They made it back to Care-a-Lot as Cheer Bear, Champ Bear, Love-a-Lot Bear, Tenderheart Bear, Brave Heart Lion and Lotsa Heart Elephant landed in Care-a-Lot and they managed to get Murphy there safely.
"You found the kid?" said Grumpy Bear looking like he was feeling better.
"That we did. And that's the truth." answered Lotsa Heart Elephant.
Cheer Bear, Champ Bear, Love-a-Lot Bear, Tenderheart Bear, Brave Heart Lion and Lotsa Heart Elephant managed to pulled Murphy out from the Rainbow Roller car and placed him down to lay him down on his back to the cloud like ground as they all gathered around him.
Brave Heart Lion, Cheer Bear, Tenderheart Bear, Friend Bear, Champ Bear, Grumpy Bear, Lotsa Heart Elephant, Bright Heart Raccoon and Love-a-Lot Bear all gathered around the still unconscious Murphy as they appeared worried and concerned about him as only a few of them saw how he lost consciousness. But everyone saw just how beautiful and handsome he looked. The thick, long, beautiful blonde hair, his perfectly chiseled face and facial features. It was like he was having the hair, face, body and beautiful appearance of a God which he looked blessed with the appearance.
"What happened to him?" asked Grumpy Bear curiously.
"Whoa! He looks beautiful for a human." said Friend Bear looking like she was blown away by his beauty like everyone else was.
"His name is Murphy." said Brave Heart Lion. "But we might need to be a little sensitive with him when he wakes up."
"Did he hurt himself or did someone hurt him and resulted in him crying?" asked Bright Heart Raccoon.
Cheer Bear, Champ Bear, Love-a-Lot Bear, Tenderheart Bear, Brave Heart Lion and Lotsa Heart Elephant shook their heads in response. Tenderheart Bear explained everything that happened when they finally found Murphy and judging by what little they've learned. They suspected that Murphy seems to be more comfortable around speaking to a girl or possibly might show submission to a girl in terms of getting him to talk or in terms of getting him to respond, how stoic he was, rarely showing any emotion, when they asked him if he'd like to talk about his problems, he chose not to talk about them, showing slight shyness around Cheer Bear, and how he shown to be dismissive when they spoke of anything involving divine intervention and the brief angry outburst he shown.
But what Tenderheart Bear told them next about his fear when they heard that creepy laughter that got closer to them and how desperate he became for their help or for them to take him somewhere that's safe. But he did mentioned that Murphy got a little sick and lost consciousness afterwards.
Explaining all of that only gave them all some suspicions, ideas or theories to what could be Murphy's problem or what he's going through. They all looked at the still unconscious boy.
"We found a backpack on him when we were taking him with us." said Love-a-Lot bear pulling out the bag.
The backpack was a green camouflage bag and it wasn't that big but it was big enough to put anything in there if anyone was going on a hike in the woods for a few hours or days.
"Is Murphy alright?" asked Bright Heart Raccoon curiously.
"He seems to be alright." said Cheer Bear.
They heard something that sounded like rumbling as they heard it coming from Murphy. The first to figure out what was causing it was Cheer Bear who knelt down next to Murphy and placed her ear near his stomach, hearing the churning and rumbling coming from his stomach and she let out a sigh of relief as she got up.
"He's just hungry. It's his stomach." said Cheer Bear reassuring them.
They looked to see that Murphy's lips were moving and they were hearing something mysterious being said out of his mouth. They listened to him as he spoke. What he said sounded cryptic.
"Yellow eyes are glowing. Yellow eyes are glowing in the dark." said Murphy sounding cryptic.
"You didn't say his voice was so deep for a kid his age." said Grumpy Bear looking surprised.
"Are you sure he's not a teenager?" said Friend Bear with a raised eyebrow.
"He's no teenager. He's too young. Probably two years shy of teen years." described Brave Heart Lion. "But I wonder what he meant by yellow eyes in the dark?"
The first of them to make an attempt to wake up Murphy was Brave Heart Lion as he approached Murphy and reached out to probably gently shake him awake but his paw like hand only made it within eight inches of the human's chest but than Murphy jerked awake, took hold of Brave Heart Lion's paw. He still had that stoic face.
"Relax, it's alright. Your safe here." Brave Heart Lion reassured.
Murphy removed his hand from Brave Heart Lion's paw. He sat up and saw the magical bears all around him. He turned to Love-a-Lot Bear who had his bag, holding his hand out for her to give it back to him.
"I'd like to have that back." said Murphy.
