Amy searched frantically searched the tree's in the surrounding area, but had no luck. Tears formed in her eyes and she began hyperventilate. Isac grabbed her good shoulder and attempted to pull her back to the rest of the group. "Amy, I'm sure he is okay and just few away, he'll be fine in the wild.'

Amy spun around worry plastered to her face, "No! He can't survive in the wild. My...My dad gave me Lewis for my birthday after we moved to New York... I've had him since he was only two weeks. He's never been left alone for more than six hours."

Amy began to cry, "Lewis!" she yelled. A yelp came from the group. Amy and Isac both spun around and saw And rolling around on the ground screaming with a green bird attacking him.

"Amy! We found Lewis!" Benjamin yelled. Amy ran towards the group, and save Andy from Lewis's wrath.

"Lewis...Lewis stop!" Amy yelled, but nothing happened. Amy slapped her leg and yelled "Up." the bird stopped his attack and glided up tho Amy. The bird nuzzled up against her neck.

"Oh, thank god your okay...Lewis don't ever do that again!" Amy scolded and Lewis dropped his head. Benjamin cleared his throat.

"Okay well come on everyone we need to get moving, We have a long walk ahead of us." Everyone in the group nodded.

                                                                               ~~~~~

The band of friends walked for an hour, before finally reaching Edinburgh. Kelly stopped and pointed at a 'breakfast and bed' building, with her heels in hand. 

"Look guy's it's a breakfast in bed! We can stay there for the rest of the night." Isac spun around with a glare.

"Kelly you bloody twit!" he hissed at his sister. "Do you want to get us caught by The DGC, who would hand us straight over to Scotland Yard."

"DGC?" Andy wondered aloud, Amy patted his shoulder, where Lewis sat, and gave him a grim smirk.

"Dumfries and Galloway Constabulary. The police of Central Scotland." she explained, before walking over to Benjamin.

"But I thought Scotland Yard was the police here, in SCOTLAND... 'Scotland' is literally in the title! It would only be the sensible thing to call it, don't you think so?" Andy muttered turning to the bird, he was clearly confused.

Benjamin rolled his eyes and turned to Amy, "We have to get moving before someone sees us or worse, we get caught."

Amy nodded in agreement and turned to Isac and Kelly, who were in the middle of insulting each others IQ.

"Yes, but I'm still the smarter one!" Isac shouted.

Kelly clenched her fists, "Shut up!" 

"Or what? You'll pin me to the ground and call me names, just like when we were kids? Well then here's a bit of a news flash for you, because obviously you haven't noticed, You can cuss and call me names all you want, but I'm physically bigger and stronger than you are so good luck with getting me to the ground." Isac folded his arms and glared at Kelly.

Part of Amy wanted to see if Kelly could actually take Isac down, but they didn't have time for that, they had to get moving. As Kelly clenched her fists tighter, Amy decided to intervene. "Come on guys, knock it off. We have to get moving, we only have a few miles left...then you can rip out each others throats," Amy explained, before walking over to Andy, who was still talking to himself.
