Chapter 2- Friend......?
Man. I'd never seen so much green and yellow and brown in one place. Waite. Scratch that. Anyhow, what I found on the other side of the annoying doors was a forest! A honest to hyne forest! Trees, bushes, leaves, the whole deal. I walked bit into this strange forest and soon discovered that animals were there, too. How did I discover that? Well, I didn't. The bottom of my foot did. Eww. Hyne, did that smell nasty. It started to make me dizzy. So, I walked over to the bushes and pulled off a big leaf and got it off. But that smell will take days get off! I tossed the foul smelling leaf into the bushes and started to walk off, but as soon as I heard that leaf plop, I felt as if I was in bad trouble. When it hit, the bushes rustled. There was something in them! I turned back and walked slowly to the bushes. I got closer. And closer. and closer. Thy rustled again and I jumped back. I thought 'forget this' and held up my lantern. The bush begins to glow and lifts right out of the ground, exposing the creature. It was ugly, to say the least. No eyes from what I could tell. Just big, long arms, a big mouth and a fat stomach. His belly reminds me of my uncle Dan. He had a big belly, too. But that was from the whine we made every summer. He loved that whine.
Back to the monster. He was big, much bigger then me. Big surprise. Alot of things are bigger then me. It makes me sad sometimes. Anyway, the thing didn't notice me beacuse it was chewing on another one just like it. Execpt this one was in many different peices. And I thought the poop smelled bad. I waddled over to him and waved. "Hi......?" I asked him. I was one of the few Tonberrys that could actually speak, but it wasn't very good. Just low, quick, raspy mummer, but it worked for me. I quickly regreted being able to talk when the thing looked at me. I think it looked at me. It's hard to tell when it dosen't have eyes. I waved, hoping to make friends, but he was just rude. He screeched at me and tryed to bite me. Well, I wasn't going to stand for that. I couldn't stand for that, because he knocked me over. I landed on my rear end, but quickly got up. Now was the time for that unknown Tonberry speed. I stuffed my knife in my sleeve and dashed off. Never run with sharp objects in your hands, folks. It's very dangerous.
I knew the thing was giving chase because I looked behind me and saw him. He was nearly on my tail. Really. He nearly stepped on my tail! I love my tail very much. It's my only friend, now that I left the ruins. And that really pissed me off. I stopped and turned with a mean glint in my eye. He has insulted the honor of my tail. Now, let hell rain on his green head! After I pulled out my knife, I held up my lantern and stopped him in his tracks. I sat down and waved my hand over my lantern, making a book appear in front of me. I opened it and flipped through the pages, trying to find the picture of this thing. Ah ha! Here it is. Grat. Slash under left jaw appendage. Death is instant. Just what I needed to know. I closed the book and it disappeared in a puff. I waddled over to him and pulled out my kinfe. But I couldn't reach where I wanted. Shrugging, I tossed my knife at him and just missed the death spot. So I recalled it. It flew through the air, turned around and I steped to the side. When it came back, it slashed just where I had been aiming. Never underestimate the power of a Tonberry. That's what it'll get you. I didn'y enjoy killing it, but it was either him or me. I waved my lantern, causing his body to disappear into the ground. At least I could give him a proper burial.
Picking up my knife and lantern, I put my knife back in my sleeve and continued my walk into this man made forest. How did I know it was mad made? Well, one, it's in this huge thing I snuck into and two, it just didn't smell right. I walked for long time. At least it seemed long. When you have short legs, even a yard can seem like a mile. I walked. And I walked. and I walked. And guess what else it I did? I walked! I gave tired sigh, but I lifted my head again at a sound. It was water. Come to think of it, I was pretty thirsty. I followed the sound and came to a little metal bridge that ran over a small pond. I was never as happy to see water as I was at that moment. I walked over there and sat down, letting my feet hang over the side. I waved my hand over my lantern and called upon a cup. It appeared and dipped into the water and came back into my hand. I was able to drink it down in one gulp. Ah. Refresing. So refreshing that I didn't hear a person walk up and hit me.
"How did a Tonberry get into the Garden!?" It was female and I looked to see who it was. It was one of the humans from the ruins I saw. The one wih the whip. She hit me again with the handle of her whip.
"Go on! Shoo. Before the Garden starts to move again."
I just looked up at her with tears forming in my eyes. I didn't do anything. Why did she hit me? I started to cry, making a little sound that was something between a whine and a honk.
"Oh. I'm sorry." She said, sitting next to me, pulling me into her lap and hugging me. That really hurt. She didn't have hit me. She could of just tapped me on the shoulder. I was able to stop crying, but I still sniffed every now and then.
"How did you get into the Garden, hon?" Garden. That's what this thing is. Oh. Makes no sense. Well, seeing as how I couldn't talk to well, I just said "Snuck..." I think I surprised her.
"You can talk?!" She gasped. What's the big deal? I just nodded, but shook my head." Not well...." That was probably the most words I ever said. Two words. Wow. I'm so proud of myself. She just hugged me tighter and sighed. "I'm sorry for hitting you. little guy." She pulled a away for a bit and grabbed something behind her. A little brown sack. "I didn't feel like eating lunch in the cafeteria today." She pulled something out something, but it was something I had never seen before. "You want a bite of my sandwitch?" What's a sandwitch? A witch made from sand?
She undid the clear stuff around it and tore off a peice. "It's ham." She told me. She held it out, offering it to me. "Go on." Not to sure of it, I took the peice of 'sandwitch' and looked it over. Then I looked at her." Eat...?" I asked her, pointing to my mouth.
She nodded and smiled. Wow. Her smile sure is pretty. She was realy pretty al together. Blond hair tied up in a bun with a few strands hanging over her face. Her blue eyes were really shiny and big. I took a bite of the food she gave me. Not bad. Not great, but not bad. There was something in it that I couldn't quite place, but it made me want more. I jumped off her lap and set the food on the ground. I pulled the bread off first and bit it. No, that wasn't it. Next, I took off the ham. No, no that either. There was only a peice of yellow...something and another slice of bread. So, I picked up the yellow...thing and took a bite. DEAR HYNE! That's delicious! I ate it all and looked back at the girl, who was staring down at me, looking very confused." You like cheese, don't ya?" She asked smiling. Cheese. I never had it before. All we Tonberry live off in the runis are the weeds that grow there. Boy, I missed weed. I sat down next to her and she wrapped her arm around me. "You're gonna be my new friend. But don't tell anyone, okay? We can't have people knowing I'm keeping a monster as a pet." I nodded, compleatly understanding her and went back to eating my part of the sandwitch. That's when I realized. This is my new home.
