Chapter I : The First Day.

As the sun rose on every inch of the spherical planet, it sent it's beams on the variegated areas of the Forest, the ledging of a variety of multi-colored animals and a congenial soiled place for the Trufulla trees to grow and spread their velvet silk-like crown.
On a rock, stood the humming fishs in a straight horizontal row, uttering a shrill rooster crow, indicating the begining of an other day of selling for the hard-working human.

The Once-ler yawned as he stretched, opening his eyes slowly. " Woaaaah " cried he as his eyes met the sight of the furry macabre creature catching some Z's on the other half of the bed, the Once-ler's eyes narrowed as he shrinked at the sleeping Lorax, he prodded on the forest guardian's back, slowly, not wanting to affright him and also taking charge not to take a fist punch in his nose, he jabbed his back slightly before getting an answer of the orange weirdo, what might it be other than a clout in the face ? the Once-ler just couldn't change what was tucked into the sequence of the mustached's nucleotides, if he even has one. the Once-ler always mulled over where does the Lorax conceal all this punching powers. he sighed all the rage and the pain he was feeling as he rubbed his nose, which became red by the sharp blow,

- " I'm musing about what can I frigging change in YOU ? why does you always have to do that and before all is it necessary to sleep next to me for the eyekeeping story ? I promised not to chop any more tree..s... Oh, you know what. its the day, I will sell my thneed, the FIRST DAY OF MY FORTUNATE LIFE JUMP." yelled the Once-ler at his 'should-we-say' bedmate, mirthfully, but the Lorax had another say about it, or maybe an other warning to throw at the human.

- " Is it necessary ? I mean have you wasted the few seconds of thinking that over ? is it that all you have to busy your time with ? " Asked the Lorax, wrinkling his brows in discontent,

- " Y-... ah, come on, why are you such a thickhead, mate, its not that bad to chop down few trees, its not that it will bring the Truffula's extinction, You get my point right, how can a fish out of the sea bring the defunctness of it peers. " Raised he his shoulders as he made a gesture with his hands, explaining how simple it was to grasp.

- " That's surely how you all think, I'm not afraid to make the prejudgement on your race, seriously, having a thickhead is not my business but yours, businessMAN... " incriminated the Lorax, making his steps towards the door, uttering the words he flooded the Once-ler's mind with. " You've been warned! "

- " It's not like I'm going to complain about your deduction on my race, make all the deductions you want, as long as you don't cause any threat to my business, I'm not going to change how I look to the life, weirdo " said the other, drawing his tongue to the Lorax.

- " You'll learn when its time to. " rejoined the Lorax as he disappeared amongst the trees.

'Which time I'll learn at ? ' ruminated the Once-ler then humored himself with the proverb that he was familiar with 'Learning comes at anytime, illiterate jungle-eccentric creep. "
Then he took his guitar on his shoulders, taking the road for the selling-place, on his favorite companion, Melvin.

On his road for the public place where he thinks is the ideal place to sell his Thneeds, he started rehearsing the song he was going to perform at the destination he was heading for.

- " Once upon a day, that man found a way
for a knitting masterpiece, What could you say ?
A multifold and patchy germent, pretty sure what you sought.
For both men and women. As for cloaks and as for coats
Its the sol..e.. " crooned the Once-ler ,strumming on his guitar a barely heard tones then stopped suddenly, getting out of the wagon, he turned to notice that the trail of the musical notes he made, enticed the cats and the birds to follow him.

" Aoh, god, You followed me all the way here ? " said he to the animals, as he scratched his chin, murmuring something under his breath 'Well, I think its absurd to be asking animals' then said again, averting his gaze to the town he stopped at. " Its a GREAT DAY ", he grabbed a cat and hugged it tightly, kissing its head. " Wait, I can't take you with me, it would be unfair! You have a lot of friends here and my wagon can't bear you all, I guess I should leave you here. " then answered his own question, looking at the cat " Okay, you agree, right " said he, landing it back on the grass.

" Come on, Melvin " said the Once-ler as he proceeded for the town, unaware that the day he will pass would be his worst and the trigger of a serie of unfortunate events.

The Once-ler looked around for a place where he the passers-by gathered around the most, and pulled the guitar from his wagon, wearing a serious look on his face, he sat on a rock and started thruming idly on the chords, saying as the the crowd, turned to face him.

