Authors Note: A promise is a promise! Here's a tad more! Enjoy and comment please!
About fifteen minutes later Floyd, Zoot and Janice walked outside, only to find the most shocking scene meet their eyes. “What the f-”
“Fragle Rock!”
“Oh rully!!?”
Dr. Teeth stood there as calm as ever, leaning up against a dark blue, shiny Dodge Caliber, Reading a large map. Looking up he smiled “Oh, hey guys and gal! Come on, it ain’t growing any younger.” Jaw dropped and completely awe struck the four of them climbed into the car, Dr. Teeth in the driver’s seat.
This was awkward, Dr. Teeth turned the motor over and slowly pulled away from the curb. “Ok, now I think I know where we have to go. And I put some water bottles and an assortment of refreshments in the back incase-” But Floyd, who was in the passenger’s seat, cut him off
“Ok hold it! Where did you get this car? You can’t even drive man, your fourteen!! Did you steal it?!” Dr. Teeth smiled “It ain’t stealing if I bring it back.” The looks on his friend’s faces were priceless, and Teeth couldn’t help but laugh “I’m joking! I’m joking! It’s my Mamma’s; she’s out of town in a meeting conference. Won’t even notice.”
Floyd sighed leaning back in his seat “Oh god! You just gave me heat failure.” Zoot leaned over “But, you can’t drive! You don’t even have a license!” adjusting his rearview mirror Dr. Teeth changed lanes and continued up a ramp onto the high way
“Of course I can drive! Just...not exactly legally, but, I’ve been driving for years, my uncle starting bringing me out to his farm when I was ten so I could practice, but lately even more so since I’m going for my permit soon.” Floyd threw his arms up “But, this is illegal man!!” groaning Dr. Teeth continued “Do you want to get animal back or not?”
Floyd nodded “Well yeah,” Dr. Teeth glanced at him “Then don’t worry.” Opening the map Floyd nodded “I guess, so how long will it take to get there?” speeding it up a little Dr. Teeth answered “A few hours,” Zoot leaned back in his seat placing his hat over his eyes “Well then we better get comfortable.”
He currently pulled at Floyds arm and nudged him vigorously with his head and groaning “Man, your just full of energy today aren’t you?” Floyd asked with a laugh as his head was nudged, Gonzo watched with interest before he said “What do you do about it?”
Floyd turned to him and laughed “I usually just play a game with him, keep walking you know just try to wear him out.” Dr. Teeth nodded and put in “Yeah and usually banging around on his drum set helps quite to a large extent.”
Animal groaned and screamed “DRUM! DRUM! DRUM!” Floyd gasped in understanding his hand on animals head “Oh! I see what you want!” laughing Floyd turned to Kermit “I should head back, let animal release himself on the drums for a while. Think you guys can manage without me?” Everyone nodded and Kermit said “Of course, you run ahead, we’ll be home shortly.”
Floyd nodded “Alright, come on buddy. Drum time!!” animal, who had his chain in his mouth, dropped it as his eyes went wide “DRUMS!!! DRUMS!!!” and proceeded to pull Floyd down the street with him. Floyd could be heard shouting for him to stop as he had to run, to keep up with him.
Zoot laughed along with his friends “We might as well head on back.” Since everyone didn’t feel like keeping Floyd out of the story they all decided to head back.

About an hour later, the Electric Mayhem, Kermit, and Gonzo made it to the park. Floyd tried to tire him out, but it was no use, animal just had way too much energy today. And it was starting to show, the group had stopped at a park bench but animal was still showing clear signs of being very restless. He currently pulled at Floyds arm and nudged him vigorously with his head and groaning “Man, your just full of energy today aren’t you?” Floyd asked with a laugh as his head was nudged, Gonzo watched with interest before he said “What do you do about it?”

