The knocking was from a wolf who was putting a sign on the den. He pounded on the dens outer with a hammer trying to nail in this sign.
Humphrey and Kate looked at what he was doing. It was a big white sign that had the word "Condemned" on it.
"Condemned? What the hell is this?!" Humphrey shouted.
"Not in front of the baby…." Kate said as she covered her daughter's ears.
"Sorry… but what's this? Why are you condemning this den?"
"What's that mean, 'condemned'?"
"It means that this den is not suitable for living and you have to evacuate." The wolf said.
"Says who?"
"Says the new leader… Nigel… he's condemning most of these dens…"
"Oh, no… this has gone too far!" Humphrey then madly marched to where Nigel was. Brianna walked through the forest and found a pile of dirt that was raised.
She then started to dig. She dug until she found what she was looking for.
"This guy knows everything about helping others… maybe he can help me." Brianna said as she dug.
Humphrey then went to the throne of Nigel. He looked up and saw him sipping from a coconut.
"Hey!" Humphrey yelled.
Nigel opened his eyes and looked down. He saw Humphrey standing there with Kate and Claudette.
"Ah, another loyal subject…. What do you want?" Nigel asked.
"I came to stop this. Stop you…" Humphrey said menacingly.
Nigel then stood up and faced him. He then went down off his throne and went up to Humphrey. He unsheathed his claws and dug in into Humphrey's arm.
Humphrey howled in pain. Nigel then stopped and backed away. He looked at Humphrey in a sick, twisted pleasure. He loved when others were hurt.
That's what he wanted to see. Humphrey then stopped clutching his arm and looked at Nigel in anger.
Humphrey then pounced on him and wanted to slash him. He was so close to slashing him, but he didn't.
Instead he got off of him and sheathed his claws. "I would never…" Humphrey said.
Nigel just looked at him still in his sick twisted way. Nigel then pounced on Humphrey and started to slash him.
Humphrey tried to get him off, but he couldn't. Nigel kept injuring him and brutally wounding him.
Nigel then stopped and stepped back to see his creation. He loved it. This gave him a sick pleasure.
Humphrey then fell to the floor and gasped.
