Back in Nevada, at was still dark being close to dawn, and in their hidden den site, Blue, Amber and the youngster were peacefully asleep. The juvenile was curled up next to her mother, and Amber stirred as she woke up and lets out a yawn-like growl.

She then checks on her egg safely hidden in the nest, and turns to Blue and her daughter still asleep, she then got up and quietly begins to head out of the bus to begin hunting and territory patrol. To make sure there aren't any major threats from predators like Cougars, and Black Bears, 2 of the few creatures that could threaten them out here, especially Blue's daughter.

Amber scans the nearby area with her sharp vision, even in the low light, she can pick out a slight movement from a distance as her night vision is just as a good as a big cat.

Seeing that the coast was clear, Amber trots to patrol the area.

Close to a half hour later, Amber was still patrolling the forest having no luck of finding prey yet.

But she did find the trail of something else.

She noticed a trail of tracks on the snow and she lowers down and sniffs them and saw they were left by horses. Her sense of smell has also picked up another scent, one of burnt wood.

Amber lightly hissed as she knew it was fire, and it could mean one thing...

Humans were nearby.

Amber sniffs the air and cautious follows the scent.

Before long, Amber arrived at a small clearing as the scent was getting stronger.

Then a small cough caught her attention as she turns towards the direction and went to check it out. Soon she saw a firepit that has been burnt out and smoke lightly billowed as Amber then saw a group of 5 men sleeping unaware of her presence.

Then Amber notice one of them with a snake tattoo by his right eye, and then she picked up a smell that she make her lightly growled.

Guns.

It was then that Amber knew were hunters, and they were a threat to her, Blue and her offspring.

But she knew she would outmatched if they caught her now, so Amber makes the wise choice and begins to sneak away. But then her tail brushed against some rifles placed by a stump and they tipped over and hit the ground with a clutter, and Amber froze as one hunter woke up and then turns to her and yelled.

The other hunters then woke up as Amber leaped over the firepit knocking a water pitcher over as they try to surround her. Amber screeched and then runs off.

"C'mon boys! Let's go!" The lead poacher said.

They then quickly grabbed their gear and saddles and strapped them on their horses and quickly rode off after Amber.

Amber ran at full speed as the hunters chased after her as she glanced back, and then made a sharp turn to her right passing by a boulder. And the poachers quickly turned by the boulder as well.

"Hyah! Hyah!" A poacher yelled.

They then leaped over a shallow ditch and ran off, but then suddenly Amber poked her head out from the ditch growling as she knows ever square inch of the terrain. And then she leaps out and runs after them.

"Where did she go?" A poacher said. "I don't see her."

"We'll find her!" Another said.

Amber quickly caught up to them and approaches one from behind, and planning a little fun. And then the hunter suddenly cried out in pain after Amber nipping him as he fell off his horse and hits the ground. Amber watched as he tumbled and then she sprints forward as the horse watched her go.

And Amber then rushed through the narrow between 2 horses startling them as they whinnied loudly.

"What the hell..." One said.

The horses panicked and bucked as the hunters try to regain control as Amber rushes off leaving them in the dust.

Amber rushed through the forest at full speed and looks back seeing no sign of the hunters. And planning to keep that way, she then heads into the brush where it will be too dense for the poachers to follow her and her tracks.

Towards midmorning, unaware of Amber's poacher escape, the Wild Kratts were by the Tortuga not far from the cabin. Koki and Aviva were outside doing a small tune up on the Gladiator's winch.

"There." Koki said. "That oughta do it."

She then turns the switch as Aviva held the tow cable straight out as it was being reeled in and soon finishes.

"And... done." Aviva announced and secured the hook.

She and Koki then fist-bump each other.

"Guess that's everything now." Koki said and checked her tablet. "Shell panels on the Tortuga inspected, security system in tip-top shape, and supplies fully stocked."

"Zach would definitely be foolish if he decides to show his face around here." Aviva said. "No way his Spy-Bots will get close enough."

"Yeah, we've really up our game this time." Chris said appearing as well as Jimmy. "And good thing too with the world knowing who he and the villains know who they're really are. And that Zach's inventions were considered "weapons are mass destruction"." He made a quote gesture.

