A Pup gone Missing

 Author's Note: Another Mighty pup thing. It's not filled with cute little things though.

 --------------------------------------------

 Ren's POV:

 The air was thicker than fog in the meeting room of Woltria's castle. It was located in the deepest part of the island, so deep that I could actually look down into the clouds that blocked the unknown world below from view. 

 I tapped my black nail against the wooden table that I was sat at. I looked down the table. S, Q, and some people that I never seen before were on the other side. The eldest man, maybe around TFC's age, was staring at me; his wolf ears were twitching angrily as he quickly turned to his people at his side of the table. 

 My tail twitched anxiously as I continued to tap my nail against the wood.

 Tap. 

 Tap. 

 Tap. 

 Tap. 

 " Rendog?"

 I jolted as Iskall put his hand on my arm. My ears perked up as I looked over at him. Iskall gave me a concerned look as I sighed. The Swede looked at me, " What's wrong dude? The meeting is about to start." he whispered.

 " I'm fine, Iskall... It's just that that wolf hybrid keeps staring at me." I mumbled as I crossed my arms over my chest. Iskall briefly glanced over at the other people at the table; he scanned the people with his eye before looking back at me. 

 " They're all stressed out.... That old wolf dude... He's smelled your canine-ness, and he's slightly threatened... The tall wolf next to him is his son." Iskall explained as he whispered into my ear. I nodded at him as S stood up. The penguin hybrid nodded to the elder wolf that simply narrowed his eyes as he nodded.

 S fixed his glasses as he motioned towards Xisuma, who was stationed at the head of the table on our end. X nodded his head as he took his helmet off, " Have you had any luck on your end, Xisuma?" S questioned with a hopeful look. 

 X's whole body lowered, " Sorry mate, but we haven't... We've searched high and low. " he sighed causing S to lower his head. The elder wolf stood up and picked his cane up, " Alright, since the people who lost Mighty in the first place haven't seen 'er; I say we search the forbidden zone." 

 This caused unrest from Woltria's group. A small, seal hybrid stood up, " Lieutenant Ghost, are you seriously considering we go to that zone?" he questioned as his tail thrashed. The wolf hybrid growled at the shorter man, " Of course I am Barney." he snarled causing the seal to sit down. 

 " Father, don't be so... so mean towards Barney." The younger wolf hybrid sighed. The elder wolf let out another growl, " This kid has to learn, Charles." he huffed as he looked away. Charles stood up as his tail twitched, " It's a good idea to check there..." he looked towards the rest of us, " Who should go with us is the question...." his tail shook.

 The group of hybrids looked up at S. The penguin hybrid's tail twitched, " Well, Xisuma. I suppose that you can decide who you want to send." he shrugged as he took a step back from the table. Q turned around and put his arm around S; the axolotl didn't say a word to any of us. 

 X stood up and cleared his throat, " Well, I would say that who I have right here is good."  he shrugged his shoulders as he looked between Doc, Iskall, and I. S nodded his head, " Sounds good. Charlie will lead you guys down into.... that area..." he waved his hand. The deer hybrid stood up, " I should go too." he narrowed his eyes causing the others to shake this head. 

 " Ryan, you got your antler cut off, and your leg get infected by those guys out there... I'm not letting you get hurt." Charles spoke as his tail shook. The deer, Ryan, let out a sigh before sitting back down, " Fine... That's a good point." 

 Charles looked at us as he ran his hand through his dyed hair; his tail twitched as he nodded. It was decided between X and Charles that Doc and I could be going. Iskall and X would stay back in case something bad were to happen. This was apparently a mission of stealth, after all. 

 We traveled down into the lower area, but Charles had to blindfold us in order to make sure we didn't see the way down. I questioned why we didn't just use elytras, and the arctic wolf explained how the fog has a magical energy that could shoot any gliding or flying object down in an instant. 

 My tail twitched as anxiously as Charles took my blindfold off. I looked over at Doc as he looked around and crossed his arms. Doc's eye glowed through the deep forests as he scanned around, " I'm getting humanoid life signs out this way."  he pointed into the thicket of trees and bushes. Doc's tail twitched as he frowned, " ....and there's a something.... small on the front. It's heat levels are both off the charts and.... not?" he leaned forward slightly with a frown. 

 I tilted my head, " What do you mean?" I questioned as Doc shrugged, " I wish I knew man. " he sighed as his tail lowered. Charles moved to the front of the group. We walked for a few miles on all fours. 

 We were taken to a large cave and up onto the top of it. I looked above the trees and looked at a black spire that went through the trees and towered above this lower plane. Charles took my attention quickly away from it though as he smacked me with his tail. 

 In the cave, a bird hybrid, a canine-like hybrid, and a fox hybrid were all standing around. Charles let out a snort, " That's Vincent, Brutus, and Eddie...." he narrowed his eyes. The wolf looked at Doc and I, " You two grab Mighty, I'll distract 'em." he explained his plan. Before Doc and I could protest, Charlie leapt down into the cave and punched Eddie in the face. 

 " You damn wolf! Get 'em Brutus!" Vincent shouted causing the three to chase after Charles; the hybrid quickly shifted into his animal form before fleeing. Doc and I dropped into the cave, and I looked down towards a tiny, metallic cage. 

 The cage had wires and tubes that dug into the small, matted furred wolftiger. Doc narrowed his eye as he kneeled down and lasered the cage open. The noise caused Mighty's ears to raise, and the hybrid groggily woke up. 

 Mighty let out a weak whine as she tried to lift her head. Doc quickly, and carefully, detached the tubes and wires from Mighty before fishing the hybrid out of the cage. The hybrid briefly whined and shivered before moving closer to Doc's robotic arm as the red spots glowed gently. 

 The three of us quickly left the cave and deep into the woods. Charles eventually found us again, " I lost them at the cliffside. Vincent may be a bird, but he wouldn't jump after things." he smirked causing my ears to lower.

 I was going to comment on what Charles did before Doc stopped me. The creeper-cyborg simply shook his head before we were blindfolded again while being taken back up to Woltria's island. When we got our blindfolds taken off, S quickly met up with our little group. S carefully took Mighty with a nervous look; he thanked us for helping to rescue Mighty before quickly leaving. 

 This left Doc, myself, Iskall, and X to go back to Hermitcraft. According to X, once Mighty was actually bandaged up and medicated, people could be able to visit her. I sighed as my tail twitched. What could characters that Mighty made want with her?
