Beastfire: Here's chapter 37! Sorry it took so long, but I've been busy...(cut to shot of Beastfire watching both Ring movies) Uh...we can edit that, right? Oh, well...ENJOY!

Ivy was carrying Frus, who was now asleep and curled up into her fur. She smiled to herself and brushed a little dirt from the fur on his face. He sighed happily in his sleep, using a little bit of Ivy's hair for a blanket. She allowed it and kept walking. Maria was reading the map...or at least trying to. Her map reading skills left much to be desired.

"Why don't I read the map?" offered Saga.

Maria handed the map to him and soon, they reached their destination. They looked for the restorative, and didn't find much of anything. That was when Ivy caught a glimpse of a VERY familiar book. There, staring her in the face, was the book that had started this whole thing. She screamed in frustration, and Frus woke up crying.

"NICE GOIN'!" shouted Sprx, covering his ears.

Ivy was attempting to calm the baby down, and actually succeeded after a while.

"THIS is the restorative?" Maria asked, rather surprised.

Ivy just shrugged next, picked it up, and found what she'd assumed to be the right spell.

"ERESSE AL OMOU!" she yelled.

She was sent flying backwards, as an invisible force ripped Frus from her arms. He was sent flying behind a shrub, where a bright light shot out in all directions.

"YES! I'm me again!" announced Frus. "Wait...why do I feel taller? And really cold?"

When the light died down, behind the shrub stood a really muscular man with dark skin, long thick silver hair, the ears of an elf, and reddish-brown eyes...in the buff. More confusion ensued. Maria left and came back with some clothes, handing them to the now-human Frus. It took a while, but he managed to get them on correctly.

Suddenly, a small figure ran over to Ivy, book still in her hands. It was strong, had black and blood red fur, and harsh green eyes. This was yet another mongoose, and he had his eyes on a certain meerkat. Without hesitation, he wrapped one arm around her waist and took the book with the other. He too, was alive, and lived just outside of Shuggazoom.

"Hello, beautiful," he purred into Ivy's ear.

"Who do you think you are?" she demanded.

"I'm Trevrep."

"Well, lemmie go!"

"No."

Ivy managed to twist out of his grasp as he was reading a spell to return home. She skidded on the ground and Trevrep was gone with the book. Sprx stood over her.

"This is all your fault, you little moron!" the red monkey yelled.

He was soon backhanded, and Ivy was lifted from the ground. Sprx glared up at Frus, who was setting Ivy upon his shoulder.

"Leave her alone, Sprx," he told the primate, "and let's just look for a way home. We can worry about getting me back to normal later."

So they, they sat there thinking, Frus absentmindedly petting Ivy, not that she was complaining.

Beastfire: And that's the new chapter! Please review! Emec, I hope you update soon!