"I always knew his inventions are trouble, especially as kids in Science Camp." Aviva said. "I mean, heartlessly using innocent animals as slaves?"

"Well, at least we put him out of business." Chris said. "Along with the other villains."

"I wonder where they are now." Jimmy said.

"Not sure." Koki said. "It's been months since they last pop up on our radar."

"Well, wherever they are, we'll be ready for them." Chris said and turns to Martin. "Right, Martin?"

Martin however was sitting on a log looking all sad holding his CreaturePod looking at something.

"Martin?" Chris said as he turns to him.

"Yeah... great..." Martin lightly chuckled and sadly turns back to his CreaturePod.

"Why so glum?" Aviva asked as they went over to him.

"What's wrong, bro?" Chris asked.

"Oh, well... I was just looking at old pictures on my CreaturePod and found some of a long lost pal of ours." Martin said as they gathered round and looked. "Remember this little Velociraptor?"

They then saw a photo of Amber when she was a youngster at 3 months old.

"Little Amber." Chris said. "How could I forget?"

"Of course, such a cutie." Aviva said remembering the times she was under their wing.

"She was special." Koki said.

"Sure was." Jimmy said.

"Yeah, we haven't seen her since way back then almost 4 years ago." Martin said. "You know she'd be 10 years old now."

"I wonder how our girl is doing?" Chris inquired.

"Do you think he's still out there somewhere in these woods?" Aviva wondered.

"I don't know, but I remember the first time we met her like was yesterday." Martin said thinking back when they first took Amber in under their care. "She's probably a pure-wild Raptor by now."

"Well, at least she's not completely alone out there, wherever she is." Chris said. "She's got Blue to keep her company. Those 2 make an incredible team."

"Yeah, and little did we know it was just the beginning of our adventure with Amber." Martin said thinking back when Amber was young.

"Well, until the next time we see her, at least we still have the Velociraptor Power Suit to remind us of her." Aviva said.

Martin pulled out his Velociraptor Power Disc. "Yeah, we sure do."

"As well as a tooth from her." Chris with his Creature Souvenir Kit in his hand.

"Yeah." Martin said and looked back at the forest. "I just wish I'd knew where she is."

Later, at the cabin, Maisie heads outside with a piece of toast with jelly on it and heads to the firepit and fiddles a stick around. And Chris appeared and placed a few pieces of wood.

A bird was heard squawking in the distance, and then Blue's daughter suddenly appeared from the treeline as Blue was nowhere to be seen. As she was probably away hunting with Amber and the youngster wandered away from the nest site and stares at the 2 humans curiously.

Chris placed the last log piece down and sat down and brought out a piece of beef jerky as a snack. The little Raptor titled her head curiously, and Chris was about to take a bite from it when he then spotted a Red-tailed Hawk perched on a tree branch.

Looking at the hawk, he lowered his arm and unknowingly held out near the Raptor. She then quietly nears him and snatches the piece from his hand as Chris didn't notice.

Soon the hawk flew off and Chris watched it fly off, he then closed his eyes still unaware of the missing jerky piece. And then chomps down hard in thin air.

"Hey, where my jerky piece go?" Chris said baffled.

The baby Raptor then lets out a yapping shriek finally announcing her presence as Maisie gasped as she and Chris turn to her.

"Whoa." Chris gasped amazed. "A baby Raptor. You look like you're only about 5 months old. But, hey, where's your mama?"

The little Raptor took a step back as she chittered and squawked.

Maisie stood up and slowly went up to the little Raptor as she squawked and chittered.

"Hey." Maisie greeted the small and inquisitive dinosaur as she snorted.

The young Raptor stared at them and lightly squawked.

"Wait a minute." Chris said noticing something the youngster.

"You look just like Blue." Maisie said to the juvenile.

The little Raptor stared at her and tilted her head and let out a chirping shriek as Maisie turns to her toast as the juvenile was staring at it.

"This?" Maisie said as the small Velociraptor's interest sparked. "You wanna try it? Okay."

She then slowly reaches her toast out the youngster as she breathes tremblingly shakily. Even though she was small, the Raptor can still give a bite.

