The Story of Hamtaro- Ch.3
Hey everybody, sorry for the wait. I've been trying to write a story without supernatural powers and that hasn't been going so well. I also had to dump my first idea because it was going to be rated M. I had a sick mind when I taught that. If you want to know I'll tell you in the next chapter. Anyway on with the story.
The morning sun rose over the hideout where a lone boy was sitting outside. It had been two weeks since Hamtaro, Bijou, and Penelope arrived. Maxwell was trying to think about what Spat was planning.
"Why would Spat want to kidnap the Ribon family?" Maxwell said to himself. "More than likely, the fire was not a coincidence. The Chibimaru household was burned the day before the Ribons came. Something is not right with this picture." Maxwell continued to think when he was greeted by Sandy Torahamu(AN-sorry, realized I misspelled the name in the previous chapter). Sandy is Stan's twin sister. The main difference between the two was that Sandy wore a pink ribbon in her hair.
"Good morning Maxwell," Sandy greeted.
"Good morning Sandy," Maxwell responded. "What are you doing up so early?"
"Like, I was having a bad dream and I woke up," Sandy said a bit embarrassed. "Girls my age shouldn't have bad dreams."
"Nonsense," Maxwell said. "Everyone has bad dreams. Most people don't talk about them because it would make them feel weak."
"I guess so," Sandy replied, thinking of the dream.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Maxwell asked.
"Not really, but I dreamt that I lost a good friend," Sandy said turning away.
"Well, that a bad dream indeed," Maxwell said comforting Sandy. "Since Spat hasn't made a move in a while, I was thinking on taking everyone to the festival today."
"That's right," Sandy responded. "I totally forgot the Summer Festival was today."
"Okay, then it's settled," Maxwell said. "Today we are going to the festival. You should get some sleep."
"Okay," Sandy said as she walked away until she was alone. "One day, I will tell you how I feel."
As the sun raised more, everyone began to wake up. Maxwell told them to meet him outside for a special meeting after breakfast. As everyone gathered outside, Boss was the first one to ask a question. "What's going on Maxwell? Is it Spat?"
"No it's not that," Maxwell responded. "Actually, Spat hasn't been up to anything lately. The reason I called this meeting is to let you all know that we are going to the Summer Festival today."
"Are you serious?" Boss asked sounding angry. "We should be watching out for Spat's next move."
"I understand that," Maxwell said calmly. "I thought it would be a great way to relax for a while."
"That sounds a good idea," Bijou said. "I never attended to a festival before."
"Really, well I guess we could take a break," Boss said to Maxwell before turning to Bijou. "You know Bijou, I could show you around. If you wanted me to."
"I would really appreciate that Boss," Bijou said with a smile that made Boss's heart melt. "I can't wait."
After the plans were made, everyone gather outside again. The boys were wearing clothes that they "found" on a merchant ship that dock a month earlier. "I have to say," Boss said, "those foreign ships know how to make comfy clothes."
"You know," Stan said, "it's really nice to be able to not burn up."
"Alright everyone, do you remember who you will be going with?" Maxwell said to the two people talking about their clothes.
"Of course we do," Boss said hiding the fact he forgot. The only thing he remembered is that he was going with Bijou. Everything after that was a blur. "But for Hamtaro's sake, I think you should remind him."
"What are you talking about?" Hamtaro asked wearing a look of confusion. "I remember all the groups. The first group is Oxnard, Maxwell and Sandy, the second group is Pashmina, Penelope, and me, while the last group is you, Bijou and Stan."
"What do you mean me, Bijou and Stan?" Boss asked with extra emphasis on Stan.
"Well we were going in groups of three and Bijou already agreed to it," Maxwell answered the furious Boss. "Besides, I asked Bijou to give the guy who impresses her most a special prize."
"Really, what's the prize?" Boss asked.
"It's not for me to say, but I can say that it is going to blow you mind," Maxwell said calmly.
"What could it be?" Boss thought with delight. "Maybe I'll get a kiss or her hand in marriage. I can't wait."
"Is he alright?" Hamtaro asked.
"Don't worry," Maxwell said, "Boss is doing a lot of thinking right now."
Hey guys sorry about the wait. I blame myself for being so lazy to just split this chapter in half. Well though I'm not the best writer, I'm glad that I was able to post my stories. This story is going to have about four of five more chapters until the final chapter. Anyway, I would like to thank everyone who reviewed even though I'm too lazy thank you personally. If you like it or hate it, please review. Now to leave you with an analogy: Stories are like marshmallow, they get even better with flames cooking them.
