Disclaimer: I don't own Gummi bears, though I would like to point out that this story is a hundred years in the future making it 1470.
Part II
"WHAT?!" said the knights in unison.
"We, err...I can't look after a cub I don't have the time" replied Sir Plucki.
"Gummadoon is under no immediate threat so for now you will look after the cub since it only lets you handle him" said Councillor Wooddale.
The cub giggled and slid out of Sir Plucki's arms onto the floor then crawled over to Sir Blastus. The cub stopped at his feet and sat down on the floor and stretched out his small arms.
"Cute" said Sir Blastus picking up the cub.
The cub chirped happily and climbed up onto his shoulder and looked at Sir Gumlittle. The cub leaned over trying to get closer then fell off Sir Blastus shoulder onto the floor hitting his head on the floor. Everyone turned to the cub expecting it to cry but instead he just rubbed his head got to his feet and smiled then ran across the hall occasionally falling over.
"Petit enfant come back"
With that the knights ran out of the hall after the little cub leaving the councillors somewhat amused at the situation.
Cammi ran out of the hall occasionally falling over due to lack of balance. Upon reaching the stairs Cammi looked around then down the flight of stairs, but as he stuck out his foot it got caught on a board which sent Cammi flying down the stairs on the board.
"CAMMI" the knights shouted as Cammi went sliding down the stairs on a wooden board.
When the board reached the last step it tilted so Cammi went flying off the end onto the floor.
Cammi got up a little dusty but it didn't bother him he was having fun. He ran around Gummadoon with the knights in pursuit always doing something to prevent them catching him until he wandered into the training grounds. He ran across the yard then looked behind him when he ran past some more knights and then fell flat on his flat onto the hard ground when he fell over one the knights staff's that had been left out. Cammi got up with tears pricked in his eyes and reached down and picked up the staff in his paw. Cammi rubbed his grazed knees with his other paw, his knees and elbows hurt and under normal circumstances he would of cried, but this object in his paw intrigued him. He swung it round and laughed this was fun.
The knights came running into the training ground and just stood frozen when they saw Cammi. He was standing in the middle of the grounds with one of their training staff's in his hand and appeared to be perfectly fine with nothing except a few grazes on his knees which didn't seem to be bothering him which was amazing in its self considering how close he'd been to breaking his neck that afternoon.
Sir Plucki advanced on Cammi and caught the staff in his hand as Cammi swung round. He had a grin on his face and was laughing. Sir Plucki took the staff from Cammi and Cammi looked at him with interest seeing what he was doing. Sir Plucki held the staff in his hand and placed one end on the ground, as soon as it touched the ground Cammi had clambered up it until he was at eye level with him. Sir Plucki looked at Cammi who just smiled happily at him, then jumped onto him and hugged him. Sir Plucki looked stunned for a moment before gathering the cub up in his free hand. He walked over to one of the other knights and handed him the staff then walked over to Sir Blastus and Sir Gumlittle.
Cammi lay asleep in Sir Plucki's arms the afternoon's events were taking their toll on the young cub.
"He's very strong," said Sir Gumlittle.
"And fast" added Sir Blastus.
Sir Plucki just looked down at the sleeping cub in his arms, he looked so calm and innocent then Cammi snuggled closer and murmured something just recognisable and loud enough for the knights to hear, which left all of them shocked and speechless it was "Dadda"
