See me, feel me precious Mondo
Chapter 10
"Woah...what the heck is this?" Flaky wandered around and found a tree. "Ah! A house!" Flaky sprinted towards and found that it wasn't a house at all. Just a regular tree. "...strange." She walked down the road and saw something like a car. "Ah! People! They can give me directions!" She gladly ran across the field and looked in the car. The people were different. Some sort of... Aliens... She found a nearby town and went into the store. The cashier looked at Flaky and said, "Go on you little hedgehog, into the woods with you." The cashier grabbed Flaky by under her armpits and carried her towards the woods. "Hey, mister! I don't belong here! I need directions!" "Yeah, yeah, squeak all you want. Nonetheless, your a woodland critter." Before the man put her down to the ground, she looked at his watch. 6:22. Uh oh, her visit with Mondo is almost up. She has about three hours left to actually get back into her cosmos of time and space. The man patted her head, smiled at her, and went back to his store. "I have three hours to get back. But, if I look like a normal critter here, I gotta find out how everything works here." She entered the inner woods and wandered on two feet, then she met a bunny. "Hey...are you cuddles?" The rabbit squeaked once in confusion. "I guess critters don't talk here." The bunny looked deeply into Flaky's eyes and put on an angry face. "Hey, red head! I talk, just not to the human freaks." Flaky looked relieved that the bunny can talk. "Humans? What are they? Another type of woodland critter?" "What? Where have you been? Living under a rock? The humans are the ones that dominates this planet. Not us. When they see us, they kidnap us to turn us into something called 'pets'." "I came from a small town called Happy Tree Town." Flaky answered politely. "Huh? What is that? A fairy tale land 'cause I never heard of such thing." "It's because I came from a different part of this thing called cosmos of time and space." "Hmm. If you say that, can you take me there? I wanna see for myself. What's it like?" Flaky got a smile on her face and started. "Well, my world has no such things called Humans, is that what it is. Yeah okay. We critters dominate the planet. The entire planet. Not a human in sight. But we find some unusual bones of life forms that must've vaporized a long time ago." "Weird lookin' bones you say? Come, follow me, got somethin' to show ya." Flaky followed the bunny through the forest. The bunny jumped into a rabbit hole. Flaky jumped in. "Hey I never got you name. What's your name? "It's Flaky." "Well my name is Buster. Here. I have pictures that I'm gonna show you. You tell me if the bones looked like these." Flaky studied the bones in the photograph. "Yes! It's these bones! Same structure and everything!" "Oh dear." Buster started to get a look as if he figured something out. "What's wrong Buster?" "That explains everything!" "Explains what?" "My ancestors and ancestors of every critter were here first. Then, The Humans began appearing. Never knew where they came from. But now we know!" "I got to tell my friends about this!" "Woah, woah. You can't do that!" "Well why not?" "If you do, your friends will have no idea what your talking about!" Flaky wanted to say something, but changed her mind. "Okay. You got to go back and bring your friends here however way you got here." "Okay. I will. *Gasp* I got less than a minute to get back to Mondo's place! It's the only way into my world!" "Good luck, Flaky." Flaky sprints across the field and pass the first tree into the crack, barely making it by having a few quills being cut off. But still, quills cut off or not, she made it back to Mondo, being sent back to Happy Tree town after a long 24 hours.
