pup's mouth. "Oh." She smiled.

     Jaysha walked back over to the other's. "Oh, there you are, who were you talking to?" Songa asked. "Ohh, uuhh, nobody momma." Jaysha lied. "Don't lie hon, who were yu talking to?" Songa camanded. She didn't want to give Nakita away, so she lied again: "One of you buddy's.". "Oh, Angel and Zasha?" Songa asked. "Uhh, no." Jaysha whined.

     "Oh, I know who... Nakita!" Songa growled. But Nakita's name was almost in a whisper. Then Zorro, Angel and Zasha came out of some bushes. "Daddy!" The pups barked, running to play with thier father. "Look who I brought with me." Zorro smiled. The pups looked and saw the two other's and ran to them. "Hi aunt Angel, hi aunt Zasha!" They cheered. "Hey, you three stat with the kids, I'll be back." Songa called.

     Zasha looked down to see little dagger pouncing on her foot. They started playing around. Songa ran to the other side of the road,then she looked everywhere,and finally found her close by. "Nikita....."Songa growled. She turned around. "Oh hello Songa,How are you? I diddn't know you were allowed outside." She smiled. "Oh shut up! I KNOW you talked to my dauther and now she thinks it's okay to lie!" Songa growled.

     "Well you diddn't think the pups would always obey you did you?" Nikita laughed. She started walking up the steps to her house when Songa grabbed her tail and thew her to the ground. Nikita quickly got up,but Songa followed her. She dove into the dog door of her house and lied inside. She knew Songa wouldn't follow her inthere.Songa trotted back home.

     She found her way home and soon heard her puppies screaming. "Momma!" They barked. She smiled at her puppies, they jumped on her, and she lied down to let them jump on her. "It's geting late. Kids, go inside and see grandma,and she'll tuke-you-in." Songa said softly. The pups yawned and walked inside. "Zorro, we need to talk." Songa began.

     "Nikita talked to Jaysha,and now she thinks it's okay to lie,But it's not her fault.Nikita is a danger to our family."Songa siad,slightly growling."what should we do?"Zorro asked."I dunno...I sleep on it."She said.

     "Lets go in." Zorro said, after hearing somthing in the bushes. They walked in, and then Nakita walked out of the bushes. "Great, now he know's, if only I could... get one of the pups.. in danger... I got it!" She said to herself. She ran home, and walked in the doggie-door.

     "Hey girl!" Nakita's owner said, who was Rosie's friend, wich is how Nakita and Songa became friends. Altho she didn't want to see her, she let her owner pet her, and then walked into her room. The next day, Nakita was up at sunrise. She walked right to where Songa was living, and waited.

     Once the puppies and Songa were outside, Nakita made her move. When Songa was playing with Apollo, she called Jaysha over. "Jaysha, wanna come play~?" Nakita asked. Jaysha ran over and jumped on her. "Yes Na-"

     "Ssshh, don't let you momma hear us, or else we can't play." Nakita lied. Nakita picked the puppy up in her mouth and troted away. Once they were very far, she droped Jaysha. "Whats ya wanna play?" Jaysha asked. "Come, lets go swimming!" Nakita said. "Whats that?" Jaysha asked playfully. "I'll show you.." Nakita said. She jumped into the near by pond, Jaysha did her best to follow.

      Once they were at thr deepest point, Jaysha was having alot of truble swimming. "Nakita... I.. Can't... Help!!" Jaysha cried. "Nows my chance... Oh, don't worry, I'll be right back!" Nakita yelled, swimming to shore.

     "SONGA ZORRO!" Nikita said. She came skidding around the corner. "GET OUTA HERE!"Songa growled. "NO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND,JAYSHA'S IN TROUBLE!!!" Nikita screamed. They ran to the pond. Songa was about to jump in,when Nakita lunged to Jaysha. Songa fell back. Nikita drug a drenched Jaysha to shore. Songa went right into action to help Jaysha. "Dear me!"Nikita said. "Oh I hope She'll me okay!" Nikita lied.She realy diddn't give a crap.

