CHAPTER 8

WANTED TOURNIQUET

Cappy leaned backwards on the barrel, yawning. His eyes were half closed, and the capped-one looked around him and surroundings lazily. Mostly he noted Penelope looking most uncomfortable, and held her tummy like she had a stomachache. Come to think of it, so did he. As if on cue, Cappy's stomach rumbled. It was a quiet rumble, but noticeable. Bijou sighed, and gave Cappy a small smile.

"Here. This is a storage room, I think. After all, I found some of these sunflower seeds. Don't eat the cracked ones, though. You never know where the wolf has been, or what it may have done." Bijou said, surprised at her own wisdom. Whirring of wind sounded as Cappy ate ravenously. Penelope huddled against Bijou, shuddering with cold, and with worry. All the commotions that had happened were really getting to her head. Taking a sunflower seed as well, Penelope munched on it. Her mind was eating, too. All the clues and events gave the curious hamster some food for thought.

Eventually all five had gotten a bite to eat. Hamtaro looked at the door nervously, because it wobbled a bit from the wind. Or, it may have been something else, but Hamtaro didn't want to exactly think about the possibilities.

"Guys, I think we should to the main room. That would be the least expected place the wolf would actually think we'd go. The wind, or whatever is going on, could be lethal to us. We should skip the pepper spray idea, and just make a run for it." Hamtaro said, his voice clearly shaken. All the Ham-Hams nodded, giving each other worried looks. Opening the door a crack, Hamtaro peeped through the area. The coast was clear. Tiptoeing with extreme care, they made it back to the main room. A foul smell was amongst the room, which came from the corpse of Snoozer, and possibly the others. Trying to block out the smell, the Ham-Hams pinched their nostrils together. The main room didn't have its usually cheery atmosphere anymore. It was replaced with a gloomy and melancholic one. Stan sighed. Suddenly, the whirring became louder and louder. A breeze was flowing in the room, which seemed impossible, but it was. The door was breaking, and the wind was pushing against it, making it creak. The door just then decided to let the stronger force take over it, and it flew out of place. All the Ham-Hams ran out of the door's path. All except Bijou, however. The poor girl was too shocked at the sudden change of ambiance. Bijou was hit, and Hamtaro screamed.

"Bijou!" he cried out. Branches flew in, and as Stan looked out the doorway, he saw something he had never seen before. A big, gray twister was making its way towards the clubhouse. The tiger-striped hamster grabbed the doorframe, which was a handy move, because he suddenly felt a sudden sucking sensation. Grabbing whatever he could to yank himself back inside, Stan screamed. Hamtaro and Bijou, as soon as the French one was freed, ran over to Stan. Pulling him back inside, Cappy and Penelope clutched onto the three.

"We're scared, Hamtaro!" whined Cappy. Hamtaro nodded, and spoke in reply.

"We all are." He murmured.

Somewhere else, the wolf was waiting patiently to make an attack. Then from out of the blue, the wolf heard screaming and wind. Not too long after, a crash was sounded. Who dares try to kill the hamsters, when I'm supposed too? thought the wolf angrily. Running to the source of the noise, the wolf stopped abruptly as it came upon many piles of debris. Branches flew around the room, and rotting gore was in the middle of it. The door lay broken to the side. Terribly confused, as it had never experienced a tornado before, he caught sight of the Ham-Hams in a bunch in a corner. The Silver Gray immediately took action and bounded to the Ham-Hams. The hamsters saw it, and ran to the nearest haven. The haven, unfortunately, was the great outdoors. The wolf crashed into the wall, not expecting the hamsters to run. Leaping outside as well, the wolf looked around. It became even more confused, struggling to move. The Ham-Hams ran towards a small burrow, screaming their lungs out, but the wolf followed anyways.

CRACK!

The top of the tree fell, and it landed on the Silver Gray. The wolf hollered in pain. It screamed angrily at one of the Ham-Hams, but none of the hamsters could tell whom it was directed to. Cappy stopped running to safety, and looked pitifully at the wolf. Cappy ran to the wolf and tried to free him. Penelope shouted with fear. The wolf did nothing, as it wanted to be freed. The wind was blowing around them, and all the Ham-Hams were struggling to stay on the ground. Nearby, another tree fell over, cutting cables, which sent electrical cords flying. Landing on ground, the bolts started fires. The wolf began to panic. Bijou ran to Cappy, and dragged him away.

