He hadn't seen Millie since this fiasco had started and Seb hoped that the little wombat was in a good hiding place.
And just as he was about issue some orders, the toad made its way onto the kids head followed closely by the dog. "PEPPER!! For the love of Merlin." Seb said with a sound of exasperation in his voice. He was not making a very good impression in front of the lad. He placed a hand on the boy's shoulder to steady him. "You okay?"
Apparently so, going by the look on his face. "He went that way." Towards the fire place. Oh this was not going to end well. "Quick. You come in from the right and I'll take the left and corner it."
"I-I'm fine." Oakey stated eyes focused on the Toad as it settled itself by the fireplace. He brushed the Groundskeeper's hand from his shoulder, but turned and listened to his instructions to come around from the right.
"What about ummm, Pepper?" That was his dogs name, yeah? The Black dog was just as determined to capture as they were, but the dog wasn't going to listen to the instructions as easily as Oakey did.
Doing as the Groundskeeper said Oakey moved over to the right of the fire place as slowly as possible carefully stepping over a few fallen objects and the splatter of paint on the floor. He eyed back to the older man. He was ready and in position now he needed to do his part.
Where did Pepper go?
