Author's Note: Hi Everybody! This is my first fanfiction ever, I'm excited to be joining a community of writers who write about things that they love. I hope that you all enjoy my stories and leave lots of reviews. PS. Please do not flame the pairing, I know that their are a lot of Flippy x Flaky fans out there, but this is a creation based upon my opinion and I hope that you can appreciate it for its content. PPS. Does anyone know how to make the text double spaced? This was created with Microsoft Word 2007 and was double spaced by me clicking enter after the end of each line, but I'd like to know if there is an easier way. Info would be much appreciated!

Part 1: Caramel Carnage

Our story starts off at Nutty's candy striped tree home. Outside is incredibly cold and snowing, inside Nutty is getting himself ready to enjoy a nice, hot cup of cocoa and making

some caramel corn over his fireplace. Being Nutty, he wants a lot of caramel corn so he keeps adding more unpopped corn kernels and caramel until he is barely able to close the pot shut.

Suddenly, Nutty realizes that he has no firewood to burn, and as he is about to go outside to fetch some, a cold gust of air hits him directly, making him shut the door and shiver

immensely. Disappointed that he will not be able to enjoy caramel corn, he notices the numerous candy wrappers he has lying around, and after thinking, decides to burn them instead.

Giggling eagerly about be able to finally get caramel corn, he gathers the wrappers into a pile and stuffs them into the fireplace. He then strikes a match, and throws it into the pile of

wrappers. Almost immediately, the wrappers burst in flames, creating a larger fire than Nutty had anticipated. He screams in panic and runs outside to fetch a bucket of water. He finds the

bucket and the outside faucet, and desperately tries to twist it to get water. By the time he does manage to turn the faucet, the little water that comes out instantly freezes. Nutty throws

down the bucket in frustration and then notices that the top of his tree house is now ablaze too. In a panic, he runs inside to save his few remaining possessions, when all of a sudden he

notices something black at the core of the fire. Gasping, he realizes that it's the pot of caramel corn. With the immense heat, the popping popcorn inside the pot is building up pressure

and at the same time, the melting caramel had sealed the lid shut, leaving the pressure unable to escape, then with the force of a nuclear reactor, the pot explodes, sending Nutty flying

through the now exposed top of his burning house. Nutty then lands head first in the snow, and after a few seconds pulls himself together to see that his house is now nothing but a

charred and exploded mess. Being badly injured, burnt, and now freezing cold, he crouches down in the snow to mourn his losses. Suddenly, a sweet smell permeates the air and reaches

Nutty's nose. Weak and exhausted, Nutty forces him up and staggers through the snow, following the sweet smell.

A short distance away is the house of Flaky, with her kitchen window open, she is inside she is making one of her delicious pies. After putting it down to cool for a bit, she hears

someone thumping on her door. She walks over to the door, lifts away the door's window curtain, and on the other side she sees Nutty's hungry face, pressed against the glass with his

tongue hanging out. She screams, closes the curtain, and begins to clutch her heart, gasping heavily. After a few seconds to collect herself, she slowly opens the door and Nutty's frozen

body falls on her floor. She screams again, and after a second, looks down on him, as though she's not sure what to do.
