Roo and Kanga were finding themselves extremely uncomfortable. The impact of the running beast they were on made them slide back and forth on the spine. A few times Roo felt nauseous. Despite the inconveniences, they held on into what was probably night. The sky was blacker than it was when the two first arrived. No star or moon was found in the sky. It soon became clear that it was impossible to see. Only the sounds of thundering bones was the only thing to indicate the presence of the large herd.

"Mama...Do you see a spot so we could hide?" Roo said. He covered his mouth to make sure nothing from his stomach came out and made their presence known.

"No. We'll get off once they stop."

Suddenly, a roar erupted. The Bone Beasts stopped instantly. The one Roo and Kanga was on, a rhino, came to a screeching halt. Bumping into a dinosaur-like creature in front of him. Roo was soon flung to the front barely able to grab the horn. Empty sockets focused on him. "What are you? Where did you come from?" Before he could demand more answers, Roo leaped into the empty eye. "Hey! Get out of there!"

"Niiiiiiimbuuuuuusk!" A roar resounded. Kanga slid quickly, hoping that no one noticed her in the panic. She hid behind the rhino's hind leg. Thundering footsteps approached them. Each one shook the ground. Kanga dared to look up. She hid her gasp. Standing right in front of them was a T-Rex skeleton with a Triceratops' crest and three horns graced his head. Though the eye sockets were empty, they burned with a hidden fury. Teeth sharp. It was the creature once mentioned, but they all thought it was a silly imagination made from their fear. Now...The Skullasaurus is real! "What are you fussing about now?!"

"There's a weird creature in my eye socket." Nimbusk grumbled.

"Everything is weird to him." One bone creature whispered.

The Skullasaurus growled. He snorted, causing a large cloud of dust to fly into the air. "I have no time for you petty problems. We must create fires unless you want to become a frozen statue or maybe have you sent into the void." At that, a chorus of hushed whispers reached their ears. When Nimbusk grew silent, a slight movement that resembled a grin showed on his face. "Good. Now pull out the sticks and start the fires."

With that, everyone got to work. Leaving Nimbusk all alone. The Rhino Skeleton sighed. He began to move. He flinched as a sensation of someone climbing up his leg. Nimbusk turned and found Kanga on his hind leg. He growled and snorted. His teeth were only a foot away from her face. Then, he grunted. He strutted along. Paying no mind to Kanga climbing up his leg. He began to pull out sticks and tried placing them up. However, they kept falling no matter how many times he tried to set them properly.

"You brought this on yourself, you know." A skeleton cat walked up to the giant creature. He was no bigger than Roo. He sat plainly. His empty eyes looked up at his head. "You can come out now."

Roo peeked his head out slightly. He ducked his head back in. His heart thundered in his chest. "No way!"

"Come now I won't tell. But being inside Nimbusk, won't make you feel any warmer. It's always cold here."

Kanga shivered. As much as she hated to admit it, it was getting colder out. No doubt Roo was freezing inside the eye socket. Kanga climbed further up the back and hopped onto the nose bridge. "Roo dear. Come on out. You'll catch a cold in there if you stay any longer."

Roo reluctantly popped his head out. His ears flicked. He shivered again. The sky grew darker than normal. He sighed. He fumbled in the dark. His shirt pulled tighter to his body. Roo felt Kanga's warm hands as she placed him in her pouch. He flinched as he felt something hard on his feet. Roo pulled out a blanket and a wrapped package.

Kanga took it from him. She nearly slipped but Nimbusk lowered his head. "Uh...Thank you…" She wrapped her blanket around her body. She took notice of the small fire they tried to make. She walked over to them. "You can't do much with that kind of fire." Kanga began to arrange the stick like she would normally do back home. She ignored the bone cat as he walked up behind her.

"You know that's not-" A flash of fire soon erupted. The cat arched. He hissed for a moment. He took a moment for the heat to reach his bones. "Hmmm….Not bad…"

"Why did you do that?" Nimbusk asked. "Didn't you hate me before?" He moaned. "Everyone here does. Except for Mau."

"You're the only one who doesn't find me annoying and let me ride on your back." Mau added.

Kanga pulled the blanket tighter. She looked at this strange pair. Both were suppose these frightening monsters. Out to destroy Honey Maple. However, these two looked like they belonged to the Hundred Acre Wood. She shook her head when the question was repeated to her. "I just don't want to deal with the cold."

"Yeah…" Nimbusk said. "It's lonely here, but I would love to go back to the tundras." He suddenly got on his back legs and did a small jig. "Those penguins know how to dance." He continued to dance. Earning a laugh from Roo and Kanga.

Mau sighed. He slapped a boney paw on his head. "You know dancing is forbidden right?"

Roo tilted his head. "Hey wait a minute! I thought you guys don't like joyus stuff."

"The Dark Dream King does. He simply bans it. However...Our general doesn't care much for rules. Only results. Though I recommend sticking with us. You seem to be interesting company."

Kanga raised a brow. "Thank...you…" Suddenly, Roo handed her a cookie. She took a bite. It was cold and a bit hard, but better than an empty stomach. Kanga nearly jumped as Mau moved closer to her.

"What is that?" The skeleton cat tilted his head.

Roo raised a brow. "You've never seen a cookie before?" He nearly jumped out of his pouch when Mau snatched it from his hand. "Heeeeeeeyyyyy."

Mau broke it in pieces. His sharp teeth made loud crunching noises. As doing so, he turned his head left, right, then left again. He swallowed. A loud purr erupted. Then, he took a big leap. "Yahoo!" He then danced a jig. Before long, he took another one for Nimbusk. Before long, the duo began to dance and sway to an imaginary song that was played in the fire. Leaving their audience warm and confused.
