Alfredo presented a warm and welcoming smile as if he saw his family. Petting Franklin, he stared at Lachlan's family, sizing them up.

”So, what else do you want?” Alfredo asked in a calm manner.

”We would like to ask where you're going, and if you can bring us,” Chloe said.

Alfredo frowned, ”I was going to drive to Victor Harbour, my family lives there, called them last night, they said they're fine and want me to come home. Was going to drive back to Alice Springs and take a plane,” Alfredo explained.

”I wouldn't do that if I were you, all animals have evolved one way or another and birds certainly weren't excluded. Most likely situation is that the massive bird we saw at Alice Springs has made it its new home,” Chloe explained.

”Well, I'll be damned, suppose I could try driving, after all, I got my trusted friend to cover my back,” Alfredo explained.

”Where are you needing to go?” He asked.

”Going to Mount Barker, my Husband is currently there,” Chloe said.

”Well, I suppose I can help ya out, just on one condition,” Alfredo said before pointing to Jack, ”I'll need him to help fight against beasts”.

”Okay, I'll do it,” Jack stated.

”Hahaha, good, chuck all the food in the back, get in and get comfortable,” Alfredo enthusiastically said before de-summoning Franklin and opening the car door. However, before he could sit down the sound of dozens of footsteps seemed to get closer and closer.

Before the rest of the family could really determine what's going on, Alfredo had already summoned Franklin back out and got into a fighting stance facing the direction of the footsteps

What crawled out of the shrubbery was a scorpion, it looked small, that was until it extended its legs and seemed to grow another metre of height, its body was 2 metres long. It was mostly brown with a black outline of its shell, and its tail was 4 – 5 metres long, it was also mostly brown until the last metre where it was completely green.

Alfredo and Franklin seemed ready to fight the scorpion, Jack was paying complete attention to the fight and whether he should help, from Alfredo's expression it seemed he didn't need any help with this fight.

Lachlan had already analysed the scorpion and was assured that Alfredo and Franklin will be fine.
