I Think I've Got You Beat
A/N Here's another one. In it Snowgre and Artie find a baby ogre but through this Snowgre learns a painful secret.
It was the middle of the night and Shrek and the others were having anoth er camp out.
Snowgre was asleep but was woken up by the sound of crying.
"What's going on?
I'd better get Artie to help me find out! He thought as he and Artie snuck out of the tent.
"Where do you think it came from?" Artie asked him.
"The middle of the forest.
I hope Shrek's not too mad at us." Snowgre told him as they walked into the middle of the forest.
They then saw somebody leave something.
Iy was a female ogre that looked like Snowgre.
Artie saw the shock in Snowgre's eyes at that.
"Good bye my dear.
I hope your brother Snowgreia is safe where ever he is.
Maybe he has a better life now because of what I did.
I will always love you." She said to a bundle as she left.
Artie then went towards it.
"W-What is it?" Snowgre asked him.
"See for yourself." He replied softly as Snowgre heard soft babbling.
It was a baby ogre with snow white fur and green eyes like Snowgre's.
"We'd better show the others.
What're we going to tell them?" Artie asked.
"W-We're just going to tell them we found it in the woods.
I'm not telling them the other part about my mom leaving him there." Snowgre told him sadly.
Artie understood how he felt the next morning as the others woke up.
"Where did it go?" he asked himself leaving the tent and hearing Fiona laugh.
"Where did this cute baby come from?
He's cute!" she said to him.
Shrek sighed at that.
"His Mom Inmara left him to fend on his own.
She can't handle lots of her kids so she... abandons them in the forest but others find them, give them good lives like Snowgre." HE ANSWERED.
Fiona stared at him in shock.
"You mean... this is Snowgre's brother?" she asked him.
"Yep he is but Snowg never knew and I hope he doesn't.
It would be too hard for him to understand, why his Mom left him in the forest." Shrek replied.
"Umm... Shrek?" Artie said.
"Yes Artie what is it?" he replied.
"Snowgre... already knows.
We saw his Mom leaving his brother there.
He's been taking it hard ever since." the young king replied softly.
Shrek sighed deeply.
He'd a feeling this would happen some day.
"I'm gonna have to talk to him about this." he thought as he saw Fiona hold Snowgre's brother.
Later Snowgre had locked himself in his room and was refusing to come out.
"He's so cute.
It's hard to believe he's related to Snowgre." Donkey thought as he and Puss watched the little ogre baby in the crib the triplets used to sleep in.
"Did you talk to Snowgre yet?" Fiona asked Shrek.
"No, no yet.
I've got to get him to come out of his room.
He's been really sad ever since he found out." he replied.
She understood.
Shrek then saw somebody watching them from outside.
It was Imara. Snowgre's mom.
"What's she doing here?
She must be checking up on Snowgre and his brother.
I'd better talk to her." he thought as he went outside.
"Hello Shrek.
It's been a long time." she said to him.
She had grey- white fur with emerald eyes and was slender.
"Yeah the last time you were around these parts was when you left Snowgre as a six years old in the forest.
How can you do that to your kids?
Snowgre just found out the truth last night when he and Artie found his brother last night in the forest.
He's confused and hurting right now.
It's your fault this happened.
I may be family but I'm not taking care of your mistakes." he told her.
A look of sadness was in her eyes.
"I-I know I hurt him by leaving him but I was doing what I thought was right." she whispered sadly.
Snowgre had heard Shrek yell and was curious.
He then went outside and gasped.
"Mom?
Why is she here?
I hope Shrek kicks her out of here." he thought as he hid behind the onion car but Shrek's ears picked up his breathing.
"Snowg I know you're there." he said.
Snowgre sighed revealing himself.
Imara gasped at him.
"Snowgre?
You're just as handsome as your father." she said to him.
Snowgre just looked at the ground.
"Maybe I should leave you guys alone for a while." Shrek told them going inside.
There was an awkard silence.
"Mom... why did you leave me out there if you cared about me?" he said.
Imara bit her lip at that.
"I do.
It's just your father and I have a lot of kids and we couldn't handle them all so we left them in the forest for others to find, to raise them, give them good lives." she told him.
"Not good enough Mom." Snowgre replied to her bitterly going back inside.
Fiona saw the sadness in Snowgre's eyes as he slammed his bedroom door shut.
Artie was moved by his boy friend's sadness.
He knew hiow he felt never knowing his own father.
"Snowgre let me in please!" he egged knocking.
Shrek saw the door open and Artie walk in.
Snowgre had buried himself in blankets and hiding his sadness.
"Snowgre it's okay to feel sad.
I do because... I don't know my real family ever.
But Shrek and the others are like a second family to me." Artie reassured him.
Snowgre poked his head out from under the blankets.
"Y-Yeah I know.
It's just why would she if she loved me?
What if she didn't?" he replied to him sadly.
"He's confused, lost inside.
He needs help now.
The only love he knows is from me and the others.
I wish there was something I could do." he thought as he sat with Snowgre holding his hand, hugging him.
Imara sighed sadly leaving.
"I'm so sorry honey.
So sorry." she thought leaving the swamp...
Wow poor Snowgre.
Let's hope Artie can help him through this.
Tell me what you think