Love-a-Lot Bear handed his bag over to him and Murphy pulled the zipper open and looked around inside it. The only thing he had in his bag was a necklace chain that had a picture frame connected to it but there was a cover over it. A one liter water canteen. A few pairs of clean clothes that consisted of a few pairs of shirts, blue jean pants, a few pairs of white socks and underwear and what looked like an empty box of granola bars, he looked through the box and found it to be empty. He shook his head in disappointment.
"I'm out." said Murphy.
"Out of what?" asked Tenderheart Bear.
"Out of food. My canteen if half full." answered Murphy sounding annoyed.
Murphy's stomach grumbled loudly for all to hear. They could tell he needed food in his belly. They were about to resolve Murphy's hunger but that's when they heard a small bell ringing like the bell of a bike. They all turned to see Treat Heart Pig coming along with a tray cart full of pies as she came along their way, pushing the cart on wheels towards them.
"Anyone hungry for pie? Figured someone could use something sweet this morning, well, even though it's the start of noon, but better late than never." said Treat Heart Pig with a chuckle.
Treat Heart Pig made her way over to them and stopped as she saw Murphy. She saw how beautiful he looked and blushed a bit while she too heard his stomach growling loudly.
"I think our visitor is hungry." chuckled Treat Heart Pig.
"Anything, as long as it's food. Haven't eaten since last night." said Murphy holding onto his stomach as if fighting the urge to regurgitate.
She had given Murphy a large strawberry pie with a spoon. Murphy wasted no time at all and devoured the entire pie as he didn't spill any crumbs or pieces of the pie anywhere on himself or anywhere on the ground. He devoured the entire pie till it was nothing but an empty pie tray. They all couldn't believe he eaten the entire pie without making a mess. His stomach satisfied and feeling better. Even his face didn't have a mess.
"Is this the child you guys spoke of?" asked Treat Heart Pig.
"This is Murphy." said Grumpy Bear.
"Thanks for the pie. I haven't had pie since..." paused Murphy.
"Since when?" asked Treat Heart Pig curiously.
There was a pause of silence before Murphy spoke again.
"No comment." said Murphy dismissing what he was about to say. "Where am I?"
"Your in Care-a-Lot. We figured it would be a good idea to take you with us here. We have no idea what that scary laugh was or where it came from." explained Cheer Bear.
Murphy let out a sigh of relief as if relieved that no one saw the source of that scary laughter. Murphy shown to be visibly shaken in his eyes for a brief moment but that's when Cheer Bear remembered that Murphy felt a bit more comfortable around her. She approached him as well as she gently took hold of his right hand as a sign of trust or comfort.
It didn't look like it or he didn't show it but Murphy felt a sense of comfort from Cheer Bear when she took hold of his hand with her soft, warm paw. He looked away as if trying to hide his blushing cheeks.
"Murphy, we're only trying to help you with your problem. That scary laughter that you were afraid of when you instructed us to take you with us. That, and what you said while you were out cold sort of has us worried." said Cheer Bear with a soothing tone as she attempted to console Murphy.
His face was wide eyed as if he tried to remain calm like they found out a secret that he didn't want them to find out about himself.
"What did I say?" asked Murphy feeling tense.
"You said "Yellow eyes are glowing. Yellow eyes are glowing in the dark" ." revealed Champ Bear. "We don't know what that means but do you know, sports fan?"
Murphy's now alarmed face turned to Champ Bear which Champ Bear adjusted his red sports headband nervously.
"Is he scared? I think what I told him about what he said when unconscious might be scaring him." said Champ Bear looking a bit guilty. "We're not trying to scare you, Murphy. We just wonder if you know what it means or if it means anything to you."
"I don't know." answered Murphy his face going back to being stoic. "I do remember seeing a pair of scary looking yellow eyes when ever I was somewhere that was dark a few times. But other than that. I can't remember anything more."
Champ Bear was the next to approach Murphy as he raised his paws up to show he wasn't going to hurt Murphy to reassure him. With a bit of comfort from Cheer Bear, Murphy allowed Champ Bear to examine him as Champ Bear placed his paws on Murphy's face as he began to feel around for any bumps on the boy's head.
"Did you happen to hit your head or suffer any sharp blows to the head recently?" asked Champ Bear curiously.
"Negative." answered Murphy.
"There's no signs of physical trauma to the head. I would've expected any form of head trauma or head injuries that could've caused any forms of temporary memory loss." explained Champ Bear. "But you got quite the beautiful full head of hair though. You got hair like Brave Heart's mane."
