Escaping to A World Unknown

A/N More of the story!

In this chapter K.W wants to get married to Kaci but Carol is stopping him because he's still young but K.W is confident that the love he has for Kaci is pure.

I wonder what will happen........

A few days had passed since Max had decided to stay and live on the island with the Wild Things but he smiled seeing Douglas running around being chased by Marc.

He sighed as he joined Ira and the others but were constructing a giant tree house for Max and his kids to live in but Carol noticed that K.W was distracted but knew what was going on because he wanted to marry Kaci but was secretly afraid knowing that like humans, they weren't allowed to get married until they were older but the teenage Wild Thing considered himself an adult in his mind even if the others didn't think so but Katharine didn't mind knowing how much K.W and Kaci cared about each other.

But she and Carol had been arguing over this matter but Max understood that Carol cared about K.W and didn't want him hurt along with his feelings but he smiled seeing Kari playing with other young Wild Things but remembered when she was shy and wouldn't play with anybody back home but glad that they'd decided to stay but saw Kaci with K.W but she was very quiet but understood as she was still adjusting to being a Wild Thing like him and his children.

"Are you okay?" Katharine asked her.

Kaci nodded in reply.

"I'm just not used to this yet.

I love K.W with all my heart but Carol won't let us marry." she answered.

The older Wild Thing female understood as they heard howling from where Max and the others had been building the house as it was finished but Carol sighed not wanting to make K.W run off again but needed to talk to him.

Max watched as they left.......

Carol sighed as he and K.W were walking through the landscape of the island but the older Wild Thing knew that his young friend was in love with Kaci but understood.

"Why are you so concerned about me and Kaci getting married?

It's something we want to do." the young Wild Thing told him.

Carol sighed knowing that but saw Kaci in a tree but she looked peaceful but K.W saw her smile as he heard her hum.

"I don't want you to be hurt.

We're a family and I don't want you or your feelings to get hurt." Carol answered.

K.W then saw him leave to talk to Katharine about this but Max saw both Kaci and K.W playing.

It made him think of him when he and his wife were in love but shook the thought away as he heard the others call him.......

Later that night as the sun was setting, Max watched as his kids had fallen asleep in bed but smiled.

He was amazed by what Marc and Kari had done by reawakening him by going here to where his friends lived but was hungry as his furry silver stomach rumbled but saw a fire in the distance and a few miles away from the tree house he and his kids lived in but smiled hearing K.W and the others laughing and talking while they sat around the fire waiting for Carol to return with food but Max saw Kaci and K.W sitting together beside the fire but had a feeling that they were allowed to be married but he heard soft howling as Carol returned with a burlap bag full of food but Max was amazed seeing it was food from his old world but K.W smirked knowing that Carol had left the island to get the food.

"Did any humans follow you?" Judith asked as Carol shook his head.

"I'm not so sure.

I was too busy getting food to notice." he answered.

"Max did your kids get anything to eat yet?" Katharine asked the silver furred Wild Thing.

Max shook his head.

"No they didn't.

I'll go wake them up." he answered leaving them and going to his tree house.

But he noticed that they were already awake as he hugged them.

"Carol brought food.

The others are around the fire." Max told them.

Marc and Kari then followed their father but they heard footsteps and Max gasped seeing a human girl with long brown hair, sea green eyes, slender wearing a denim jacket with jeans and a T-shirt but she was in awe at them.

"We should tell the others.

They're going to want to know that another kid got to the island." Marc said as Max agreed.

He then watched as the girl followed them but didn't seem afraid of them.

But Carol and the others were surprised to see her with Max and his kids..........
