamed through shows, punching the button on the remote, my other hand rubbing upon my baby bump. I was right about my theory of a abandoned building, and one came into flames for no particular reason, through the cops assumed that some teenagers must have been smoking, and a lit cigarette went aflame. I know they were wrong, Donnie knows it had to do something with the escape of the boys and Carla.

From the hacked website, the photos of the fire didn't look normal. Of course, it looks like a sparked fire from the outside to many others, but it looks like it has ignited from the inside. I only hope that they got far enough from the place, as for some reason, there was no bodies in the abandoned building, through there were quite several signs that pointed to it.

They could be anywhere now, and Leo told me that they're coming home one way or another. He's right as always. I just wished I knew where they are, or if they're alright. I heard the door open and I glanced over to see Leo and Donnie coming in after their patrol. Usagi is in the kitchen feeding Vince, and Sensei is meditating as usual. "Hey, slow night?".

Donnie chuckled as he came over, sitting upon the couch besides me, stroking my arm softly, "Just a couple of muggers and a close call with a group of drug-filled teenagers.". I nodded, "That's lucky, and thank goodness you got home safely. You know our kid needs you, Donnie.". Donnie smiled softly as he stroked my baby bump softly, "Don't worry, Willow, we got family to help us around, and with Vince as the kid's cousin, it's going to be much more interesting.".

"You don't mind if it's gonna be a girl? I just have a feeling.". I asked in wonder. Donnie kissed me on my cheek gently, "Well, if you're right, you're right, Willow, and besides, having a genius daughter could be fantastic!". I giggled as I laid my head upon his shoulder, "I just hope they're gonna be home soon before the baby comes. It's not the same around here without them.". Leo passed by us, replying, "If I know Raph and Mikey, and I do, they will be fine, and with Carla and Sal, they just have to be more careful, that's all. It's just going to take time.". I hummed, seeing the silver lining in his words, and I smiled a mite bigger at the thought of the whole family back together.

(Carla's P.O.V.)

I sleepily groaned in my sleep as I heard something in the distance, and I blinked in confusion as a name was repeated in barely audible sound. I got up slowly, and glanced back at the sleeping boys, and I didn't want to wake them up as they had worked on the spears earlier. I whispered, "Gonna be back.". I then shifted in full wolf, then pranced out there from our temporarily home, the sounds of the trees creaking, the slight chill of the wind, and the light of the half-moon. For some reason, I had no reaction to shifting in case if I am pregnant.

I shook my head, sniffed the air, and huffed slightly when I picked up the blowing scent of humans, and the sounds of voices are getting clearer, I opted to hide among the trees as I came into a run, smelling and hearing to make sure I wasn't too close by, then I heard it clearly now.

"Rachel, Rachel! Where are you? Rachel!". I blinked as I peeked through a bush, seeing about 8 humans, three women and five men. Most of the men and women were wearing green outfits while the sole man was wearing some sort of outdoor clothes, hugging a woman who's crying softly, also in outdoor clothes as well. They must be parents of a missing child, a daughter no less, as 'Rachel' is a feminine name. They were holding flashlights, calling out into the night.

I have been able to see colors somehow, as mundane wolves couldn't see colors, being colorblind, related to dogs. I huffed as I took in all the features of the parents, and the wind has been gratefully helpful with bringing me the scent of them, knowing that Rachel is a mix of her parents in all ways. I left the area, sniffing for any trace, pacing slowly as I don't want to miss anything.

Then I found a trace, sniffing it to realize that it must be the missing girl's scent, and I picked up my pace, following it until I heard muffled crying down in a ditch. I slowed down my pace, walking slowly, not wanting to scare Rachel, and I finally took in the first look of the kid, black hair with brown eyes and pale skin. I yelped loud enough to grab her attention, and she looked up, tears streaking down her face, looking like four years old.

Rachel gasped in surprise as she saw me, and I laid down with a huffing sound, showing her that she's allowed to touch me, softly wagging my tail in relieved happiness as I saw no injury on her anywhere, just simply dirty and lost. She blinked and got up slowly, walking to me, her scent reeking of slight fear, curiosity, and wonder. She laid out her hand for me to sniff, and I snuffed her hand, licked it softly, her scent becoming of relief and fright as she slowly sat next to me, petting my back as tears fell again.

"I am scared, doggie. I think I got lost.". I whimpered softly as I licked her arms, cleaning her up softly, hearing weak giggles, "That tickles!". I mentally smiled, and then whuffed lightly as I got up, nosing Rachel as tonight's cool. I don't want her to be sick or worse as children this young are susceptible to illness. I turned around, barking softly to Rachel, who blinked, "You gonna help me?".

I yelped, nodding, and Rachel got up, walked to me, clutching her hand into my chain as she stood at my side. I whuffed softly as I walked on, staying in pace with Rachel's small legs, hoping that we'd reach the group of searchers in time before they give up. They'll react when they see me, I know it, but if Rachel's next to me, they won't dare to harm me as she'd be on my side.