"Once upon a day, that man found a way
for a knitting masterpiece, What could you .. Shut up already ,can you ? " Said the Once-ler, answered by a salesman who disliked how the Once-ler was singing. The Once-ler frowned as he proceeded towards the salesman, "Who you think you are, to insult me ? We both sell our products, Don't we ? " said he, poking the vendor's face, who's countenances toughened by the poke, and grabbed the Once-ler by the hand, delivering a sharp blow to his nose. " That's what I sell here, fucking clouts for idiots " yelled the seller at the Once-ler, who looked around him as the crowd jostled, closing every single escape for the fighting thneed seller, the Once-ler surmised he would sort this out diplomatically without taking any more punchs in his face. " No no no, It's not how it works, we should rather .. " advised the Once-ler as the crowd shouted " Loser Loser Loser Loser Loser! " repeatedly.

The Once-ler ran as he coasted on the slippery ground in between the legs of the thronging vast horde of people, heading for the hills, for the safety of his self and his nose which endurated two punchs so far, He knew that things were going to get worse if he didn't seize the exact opportunity to scat away at once, but just equally he believed that tomorrow would be completely different and full of glee,maybe merely because of his optimism but who knows, probably if he is lucky enough. In fact that wasn't everything, after running away from the crowd, he met a policeman, inspecting and rummaging around a dead corpse on the ground, the policeman carried many scars on his face, the scars he says were offered to him by a bunch of bastards who ended up jailed in the Superjail, He was a fat policeman, bribed for a single Hamburger and once the running Once-ler got in his range of view he immediately run after him, accusing him for the kill he didn't even put his glooved hands into.
The Once-ler looked back at the racing policeman as if a petroleum-fueled car, trailing smoke. and said waving with his hand,running.

- " Is it by any chance me, after whom you're running, sorry, because I did nothing, I'm solely a guest on this town, i just laid my feet on it an hour ago, maybe I can help you, I've seen enough fools here. " asked the Once-ler. What the Once-ler haven't in mind, was that the policeman was a hoggish and gluttonous one, who had been inspecting on this murder two weeks contineously,which is tiring him, espacially that he -now- is ought to be taking his daily lunch, a hamburger with five or six layers of cheese and beef meat.

-" You can't fool me, You're the culprit, on the behalf of the justice I'm ordering you to stop. " yelled the inspector, The Once-ler had to think of a way out of this tomfoolery and madness 'What happened here ?' ruminated the Once-ler, waking up with a punch in the face, arguing with an orange peanut then fighting with a salesman and lastly being caught by the police, that can't just happen to the hero of this story, or maybe the last one, because the others HAD to happen in order to smoothen the way to the followings.

As the Thneed seller was doing his mental and physical best to get out of this endless loop of ill-starred events, a slender arms dragged him into a capacious and spacious house, ornamented with a variety of paintings, which for the Once-ler seemed as if not appealing the owner of the house's predilections himself or herself, but intended to appeal his or her guest's ones.

- " Shuuush" shushed a young looking girl with a curly brown hair and a round-shaped glasses, ressembling a nerd's as she asked him to sit while she prepares the tea.
- " Wait, can you explain to me what is happening in this town, I'm sure something is missing in the minds of it's inhabitants, a raging bald seller who attempted to steal my consciousness because I was singing for the cr..owd.. well, they did not deserve it, and a fatass policeman, it's doesn't make sense to me at all, what is their problem ? " complained the Once-ler, tapping on the table with his fingers nerveously as the young girl sat near him, taking a long and deep breath.
- " Hum, I don't have any idea, how can you ask me, when I am a part of this town already ? look, all I can say to you is that YOU are the cause of this mess, you probably did what wasn't supposed to be done, or maybe you weren't kind enough for them ? as for the moment, my name is Norma and i've been listening to you chanting, I liked it. " said she as her cheeks turned a bright red by the last sentence.

- " Thank you for the compliment, but what did you mean by 'what wasn't supposed to be done ?, is it a science fiction story you read ? " rejoined the Once-ler.

- " Absoluetly, no, It's just something that occured to me too when I first came to this town, I was caught by the same loop, " answered she then added " But I'm not sure what to think about it,"

- " Total absurdity. " finished the Once-ler.

- " You can stay here for the night, please feel free to choose any room you want. " proposed the girl.

- " Okay.." nodded the Once-ler.

Notes : It's an AU (science fiction ?) fiction about the Once-ler and Norma being caught in a mysterious loop of unfortunate events, together in the coming up chapters will sort it out, I hope you like it.
Concerning the future chapters, I'm not sure wether to make this multi-chaptered or one-chaptered, feel free to suggest, anyways they will be late mostly, because I'm passing lot of exams nowadays, so bear with this beautiful story.
