Chapter 3: First Encounter

Flippy and General Alana were at the outskirts of town, they were at the woods where Lumpy and Handy were camping in the same area. But Flippy didn't believe someone would be hiding in here since this was a camping area.

"Is this the place?" Flippy asked.
"I think so, because he liked to be in the woods, away from the civilization." General Alana answered.

"But in here?" Flippy was getting confused by someone might hiding in here because this part of the woods was inhospitable because it was a barren woodlands.

They searched deeper into the forest and they found Lumpy and Handy was setting up their camp. Lumpy was busy getting his tent upright but it was getting worst as he tried while Handy was lighting some fire wood but he didn't had hands.

"What are you doing?" General Alana asked Handy, the amputee.

"I am trying to light up the firewood." Handy answered.

"But…..your hands are gone." General Alana was completely shocked to see someone without hands might do something that really required hands. She turned around and asked Flippy, "Your friends are weird."

"Yes, they are." Flippy made a short reply.

They went off to locate the villain that General Alana was looking for. They looked at the cave where General Alana first found him during the 1980 prison break.

"OK Alana, who do you want to find?" Flippy asked.

"It is very difficult to explain." General Alana replied.

"Just say it."

"This is your call."

'I was been assigned to look after an evil communist warrior named Flipkane after he killed a guard that teased him. During the 80s, someone had blown up the prison wall and let the prisoner including Flipkane to escape. I went out to get him back until he attacked me at this very cave, but in the end, I captured him and sent him back to the prison.'

Flippy was getting more confused. In his mind, bore a thought, who was this Flipkane? And was he related to General Alana. He stopped and asked, "Who is Flipkane?"

General Alana looked at Flippy for a moment and made a short reply, "Flipkane is a evil ruby red communist fox, his eyes were red all the time and he knows how to exploit the evil side of his victim and succumb them with their own evil side. He is dangerous but also a prefect weapon for the military."

They looked around the cave where General Alana recaptured Flipkane but they found nothing. They returned to their Humvee until they found the engine was dead.

"This is great!" General Alana sighed.
"We can stay with Lumpy and Handy." Flippy suggested.

"OK, just for one night."

They reached the camping site and they found Lumpy was sitting next to the now lit fireplace. His face was imprinted with anxiety and fear, like he was seen a ghost.

"What happened to you and where is Handy?" Flippy asked.

"Handy went to the creek but he did not show up after that." Lumpy answered with sounds of fear.

"I think he might get encountered some beast." General Alana said.
"I not think so, shall we look for him?"

General Alana nodded and Flippy, Lumpy went to look for Handy but before they can leave they heard some noises from the bushes. Flippy and Lumpy went to take a look when a lifeless body appeared. The body was brutally mutilated and his lower body was gone.

"Who is it?" Lumpy asked.

"I don't know." Flippy replied. He turned the body around since the body was laid face down and it was Handy.

Lumpy was scared the hell out of him. Whoever did this to Handy must be very bloody thirsty and violent. Then all of the sudden, two figures appeared right behind Lumpy and Flippy. One of them had red eyes and the other had green eyes, all glowing in the darkness.

"Who are they?" Flippy asked.

"That one is Flipkane but I don't know who the other one is." General Alana answered.

"Guess who comes to play?" Flipkane said, breaking the enigma.

They walked closer to the light and Flippy was literally fainted on the spot. Beside the ruby red wolf, laid his evil side, a lime green bear, his face was covered with blood from the previous killing and his was holding a knife on his hand.

"This is impossible!" Flippy yelled.

"Yes, it is." Flipkane said.

***

General Alana was in danger now, her life was in stake. Flipkane had just killed Lumpy with his laser sword and Flippy had to make a life or death decision that might end General Alana's life.

"Do you surrender?" Flipkane asked.

"No." Flippy said.

"OK then, Flippy, finish him!"

E. Flippy engaged Flippy with his knife but Flippy were able to dodge the blade. He tripped E. Flippy and he fall face down. Flippy took his knife from his hands and placed it on E. Flippy's neck.

"Kane, if you want your follower to live, let go General Alana." Flippy ordered.

"I should not follow your pathetic negotiation." Flipkane refused.

Flippy was not very angry, he forced his evil side to kneel down (For the first time) and aimed his knife just above his head.

"You know if you kill him that means you kill yourself." Flipkane noted.

"He is right! He is a part of you, if you kill him that means you kill yourself." General Alana added.

"If you don't want to kill myself, you shall let go General Alana." Flippy said.

Flipkane let go of General Alana while Flippy let go of his evil side to join with Flipkane.

"See you next time!" Flipkane mocked.

Disappointed by the loss, they went back to their Humvee and Flippy hotwired the vehicle. This time, General Alana let Flippy to drive the vehicle.

"You should kill him when you kept your evil side captivate." General Alana said.

"No." Flippy said and stepped on the gas pedal.

"What is the reason?"

"He had a special meaning to me."

"Do you mean your evil side?"

"Yes."

"There is your house."

"I guess I shall see you later."
"OK, I live nearby."

General Alana took back control of the Humvee and went off to her house right next to Lumpy's. Flippy sighed and entered the house when he found out his house was ransacked like a tornado had been touching down here. He had a hard time to clean it up. In the meantime, Flipkane and E. Flippy were at town, hungry for victims……