"I don't think we have any bloodline relation or any genetic link to each other." Murphy told them.
Champ Bear removed his hands from the boy and Murphy ended up burping out loud. They all heard him burp loudly which he immediately excused himself from it.
"I think the strawberry pie filled him up." said Treat Heart Pig with a brief laugh.
"That would be the strawberries from the pie. Strawberries are some of the fruits that causes gas within the body when consumed since it contains a compound called fructosamine which is the same compound that is in brussels sprouts, cauliflower and cabbage. In those vegetables, the plants defense mechanism creates this chemical when it detects an invader like bacteria or insects trying to eat its nutrients. They'll ether cause one to burp or audible flatulence. Farting in simpler terms." explained Murphy as he analyzed the knowledge he explained.
They were all wide eyed at his knowledge. An eleven year old boy like Murphy being this intelligent wasn't something they'd expected. They knew some kids at a young age were smarter than others their own age but Murphy was showing a higher level of intelligence than any kid they ever seen.
"I take it you read this from a book?" guessed Lotsa Heart Elephant.
"Affirmative." answered Murphy.
"Murphy, we know you're going through a rough time but can you tell us why you were alone on the streets when we found you?" asked Tenderheart Bear curiously. "Who takes care of you?"
Murphy became silent once again and didn't respond. They knew that his sudden silence and unresponsiveness had to mean something serious. They started to become under the impression that he had no one to look after him or no home to go to.
"Murphy, if your in some sort of trouble. You can tell us about it and we can help you somehow." said Cheer Bear trying to get through to Murphy.
Cheer Bear did the one thing that she knew could get him to open up and it was to hug him. She hugged Murphy in her loving arms which he was blushing so deeply that his heart raced a bit faster from being embraced by Cheer Bear.
"It's been following me. Them yellow eyes have been following me and that scary laughter. I'm scared." said Murphy slightly relenting. "I don't know what it is or what it wants. But my memory on some things have faded out. It would probably take me a minute to think and regain the lost memories. But I don't want to go back out there alone."
Murphy hugged Cheer Bear back as they all could see a hint of fear in Murphy and they knew that what he told them was the first step in getting them to help him.
"That's the first step. Looks like Murphy's taking the first step in talking about his problems in order for us to help him." said Tenderheart Bear with a optimistic notion.
"That's at least somewhat of a miracle." said Bright Heart Raccoon.
Murphy's facial expression went back to stoicism but with a hint of annoyance. He let out a groan and shook his head disapprovingly.
"That was no miracle. That was therapeutic communication between people with kind hearts full of compassionate emotion. Emotions are a natural instinctive state of mind deriving from one's circumstances, mood, or relationships with others." said Murphy expressing his intelligence while dismissing the belief of anything that's miraculous.
"Murphy, is there other things that's bothering you. Seems like when someone brings up faith in the big guy or anything if divine intervention, you seem to be a bit dismissive." Bright Heart Raccoon pointed out.
"I'm pointing out factual information and sticking with logic. Anything miraculous is nothing more than something that comes from hard work, factual information from research and that of the educated mind." said Murphy.
"It was probably a miracle that we found you when you needed us." stated Bright Heart Raccoon. "I show a high level intelligence here and there but sometimes some things happen that even someone as smart as me can't understand nor explain. Sometimes someone higher up there might be getting involved."
Murphy got up from where he sat and stood up on his feet as if he was ready to storm off. He was ready to end the conversation or the topic of it at this point.
"I'm done talking about this topic." said Murphy getting impatient.
"But Murphy, we're just stating that it's a possibility that maybe we were sent to help you for a reason." Bright Heart Raccoon stated again.
"STOP IT!" shouted Murphy.
They all looked at him with wide eyed surprise but Murphy immediately shown shock from his outburst and his impatience with him. He began to breathe in and out as if hyperventilating and without warning, he fainted to the ground, unconscious out of shock from his reaction. They all rushed over to him and tried to make sure he was alright.
They took him to the Hall of Hearts to lay him down in a bed somewhere. They figured his sudden fainting meant he needed some medical attention. But they started to see that who or what this "It" was that Murphy described to them as these scary yellow eyes and a scary laugh that was following him had to be someone or something dangerous following him but they also began to suspect that his angry, impatient outbursts when ever anyone mentions anything about divine intervention meant something that they suspected about him but it was also something they hoped they'd be wrong about. But the important thing they all knew was that someone or something dangerous is stalking Murphy but just like Murphy, no one else knows why. The Care Bears could tell he needs their help now more than ever and that Murphy may not look like it but he's scared.
