Hamster Candy

Welcome to my next fic! My last one was kind of dark and depressing so I wanted this one to be more humorous and action-y. Please R&R!

Hamtaro slid out of the drain pipe and went flying through the air, performing a flip as he did. "Oompaaaa!" He landed safely on Brandy's head. "Thanks Brandy, see you later!" Hopping off the slumbering dog's head, Hamtaro hurried off.

On most days, Hamtaro would head to the clubhouse to hang out with his friends, but not today. The ham hams had planned to have lunch in the park, each one carrying their food in their tiny back packs.

"Okay, so where were we meeting again?" Hamtaro asked himself as he entered the park. He looked over at the slide. "Nope not over there." He turned his attention to the sandbox. "Not there…" He gave the sandbox a closer look. "I-Is it me, or is the sand alive?" Cautiously scampering over to the sandbox, the curious hamster took a look inside.

He soon discovered that the sand was far from alive. The only thing inside was a small cloudy white hamster with an upside-down dark yellow triangle going from his head to the middle of his back. He was standing on an orange plastic shovel while holding a rope.

Hamtaro smiled as he waved to the hamster. "Hamha! I'm Hamtaro, what's your name?"

The smaller hamster smiled excitedly at Hamtaro. "I'm Zippo and it's time for liftoff!" He tugged on the rope, causing it to pull a rock out of the tree. Before Hamtaro could do anything, the rock landed on the other side of the shovel, causing it to shoot Zippo into the air.

Zippo spread his arms out and cheered. "Yahoooooo!"

"Don't worry, I'll catch you!" shouted Hamtaro as he ran after the swiftly flying hamster. However, he knew that there was no way he could catch Zippo.

After performing a double back flip, Zippo landed on top of the slide, shoving his fist into the air. "That was totally super special awesome! Yeah!"

Hamtaro came to a stop at the base of the slide, breathing a sigh of relief as he did. "Boy, that was close."

"Are you okay Hamtaro?" The orange and white hamster looked over to see the rest of the ham hams running towards him.

"We heard you yelling from across the park," noted Boss. "What's goin' on?"

"That hamster is!" replied Hamtaro as he pointed up to the slide.

Taking a running start, Zippo belly-flopped onto the slide, flying down it before being shot into the air. "This…is…awesome!" He attempted to perform a triple front flip, but he could start the third rotation, he landed head first onto the ground, skidding a few feet before stopping. The ham hams immediately came running, hurrying over to Zippo's side.

"Please tell me someone knows CPR," said Pashmina.

As soon as the ham hams reached Zippo, the younger hamster hopped up to his paws. "That was cool! I was like a worm 'cause I ate dirt!" He spit a couple times in an attempt to get the taste out of his mouth. "Dirt doesn't taste good."

Before the ham hams could say anything, Zippo raced over to Penelope. "Whoa! You look like one of those ghosts from Pac Man!"

Penelope looked at him quizzically. "Ookwee?"

Zippo hurried over to Sandy and Stan, gazing at them with awe. "Holy moley, I'm seeing double!"

Bijou looked over at Hamtaro. "Zere zeems to be zomezing wrong with zis hamster…"

"Wow, you talk funny," said Zippo as he began to run circles around the French hamster. "Are you from Mars or Venus or Pluto or…"

Boss stood in front of the smaller hamster. "Hey, you better watch what you say about Bijou!"

Zippo sidestepped pass Boss. "I can definitely watch you, 'cause you're freakin' huge!" He hurried over to Oxnard and began to poke his chubby gut. "So is mister ham boobs here!"

Oxnard frowned sadly. "I-I don't have ham boobs!"

The hyperactive hamster stopped suddenly and began to dig through his back pack. "Oh yeah, I got so distracted with launching myself into the air that I forgot to do what I came here to do." He pulled out a sunflower seed, which looked like it was coated in some sort of sticky substance. He turned his attention to Oxnard. "Try it mister ham boobs!"

Oxnard looked as he was close to tears. "I don't have…" Zippo forced the seed into Oxnard's mouth, causing a smile to grow on the grey and white hamster's face. "Wow, this is really good! What is it?"

"It's hamster candy!" exclaimed Zippo as he began handing out samples to each of the ham hams.

"Um, but candy isn't good for hamsters," noted Maxwell. "Isn't that gonna make us sick?"

Zippo shook his head. "You see, my mommy owner's a chemist and my daddy owner owns a candy store. They combined forced to make a sugary treat for us to eat. It's all the yummy goodness of candy without the death!"

Stan quickly ate his hamster candy, licking stickiness from his paws. "This stuff's good lil' ham dude."

Sandy nodded in agreement. "Yeah, do you, like, have anymore?"

"Nope, sorry," replied Zippo as he showed his empty back pack to the ham hams. "But I have an idea! Do you know where the candy store is?"

Hamtaro nodded. "Yeah, I've heard my owner talk about it."

"Come there tomorrow morning and I can give you a bunch of free samples!" exclaimed Zippo as he threw on his back pack. "My work his is done so bye bye!" He hurried out of the park, performing unnecessary flips and spins over any objects that got in his way.

"He's kinda weird, but this candy stuff's amazing,' replied Boss.

Oxnard looked at his chest. "Do I seriously have ham boobs?"

Night had fallen over the town, causing most stores to close up for the night, including the candy store. Zippo's cage was in the back of the store, where he ran on his whiz wheel. "Faster, faster, fast…" He tripped over his paws, causing him to fall. The momentum and speed of the whiz wheel caused him to somersault repeatedly until he came to a stop a few seconds later. "That was kinda freaky, but fun! I wanna do it again, but faster!"

Looking to the left, he eyed a large bag, which read 'hamster-formulated sugar'. "I bet I could go faster with some of that stuff." Crawling out of his cage, he ran over to the bag, head butting it. However, he only achieved in hurting his head, the bag still in place. He stood behind the bag of sugar, placing his front paws on the wall while his back paws were on the bag. Kicking outward, the bag began to gradually tip until it finally tipped over.

Zippo gazed at the white powder, his eyes twinkling and a smile of excited joy on his face. "It's the mother load!"

I hope everyone enjoyed the chapter! Just to make sure, Zippo is Cappy's age. Please R&R!
