Seravi[thinking]: ....... Seravi: "Oh no!" Page 111 [Seravi runs towards the cottage.] Seravi: "Don't tell me he saw that!"

Cha Cha: "...when they're just a couple of puppets." Seravi: "I gave them a wash because I found them dirty, and I forgot to keep them." Dorothy: "Forget it! Let's just tell him the truth." Seravi: "That's correct, we shouldn't keep him in the dark forever..." Cha Cha: "Riya, calm down!" Riya: "No, No this is not good! How did my parents become like that?" Seravi: "Calm down Riya, I have something important to tell you." Riya [still concerned about his parents]: "Quickly take them down!" Page 113 //guri// [Seravi makes Riya face the puppets.] Seravi: "It doesn't matter. Look carfully Riya!" Riya: "...? Ah! Father and Mother have cotton coming out of their tummies! That means... don't tell me... MY TUMMY HAS COTTON TOO!" Cha Cha, Shiine and Dorothy: "WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!" Seravi [sweatdropping]: "I lied to you when I said that they were your parents. Actually they are only puppets." Riya: "WHAT?!" Page 114 Riya: "Then where are my real parents?" Seravi: "They're..." [Seravi hesitates...] Seravi: "......" Cha Cha: "Teacher Seravi..." Dorothy: "No matter how hard it is, you'll have to say it." [Suddenly, Seravi fishes out two more puppets(human).] Seravi: "These are then your real parents!"

Dorothy [grabbing Seravi]: "Never believe anything this fella says!" Seravi [sweatdropping]: "Actually, they passed away when you were just a baby." Riya: "..............you're lying!" Page 118 Shiine: "No." Cha Cha: "This time it's real..." Riya: "Didn't you guys just tell me not believe what Seravi says?" [Riya starts to cry...] Riya: "You were all lying to me...I... I...

Riya: "I'm going on a journey." //zun zun zun// [Riya begins to leave.] Riya: "I'm going to search for my parents!" Cha Cha and Shiine: "Huh?" Page 120 Shiine [holding Riya back]: "Wait a minute! Where are you going to search? You can't possibly find dead people!" Riya: "THEY ARE NOT DEAD!" //kya// [Riya gets very agitated.] Riya: "THEY ARE STILL ALIVE!" Shiine: "Ok, fine, relax!" Cha Cha: "Careful or you'll nose bleed again." //fu fu// [Riya calms down somewhat.] Cha Cha: "Riya, easy, easy!" Shiine: "Looks like we'll have to go with him and prove it!" [The trio leave.] Riya: "I want to ask Grandpa and my brothers about what really happened." [Riya is on Shiine's broom, Cha Cha is on her own broom. They were heading towards Mt. Mochi-mochi.] Shiine: "Did you intend to run to Mt. Mochi-mochi?" Cha Cha: "Even if we're on our brooms, we have to fly for a long time." Page 121 [Riya's residence at Mt. Mochi-mochi.] Grandpa [not flinching at all]: "Your papa and mama? Didn't they die when they fell down that gorge." //piki// [Riya's worst fears are confirmed! He is very shocked.] Sanae (Riya's brother): "You mean this fool still doesn't know it? Don't we bring you to pay your respects every year? Riya: "I thought An-shen {chinese name, I dunno the Japanese name} and Gang-ya {chinese name, I dunno the Japanese name} were just people we knew..." Shiine: The average person would have known by now. Page 122 Sanae [looking into Riya's bag]: "What is this? Is it a local product?" Dakano(another brother): "It's some biscuits and a storybook!" Riya: "No! Those are for Papa and Mama!" //ugya// [Riya grasp the book, titled "The adventures of the little rabbit".] Riya: "The biscuits are for Papa and Mama to eat. And I wanted Mama to read this book to me!" //uaaaa// [Riya crys.] Riya: "But now I am an orphaned wolf...." [Seravi and Dorothy appeared.] Seravi: "Is he feeling better?" Dorothy: "Why don't you pay your respects before going home?" Shiine: "Ah, Teacher, you're here to fetch us home?" //hyooooooo// [A large assembly of wolf-people and magicians gather in front of the graves.] Page 123 Wolf-person 1: "They fell in by accident when they were out hunting one day." Wolf-person 2: "This is a endless gorge, those who fell in have never returned alive." [Riya pours the biscuits down the gorge.] Riya: "All the biscuits are for Papa and Mama." //aooo// [Riya howls.] Riya: "Papa! Mama!" Page 124 //SURO// [Suddenly voices boom out of the gorge!] Voice 1: "YO!!" Voice 2: "WHO CALLED ME?" [The group of people stare down the gorge.] Seravi: "What...what was that?" Riya: "There are people climbing out of the gorge!" [Two wolf people emerge from the gorge.] Riya's father: "Wife! I see it! We've finally made it!" Riya's mother: "Husband! We undauntedly climbed for several years, finally we've made it!" Page 125 [The wolf-people are excited and surprise when they recognise the two climbers.] Grandpa: "AH! SON! DAUGHTER-IN-LAW! YOU'RE STILL ALIVE?" Riya's brothers: "PAPA! MAMA!!" //wahahahaha// [Riya's father laughs.] Riya's father: "For a strong wolf-man like me, I can't die from simply falling down an endless gorge!" Riya's mother: "I'm his wife, I couldn't possibly die either!" Riya [twinkled eye with happiness]: "Papa, Mama, I knew you were still alive!" [Riya's mother stoops down and carries Riya.] Riya's mother: "Is this little wolf, who gave us the biscuits, Sanae?" Riya's father: "You muddle-head! You can't even tell apart your own children!" Page 126 [Riya's mother picks him up and hugs him.] Riya's mother: "You must be Riya, you just a baby then." Riya: "Yes, yes!" Riya's father [looking at his sons, they're taller than him]: "Wow! You guys are all so tall now! You're almost as tall as Grandpa!" Sanae: "Mother, I want a hug too! Me too!" Seravi: "They really are a strong couple." Dorothy: "Who knows how long have they been climbing." [Seravi sees Cha Cha's sad face.] Cha Cha: "Riya is not going to return to the cat house, right? Since he's so happy here." [Seravi leads Cha Cha away.] Seravi: "There's nothing we can do about it, Riya can still come over to play." Shiine: Goodbye, you dumb dog! Have a happy life with your family! Page 127 [One day...] Riya: "I'M HOME!" //dota dota dota// [Riya comes running into the cat house.] Riya: "I ran all the way! Man, am I thirsty! Seravi, I want to drink some milk!" [The gang is very surprise to see him. Cha Cha is very, very happy!] Seravi: "Huh? I thought you were living with your parents?" Riya: "Huh? Why? That's not my home. They're coming for parents-teacher meeting." Cha Cha: "Right! Right! This is our home!' Narrator: "Riya chose his foster home and not his family." Shiine: I thought I could finally have Cha Cha all to myself.
