CHAPTER 8

Numbah Five was in great pain from the scratches and claw marks. Numbah Three probably could have been right about the force. Then she heard a small growl. Almost like a puppy's growl. She got a little scared but was a little worried about her friend. Everytime she turned to Numbah Five, she heard the growl. Then she noticed something slightly odd. Numbah Five was making the growls! But how could she make the growls? Was it because of the attack? It was still a mystery. Then she heard footsteps from the trees again. Then a loud growl that she heard before. She knew it was the wolf.

"No... no not now." she said.

The wolf might have heard her. So he stopped. The growling, the footsteps, gone! Numbah Five also stopped growling too. Maybe the wolf understood her fear. But it didn't stop him from attacking the girls. Then he appeared from the trees. He still looked the same as he did last time. The odd look was still kept on his face. Numbah Three knew she has been scared a bunch of times, and she had enough. She started to have a rage.

"Go ahead! Attack us! You're just a wolf! What do you do that's so threatening? Nothing! You're just a big, vicious lobo!" she screamed.

He heard the scream again. Numbah Five heard it too. She was amazed. The wolf really wanted to pick up a fight. Under the growl, Numbah Three swore she heard the word "punishment". It was kind of a mumble, but she heard it with both her ears. He paused for a moment to study her. He was looking deep into her eyes. Numbah Five got up with all her strength. But when she stood up, Numbah Three still had her rage. She was breathing deeply, she was facing the wolf, and she stood her ground. The wolf took a small step. Then another. His teeth were foaming with anger.

Numbah Three closed her eyes and prayed that he would just leave her and Numbah Five alone. Numbah Five didn't make a sound. Then the wolf lunged at the two angry girls. But before he could take a small bite, something shot him from behind! It was a huge stream of jalapenio sauce! The girls looked to see who made this. It was Numbah One and Numbah Four! Numbah Three and Numbah Five were more than happy to see them. Numbah Four shot up and fired the wolf with the weapon that shoots bubble-gum.

"I'll hold him off! You get Numbah Three and Numbah Five!" he yelled to Numbah One.

Numbah One rushed to the girls and ushered them out of there. Numbah Five stared at the wolf. It was in great pain from the shootings. Underneath her breath, she spoke,

"You now know what it's like to keep up the pain that you caused!"

Numbah One and Numbah Three didn't quite know what she meant. But she did follow the two kids. As the kids ran out of the trees, Numbah Four holded his fire to look at the injured wolf.

"Don't you come coming around messing with my friends! You crudy part adult!" he screamed.

"Part Adult?" Numbah Three and Numbah Five both said together.

"We'll expain later. Let's get outta here!" Numbah One yelled.

The wolf couldn't take the pain that he has recieved. So he ran off. Numbah Four ran towards the direction of where his friends were. They were inside a den that they found. It must have been the wolf's den. But that didn't matter. The boys noticed the scratches and claw marks on Numbah Five. That struck them. If these came from the wolf, she was a goner.

"What happened to you, Numbah Five?" Numbah One asked her.

"That wolf attacked me not too long ago." she answered.

Numbah Four gasped. They were too late. Numbah Five was in deep trouble.

"Speaking of wolves, what did you mean about part adult, Numbah Four?" Numbah Three asked her.

The girls were painfuly tired. But Numbah One and Numbah Four knew that they must know about the experiments. They had no choice, but to explain the problem.
