Now and Forever
Chapter Six
Virginia walked along side Wolf, quietly. They decided to pass through a certain town.
"Wolf look!" She pointed, "Do you think Penny would go into that town?"
Wolf shrugged, "I can't sense her anymore, but it wouldn't hurt to ask."
They started running toward the town, but they were stopped with shock.
"Goodness gracious me!" Wolf exclaimed.
Virginia gasped, "They're all naked!"
Townspeople were floating around acting normal, speaking with one another, and buying things from marketplaces but they were all nude!
"This is the 5th Kingdom. Naked Emperor VI rules here, he really believes in Nudism." They laughed hysterically together.
People began staring at them, knowing that they were outsiders by their clothes.
A man came up to Virginia; "Can we help you?"
She tried to keep her eyes on his face and her cheeks from flushing, but it became difficult.
"We're searching for our daughter, she's five years old and her name is Penelope. Have you seen her?"
"What does she look like?" The man asked.
"She has wavy dark hair and crystal blue eyes, just like her mother." Wolf smiled proudly.
"Nope, don't say I have. Who are you so I can tell her you're looking for her if I see her."
"Virginia and Wolf." Virginia started but Wolf threw his hands up in the air.
"Virginia! Do you know that they have people looking for us?" He shouted.
She grimaced, "Well sorry! You don't have to yell!" She turned to the naked man, "Please don't tell anyone we're here."
"Your secret is safe with me. Hey Edith!"
A stalky naked woman with graying hair stood next to him.
"This is my wife, Edith, and I'm George. Edith, why don't we show these good people our home."
Virginia glanced at Wolf in alarm and then back to the man in front of them, "Oh no, that won't be nessecar..."
The naked man held up his hand to silence her, "No, I insist on it, you're staying with us!"
Wolf and Virginia laughed uncomfortably and let the woman lead them to a very large, Victorian house. As they entered the home, they noticed that there were tons of nude children running about and jumping over furniture.
"Be careful Virginia. 5th Kingdom people cannot be trusted. They're not very dependable."
Virginia nodded and closely followed behind Wolf.
Edith led them to a beautifully designed bedroom with a view that could knock a King off his feet, "I hope this is comfortable enough."
"Its great, thank you." Virginia returned a smile.
Wolf scratched his head wildly and glanced around the room.
The nice woman left.
"Huff puff, Virginia! The Ice Queen can have spies everywhere!"
His wife rolled her eyes, "You're overreacting Wolf. These people couldn't possibly be spies, they're too nice."
"That's what they all say, and then those nice people stick and stab you, and they turn you into dust!" Wolf growled.
Virginia looked over at him and gave him a sympathetic smile, "Not all people are like that you know." She saw a closet door and opened it to reveal beautiful clothing of all colors and shapes, but the fabric had gathered dust over all the years that it had been neglected.
"I know my creamy darling, but you mustn't trust everyone." He walked over to her and looked in the closet that she was marveling at. He picked out a simple baby blue peasant dress and blew the dust off of it, "This would look scrumptious on you." He grinned.
Virginia snatched it out of his hands, "Fine! I'll put it on, but after that, we have to keep looking for Penny, I miss her so much." She studied her shoes.
Wolf enveloped her with his masculine arms and kissed the top of her head, "We'll find her. I know it. Besides, she's got my nose."
"That's what I'm worried about." She grinned.
Wolf smiled back, "Now go get out of those dinner clothes."
Virginia left him to change, but in that time, neither of them knew the trouble that awaited them.
****************
Penelope saw Greenleaf town in the far distance. She quickly ran to the entrance and saw nothing but nude people. She squinted her eyes to block out all the people. Everywhere she looked, there was peach, tan, and dark skin.
Suddenly she picked up a scent, the one that smelled like Sunday lunch, "Mommy!" She ran to it.
****************
Wolf waited for Virginia to get dressed in the garment he picked out for her.
She walked into the room. She laughed when she saw her husband's tongue loll out of his mouth.
"Why Virginia, my beautiful succulent creature, you look like Snow White herself."
She looked down at her feet and pushed her hair behind her ears; the obvious signs that she was embarrassed by his wonderful remarks.
After a few moments of silence, Virginia grabbed his arm and pulled him out the bedroom door, out into the hallway, "Come on, don't forget about our sweet daughter."
The two walked down the stairs and into the front room. But just as they were about to open the door out of the house, they felt six cold and clammy hands grab them from behind. The thugs and troll family separated them from eachother.
George, the nude man, stood beside Spike with a shamed look on his face.
"How could you!" Virginia fought against Burley.
"We serve only the Queen and his Royal Highness." George looked away.
"His Royal Highness?" Wolf was confused, there was no male monarchy in the 8th Kingdom.
