Four hours have passed, Zoot has hidden the van up the road where the truck that will be getting Teeth will come through to head to. They have picked up Lips and Floyd. The two had changed their clothes and were now waiting for the truck. It wasn’t long until the truck came. The truck looked like it came out of the military. It was all black white , a huge end that the cage would be placed in. Hidden away from the outside. The truck stopped and two people hopped out of it. Tooth and Lops. Tooth walked up to skekRey and gave him a hand shake. “I do have to say, nice job” said Tooth with a smirk growing on his face. “Why thank you,” replied skekRey. “You two! Help him load the catch up into the truck!” said the albino skeksis as he pointed to skekWaj and skekSz. The two skeksis helped Lops load the cage into the truck. Teeth just layed on the cage’s floor, tapping his fingers. Trying to think of him playing his keyboard to keep his hope up of being back to those days. He let out a sigh as the door of the truck shut. The inside was dark with little light coming in. It wasn’t a problem for the doc since he can see really well in the dark due to him being a feline. “We better get heading off now, the frog wants us to get him on that boat before dark.” said Tooth before he hopped into the driver side of the truck. “Alright, good doing business with you!” said the white feather skeksis as he was counting the money that they were giving. The truck took off, it went up to the road where the van was parked under the tree lines. It passed the van and kept on going up the path. Zoot quickly pulled the van onto the path and followed them. The truck was going over some rocky areas which would be trouble to the van but they will get through it. During the trip, the band was just worried about Teeth. Meanwhile inside of the truck, Teeth was laying on the floor of the cage. He kept his eyes closed and was letting out light breaths. The doc didn’t feel well due to eating raw meat. His stomach felt like there was a storm going on the inside of his body. The large male kept seeing a skull like being. The skull had blood dripping off of its skeleton. The skeleton was that of a Cheshire cat. “Why feel sick of blood?” it hissed as it circled around Teeth in a creepy way. It was like that the doc was its prey. “It hurt my body” the large male replied with a pant as he felt his vomit coming up to his throat. “That is no excuse” replied the skull as it looked into Teeth’s eyes. “It is an excuse! If it makes him sick!” replied a light female voice. It was Athena again but in her normal form. She was wearing an old dress that looked like something a queen would wear. Her hair was in a bun. It made her mint and purple hair look like candy. The tall female had her eyes covered by her hair like Teeth’s mother. “That just means he is weak” replied the skeleton as it hissed down at the doc. “No! He isn’t weak!” replied Athena with a growl coming out of her throat. “He will be killed like you,” replied the feline skull. “No! He won’t be killed! He is strong!” snapped the tall female. Teeth blinked his eyes again and the two ghost beings were gone. “What the hell was that?” the doc said as he sat up and placed his back against the back of the cage. His breathing was slow and felt like forever for him getting his air into the lung. He fears the trip on the sea. Teeth had been on the sea before for the Muppets Treasure Island movie with his cousin, Mad Monty. He remembered how he would stop vomiting for a hot minute and Monty was just holding his hair up to keep it from going into his face. The large male can’t understand why his cousin likes the sea but that's just him. Teeth looked up at the ceiling and let out a whine. His foot that was in the bear trap was still hurting him. At least it wasn’t as bad as before. He hopes that his friends will save him before the trip. He doesn't want to be somewhere where he can’t be near his friends.
