A Royal Quest: A wolf's Way Home Book 2

Chapter 10: unmarked Territories

Kate, Bucky, Merith and Skyler looked beyond the hill trying to find a place to start walking there was nothing more than grass and plants The lands were deserted all the animals seemed to be not in eyes view which is unusual for these this kind of circle of life Kate bucky said I remember when we met for Second time and i helped stop the moons control over you but ever since my little home was destroyed all my medicines and potion cured were destroyed half the stuff I have back at the castle are not half as good as what I had then my parents have gave me all those things so I could survive but now that I am royal I guess I have everything and I apologize that I couldn't have fixed your weakness before this journey and now I just hope we can find something that can help put this new threat behind us Kate smiled look over there she had found A trail of footprints that's got to be animal foot prints the friends started heading in the trail trying to get a lead on direction and the trail stopped the footprints had led them to a sand like area with small little caves and shack homes this must be where all of them are hiding out but why? Bucky knocked on one of the shack houses and the door creaked open hello he said Bucky heard some racket on the other side of the wall and a small shadow reveals itself well hello friend my name is Pierre I'm a peacock and you must be a rabbit we haven't got a rabbit in these parts before so you've come in hiding Bucky looked confused what are we hiding from exactly Pierre looked around nervously hey did you bring guests or did you come alone Bucky swallowed the lump in his throat alone? Why did he ask that could this peacock Pierre be on the dark side he replied with honesty yes I did I have three other friends here with me is that ok Pierre created a half smirk half smile ratio to try to stay calm I will have to tell you that I'm not fond of more than one guest your friends must leave Bucky didn't like that but Pierre I don't understand why not why hide out here in this deserted place with no plants or water or food peirre was suspicious I'm sorry my hare like friend but your friends must leave well peirre I'm sorry but I don't want to stay I just came to ask a question I'm terribly sorry but I must leave peirre was sure that Bucky was king and he knew he couldn't let him leave no im sorry fur ball but you ain't going nowhere guards seize him two gorilla guards Took Bucky and placed him inside a small like cage our boss needs you as bait do not move Bucky spit his glass icicles at them and the gorillas only laughed the glass icicles melted into their skin and no cuts anywhere he really was trapped and he hoped his friends would save him. Merith Kate said I'm getting worried about him and I believe you can search for him skyler nodded agreeing with Kate and Merith went off in search of their bunny friend there were two shacks one looked slightly different from the other so she opened the second door to the opened door and peeked inside her flashlight lightened the small animal sized shack and an animal shadow appeared and it was a fox Merith picked the fox up and put it in her arms the fox snarled and bit her causing the fox to jump out of her grasp and landed back on the dune like sand she took her animal communicater app out on her phone and asked what his name was the fox smiled and replied sorry about biting you earlier I don't really like humans but I might make an exception for you my name is fonder and I'm not supposed to tell you but I don't make friends often so we aren't hiding we are forced to stay by our leader peirre a peacook Merith didn't like that who else lives here fonder? Merith asked the fox replied there are two giraffes, a monkey, and two deers I'm the only one who isn't fully under peirre's control Merith decided to ask what she needed where Bucky was and fonder froze listen human my name is Merith ok then Merith I don't know where your friend is but if I'd take a guess he's in the cage of uncontrollable animals ones who don't respect his commands your friend should be the illusion wall that you here rackets and things Merith thanked him and headed to the shack next door the door was open and the wall that fonder spoke of was correct so she poked a twig into it and it started to tear apart and there Bucky was found the cage surrounded him and a lock was on it which had a key to open it with but where was the key a peacook like shadow formed behind her and the phone communicater spoke so are you this bunnys owner little girl Merith smirked yes and I'm taking him home well you'll need a key don't you Pierre held the key up Merith tried to get it but it was no use Merith took Bucky and ran up to where Kate and skyler were and the peacook wasn't far behind listen young girl you've crossed the line of unmarked territories and you must obey me I will take that bunny and give him the punishment he deserves Kate decided to shoot a orb at the peacook to stop him from gaining up and Merith made it to the top of the hill Kate took the twig from Merith and broke the lock letting Bucky roam free Kate hugged Bucky and Bucky kissed Kate on the cheek the peacook walked back in defeat and the friends head off on their next journey wherever that may take them