"C'mon, Cappy. We got to get outta here!" she yelled over the wind. At that point, the wolf managed to lift the now-log up, and run out from underneath it. Its incredible strength shocked Bijou once again, and didn't move from the falling log's path. Thus resulting in the log landing on Bijou, squishing her to death.

"BIJOU!" Hamtaro shrieked, and tried desperately to make his way over to her. Stan stopped him reluctantly. The tornado was getting dangerously close. The wolf, studying Bijou with surprise but pleasure, began to scarf down as much meat, gore, blood and organs as he could from the girl. Penelope began to scream frantically, flailing her arms about. Hamtaro managed grab Cappy, and Penelope, Hamtaro, Cappy, and Stan ran into the burrow. The wolf followed, but nobody noticed, except Cappy. Too concerned about getting to the burrow, he let the wolf follow them. Safely seated in the burrow, Stan tried to shut the door.

"It won't shut, dudes!" the boy yelled.

"What! Stan, our lives practically DEPEND on this thing shutting, you know!" Stan nodded, frustrated.

"I know, man, I know!" he hollered, panic rising dangerously.

Hamtaro and Stan both pulled and pulled, but nothing happened. The wind was just too strong. Giving up, the hamsters did the only thing possible- dig deeper. Hopefully the tornado would pass over, and they would have nothing to fear.

YAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWNYAWN

Much, much later, after the tornado passed over them, the Ham-Hams climbed back up. The area was a mess. The walked over to the log where Bijou lay beneath, and Hamtaro began to sob. A tear fell from Stan's eyes, and Penelope simply kicked the log as hard as she could. Cappy said nothing, but just sat there on the ground, staring at Bijou with heavyheartedness, almost guilt for making her attempt to rescue him. Clouds cleared away, and the sun shined down on them. What irony. Just then, something fell from the sky. Something colored royal blue.

"Bijou's ribbon…" Hamtaro whispered, grabbing the cloth. He wrapped it around his wrist as a memorial. "Let's all go home." He added, sprinting away from the place. Unfortunately, before the others got a chance to even take one step forward, the wolf appeared, roaring. Tackling Hamtaro to the ground, the Silver Gray raised its claws to strike. Cappy, Stan, and Penelope could do nothing. But being Hamtaro, he used his fast reflexes to grab a sharp stick and pierced the Silver Gray's chest. It howled in pain. Bleeding enormously, the wolf collapsed. Hamtaro had dug the stick in the Silver Gray's chest quite deep, and was loosing blood fast. In fact, you could have called it abnormal. Hamtaro rolled out from underneath the wolf, and they all watched in silence as the wolf howled and roared. Cappy stared, his jaw dropping slowly. The wolf stared back, as its last moments were being taken up.

"Cappy…" it growled, the wolf's voice raspy. "Fulfill my task…" it choked out. Breathing became hard, and its vision became fuzzy. Wheezing by this time, the wolf reached out a paw towards Cappy. Coughing up large amounts of blood, the Silver Gray wolf glared at the remaining Ham-Hams. "I will return. Whether it would be tomorrow, the next week, or month. I will return and kill you all." Then the Silver Gray's eyes rolled into the back of his head, and it died. Stan looked at it, his face wearing a confused expression.

"Cappy…? What? I thought the wolf could only die from swallowing gunpowder!" Stan began to rant. Cappy turned around, a malicious look on his face. His eyes were a deep, deep crimson. Taking the stick that killed the wolf in his paw, he held above his head.

"Die!" the capped one screamed, charging towards Stan. The tiger-striped hamster jumped out of the way, but Cappy managed to graze part of his leg. The cut was not deep, nor too wide. But it did sting like the Devil himself was throwing fire straight from Hell onto minor scrape. Cappy turned around, eyes shifting malevolently.

"Dude, take a chill pill!" Stan cried out, paws held up like he was about to get arrested. Stan struggled to escape the capped hamster's wrath, not surprisingly however, as his leg was in quite a bit of pain. But just as Cappy reached Stan, he stopped. It seemed as if he was hesitating to kill him. Stan chose to make his move right then, because waiting was beginning to slide on over to the 'risky' side. Cappy's red eyes turned normal, but only for a mere second. Slowly turning around, he began to charge at Hamtaro.

"You killed him!" screamed Cappy, his voice becoming awfully screechy. Hamtaro stared at the young hamster confused.

"What?" Hamtaro asked.

"YOU KILLED MY SAVIOR!" Cappy shrieked, waving the stick like a madman.