"Oh shut up!" Spike yelled as he walked toward Wolf.
Wolf in return, growled and pulled at Frankie and Phil's strong hold, to knaw on the punk's face.
Spike came dangerously close to him, "You wait till we're alone, I'll give you something to growl about."
Wolf grinned with an animalistic look in his eyes, "Can't wait."
"Okay!" Burley croaked, "Let's get going."
"Yeah," Blabberwort agreed, "We can't keep the Ice Queen waiting, can we?"
"But what about the witch?" Bluebell pointed to Virginia.
"His highness has special plans for her." Burley let out a horrible noise that Virginia could only guess was a laugh.
Wolf protectively tried his hardest to get free and save his love, but nothing could help them.
"Get em outta here!" Blabberwort laughed.
The men pulled the two helpless heroes out into the streets, where the cart had been placed. Their hands were bonded in front of them and they were pushed into two separate cages.
"Wolf!"
"Virginia, I can handle this!"
"How?"
"Don't worry!"
The odd couple saw Frankie approach with a huge blanket, placing it over the cages.
"Help!" Virginia shouted. She could hear Wolf's low growling in the dark, "Wolf?" She breathed heavily.
A growl was his response.
"Okay, we're in trouble, now what?"
Wolf sat thinking when a part of the blanket was cracked open, "Daddy?"
"Cub?" Wolf whispered happily.
"Shhh! They're coming!" Virginia hissed.
Penelope let the blanket fall and jumped behind a nearby bush.
"Lets go!" Burley snapped a whip against the horses' backs, jumping the cart into action.
She started running after the cart. Her tiny fingers barely reached it, when it went to a complete halt, sending her parents flying into the air.
Virginia and Wolfs' cages hit the ground rolling, knocking them from side to side until they slid into the river at the end of the slope.
"Aw! Such an elf!" Bluebell exclaimed as he looked from the batch of snails in front of the cart to the cages in the water, "Why'd you stop!" He hit Burley.
"I've always liked snails." He smiled down at the slow moving creatures.
His sibling and the thugs sent dangerous weapons flying his way, but he ducked, "Hey!"
"Wolf!" Virginia's screams were gargled by rushing waters.
Wolf tried to reach her in his own cage but the current was just to strong, "Hold on Virginia!"
"To what!?" She shouted.
Without thinking, Penelope pounced into the river to save her mother and father. Her little body was no match for the strong waters but she swam with all her might.
"Penelope!" Wolf cried.
She turned and saw his cage was sinking below. She quickly pushed against the water and swam toward him.
Penelope grabbed hold of it, "Daddy!"
"Cub baby, unlock the cage."
"How?"
Wolf was sputtering water out of his mouth as his face disappeared beneath the water. She held her breath as the cage pulled her down too.
Her father watched as Penelope reached for the door, she grabbed the side of the wooden cage and was pulled down by the immense weight. Almost out of breath, she reached for the metal bolt and unlocked the cage, setting Wolf free of his small prison.
They both hit the surface with a gasp.
"Mommy," Was Penelope's first word.
They swam in the direction of where Virginia was last.
****************
Virginia's cage had caught onto a tree root under the water, so for that moment she was safe. She was grateful that she wasn't as heavy as Wolf but she was slowly sinking.
"Virginia!"
She looked behind her and saw her husband with Penelope in his arms.
"Wolf hurry!"
Within seconds, Virginia sank below the unmerciful river.
Wolf gave a great dive and followed her under.
Penelope tried to hold onto the cage but felt so fatigued that she could no longer.
As Wolf set his wife free, he felt Penelope kick him in the head. He surfaced quickly, "What's wrong cub?" He saw that she was flowing downriver toward an enormous waterfall!
"CUB!" Wolf screamed, "Virginia, go to the bank!"
She did as told, while Wolf did his best to swim in his shackles.
She watched from the shore as he reached their daughter but they both disappeared as they went over the waterfall, "NO!"
Virginia raced over to the edge, where the shore cut off to a very steep cliff. As her prayers were answered, she saw Penelope grasping onto Wolf's back as he clung onto a loose tree limb that had grown into the river.
"Cub, baby, reach for Mommy." Wolf winced as the tree splinters dug into his palms.
Penelope held her hand out as Virginia grabbed it and pulled her to safety.
Wolf pulled his strained body up with his wife's help, trying to keep his face away from the beating current. Finally both pulled him up to dry land.
They each collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily and soaking wet.
Wolf coughed up the water that remained in his lungs as he looked over at his child. He crawled to her and held her close. He kissed her head, "I will never loose you again! I promise."
Virginia crawled to them and lay down within Wolf's tired but firm hold.
Feeling safe at last, they all feel asleep in eachother's arms.
