The Secret Life of Troy

Chapter Seven: Mom Attack!

              Standing right in front of Saturn was a big wolf. She had alot of muscles in her hind legs. She had grey, white and brown fur on her face. Then she had grey, black, and white fur on her body. She looked really angry and Saturn seemed to know why. He looked down at the ground. He was ashamed for a reason that I dont know. "Saturn!" she yelled. "Why did you run away from home without telling me?" "I'm sorry mom" Saturn whispered. Oh, thats Saturn's mom. Saturn looks nothing like her. Probably he looks like his dad. Saturn's mom nipped his nose. Saturn yelped. "Ow!" That must hurt! Then she told us to come with her. We followed. I was scared of her.

             She took us through the forest and it was a long trip. First we went through a long place which had a bunch of vines. The vines were slippery and green. When you poke them with your nails, green liquid spews out. There were a lot of bugs on the vines so when Saturn did that (I can't because I have no front legs and it's hard to do it with your hind legs) a bunch of insects would crawl quickly to the hole and drink the liquid. I tried it and it tastes horrible; like rotten socks (I've tried).

         Then we passed a big lot of monkeys. They screeched and howled at us. Then Saturn's mom growled at them. They immediately stopped. They were definetly scared. The baby monkeys hid. When Saturn's mom growls, she bares her teeth. I dont blame them for being scared. Then the bigger monkeys came out. Big gorillas surrounded us. They smelt like bannanas and mud. The gorillas were creepy. They snarled at us and kept stepping closer and closer to us. Saturns mom attacked. She defeated the gorillas one by one until she defeated them all. They all were down covered in mud. The other monkeys scrambled away. 

              Finally we reached a cave which was full of wolves. They all snarled at me. Then they ran to greet Saturn. "Saturn where were you!" screamed a wolf. "We've been looking all over for you." They all gathered up and started talking. I was just sitting there minding my own buisness when they stopped talking and attacked me; with words. Who is he? What is he doing here? What happened to his front legs? Is he our food? I got intensely scared and walked backwards. Why would they eat a dog? Aren't I one of their kind? Then Saturn said "This is my friend, Troy." "He got attacked by an alligator and survived but only with his hind legs." Then suddenly they all sat down. "Tell us your story." "How did you survive?" I answered their questions and told them my story. After an hour or two, Saturn came to talk to me in private. "I still want to continue our journey" he said. "Let's escape."
