Dixie and Mukua wolfed on the fried Chicken dumplings, which were extremely tasty, and had had their bones removed. ' dixie burped slightly as she pushed her plate in. ' Misi those are delicious! I must have your recipe! dixie smiled " Misi smiled " well, its always nice to get good feedback on my cooking! ' Sacco grinned " i didn't get this belly from sedentary lifestyles , my dear.' He said to Dixie ' but from her cooking. and my boys will be like their father in due time. But not my girl Mukua " sacco said " So , Dixie, if you don't mind me asking, how did you come to our little kingdom?" well, I'm part of the laffalympics, the traveling games competition that is currently in India My friend kitty and I were, for lack of a better word, taken prisoner by a huge owl, the duke of oils, who serves as security for the games. that lasted for several weeks until he was forced to free us" So stuck in an owl belly?' miss said " not the best place to be. could be worse, you could be inside a snake, or a tiger." ' Well, ending up inside some creature was not how I wanted things to go." dixie said. the games pay very well, and missing events mean I don't make any money. i've lost a lot of money, probably millions, from being unable to compete." Millions?' Sacco said " Yes." Dixie nodded " she's loaded Dad. Took me on a shopping spree easier " Mukua said showing her pendants and jewelry' Spent 110, 423 dollars in all" Both Nacco and Misi gaped at the amount spent, and the jewelry. ' Is there any chance that she'll be willing to help us with some home repairs?' Misi said, chuckling " I have been meaning to re-do the kitchen." mom! don't take advantage of Dixie like that!" mukua protested. ' honey, if she can afford to drop so much money on earrings and jewelry for you, then she can afford to spend money on more practical things."Mom1 She's not going to be here for very long! a couple days tops!" Those games of hers are coming here" Misi said " so she'll be here for a bit.' " well, i'll be glad to help you folks out. i mean mukuas been a great friend and has shown me and Kitty around, so its only fitting I help you out." Dixie said." anyway, to finish my story, the Duke left me and kitty in the jungle and we wandered around until we found the nearest town, which happened to be this one." So where is Kitty? Sacco said " Well, we haven't seen her since this morning. She went out to get some more food at breakfast and we haven't seen her since" Dixie said."The jungle is a dangerous place to be wandering about.' Nacho said firmly. " theres all sorts of predators around who would gladly lure in unsuspecting prey and eat them. i hope of course that your friend has not become victim to something like that." Well Dixie and I will be going out to find her once we finish eating." mukua said.'Hopefully we'll find her soon. We also have a spot reserved to meet the prince, which is currently.. um. 4300 spots away for me." usually dear you don't bother with those things " sacco said ' so why try this time? is Dixie here that special to you?' He said." Well, dad, i guess you could say that Funny how just a couple days can change your life in terms of making friends" mukua said." " Thank you Mukua " dixie said patting Mukus head." Thank you for dinner Sacco and Misi>
' Won't you stay for dessert? Misi said ' Its peach cobbler.' Just.. set some aside for the three of us" dixie said. " very well ' Misi said . i'll put some slices aside>' she said Dixie got up slowly from her seat, and as she did, an image of Stripetail appeared " ah, boss> Glad you are checking in" dixie said " Hello Dixie> We are en route to your location. We should be there some time tomorrow, late, judging from the busses speed." Good, Good " dixie said. " I'm just having dinner with Mukua and her family. this is her father Sacco and her mom Misi. This is Lord stripe tail, he's a wizard" A wizard? Sacco said " pleasure to meet both of you" stripe tail said ' Anything you need dixie?' Well, Kitty's gone missing"Dixie said and Stripetail's face narrowed." Dixie, for the love of the ancients! What am I going to do with you?" Stripetail said clearly displeased. "We need to find her. and um.. have some way to contact her, and be able to connect with her." dixie said. stripe tail ran his claw down his face, and gave Dixie a very cold look. 'you and I are going to have a VERY long talk once we get in. about responsibility and making sure you don't let your friends wander off. " He sighed then turned to Mukua" come forward' he motioned, then noticing the ring Mukua wore on her paw.
" that will work. Dixie press your ring to hers. " its not going to make me kiss her, is it?" dixie said. MUkua shot her a look then smirked.'a kiss wouldn't be the worst thing, mister Stripetail. tuning into a dancing monkey, or a venomous snake would be worse, far worse.' No it wont make you girls kiss' stripetail said" it will transfer magic into your ring Mukua, so that you can find Kitty, and protect you from trouble." we'll kiss later' Mukua said to Dixie.' but for now, magic me' She pressed the emerald against dixies ring ' traforus' Stripetail commanded, and dixies ring, glowed a white light filled the emerald so that it was hard foe mukua to look at it. Dixie pulled her ring away and a blue light floated from mukuas ring and hovered in the air. 'find Kitty" stripetail intoned, and the the orb began floating away and out of the door. "Get going. you'd better find her before I get to Panthera Dixie' stripetail said " just add it to the list of things you'll yell at me for. its like 5 things right now Dixie said " Armor Up. and watch your tone Dixie Doo." dixies armor activated and MUkuas parents gaped. 'amazing Nacco said. "we'll be back soon dad" mukua said as she headed for the door."stay safe, you girls Misi said . Come on Mukua Dixie said and the pair ran out of the door. Stripetail looked sat Nacco and Misi " good evening to both of you" " wait, mister Stripetail, could you perhaps perform a bit of magic for us?" Misi said. Stripetail noticed the large peace cobbler, and featured, the cobbler grew in size until it covered nearly the whole table. ' there you go" He said to the stunned panthers" Good evening" The image vanished.
