Chapter 11

Derek waited until the yard was quiet before going outside.Without any extra senses,he hoped he could still find Kit and Cal somehow.

He peered everywhere from the airing holes in the foundation of the house to the nooks and crannies of the outbuilding.

Finally,he gave up.“Kit,can you show me where you are?”he called out.

A moment later,he heard a rustling,then a tiny sand-colored head with massive ears peeked out from inside a…currant bush?Kit chattered at him in fox speak,which he didn’t understand at all.

“Is he okay?”Derek asked as he slowly approached the bushes on the edge of the yard.He’d noticed them,of course,but hadn’t really paid attention to them because they didn’t look like they’d produce any berries anymore.

Kit nodded.

“Okay.He must be hungry.”

Kit nodded again.

“I’ll cut up some meat that’s in the fridge.I’ll leave it in a bowl in the kitchen.Try to get him inside.”He looked up.“Seems like it’s going to rain soon.”
