The night air was cold. The streets were abandoned except for the constant car that would wiz by. It was dark. So dark no one would notice the blue mongoose that strayed to the sidewalk.
Shivering, Sunil Nevla took in his surroundings. He didn't recongnize anything. He winced in pain as he hit his side on a fire hydrant he clearly didn't see. Sunil covered his gash with his paws.
He hated the dog that done this to him. If it was a cobra, he could of taken it, but it was a german shepherd. Well, he tried fighting. Sunil managed to scare it off, but the dog still got the best of him. It was a bite and run.
Sunil cracked a small smile. Maybe this night wouldn't be so bad after all.
"Sunil!" A girl called from up the street.
Sunil ducked behind the corner. Peeking around it, he could make out a girl standing under a streetlight. He recognized her as Blythe, his friend and the only person that can understand pets.
"Do you think we will find him?" A gecko, sitting atop her head, asked.
Sunil groaned. 'And she brought Vinnie with her! He is the reason I ran away!'
Blythe looked up at Vinnie and smiled reassuringly. "I'm sure we will find him."
The gecko nodded. "I hope we do. I wouldn't be happy if.." he trailed off, as though he said enough.
Blythe raised an eyebrow suspicously. "What do you mean?"
Vinnie rubbed the back of his neck nervously. "What I mean is; He is my best friend, and life wouldn't be fun without him."
Sunil scowled. 'Fun?'
Blythe nodded knowingly. "From what I've seen, it doesn't look like your just friends."
"And what does that mean?" Vinnie asked pushing back the lock of his green hair that fell in front of his eyes.
"All I'm saying is your relationship with Sunil is more than friendly."
Sunil nodded in agreement. 'At least she gets it!'
Vinnie shook his head. "I don't see what you mean."
Blythe rolled her eyes. "Nevermind, let's just try some-where else. He clearly isn't here." She started down the street.
Sunil waited 'till they were almost out of sight before stepping out of his hiding place. Now that they were gone, he could go back to searching for the park.
He planned to go there and reunite himself with the racoons. Only if they recongnized him. They called him 'The Racoon King' because of his heroicness and great sense of humor. He saved them from a cobra.
It's a good plan. And because Blythe and Vinnie were out of the way, Sunil can get on with it.
"Now only if I knew were it is.." He mumbled against the wind.
Although he didn't know where he was, he did eliminate the two biggest flies in his web. He just had to hope that the dog he tusseled with doesn't show up.
"We meet again.."
