Chapter Two
Fetch!
Later that day, everyone was just kind of hanging around the clearing, when Peaches came running in.
"Hey, Mom," she said. "I invited Ethan over later, since you and Dad said that you didn't mind, and I was wondering if we could have a fire tonight."
"Sure honey," Ellie said. "I'm sure Uncle Diego and Sid wouldn't mind making one."
Diego jumped up smiling. "Did someone say make a fire?"
"Yeah," Ellie said looking at Diego a little strangely. "Peaches invited Ethan over tonight, and they want to have a fire. You wouldn't mind making one, would you?"
"Would I?!" Diego grinned then stopped. "I mean, no, I suppose I wouldn't. C'mon Sid lets go get the kindling."
Diego and Sid walked off towards the forest.
"Wait a minute." Shira walking towards Ellie. "Are senses playing tricks on me, or did Diego just seem happy to do something with Sid."
"No, it's true; they're always the ones who build the fires. I must say though, it does take them a while to gather the wood." Ellie said thoughtful.
"Hmmm…" Shira said puzzled. "I think I'm going to go see what takes them so long. I'll be back Ellie."
"Ok." Ellie said as Shira headed off towards the woods.
"Go long!" Shira heard Sid yell. What the heck could be going on over there? She thought. As Shira crawled through the undergrowth, she could see Diego's paws flash by, before coming back a few seconds later. Hmmm…this should be good. Shira thought before she poked her head through the bushes.
She then heard Sid ask, "Ok, are you ready for the record breaker?" Record breaker. What?
Then she heard Diego reply. "Oh yeah, I'm ready."
Then she saw something very surprising. Sid, picked up a thin piece of wood, and threw into the air. As soon as it left his had, Diego started running after it. What on Earth? She thought. Then since this piece of wood was flying quite high, Diego launched into the air, and caught it in his mouth!
Shira cocked her head in surprise. Did he just catch that in his mouth? Diego; of all animals. She never would have thought him to do that.
"We did it!" Diego yelled.
"Yes!" Sid said. "Finally! That's the farthest, and highest, we've ever gone!"
"Yeah, ok, though we should probably be heading back now, because otherwise everyone will think I ate you." Diego said as he picked up the bag that the logs were in.
"Right…" Sid said with a gulp as he followed Diego out of the forest.
Hmmm… Shira thought. That was odd. She turned around and headed back toward the clearing since there was nothing more to watch here.
Ok, yes, it's a little short, but I needed to get this part in there, because it will be referenced later, and it would make no sense unless you knew what I was talking about. And yes, Sid and Diego can get along; they just have to have a common goal it seams. lol So, that's all for now. Chapter three will be out shortly. :)
