Alice found Danny in his surgery, Reego's (sorry about spelling) goat (new one) needed examined. Danny suspected she was pregnant. I suddenly felt an empathy with the goat.

"Hi Danny" Alice said.

"Oh hello, sleeping beauty it's good to see you finally awake." he gave her a grin.

For some unknown reason Alice felt herself bristle at this comment but she temped down her frustrations.

"Thanks for the lie in but next time could you wake me up please?"

"Yeah sure" he replied. "But have you tried waking you up it's near on impossible!" he laughed.

The frustration Alice had squashed down reared up again and she was unable to keep a rein on her temper any longer.

"So sorry to be such an inconvenience to you!" she practically snarled at him, she was even shocked at herself.

Danny looked shocked too, he also looked unsure at what he had done wrong.

"Alice I'm sorry, are you ok…..you've been acting really weird lately."

The concern in his eyes melted her heart.

"I'm sorry for snapping too I'm not myself recently but it should be over soon." If it isn't what she thought it was she silently added. She tried to muster up a smile but it didn't feel like it reached her eyes.

"I had noticed that. Well Reego your goat is most definitely pregnant."

How I wish it was that easy for me Alice mused. Reego picked up his goat and left the surgery.

"Thanks Danny." he shouted.

"No bother Reego."

"I'm heading into Jo'burg for a few hours, do you need anything?"

"No no I'm fine" he replied "I'll see you later.

"Do you need me for anything later? Alice asked.

"No but keep your radio handy, you never know if something is going to happen."

"I shouldn't be long anyway." she told him.

"Ok Alice don't worry about it, Love you."

Alice felt tears gather, God the smallest things set her off these days, I'm definitely getting that test TODAY! she thought.

"Love you too," she then rubbed her eyes. "Sorry dust blew in my eyes."

"Ooooooooo-kay…. Except there's no wind today" he smirked at her.

"Ha-ha funny Mr Trevanion, see you later."

She gave him a quick kiss and left the surgery, Danny smiled, shook his head and cleared away his equipment.

A few minutes later Dupe entered the surgery.

"Where'd Alice go?" Dupe asked.

"Just to Jo'burg."

"Oh, ok I need you. There's fences down, might be poachers."

"Ok , I'm right there!" "Olivia," Danny shouted "Feed the animals for me, I need to go and repair some fencing."

"Okay" she yelled.

Dupe and Danny climbed in the truck and drove off. They arrived at the fences and started mending.

"We need to keep an eye here, the poachers might return," We had previously had problems with poachers and I didn't want a repeat!" Danny told Dupe.

"Yeah" Dupe said.

"Although none of the big 5 animals are here." Danny commented.

"How's Alice?" Dupe asked.

"Ok, she hasn't been herself recently, but she said she's getting better now."

"She didn't eat any breakfast this morning." Dupe mused.

"Really." Danny replied.

"Yeah Olivia said she went abit green and then bolted.

"Ha-ha you make her sound like a gazelle or a bless block, don't worry about Alice she's fine now." Danny laughed.

Over In Some Trees.

"Trevanion is laughing. LAUGHING!" the voyeur raged. After what he has done to me, he won't be laughing long. he vowed. I WILL have my revenge, I'm going to take EVERYTHING from him! I stroke my gun lovingly, I could just pick him off right here and no-one would know, just the old man but he's easily fixed. He took aim first at his head, then his abdomen, then finally decide on his heart. One shot straight through, DEATH instantly, his finger caressed the trigger, it tightens instinctively sooooooooooo easy he mused. NO! he must suffer more, my plan is in motion, the fences were only the beginning. I can hardly wait I pick up my bag and hear the bottle of solution rattle, that combined with the tranquilizer darts will cause plenty of havoc. Time to dart me a few animals.

Ha-ha it has begun.
