He returned to the road just as Doc and Karen arrived followed immediately by Sheriff McCoy, “There’s no sign of life, Doc and the cabin’s too hot to get close enough to see if anyone was inside. Sheriff McCoy, there are cars out back, one of them belongs to Shadbush.”

Well, m’dear,” Doc’s face was ashen as he contemplated what they would find in the rubble, “We are about to begin our first forensics investigation.”

We’ll need the Adventure Bus,” She arfed, and sure enough, the bus began to come ever closer. The friends soon found themselves back in the relative security of the bus.

Now what?” her tail wagging slowly, Daisy was still not sure how they’d find their people-dogs, but she had faith in her small friend.

The bus began to move in a circle and when Buttons was satisfied where the people-dogs were, the bus began to move in that direction.

It wasn’t long before Chris felt something pulling at the corner of her consciousness, nothing she could really narrow down; at least not right away. That something slowly began to become clear and looking over her shoulder, “Buttons! Buttons is coming!”
