Chapter 1: Meet the Gang!

Flaky's Pov

Flaky… Flaky…

"M-mom?"

Flaky.

"Mom! Don't go!"

I will always be here for you. I won't leave you.

"Then why did you die?"

Flaky

"No."

Flaky.

"NO."

Flaky! Wake up…

"NO! Please stay!"

"FLAKY! GET UP!"

My eyes shot open at the sudden noise. My friend Cuddles was shaking me, my flakes dropping like crazy. I grabbed his arms to let him know I'm awake.

"I-I'm fine Cuddles." Our home, the forest, has been our home for our generations. Humans aren't very common as they were before 100 years ago and the animals are starting to evolve into their likeness. We've already had a couple wars and such, and rumor has it that some animals have been making planes, rockets, TV's, and cars. So we going along pretty fast. But Humans have cut down most of our home and we have to find a new area to live.

"Well you better be. Today is the day we have to go. We leave at noon." Cuddles tapped his wrist as if he had a watch. We have a little society here. We've been pretty good surviving. We all live together. Cuddles the yellow bunny basically the ringleader, Giggles the cute innocent pink chipmunk, Toothy the plain purple beaver, Sniffles the really smart blue anteater, Petunia the heart throbbing blue skunk, Nutty the irrational green squirrel, and me. The shy red Porcupine with dandruff.

"I kn- I know C-Cuddles." I got out of my little hammock bed. I went to the stump, this is where we meet usually and just talk and share gossip. Not much too share since there is only 7 of us. There are other creatures and animals here too but only us 7 really talk to each other. Giggles was there talking to Petunia. They are the best friends anyone could wish to have. They don't go anywhere without each other most of the time. They let me hang out with them. But I think they feel awkward with me just watching them talk.

But I went and sat over there with them like everyday.

"Oh hey Flaky." Giggles acknowledged and smiled brightly at me, but Petunia just sat there staring at me with this smug face. I laughed my signature laugh and waved and sighed. They went back to talking to whatever they were saying. I had a sudden urge to go to the bathroom. I got up and walked to the edge of the trees to where our bathroom is situated. But the hollow we had was full and it stunk.

"Ewww…" I plugged my nose and kept walking further away. Further and further from the settlement.

Cuddles' Pov

Okay we have food, medicine, water... I looked at the things we had, all bundled up in leaves and vines. "I think we are good! Everyone here?"

"Yea!" They all yelled at the same time. Most of the critters are coming with us to our new home. Wherever it is. Sadly some are staying behind because of sickness and age. But we have keep moving.

"Well then lets get a mov-"

"WAIT!" Nutty was running towards us with a whole bunch of nuts in his arms. He was wheezing really hard. "Okay I just had to get my nuts! You know an eagle could of just… Swooped down! And… And… Crack it open and carry us off in the nut!"

"I'm pretty sure eagle's don't eat nuts, Nutty." Petunia said with a little sass.

"You never know…"

"Well lets go then." We trudged off with the belongings on our backs, leaving our old home behind.

Flaky's Pov

I just got done peeing, but here's some bad news. I lost my way. I went too deep in the forest! And it is way past noon because the sun had passed the highpoint already and is going down. Maybe it's 1:00 now. Or even 2:00! I am so worried. I can't help but let some comforting tears fall on my cheeks. I look into the river I'm kneeling by and just look at my reflection.

Crack!

What was that? Sounded like a twig. I hear snickering. I look behind me but I don't see anything. I then see a bushy green striped tail. Scared I start crawling back. But I forget the river is behind me and I fall in it. I start panicking, the current is so strong it's pushing me further down. I start thinking I'm never going to see my friends again, I might as well die. Then air. That's all I feel, air. I open my eyes and see I have fallen off a waterfall.

I'm so confused right now. I see who that green tail belonged to now. Two raccoons. They are peering over the fall looking shocked. One was wearing a fedora hat and he pushed what looked like his brother angrily. They started climbing down. The water now beginning to sting my eyes was getting progressively louder as I fell. I landed in it with a loud slap. I did better not panicking this time and swam my way to a shore.

I spit up some water, and started to cry softly as I realized I'm lost beyond reason and I will never see my friends again… Are those footsteps behind me? I look behind myself once more too see the one with a fedora with a bat raised hit me on the head.

I land back on the ground with a hard thud and everything starts getting blurry. Black spots are dancing across my eyes as I'm slowly dragged off by my captors. But… What is that? It… It looks like someone in army attire trailing us?

... I can't take it anymore. I let the darkness envelope me.

So I'm pretty sure we know who THAT is. SOOOOO… Review perhaps? Clicky Clicky that blue button please?