And then the juvenile snatches the toast with a growl as Maisie jumped with a gasp as the baby Raptor chomps down on the toast as Ravens were heard squawking and something was moving from the treeline in the shadows.

"Huh." Maisie lightly smiled.

Just then, the youngster turns and heads over to Blue and Amber who have just returned a hunt and came looking for her as Blue lets out a screeching roar as the youngster got behind her.

"Oh, boy." Chris said not liking this.

"Maisie, don't move." Owen warned.

Owen and Martin appeared as Blue screeches a roar as even Amber growled heavily.

"Hey, girl." Owen greeted Blue in a calm but authoritative tone. "Staying out of trouble?"

"Long time, no see, Amber." Martin said.

Blue snarled aggressively as she and Amber stood between them and the youngster.

"She had a baby." Maisie said stunned. "That's impossible."

Almost as if she understood what she said and offended, Blue aggressively shrieks out loudly at her as Maisie jumped a bit.

"Back up." Owen demanded.

Blue stepped back as Amber growled.

"They made Blue in a lab, remember?" Martin said. "All the dinosaurs had their genome filled with gaps from other animals. You never know with that stuff. No offense."

"None taken." Maisie said. "She won't hurt us, right?" As she remembered Blue saving them from the Indoraptor, Obsidian Indo-Fury 4 years ago.

"Oh, you're damn right she will." Owen said not taking breaking eye-contact from Blue. "Just breathe. If you don't, she'll think you're scared."

"I am scared." Maisie said.

Blue screeches at them.

"Nah. She doesn't need to know that." Owen said.

He then shook his head, and Blue backed away and screeches to her daughter, she then squawked and runs off as Amber nudges the youngster to follow as she chittered and they head off as well as they watched them vanish into the trees.

"Her nest has got to be nearby." Owen said.

"Must be a secluded area, similar to how wolves have a den site." Chris said. "Hidden from view from other animals."

"We gotta check it out." Martin said.

"Maisie, get inside." Owen said.

"I'm coming with you." Maisie protested.

"What did I just say?" Owen said turning to her.

All annoyed, Maisie storms back to the cabin.

Soon, Owen, Chris and Martin begin to cautiously follow the trackway as though the Brothers followed predators many times, tracking Raptors is a different matter.

From his vantage point on the ridge, the poacher watches as they head into the trees through binoculars. And he lowers them and brought out a walkie-talkie.

"We gotta move." He barked.

"Not yet." A woman's voice said which was his boss. "We need the girl."

Unaware of their situation, Aviva and Koki were in the Tortuga finishing up with putting some adventure gear away in the garage.

"Guys, come in." Chris called.

"Yeah, Chris?" Aviva answered her CreaturePod.

"Can you send us a map of the area within a mile surrounding the cabin?" Martin said.

"Everything, okay?" Koki asked.

"Yeah, we're just tracking something." Chris said.

"Hmm?" Koki shrugged and worked her tablet as she and Aviva stepped outside. "Okay, seems like there's an old bus a half mile out..."

Once gone, something in the shadows flew by and 3 others followed it.

At the cabin, Maisie enters the cabins as Claire trying to make a tea turns to her.

"Hey, what's up?" Claire asked.

Maisie didn't say anything as she enters her room slamming the door as a few objects from a shelf slid off.

"Oh." Claire said.

She then head to the door to see what was wrong, and she opened it and saw Maisie not in her room.

"Maisie?" Claire said and saw another door opened leading outside. "Maisie?"

She then turns to the window and saw Maisie with her bike heading off.

"Mm-mm. Mm-mm." Claire shook her head and got to the front doorway. "Where you going?"

"You can't keep my here." Maisie coldly said having enough of her restriction. "You're not my mother."

Maisie then storms off as Claire just stood there looking hurt.

Through his binoculars, the poacher watched as Maisie heads off almost as if she wouldn't care about being taken.

"She's leaving the house." He reported through his radio.

Unaware of the danger brewing, the young Raptor rushed out from the bus to her mother and squawked as Blue drops a dead Red Fox she caught as Amber was gone and back out hunting for herself and Blue.

