Adventure Time
With Alix the Kitsune
Episode 1 ~ Trouble Maker
I opened my eyes, they were still blurry from fatigue, I put my pale-ish hand infront of my eyes, shielding them from the sun, I then yawned Ugh, still so tired, can't I sleep in just for today? I decided to shut my eyes again, until I heard chirping, my sensitive fox ears couldn't block out that noise, I groaned and sat up, I looked at the thick branch I was lay on, I must have been so tired that I didn't realise where I fell asleep Hm, well, atleast it was high up, rather than in a log or bush I looked around and saw my leather quiver and wooden bow hung on a branch above me, I grinned while my long fox tail lashed, I kneeled onto the branch and grabbed the quiver around my body until it was placed on my back, I then grabbed the bow and caught it in a 'hook' on the form of my quiver between my back and the leather, it was stable and stayed where I had put it, I then grabbed the branch I was on and swung down, I let go at an angle to give myself an extra boost, my trainers left a light dent in the ground, I lifted my bent knees and looked around Hm, nothing that way... maybe that way? I looked at a wood, not that far away either , it wasn't much of a wood but it was enough to hid either, monsters, prey or treasure, I grinned at the three thoughts, I ran straight for it, hoping to find something fun, I grabbed my box in my left hand and grabbed an arrow in the right, it hadn't even been a minute when I reached a tree, I stopped and panted heavily, I quickly realised there could be monsters or creatures around and quieted my breathing, I then bent over slightly, my ears pricked to hear the slightest sound, I walked slowly and quietly into the woods I hope there's something to eat, I'm starving! My left ear had picked up a tiny sound, I looked and saw a duck, looking around, I dropped low and lifted my bow, I pulled the arrow in line with the duck's head So sorry, but a girl's gotta eat I let go of the arrow and immediately I shut my eyes, I heard a loud 'quack' and then it fell silent, I opened my eyes and saw the duck on the ground, dead, I felt my tail wave with excitement Sorry... I shut my eyes for a second in a moment of silence for the duck, I then got up and collected my prize, I inspected the duck as I picked it up by its neck, it was a female, I pulled the arrow from the duck's head, it was stained with blood but I put it back in the quiver I'll clean it later... I put the duck in my quiver too, my quiver is mainly my bag, since I only have four arrows, I then looked around I'll cook it later, for now... tomorrow's dinner, or today's reward I grinned, I then ventured into the woods further, I looked around and saw a nest of birds in a tree, I saw two chicks and three eggs, I smiled as I climbed onto the tree branch silently and looked into the nest, the chicks were asleep, and the eggs not hatched, I grinned as I turned my hands into paws and lifted my paws slowly above both of the birds heads, I then swatted them, knocking them out, I swiftly changed my paws back into hands and then grabbed the eggs and put them in my quiver, at the bottom where they wouldn't break, I looked at the birds Ni-night I leapt down and clung to my bow tightly, I grabbed another arrow in case of a monster, I wandered further and ducked slightly under a broken branch, I then saw a deer, eating grass Hm...Nah I don't really like deer, but I could ask it a question I put my arrow away and put my bow back behind my back
"Hi there!" I called to the deer, it shot its head up
"What is it?" the deer was a male, a buck
"Got any monster problems? Anything worth killing for some gold?" I asked, the buck shook its head
"No, and I don't think you should hang around here-" it cut itself off, I saw him take a deep breath, I flinched as I knew he was smelling the duck and the bird eggs Opps... he started shouting "Murder! Murder!" he carried on shouting as he raced off into the darkness, I stood there, waiting for an attack, I grabbed my bow and arrow
"Murderer!" I heard a voice behind me, I turned and saw a man that looked like a wizard that had appeared
"It's not called murder!" I replied in the exact level of volume used by the wizard, I quickly shot an arrow above the wizard and shot the large, broken branch, it fell and landed on his head, I took the chance and leaped over the wizard and started running, I called back to the Wizard "It's called Poaching!" I smiled as I exited the forest, in the distance I heard the faint sound of crying, chirping and quacking, I put down my ears in sadness for a moment but carried on running, I kept an eye out for a place to hide, I saw a cave just to my right, I swerved and dived into it, I landed with a thud but I shrugged it off, I crouched down and peeped over the edge of the cave, I heard the sound of feet approaching C'mon Alix quick! Think think THINK! I remembered the backup plan and quickly grabbed my quiver I put my hand down to the bottom and grabbed a small mirror, I pulled it out and grabbed the quiver and bow, throwing it to the back of the cave, I looked into the mirror and saw my fox relection, bright orange with blue eyes, with thin pupils like cats, I grinned and my reflection copied, I placed it on the ground and jumped into it, I came back out but landed on four paws, I quickly lay on the mirror and curled into a ball and pretended to be asleep, I heard something outside of the cave, I lifted my head and faked an older, frailer voice "E-excuse me, but what do you need?" I asked, my eyes shut to pretend that I'm blind
"Oh sorry lady, but did you see a girl with ears and a tail run by?" the voice wasn't the wizard, he had a deepish voice
"Sorry boy, but I can't see, and no I don't think I heard her anyway" I waved a paw "And I hope you don't mind, but I really need to catch up on my sleep" I yawned to add affect "I keep on being awoken by flies" I then put my head on my paws "But never mind, I wish you luck boy" I then pretended to snore lightly
"Yeah ok lady, sweet dreams" I heard the creature move away and I calmed down Don't worry Alix, they'll never catch you now, might as well rest for now I then relaxed and drifted off into sleep
In a few hours time I woke up, I felt completely rested as I stood up, Huh? Oh right I'm still in fox form I looked under my body and saw my mirror, I leaped into it and came back out in my half human half fox form, my fox ears and tail showing, I grabbed my bow and slung my quiver around my back as I tucked my mirror inside of my quiver, on top of the duck and I slowly walked out of the cave Now where? I looked and saw nothing Well this is a waste of time, oh well better just go find something to do... but where? I looked around and felt my body weaken a little Oh yeah, I have to get more Chi... I picked up the duck from my bag and lay it down on the ground, I hovered my hand over it and closed my eyes This just gets harder and harder each time... I concentrated hard, focusing on the duck's last breaths and its energy, the duck emitted a blue and orange energy that vibrated up my hand, it stretched across my up and consumed my body, I then took one deep breath, and the Chi sucked up inside me, I felt dizzy and fell backwards Great... Chi is supposed to make me stronger, not faint I groaned and sat up slowly, I looked at the duck, it seemed to glow blue for a second then returned to its usual colour Just return it... well ish I attached the duck's necked to an arrow, and picked up my bow and shot the arrow and the duck, back to the forest, I smiled as I placed my bow back in its rightful place and rested my hands on my hips "Done, and done" I grinned, I started walking off "Now, finding a place to stay..." I stared as I walked around, I saw a strange, tree structure in the distance Huh, well, better go check it out! as I sprinted off, towards the tree house, I grinned at my joking words in my head
Watch Out, Trouble's About!
