Chapter 12; Lost And Found
3rd POV
K-unit had just finished on the shooting range and were on their way back to the cabin when they heard someone…laughing? Considering the fact that they were in the SAS training camp, laughter was not something you heard every day.
They all looked at each other and then at the door in front of them. Wolf was the first to enter, the rest following right behind.
The four stared in silence at the two kids who were both holding their stomaches while laughing. If it had been any other unit, they would have been chocked, but K-Unit just smiled and Eagle even joined the two in laughing.
After a few minutes, Cub and Kitten finally stopped laughing. They looked at each other and came to a silent agreement; they would not tell K-Unit about being cousins until later.
"So," Snake started, "care to tell us what's so funny?"
Kitten just looked at him and started giggling again. Cub let out a short chuckle and answered.
"Potatoes," he said, looking very serious.
"And puppies!" Kitten, who had stopped laughing, added.
"Do we even want to know?" Fox asked, looking defeated.
"No," Kitten and Cub answered at the same time.
Before anyone could ad something, there was a knock on the door. Eagle went to open it, only to find Fish, one of the newer soldiers, standing there.
"Sergeant wants to see you in his office, ALL of you," Fish said before turning around and leaving.

Cub's POV
We all walked out of the cabin and started making our way to Sergeants office/hut. Wolf walked in front, Snake right behind him. Eagle and Fox walked in the middle, Kitten and I right behind them. She was holding my hand again, but just like last time, I didn't mind.
As we were walking, I started to think about this whole situation.
What's going to happen to Kitten?
Surely she can't stay here all her life, right?
She's just a little kid, she needs school, she needs to be around other kids her age, and she needs parents. As much as it hurts to say, I can't take care of her. Sure, K-Unit would bee there too, but as a kid, you need more than what four soldiers and a teenager can give.
But still, she's the only family I have, and I'm the only family she has.
I was thinking so hard that I didn't notice Kitten letting go of my hand…
3rd POV
Cub looked around, swearing loudly as he didn't see Kitten anywhere.
"Kitten? KITTEN!" He yelled, drawing K-Units attention immediately.
They all looked alarmed, as they couldn't see the little brunette either.
"What happened?" Asked Fox, trying to stay calm.
"I don't know," answered Cub, still looking around, "We were walking, and then she was just gone."
"Cub and Fox, you two go look in the forest, Eagle and I will go back to the cabin and look for her and Snake, you go tell the Sergeant that we'll be a bit late," Wolf commanded.
Snake continued towards Sergeants office, Eagle and Wolf headed back the same way they came from, and Cub and Fox started walking into the forest.
"Kitten?" yelled Fox, "Kitten?"
Cub walked right behind him, also yelling out for the girl.
When they had been looking for 15 minutes and still hadn't heard anything, Cub changed strategy.
"Sophia?" he called, "Where are you? Sophia?"
"Maybe we should split up?" Fox suggested.
"One of us will just end up lost, I think we should stay together," Cub said as he continued calling out for Sophia.
Another 15 minutes had passed when they finally heard something.
"Alex?" called a little voice.
"Sophia!" yelled Cub, turning around and starting to walk in the opposite direction, following her voice as she yelled his name.
…
"Sophia…" whispered Cub as he finally saw her. She was sitting on the ground, holding her onto her ankle.
Cub ran over and kneeled at her side, Fox following two seconds later.
"Are you all right?" Asked Fox, trying to look at her foot.
"Yes…" she sniffed, "But my ankle hurts."
"What happened?" Asked Cub, concern showing in his eyes.
"I fell…" she whimpered.
"Lets get back to the others, then Snake can look at your foot, okay?" Fox said.
She nodded, and held her arms out to her cousin. Cub smiled and slid one arm under her knees and the other behind her back as he lifted her gently. She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her head in his chest. Cub soon heard her breathing evening out ad she fell asleep.
…
As the three got back to the cabin, everyone else was already there.
"Oh thank God, you found her," Eagle exclaimed as he saw the trio walked in.
"Shh" Fox shushed, "she's sleeping."
Meanwhile, Cub had laid Kitten on his own bunk where he started to inspect her ankle.
"Snake?" he said, drawing their attention, "Could you look at her foot, it looks broken."
Snake wordlessly walked over and kneeled down next to the bunk, examining the little foot. He then proceeded to lift it, making Kitten grimace in her sleep.
Snake laid her foot back on the bunk and looked at the others.
"Its just a small sprain, she'll be fine," he said, "But can one of you get the first aid kit, I'd like to wrap it up to be on the safe side."
Wolf walked into the bathroom and emerged two seconds later, holding the kit in his hand.
Snake took the box and started to wrap Kittens foot with the white band. She started to stir as he did this, so Cub took her hand and started stroking her hair. She immediately calmed down and Snake finished wrapping her foot.
"What did Sergeant say?" Fox asked as Snake put the kit away.
"First he said that N-Unit brought in two men earlier, they were found in the forest a mile from here. The two are being accused of almost killing Cub with the tobacco a few days back." He said, looking at said boy.
The three other adults looked at each other, and then at Cub who was staring at Snake in chock.
"Did he say anything else?" Cub asked in a small voice.
"He said that you had something to tell us," Snake answered, "Something about you and Kitten."