The juvenile chittered excitedly of her meal, and she begins to drag her meal away just a few feet. But just before she got start eating, a net hidden in the snow lifts up as the baby shrieks as the net trap was lifted over 20 feet in the air.

Blue shrieks and squawks out in distress as the net was too high for her to jump, and then the red Ford F-Series truck suddenly after the hunters have somehow found the den site. The truck then speeds towards Blue as she failed to see it, and the truck rams her and was knocked off the ledge shrieking as she tumbles down the side of a ravine.

Nearby, Owen, Chris and Martin were still looking for the den as shrieking was heard in the distance, along with indistinct shouting.

"Get in the truck!" A man yelled. "Come on! Let's go!"

Owen, Chris and Martin then saw the poachers grabbing the net being lowered.

"Got it!" A poacher said.

"What the..." Chris said.

They then rushed over.

"Tie it down!" The lead poacher yelled.

"Hold on." Another poacher said.

"Come on, let's go!" The lead poacher said eagerly.

Blue screeches as she desperately tries to climb up the steep side of the ravine trying to save her daughter. But then suddenly, 2 Zachbots appeared from nowhere and then fired electrical beams at her and stuns her.

Owen, Chris and Martin ran through the trees as the hunters struggling to keep the juvenile restrained in a bag.

"Get in!" A hunter said.

"Come on!" Another said.

The truck begins to head off as Owen and the Brothers hurried trying to them.

The truck turns speeding off as a hunter grunted. "Let's get out of here!"

Owen, Chris and Martin got to the clearing as the lead poacher staring at them as the 2 Zachbots followed. And then the hunter fires a shotgun at them as the trio quickly ducked hitting the ground.

The hunter fires again as the juvenile shrieks helplessly.

At the bottom of the ravine, Blue soon recovered and shakes off the pain from the electric shocks and then cries out a distress call as it rings out through the forest.

Nearby, Amber was stalking a deer when she heard the gunshots earlier and realized something was wrong. She begins to head back to see what has happened when she heard Blue's distress call, taking the fastest way, she then froze hearing a revving engine.

Amber then looked back seeing the speeding Ford F-Series driving up, but then her worse fears were realized as she sharp vision spotted a hunter holding a bag down as a familiar shrieking was heard.

Amber then desperately chased after them and screeched.

The Ford F-Series speeds along the trail as Amber quickly caught up running alongside them and then leaps into the air but missed the truck. Amber lands on the ground and chased after the truck and roared.

The Ford F-Series banks a sharp right turn as Amber skids to a momentarily halt and continues pursuing after them. The truck speeds away as the hunter holding the bad down fires at her as bullets struck the ground near her as the dirt flying from one bullet striking the ground hits her eye. Amber screeches as it momentarily slowed her down.

But she's not going to give up so easily.

Shaking off the mud, Amber then roared sheer determination and banks right into the trees to a higher ridge and caught to the truck. Once close enough, she then leaps out into the air as the hunter saw her too late as he tries to take aim, and Amber lands on him and mauls him. Amber quickly snapped the hunter's neck the lead poacher leans out seeing her on side mirror.

Amber looks around and then heard the juvenile screeching, Amber growled to her reassure her. And then rips the bag open with her hand claws, but then the sound of a cocking gun stops her as she froze and saw the poacher with his shotgun aiming straight at her.

In her net, the young Raptor cringed after a gunshot was sounded, and she looked ahead and cries out seeing Amber with her head thrown back where she was struck as she fell and hits the ground hard and tumbles across the ground.

The juvenile whimpered helplessly in her net.

The Ford F-Series drove off.

Amber lied motionless where she landed, but then she suddenly stirs as she rights herself up and turns as she was nearly struck in her left eye as a graze wound freshly bleeds out. Amber shook her head trying to recover the initial pain, and her through blurred vision saw the truck driving off.

Amber saw this and tries to get up, but as soon as she took as step she suddenly screeches in pain and drops to the ground. Amber growled as she looked back and saw that she had broken something in her left leg. She soon manages to get up and then howling a screeching roar and limps off, and bad news for her condition.

