Chapter 5: Missing
When Slaga's parents woke up and looked in Slaga's room, they knew at first glance that he was gone. "Oh no!" Exclaimed Grily. She fainted and fell hard on the floor. A tear came down Lou's red eye. He got a water sprayer and sprayed some water on Grily's face. She got up, screamed, and slapped Lou on the face.
They went down to a nearby police station. They ran to the warden. "What can I do ya for?" Asked the warden in a western accent. "Our son is missing. Here's a picture." Said Grily as she handed a picture of Slaga to the warden. "I'll send out our best search team." Replied the warden. So the search party was sent out. They first looked in all of the villages in the slig forest, and then they look in other parts of the forest. It took 3 years to look for Slaga, but they didn't find a trace of him.
Lou and Grily were now crying in their hut. "We were horrible parents!" Exclaimed Grily. "Why couldn't we just let her live his own life?" Asked Lou. They kept on crying and wheeping.
Back where Slaga is:
He was finally living in mother nature, and so far, he was liking it. He drank from a nearby stream when she was thirsty. He learned to eat slurgs when he was hungry. He made fire, shelter, and custom made silverware. He was actually happy that he was away from his nature-killing parents.
