The Search for Voyd

Chapter 27

The sun shined. Voyd and the animals woke up. Avia went next to the super and greeted, "Good morning, Voyd. I see that the sun had caught your attention." The cat nudged on Voyd, who started giggling a little bit. "Good morning, my little mentor and my favorite super student." Diesel said. "Are you ready to start a new day of preparation?" "That sounds nice." Avia said. Donatello, Kathleen, Chuck, Harrion, Carlos, Claudio, Orina, and Tasmo woke up and went to the others. "Well look who's up to live another day." Donatello said. "Hey guys," Avia said. "Umm, before we start our day," Voyd began. "Do you happen to have anything for breakfast? I'm starving." "Well, since I'm a tiger, the only thing I got is raw meat." Diesel said. "But you're welcome to try it." "Why not? I could use something myself." Avia said. "Very well." Diesel said. "Orina, would you take our guests to their dine in?" "Follow me." Orina said. The animals followed the oryx and tiger. Avia helped Voyd get up with her crutches. The super almost tripped while walking, but Avia watched her. The animals and Voyd go inside a cave and see meat laying on the ground. "This is where I keep my meal." Diesel said. "All of this was originally mine, but eating one big pile of meat can really fill you up." "Especially for birds if you use worms instead of meat." Kathleen said. Avia went up to the meat and sniffed it. "Smells good to me." "Well, feel free to dig in." Diesel said. "Plenty for everyone." And so, Avia started to eat on the meat pile. The other animals except for Chuck and Orina join in. They seemed to enjoy the meat despite it being raw. "Oh wow." Avia said. "This is awesome. You must be a lucky tiger to have this type of stuff." "Um, excuse me." Chuck said. "But do you guys happen to have any nuts around here? Because sugar gliders kinda have a different taste you know?" "We might actually have an oak tree not too far away." Diesel said. "Orina, could you take the flying squirrel to the oak tree?" "Sure." Orina replied. "Come, flying squirrel." "That's Chuck the great to you!" Chuck corrected. "Just follow me." Orina said with a little impatience in her voice. Chuck followed where the oryx was going. While eating, Avia looked at Voyd and said, "Come on, Voyd. Have some. It'll help you have a bit more energy." "I...I think I'll pass..." Voyd said. However, despite her reply, Voyd did actually feel hungry. As she looked at the meat, her eyes widened as she licked her lips. Despite it being raw meat, she was actually craving for it. She heard and felt her stomach growl. Voyd blushed in embarrassment. "Come on, Voyd. Just try it." Avia said. Voyd felt a bit hesitant, but she was starving for sure. So she went to the meat and started to eat a pile. "Oh my gosh!" Voyd exclaimed. "This is actually really good!" And so, Voyd continued eating some of the meat. "What kind of meat is this?" Voyd asked. "Gazelle meat." Diesel answered. Voyd and the rest of the animals paused for a moment, but continued eating like it was normal. "So, Diesel. What's the plan?" Avia asked. "What do you mean?" Diesel asked. "Last night, you said something about getting information on Elastigirl from the National Supers Agency, right?" Avia said. "Oh yes." Diesel said, remembering the conversation last night. "Well, while you're here with Voyd and us, your friends are gonna go to Metroville City and find the building of the agency. The city is not too far away from here. I can show you where the direction is." After Voyd was done eating her meat, she looked at the tiger, feeling worried. "I know where it is." Donatello said. "I've been traveling around this city before, ever since I was a tiny pup." "Okay, well, it shouldn't be hard for you then." Diesel said. "I'm also gonna go." Kathleen said. "Because I wanna be brave and not coward out on anything anymore." "Really Kathleen?" Avia asked. "Yes. Because you helped me realize that I can be brave without worrying." Kathleen said. "That's all that matters." "You're right, Kathleen." Avia said. "And if anyone can conquer anything, it's definitely you and Voyd." "Speaking of that, let me show you something." Diesel said. Avia followed the tiger inside a tunnel. It was dark, but due to their incredible night vision, it was always possible to know where they're going. "I want you to take a look at this scratch writing I did for remembrance." Diesel said. Avia looked at the wall Diesel was pointing at. On it was a message. It read,