With a broken leg, she can no longer hunt. And she can no longer feed herself or her yet-to-be-born offspring.

Meanwhile, Maisie reaches the old bridge completely unaware of what had happened. But then she saw a woman standing near the other end of the bridge.

Maisie slowed to a stop a man stepped out from the car blocking the other end.

"Who are you?" Maisie asked immediately surprised.

The woman didn't say anything, and then a vehicle was heard approaching as she looked back and saw the Ford F-Series blocking the other way as the young Raptor chittered, and the 2 Zachbots begin to approach her as Maisie turns back to the woman suddenly taking back the thought of being found.

Nearby, Owen, Chris and Martin rushed out from the trees on a hill hoping to cut them off. But then saw horrifying something, as on the bridge the lead poacher grunts tossing Maisie's bike over the side and into the river below and heads back to the truck.

"Oh, no!" Chris cried realizing what happened.

Then the trio rushed back the way they came.

Back at the cabin, Claire was busy skulking corncobs as Aviva, Koki and Jimmy were in as well.

"Claire!" Owen's voice yelled.

They turned to the doorway as Chris and Martin suddenly rushed in.

"Maisie... hunters..." The Brothers said in unison out of breath.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down!" Aviva said. "What happened out there?"

Owen then hurries in.

"They found her." Owen said hurrying through the cabin.

"What?" Claire said shocked. "Who are they?"

"Poachers." Owen said looking through the shelf. "I've seen 'em around." He got to his gun safe. "Leader's a real shit-heel. He must have recognized me, followed me here." He brought his lever action rifle.

"Where is she?" Claire asked fearfully.

"Go get the truck." Owen said.

"We'll get the Tortuga and try to get eyes on them." Koki said.

"Oh, my God." Claire said quickly heading off wishing she stopped Maisie.

Claire and the Wild Kratts quickly headed outside as Claire grabbed a jacket.

"Oh, God." She softly said.

They head outside but then suddenly stopped dead in their tracks as a snarling roar had Claire gasped. As they saw Blue all furious of what has happened to her family pack as she lets out a screeching roar at them.

"Blue!" Aviva exclaimed.

"Owen!" Claire cried as Owen came out.

"Hey. No." Owen said holding his left hand out.

Blue viciously snarled as Owen approached her, and Blue screeches out furiously.

"What's her problem?" Jimmy fearfully asked hiding behind Koki.

"They took her kid, too." Owen said.

"I'm sorry, did you just say Blue has a kid?!" Aviva said bewildered.

"Blue's a mom?!" Koki dumbfounded.

Claire too shocked of the news turns to him, and Blue shrieks and snarls at them.

"I am gonna get her back." Owen looked Blue in the eye as she growled. "I promise you that."

Blue snared and hissed, and then with a lightning-fast strike she let out a snarling hiss shrieking as she suddenly swung her right hand as a claw slashed Owen's palm.

Claire gasped and jumped from that as Owen held his right hand out, and Blue snarled looking like she was about to strike.

"Blue, Blue!" Chris said. "I promise if you kill us all now, I can guarantee you that you'll never see your daughter again."

Blue growled as she looked just seconds from lunging, but she then backs away and then runs off shrieking into the forest.

Everyone soon recovered from the fearful experience as then the Tortuga's engines were heard.

"Guess Jimmy got the Tortuga running." Koki said.

"Uh... I'm right here." Jimmy said peaking out of the cabin doorway.

"Wait." Aviva frowned. "If you're here, then who's..."

They turn to each other and then quickly rushed off and pass by the cabin and saw the Tortuga suddenly taking off.

And the flew by them as then saw Zach's Spy-Bots in the cockpit hijacking the Tortuga.

"Zach!" Aviva glared.

"He's got the Tortuga!" Jimmy cried.

"All my inventions and our gear are in there!" Aviva cried in a panic tone.

"Come on." Claire said rushing off. "I know who to call."

Moments later, the Station Wagoneer and Wild Kratts' Gladiator hurried down the road.

So, the 2 DreamWorks reference I mentioned, One from Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron and the other from Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa.

Soon, we'll be seeing what the Villains have been getting at recently.

Especially Zach.
