chapter 2 coco bandicoot

As you know coco is one of the mutated bandicoots which escaped from neo's lab but Nathan doesn't know that but coco has a strange felling that she knows him. Coco is running around catching butterflies.

as it is one of her hobbies apart from her laptop" a Asian butterfly no a common admiral oh oh! Even better a owl butterfly I think?" coco was caught up in her butterflies that she didn't realise she was entering a darkened swamp the only place where light never touches " hmmm I don't think I should be here" She suddenly heard a growling noise and hissing noise coming from the swamp " what was that" it grew louder and louder circling around the tall ferns and grass then suddenly stopped coco's heartbeat was beating so fast you could hear it " I better go before the thing comes back" as she was backing off very slowly a huge crocodile plunged out of the ferns coco wanted to scream but nothing seemed to come out the crocodile ran to her she ran backwards and tripped over a tree root she closed her eyes but she noticed nothing happened she opened her eyes to see a young boy about her age grabbed the crocodile which was an inch away from her face and threw it to one side the boy went in after the crocodile coco struggled to her feet and with widened eyes watched them. " hmm dad did say this had all kinds of weapons I wonder if it has electric tools, chainsaw!" his arm turned into a chainsaw by voice command he used it on the reptiles tail and sliced it blood went everywhere it was too gruesome for coco to watch, with that the crocodile wailed and galloped off with a trail of blood behind him.

Coco once again closed her eyes for a brief second and opened them again to see the boy in front of her " oh you startled me" " sorry are you ok" " I'm fine thank you" she looked at his leg, blood was coming through his jeans a tooth was his leg " but your not" she said " me ha! Ow no I'm alright I'm used to this kind of thing I get it five times a day at home" he said half groaning he yanked the tooth out of his leg " see " coco gave a long stare at him " what's your name?" nathan risen from his feet " Nathan, have you got a name" " when someone calls me they call me coco so I guess that is my name" she said feeling very awkward " coco? that's a nice name" " Nathan?" coco said " hmm?" Nathan replied " you saved me and how you defended yourself was amazing I find that very attractive" coco flickered her eye at him " whoa whoa whoa now, now I realise your grateful that I saved you and all but do you mind waiting a few years before you start flirting with me" " sorry I don't know what came over me " coco felt very foolish and her face turned a bright pink " its ok " Nathan saw it was getting dark " oh no I better get home my father will be displeased" " wait, can I meet you somewhere tomorrow" coco looked at Nathan with puppy dog eyes " what you want to meet me somewhere tomorrow?" " yeah" " sure where do you want me to meet you" " that was a quick answer, well meet me at the shores of N.sanity island" " ok sure I'll try and make it as soon as possible, but I don't know what I'm supposed to do with this crocodile tail?" coco sneered at the tail " well goodbye" " bye then... I'll see you tomorrow" " yeah, yeah I am in deep sludge" said Nathan in a distressed manner

" can't wait until tomorrow I've got to plan things I need a schedule I need… a house doh!" coco smacks one hand on her face " I just realised where am I going to stay its getting dark I better start building one, do I even know how to build a house, oh well I'm sure I can fix up something well just for shelter anyway."

and so coco gathered up bits of building materials to start building a home she printed out blueprints (coco stole many things when she was at cortex castle) and began to build the time was 8:15 " oh I'm never going to finish this in one night I've only done 1 layer" as she said this her wall began to collapse in but with a heavy groan she continued to work she was sweating and bleeding in the process. " I can't pant take this anymore, I think I might sleep on the sand tonight I'm half way there anyway I can finish the rest tomorrow" she looked towards cortex castle "I hope crash has somewhere suitable to sleep I feel terrible after leaving him and tawna with that monstrosity." coco then yawned and curled herself up next to a rock"

It was 9:15 before Nathan returned home and he was tired and sore " where have you been Nathan have you seen the time you were supposed to be back at eight sharp" cortex snapped " sorry dad" " excuse me what is the correct name to pronounce me?" Nathan sighed in grief " sorry " " that's better you are forgiven" " hey Nathan " said nina, nathan was silent " still given me the silent treatment " no just wanted to say nothing is that a problem" " what's wrong with you?" " I'm tired I'm knackered and I'm sore" " I know, you must be after wrestling with that reptile and with blood on your leg" " what have I told you about spying on me!" " no matter anyway that's not what bothers me" " I thought everything bothered you" " shut up! I'm being serious" " so am I" nathan grinned " now listen " " you haven't told dad have you" " of course not, but Nathan that girl isn't human" " I know that " " but do you know what she is " " I don't know, oh please do tell me" said Nathan in a sarcastic way " well do you remember those two bandicoots" "I knew her name was familiar so shes a bandicoot" " yes Nathan that female is the bandicoot used in the mutation experiment" " dad did say something about that but I didn't believe it would work, but it did wow but I don't understand dad wouldn't just let them go that easily" " apparently there was a third bandicoot which crash fell a fond for. you remember crash the dopey one that span round and round the cage" " it was funny until he stopped" "Well anyway while the experiment was taking it's roots it made crash and the bandicoot formally known as tawna evolved into a more human shape while coco evolved after the scene with uncle neo ending up trying to catch crash. Crash got away through the castle window but tawna did not they never saw crash that day and that's all I know I'm guessing coco got away some how I mean how did she end up in the swamp" " how do you know all this nina?" " I was listening through the keyhole of course" " for once your information has been very useful to me nina thank you" " no problem but don't ever thank me again" nina hissed " fine, hey da.. I mean can I go out tomorrow sir? you pathetic old man " " for your correction of speech Nathan you may" " most appreciated sir" " where are you going tomorrow like?" " going to see coco of course " " why?" " because I like her" " I hope you tell her who you are" " no way! If I tell her I'm the son of a cortex she'll be sure to turn me away" " and your not happy because" " because I want to build a kind of relationship with her" " you mean like a love relationship" " no!" " yes it is ha ha, man I can see it now you and that thing getting married and having a little pitter patter of little deformed children" " shut up nina, you can't say much yourself about deformed look at your teeth and your blue face you look like the cookie monster crossed with bugs bunny " nina was silent " uncle neo! Nathans being mean to me" and nina ran off " humph cry baby!" Nathan that was a bit mean wasn't it even for you. " nina, nina wait I didn't mean what I said nina!"
