A/N: Based on an RP with thunder pony, we only own our OC's, read & review!
It started on a stormy night and where a little cave boy was running and then his as two men were looking for him. The boy ran as fast as he could, he was nearly stumbling into the town of Bedrock.
"I can't believe you let that brat get away!" The first cave man said to the other caveman out of frustration.
"Don't worry, we'll find 'em, he can't hide forever." the other man chuckled darkly.
"If we lose him the boss will have our heads." The first caveman said.
"He's only a kid, he couldn't had gotten too far..." the other scoffed.
"Says the one who got his butt kicked by a kid." The caveman said.
The other man shoved him. "Aw, shuddap."
"Anyways let's just find that brat before he gets too far away." The caveman said.
"Come on, then." the other one said as they continued to track down the child they were after.
Bedrock's residents were asleep and unaware of what had been happening.
However, there came a woman with platinum blonde hair in a high ponytail and wearing a tiger skin dress came out of her house to bring in milk bottles and petted the sabor-tooth tiger who was out in the yard and went back inside. The young cave boy had to think of a way to get as far away from the two cave men as possible.
The woman was on her way inside her home, then she saw something from the corner of her eye. "Is someone there?"
The shadowy figure just hid.
The woman looked around and went inside briefly, then came back out, looking to the tiger. "This isn't for you now, no eating it..."
The tiger nodded, then went back to sleep as it was late.
The woman then went against the bushes where the figure hid and went back inside. "It took my mother two hours to make that, and I don't want to hear any fussing. Good night, kind stranger." she shut the door and locked it, going back to bed.
"I-I didn't know." A voice said. It sounded like a child's voice.
The woman heard that and came back out, going to the bushes. "Sweetie, are you alright?" She could tell this was a child.
"I-I'm trying to hide from two mean men and try to find a family, you know one with a mother and a father and a brother and a sister?" The little cave boy said.
"Rubbles or Flintstones?" the woman asked.
"I'll either one." The little cave boy said.
"Well, it just so happens that Barney and Betty Rubble are my adoptive parents," the woman replied. "Why, just think seven years ago as of tomorrow it'll be when my niece and nephew I never thought I'd meet would be born and now to have their seventh birthday. Why don't I take you inside and get you settled? You can be my guest to their birthday when Mom, Dad, Fred, Wilma, Stony, and I go see them."
"Thank you, ma'am." The little cave boy said. When he came out from the shadows he had peach skin dark brown hair light blue eyes and he was wearing tiger-skin clothes.
"Come on, let's get you in before you freeze..." the woman settled him as she let him into her home. "What's your name, kiddo?"
"My name is Scott." The cave boy said.
"Hello, Scott, my name is Amanda Rubble."
"Nice to meet you, Amanda." Scott said.
"You look a little beat up, honey..." Amanda crouched down a little with a washcloth and started to wash Scott's face. "Don't your Mom and Dad take care of you properly?"
The word mom and dad made Scott look down, very sad. "They're gone." Scott said out of sadness.
"Gone?" Amanda sounded touched. "Oh, sweetie, I'm so sorry... Believe it or not, I know just how you feel."
"Really?" Scott asked.
"Yes," Amanda said softly. "When I was younger, my parents were killed out of jealousy because we were aristocrats. I felt like I had no other choice, but to take myself and my baby brother out of our home, we had no other living relatives... I decided to put myself to work despite being a minor, and all I could do was put my baby brother into a foster family and I'd go off to find a way to support myself, though about six years later, I unknowingly met my little brother's adoptive parents and then my brother had come home from school and Barney and Betty adopted me since they adopted my brother."
"Cool." Scott said.
Amanda finished washing Scott's face, then went to take him into her bedroom. "Here, you can sleep in my bed, I'll sleep on the couch. You look like you haven't gotten much sleep."
"I haven't gotten any sleep." Scott said.
"Well you'll probably sleep a lot better now." Amanda smiled as she allowed him to climb into her bed.
"Good night." Scott said.
"Good night." Amanda let the light out, then decided to bunk on the couch.
Scott fell asleep instantly. Amanda smiled, then sat on the couch, kicking her feet up, wrapping herself up in the warm and fluffy blanket and lying her head on the pillow, returning to sleep herself.
