His name was Atom. Sad, lonely Atom was what chao at kinder garden called him. He wondered if he would ever have a friend. He sniffed. He cried almost everyday but no one noticed. So sad he was. He watched some of the other chao swim but he knew he would drown if he tried. Two chao named Blu and Maxi were whispering about him. They were they only other chao in the garden. Until that one day.
It was an amazing day, a changing day, for him. Atom didn't know what was coming.
He sat near where their owner, either Shadow or Sonic, placed the nuts. It was near the contraption that Shadow or Sonic would place a chao in and the chao would never come out…he was scared that would happen to him. He wasn't hungry but just the sight of the food made his stomach gurgle.
He heard a loud noise and vibration. He looked toward the entrance and saw Shadow throw out a white, shiny egg. Atom marveled at the egg. It shined in the sunlight and Shadow kicked it. How could Shadow kick such a wonderful object?
"Stupid egg," he huffed under his breath, "Just because Sonic told me to buy you doesn't mean I'll treat you nice." He squinted at the egg as if he could use special vision to make sure whatever what was inside that egg would have a bad life. He walked out of the garden, huffing.
Blu and Maxi also saw the egg. They had already run over to it, staring. Atom could slightly see their small bodies threw the egg.
"Do you wonder what's inside, Blu?" Maxi asked in their special chao language that no one really understood outside of the chao race, but I'll translate it into English for you.
"Duh. Don't you?" Blu responded. No, they didn't bother asking Atom what he thought of the egg. He was too lonely and sad. Sad, lonely Atom. And he couldn't take it anymore!
"Why not ask me!" Atom said in a whiney tone. Maxi and Blu just looked at him like he was crazy. Atom ran over to them, furious.
"Oh no! He's running toward us! Ruuun!" Blu said, after leading Maxi back into the water, "Nya nya nya!" they yelled back at him, knowing he couldn't swim.
Atom frowned as tears formed in his dark, oval-shaped eyes. He looked at the egg, furiously. He decided to take out his anger on the egg, just not in that content. He squinted his eyes shut and, as he learned in soccer in school that one day, kicked the egg over with all his might, which only made it roll a few times…
Maxi and Blu started laughing at him, in their rude teasing tone.
"What a baby!" Maxi called out.
"…Nyaaaa!" Atom cried.
"Psssh." Blu blew him off. Atom sat down, head high, crying. Poor sad, lonely Atom.
