Shadows

Hi everybody! I reckon Couscous is awesome so I put him in this fanfic. Even though he's the evil one. Lights, camera, ACTION!!!

Cacao the minstrel was in his room writing a song when he saw a dark shadow slip past his window. Curious as to what he had seen he peered out the window and looked left and right but the shadow had long gone. Cacao shrugged and returned to his work.

Meanwhile the shadow was weaving its way through Matataki Village, past the Wise Owl Shop, past the baron's house, slowing down only when it reached its target. Couscous' house!

**************

Treeant was worried. He had seen the shadow pass by his cave and he had sensed that it, whatever it was, was a being of great power. Trouble was brewing, Treeant knew it. And he knew who could stop the trouble too.

Couscous heard the door of his turtle-shell house creak open. He looked up from his seemingly ever-lasting candy supply in surprise. Couscous had never had many visitors and those he did have didn't really care for him, just his candy. This time however it was somebody, well, something, he had never seen before. It was a large, purple being, slightly rounded, with a red gem embedded in its belly.

"Hello, sir. Would you like some candy?" Couscous asked politely. The visitor did not answer but smiled hideously, showing its sharpened teeth. The gem in its belly glowed red and blasted a beam of blood-red light at Couscous. Large claws sprouted out of Couscous' hands and the candy gripped tightly in his hand grew to a ridiculous size.

Minutes later Couscous emerged from his house and his eyes flashed red. Six growling words could be heard throughout the village.

"Kill the master of the Atlamilla!"

I know its short but it's only the first chapter. They'll (hopefully) get longer. And remember. REEEEVVVVVVVIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
