" This dogfood IS pretty good. "
"WHAT?"
"Here. Try it. Lock forced me to try with his telepathic abilities and now I like it."
Belle held out the can of dog food and a fork for Bow, who was staring at Belle incredilously.
"But you're the fussiest person I've ever known! I couldn't even get you to eat broccoli in the sixth grade! And this GUY-who you've known for only a TENTH as long as me-has gotten you to eat DOG FOOD!"
"You're spazzing again."
"But I-"
"-just try it." She held it up to Bow's face, looking at her curiously. "Come on. If I can eat it, so can you."
Bow glared aat Belle, then, snatching the fork, tasted it. "It...it tastes just like turkey. Turkey and gravy."
"Yes I know now GO GET YOUR OWN."
They had been at "sea" for three days.
Lock walked by and shoved his hand in the open can of dog food, trying to grab a peice.
"Hey! That's gross, at least use a FORK to steal my food." Said Belle, pulling away the can.
Lock's hand sliced across the open edge of the can, and instantly began to bleed. Thankfully, not in the food. "OW!" He yelped, pulling his hand away and glaring at it.
"Oh, crap. See, look what you did." Replied Belle, grabbing his arm and examining the cut. She began to dab at it with a napkin from the table. Lock flinched, but Belle yanked hard on his arm. "Keep still!" She was cleaning the wound when the both paused. A very awkward silence occurred. She looked at him, and he turned red, and she turned red. She looked down, and he looked sideways. Pushing his arm back at him, she said, "Here. Clean it with the napkin then put a band-aid on it."
He grabbed the napkin and turned back towards the kitchen. Just then, they arrived in the Hinter Lands.
"BELLE! Oh, Belle, you're back!!" Belle was sudddenly enveloped in an enourmous hug, from her father, her older brother, her little sister, and her mother.
"Yes, I know I'm back. You don't have to tell me." She replied, as her mother said, "And you haven't changed either."
Belle stared in horror at what was once her house, completely devistated. All of the windows were broken and the front door was caved in. Everything, the trees, the flowerbeds, the bushes, were drowned. There were even PEOPLE lying around, injured, sick, and dead. She covered her mouth with her hands and gasped. Staggering slightly, she uttered a small scream and almost fainted. Lock, who had just come up behind her, was the person she turned around and leaned on. He stood there looking very surprised at her as she started to cry.
He cleared his throat, standing there looking very embarrassed as Belle leaned her head on his shoulder and cried. "Ummm....Belle?" he mumbled, his face getting red again as more and more people started to look at him. "BELLE!" He muttered through clenched teeth, nudging her with his shoulder.
Belle sniffed and blinked, wiping her eyes. Then, eyes wide and face red, she turned around and looked at Bow, Shock, and Barrel, all staring at her. "...uuhhh....LOCK! How could you pretend to be Bow like that? I thought you were her!" She slapped him, and suffled away.
