(Author's note: I started this a LONG time ago. Since then Sevarint got frozen. ;-; The chapters, or scenes, will be short, since I haven't had much practice at this. Forgive meh. Now enjoy the show and REVIEW.)
A beautiful, warm day. The sun smiles down upon a field of lush green grass, the cool breeze making it seem like water. A single butterfly, green and black, flutters above the plain. It flies past the grass, beyond a cluster of pastel-tinted flowers. The solitary butterfly flits over a gurgling stream, singing its endless song to the world. Finally, the butterfly comes to a small house on the outskirts of Neopia. It settles onto a rock in the middle of the yard. The pale green wings slowly wave, a silent greeting to its new surroundings.
Suddenly, a young Kougra pounces the butterfly. Startled, it takes to the skies with the Kougra prancing after it. "Hey, wait up! Come back!" The green cub giggles.
"The butterfly won't listen to you, Sevarint. It's gone off to embed itself in a car radiator." A blue Gelert calls to the Kougra.
"Gimmie a break, Stryderl... Can't a kid have any fun around here?" The Kougra, Sevarint, stops leaping about and scuffs a paw in the dirt.
"Y-y-yeah, S-Stryderl... l-l-let him have his f-f-f-fun." Calls Karsien, a yellow Kacheek. "H-he's o-only young."
"Aw, Kars, I'm not young!" Sevarint crouches low to the ground, annoyed.
"If you're not young, then I'm the King of Krawk Island. Besides, it beats being an old man!" snickers AeroCannon, a blue Pteri.
"Old man, little kid, or anything in between... It doesn't matter! Everyone's gonna know who I am no matter what!" Sevarint leaps onto a rock. "I tell ya, I'm gonna be remembered in the history books. Remembered forever and ever for doing something great... something nobody's ever done before." He grins, waving his tail. Nobody notices as the butterfly returns, observing the scene before it.
"Like being the first Kougra to be mauled by a Gelert because he wouldn't shut up?" Stryderl yelled irately.
"You be quiet. -_-" Sevarint sighed. "You're ruining the mood."
"Oh dear, now we wouldn't want to do THAT, now would we?" Stryderl rolled his eyes, swaggering about in mock horror. "Face it, kid. You wouldn't last five seconds out there!" He gestured a paw out to the vast world beyond.
"I would too! You'll see..." Sevarint snarled, baring his tiny claws and trying to look tough.
"Don't make me laugh." Stryderl flicked an ear at his sibling dismissively.
"Well aren't YOU quite the bundle of sunshine, Stryderl? T_T" AeroCannon snorted.
"He's always l-like this. You're n-n-new to the family, s-s-so y-you wouldn't k-know." Karsien muttered quietly to the newly-adopted Pteri.
"You don't have to be so mean... I'll show you! Someday, when I'm famous for doing something new and exciting, and you're forgotten, we'll see who'd last five seconds, Stryderl!" Sevarint arched his back, hissing at his older brother.
Stryderl just yawned. "Sure, whatever, kid. I'm going inside. You two coming?" He directed the question at Karsien and AeroCannon as he strutted indoors. Both nodded and followed.
"Huh... Who needs him, anyway? I'll prove to him just how long I'll last..." With that, Sevarint turned and ran off, laughing as he bounded through the flora. The butterfly sunned itself on a rock for a few seconds more, then set off east, after Sevarint.