WARNING: SERIOUS THEME UP AHEAD! VERY SAD! PROCEED WTH CAUTION!
Animal couldn’t believe everything that had happened to him, after the incident on the truck James dragged him through a large deserted fair ground, and into a large open red stripped tent.
It held rows and rows of large metal cages meant for wild animals, most of them were filled with every type of animal you could think of, monkeys, gorillas, cheetahs, lions, hyenas, wolves and more. But James brought him to an even larger cage it had to be six feet high, and six feet wide, was covered with a thick blue curtain so nobody could see into it.
But James had the back of it open and the curtain drawn, there was a layer of golden straw in the bottom of it and a round food dish latched in the counter. Animal didn’t even try to get away, he just walked into the cage and allowed James to latch chains onto his wrists, feet and neck and latch them onto the bars of his new cage.
Animal kicked the straw gently with his feet, he just didn’t care this was too much and what was the point? James rubbed the top of Animals head with the back of his hand “Oh, come now, where’s the fight?” Animal just whimpered and pulled away, laughing in clear success James slammed the door the cage shut and locked it “I though so.”
Drawing the curtain shut he spoke “The first showing is eight o’clock tonight, but I’ll be back soon so we can…train.” And with that animal was left alone. He pulled lightly at his chains; they hurt a lot and were way too tight, Floyd may have kept him on a chain, but it was comfortable and not too tight.
Looking around the dark cage animal noticed a food bowl and a water dish sitting next to each other in the corner. Getting on his knees he slowly crawled over to them only to find them empty. With a frown animal curled up in another corner, of course James wouldn’t feed him; he would want animal wild and hungry. Well, if that’s what he wants, then that is what he’ll get. He may not have Floyd, but there still is a reason to fight…freedom.
Animal couldn’t remember going to sleep, but when he awoke he was lying face down in a dark place. Groaning he sat up and realized he was in the middle of a closed off tent, he didn’t understand. How did he get here? The tent was empty with the exception of a large hook that hung down from the rafter.
Animal looked around, confused but then he heard a voice erupt from out of seemingly nowhere “Well, well, well, look who’s awake.” Animal spun around on his heals to face James, struggling in confusion when he realized that his arms where tied together in what felt like thick metal cuffs, attached by a short chain. Inching away from him animal growled lightly.
James chuckled, he was standing in front of something but animal could not see what it was, “Oh come now animal. I’m just going teach you a little lesson. So why don’t you be a good animal and just submit. Don’t make this harder than necessary.”
Animal didn’t understand what he just said, but he wasn’t going to let himself be pushed around anymore so instead he growled and got to his feet. James smiled and sneered “Oooh look who’s feeling though.” Animal tried to jump him but he realized he couldn’t move and just fell forward with a loud grunt.
James took his opportunity to rush forward and grab animal’s wrists, forcing him to his feet. He then latched his chain onto the hook so that animal was stuck just hanging there. Animal tried to pull away but his feet didn’t touch the floor, James pulled on a pair of thick gloves “there, isn’t that better?” turning around animal could now see what he was doing.
James was hovering over a dinner cart on wheels that held a metal box, layers of coals where burning inside of it, James was holding a long metal rod inside of the flames and a weird funnel type thingy that blew air on the coals, animal cocked his head to the side confused. He watched for a few moments as the rod turned red hot, just then James spoke
“This is a cattle prod, but don’t worry this will only hurt for a few months.” Turning back toward animal he grinned, the prod would leave a swirl design where ever James decided to put it. James circled around animal, who tried to keep an eye on him, but eventually could no longer see him, and he didn’t like that at all.
“Now, where was I?” James muttered into animal’s ear before he swiftly and deliberately pressed the cattle prod into animal’s lower back.

I wasn't going to say anything, but I am currently working on a sequal/prequal to my current on going story 'Maybe Less of a Mystery'. It does revolve a lot around Zoot and Dr. Teeth. Animal doesn't play as big of a role, but I still had so many idea's so I thought I would let them out! I hope who ever wishes to take a look at it when I post it later on after the first story that you'll enjoy it! It will be titled 'Dr. Teeth and the Time Before the Mayhem' Thank you all for liking my story so far! You are my inspiration!