     Songa new that it was Nakita's fault, because if Jaysha realy did get stuck in the pond, then Nakita wouldn't just run and get her parents, she would save her. "Nakita! Im not stupid! I know this is your fault and I don't want to hear Oh, I hope she'll be okay because thats a lie! You don't care! You want-" She was cut of by a ssomone else.

     "You want us to think you saved her and I will dump my mate, and go with you. But thats not going to happen, and because you nearly killed my daughter, I don't want to see or hear you bein near my pups, my mate, and anyone else in my family!" Zorro coldly spat. Nakita stood there, it took some time for it to sink in. "Did you get the message?.... Just get out of here!" Songa souted. Nakita ran-off.

     "Somthhing realy does need to be done with her."Songa growled."M-mommy?"Jaysha asked."What?"She asked her."Is Nikita bad?"Jaysha asked.Songa looked at Zorro then back at her daughter."Hon.....Nikita is very mean to mommy and daddy.......she wants daddy to be with her and not me."Songa replied."But she is your friend!"Jaysha said."No Jaysha.....Nikita dosn't want daddy to be your daddy."Songa tried to explain.

     "But she was going swimming with me,and then she saved me."Jaysha replied."no.....she was.....goinng to.....hurt you."Songa said."She just saved you so daddy would like her,but It diddn't work."She said.Jaysha looked at her funny."But Nikita said she was my friend."Jaysha said."I know it's complacated....but you'll see someday..."Songa smiled.

     A few days later the pups where playing with Angel and Zasha.Songa and Zorro where talking."It's been days since....you know.....what happend."Songa said."I havn't seen a clue of Nikita.....Zorro....I'm worried.....what is she's watching for a good time to strike?"Songa said."I dunno.....she seemed pretty upset when we told her off.....mabey she relized what she did was wrong...."Zorro smiled."No.....I know Nikita....."Songa grumbled.

     Zorro looked at his feet. "Mabey, but from now on someone always, must be the children." He sighed. Meanwhile, Nakita pased back and forth. What do I do now... the 'drawning' plan didn't work.. what now? Nakita asked her self, she couldn't think of a better plan to get Zorro to love her. Her owner went up to her and wanted to pet her, she let her for a minute, the snaped at her.

     "Bad girl!" Her owner shouted and slaped her in the face. Nakita whimperd then ran to her doggie-bed. She lied there, crying and trying to think of what to do next. Then the idea came to her. "I'v got it!" She said and jumped out of her bed.

     Nikita ran out into the yard then relized that it was to soon to strike."Crap...She's probably exepecting somthing....Hmmm....I'll lay low for a while....then I'll strike.....when nobody's ready for it..."She mummbeld to herself."Hmmm In about a month....Thats when I'll strike."She laughed.Songa lunged around a corner."I heard everything!"She growled.

     "Wha-NO NO NO NO NO YOU DON'T----I'M NOT GUNNA-----NOOOOOO!"She cried.Songa lunged,but Nikita once again doged into the door."I'll get her next time.....And She'll rergret....everything." Songa growled. "YOU HEAR ME? NIKITA IF I EVERY SEE YOU AGAIN I'LL RIP YOUR THROUGHT OUT!" She Snarled and ran back to Zorro.

     A tear ran down her red furry cheeck.She colapsed in the floor of Rosie's house. Zorro walked up to her. "A-are you okay?"He asked."No....Zorro I'm scared....Nikita's plotting somthing.....and....We used to be such good friends....I thought she'd turned into a monster.....But I think I'm becoming the same....."She cried."No.....You are doing the right thing by keeping OUR pups safe.OUR pups,she has nothing to do with them!"Zorro said.

     "No....There is somthing more to it......But I don't Know what...."Songa cried."Songa,you have done nothing wrong....Jelosey got the better of her...."Zorro said while nuzzling her."You don't understand.....She is Jelous.....but not of oue pups.....Mabey not even you....I mean off course she is Jelous of you and them....but.....I think thiers something else....Zorro.....It's too confusing."She started."There's somthing there....I just now it...."
